Is Battlesector Worth It? A Comprehensive Review
Вставка
- Опубліковано 3 сер 2024
- Is Battlesector 40k worth it? This turn based strategy game looks gorgeous, and brings a decent main campaign with surprisingly impressive voice acting. It may not stray far from a basic turn based formula, but it will be a serious consideration for fans of the Warhammer 40k universe, especially the Blood Angel Space Marines and Tyranids.
This video starts with a 60s TLDR overview before delving into the detail of how the game plays, and who will find it appealing.

This is basically the closest thing to table top 40k you can get
Yup! I found some of the balance was off, but overall very pleased
Female custodies and all?😂😂😂😂😂🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮
Table top simulator- "am I a joke to you?"
@@ironindustries9258 not user friendly at all. Which losses major points. If you could download it, then download a 40k pack and it installed all on its own with a double click and then had instructions that were easy to follow in the app to lead you to playing then sure… but it doesn’t
Good review and video! c: also I’m pretty sure in the last dev vlog they mentioned making more narrative campaigns in the future which will be really interesting to see
@jacobrigg5095 Thank you! I was glad to hear them confirm more campaigns as I was a bit disappointed the dlc's don't currently include more campaign content.
Fair review. The game has its shortcomings but somehow I regularly find myself coming back to it, specially to replay the main campaign, which is very fun.
@dte1096 thank you, I'm glad you think so. What do you think of the daemonic incursion and planetary supremacy modes? They're pretty cool but not fleshed out enough for me personally...
@@twiglets2 I agree with you on that. I played daemonic incursion once or twice but I didn't quite like it. Planetary supremacy I found to be more engaging, and is a good way to play against the new factions that the developers have introduced (like orks and Tau) if you are not willing to buy their DLC. But yes, those two modes feel more as a way to spend some time while we wait for the new upcoming campaign(s) that were recently announced, instead of full-fleshed experiences.
just met ur channel and i love it man, ur reviews are very honest and detailed
@raknnn thank you my friend, that means a lot!
Imperial guards is coming! Hopefully with campaign
@@jackiecheng7209 really? Looking forward to that!
awesome review! looking forward to the release of chaos space marines
@@ChosenJN thank you! I hope it was useful
I’m really hoping one day we get some type of army painter!
This may be the most underrated WH40k game out there, it's definitely the best turn based strategy game of the franchise right now and it keeps getting better.
@@GaiasWunderkind I was pleased to see the level of support / new content the game is still receiving. Just slightly disappointed there aren't more factions really
@@twiglets2 There will be new factions comming, they already announced it. Next in line is: Astra Militarum
just picked this up on sale, good review!
@@oozingtulip1534 awesome, let us know if you enjoy it, feedback on the comments is always useful for others!
Great video! Does the Blood Angels army here feature the death company or sanguinary guard? The BA are my favourite chapter though given the recent content announcement, I might wait until after those have been implemented before buying. Just picked up Chaos Gate and been really enjoying that.
Base game blood angels have death company and dlc have sanguinary guard
Nice review as always.
@Metaz Thank you my friend
Got to admit...im not that impressed by the game but i am impressed by the review itself ^^
You have earned another subscriber for the glory of the youtube gods or whatnot! ^^
@@Strash_ many thanks my friend, I appreciate it and hope you find future videos useful!
thanks for this made me reasses that i really wanted this game ill hold off a couple of years when the price is even lower.
@kheelahselai1567 you are welcome! Overall a good game, but always worth waiting for a good sale.
I was thinking of waiting for it to be bundled with DLC but... if the DLC only effects those skirmish campaigns, and I don't know if I'll dig it (Dawn of War's sandbox campaign had multiple scripted and memorable missions in it, in contrast), why bother with the DLC I guess? I think I'll get it for $12usd with the Humble Choice.
@R3GARnator honestly that seems as wise move to me. The DLCs are kind cool but the main campaign is where 90% of the value is, it's alright!
So is it like dawn of war or is there some different mechanics or something like that??
@omarsamir1461 dawn of war is real time, building a base and an economy. Battlesector is turnbased so no eco or base, just deploying your army and taking turns with your opponent like chess. Similar vibes though!
@@twiglets2 I get the impression it's like Sanctus Reach with better graphics?
@@omarsamir1461 very much so!
Thank you for a good review. I would love it if you could comment on competency of AI. Also please consider doing an updated Dune review.
@LorenTR Thank you! The AI is adequate. Bearing in mind I have yet to see ai that I would say is genuinely good.
I would like to make an update dune review, watch this space!
Tau faction = enough reason to play it.
@@pipebomber04 I'm not a Tau man, but they are admittedly very cool
so weird i was thinking about playing this game today
@GG21188 My mind reading device is working!
I wanted to like this game and having put 24 or sohours into it i can honestly say...its boring, nice review though thanks twiglets2 mmm! my favorite munchie.
@gunhojput thank you for your honesty! Did you try the daemonic and planetary supremacy modes? I didn't spend much time with them so curious how much longevity they have
@@twiglets2 No i became disillusioned with the whole thing, it now sits in my libery hidden from view imo so much promise wasted. sorry i cannot give a more helpful comment, and its a shame one cannot fully playtest these games before purchase hence why videos like yours are so helpful, saying that many videos show the pros and cons but you dont get the true game till you purchase, yes you can play a demo but these are slanted heavily in favor of the game, then when you realise you dont like it its too late because you already wasted 30 odd squid, i think its called marketing and we fall for it all the time. love to all.
1€ on instant gaming, worth!
@@ZeZeko bargain!
lack of coop and only 1v1 makes it very limiting. i'll stick to gladius
@user-bs8sz8lo9v Gladius is next on my hit list, would you recommend?
@@twiglets2 I would recommend. If you like turn based combat and Warhammer its really good. I own all DLC's and you can mix match multiple match ups (like in Civ). Sometimes i just wish the maps would be even bigger haha
@@Neckstabba awesome;
If you like xcom you will like this
@@richardhilliard5637 agreed!
@twiglets2 Started Gears Tactics this morning, you should check it out.
Should have been rts instead of turn based
@@K.Marx48 but they already have an era Warhammer....oh wait 😭
@@twiglets2 After Dow III failure no more Warhammer rts sadly, anyway this game looks interesting even if it's turn based. I don't like the amount of pricy dlcs though, and the base game itself is already quite pricy.
@@K.Marx48 that's exactly the issue with this game. If you like blood angels and Tyranids then fine as they are in the base game, but if you like any other faction you either pay more or they aren't there at all! Luck of the draw really...
"Strong visuals"
Haha ok.
@@photogasm5 the character models look great up close, certainly when compared to other Warhammer games
good jesus god, please make your mic less rapey sounding
