"Dark Future: Blood Red States" did adapt board game mechanics to a different style. Incidentally it was also a Games Workshop adaption.

Fun fact, dark Angel Terminator teams literally have a squads of serfs who entire job is to get them out of holes or hallways when their big chunky bodies either fall through to get stuck. The mental image of a chapter serf going "coming my lord!" With a forklift is just the funniest thing in the world to me.

It also shakes off the more contemporary habit of portraying the Space Marines as "serious heroes of the Imperium", and reaffirms the 1st edition 40K intent of "the Imperium is a joke, a brutal regime headed by incompetent commanders, whose great champions are barely controlled psychos in power armor". It makes perfect sense from the standpoint of satire to portray the most elite Space Marines of a chapter as needing regular saving from holes or tight doorways.

That's misinformation memes people have spread thanks to one passage and many stupid "lore" KZreadrs. It concerns Daellon and Telemenus, two marines new to Deathwing. Both are still getting the hang of termie armour and Daellon briefly forgets he's not wearing regular power armour like he's used to and as such can't do certain things anymore. Following passage is from a Dark Angels trilogy. ‘Some kind of sub-level here,’ reported Daellon. ‘Descending.’ ‘Wait!’ yelled Telemenus, but his warning came too late. The audio pick-ups brought the sound of splintering woods and crumbling ferrocrete followed by an almighty crash. Daellon cursed without pause over the vox. ‘Report,’ barked Arbalan. ‘Brother Daellon misjudged the load bearing of some internal stairs, brother-sergeant,’ said Telemenus, trying not to laugh. For once he was glad somebody else was attracting the negative scrutiny. There was a chuckle from Cadmael and a sigh from Arbalan. ‘Daellon, can you climb out?’ asked the sergeant. ‘Negative, a three metre drop at least. The floor will not hold my weight to pull myself up.’ ‘No threats detected,’ Telemenus added, his auspex sensors encompassing the long row of huts. ‘Understood,’ said Arbalan. He sounded impatient. ‘Daellon, remain in place, I will signal for an armoury extraction team. Telemenus, rejoin the squad. Armoury extraction teams exist in all chapters and they're servitors with some serfs overseen by techmarines. Their entire job is to recover vehicles, armour, weapons etc after a battle to be repaired and brought back to full working use. It makes sense to call them for a situation like this. Falling through floors doesn't happen everyday so they weren't made for that one job like people claim in memes

TLDR: "This game didn't make me physically ill, so it was worse than its prequel."

Codex Tyranids came out in 1995, and Genestealers are listed, as are cults. Retconned directly in the codex by saying they were first found on the moons of Ymgarl, and it wasn't until later that they were seen fighting in Tyranid hordes that they were properly classified. Also included the complete genetic aspect of Genestealer spread, removing the Xenomorph bursting part of the life cycle.

Yeah, that´s as it was stated on 2nd editioon. In the 1st edition Rogue Trader book, they´re listed as different alien species, being then the genestealers some sort of giger alien ripoff, and the tyranids a curious mix between dinosaur and insect. Throught the 1st edition, that concept was remade and all they were re-designed, getting all them the same giger-biomechanoid style from then until now. At end of 1st edition, with the boxed games and sets Advanced Space Crusade and Tyranid Attack, the final miniatures were already an unified race. Then, with 2nd edition , the 1st to feature codex books for all armies, their lore was definitely defined until now.

I still kinda feel like while this video clearly did understand exactly how to talk about this...well, game I've never played so I can't exactly go to bat for it in my following point, I feel like a lot of the understandable points are lost in a sea of wishing it were like this more traditional style purely for the sake of a video game having a pure board game style without realizing...it's a video game, they shouldn't have to be restricted to just purely adapting every exact minute detail of another game as long as the spirit is there. What I mean is, it comes off as if Space Hulk games *have* to be like the cookie cutter Yu-Gi-Oh games we've gotten since the mid 2000's where all they do is perfectly use every single normal card game rule. No Forbidden Memories, no Sacred Cards, no silly Dungeon Dice Monsters spinoff, no it *MUST* be World Championship 20XX for it to be special. And to be frank...Forbidden Memories may be a nigh-unbeatable grindy as all getout piece of shit with one of the hardest endgame gauntlets I've ever seen in gaming history, but it's STILL fondly remembered to this day. And it was made in an era where the card game wasn't nailed down yet, at least not in Japan cause it sure was by the time we got any of those games. I get the point of it, and that I believe it's far more impressive to nail down an anxiety-inducing *board game* of all things to accidentally make a strategic horror game in video game form than dropping a card game's rules into a video game, but that's not my point. My point is all the disappointment of this game seems to just stem from "it's not traditional, I don't like it" even though it ended up being *more* creative as a result, which...I would think should be celebrated for still managing to keep an anxious slow trudge through a giant hellscape ship. ..........Also, one unrelated thing. I'm confused as hell if this game even has a life bar. I know the first game doesn't, you're not supposed to be able to know that at a glance, but... *there clearly is a health bar* in the top left. And yet you can get insta-killed at seemingly random at melee range, but any ranged attack you take actually depletes it...and it regenerates almost as fast as a CoD game. So what the hell is even the point of that bar when you can't die at range and melee deaths are instant and a pure dice roll? But back to the main point. I think I can kinda get *why* there's this massive jaded attitude here. The first game did its thing and that style was abandoned since instead of giving it another go at some point while also catering to the people who wanted it to be more approachable. It'd be like if, say, Mega Man went from MM1 to Battle Network and only Battle Network ever got sequels. ...Might be more extreme (or xtreme, hah) but BN is on the mind with the collection out soon, but I think a slightly more appropriate one would be going from MM1 to X1 and only X gets sequels, which...kinda did happen for a brief time in the PS2 era.

Also terminators can teleport, though that rarely gets used in Space Hulk lore as far as I know.

To put it bluntly: Terminator Armor gives you a chance, however small, to survive close combat with a Genestealer. Powered armor (or anything lighter) gives you zero chance. That combined with being able to bring more firepower to lower the chance of having to be in close combat with one, is why Terminator armor ends up being king for space hulk work. (It helps that Space Marines only let their first company, their most veteran marines, wear it.)

The first space hulk was just amazing! One of my fave gaming memories. Im actually very surprised they havent brought out a modern version of the original. Deathwing was incredible too bit its hard to beat the original

RE: Terminators being more agile. I think that makes perfect sense in-lore. After the massacre of the Blood Angels, their leadership wisely determined very heavy armour wasn't practical against the Genestealer threat. So they started deploying lighter more flexible suits. New combat doctrine, don't even try to engage the Genestealers in CQC. Who shoots first, wins.

Really nice, I've been waiting for this one. Praised be the Omnissiah

One thing I notice is that in the manual, they didn't mention The Emperor or even Sanguinius or much of the Warhammer lore.

So sad they didn't continue this style of gameplay I really love the lore in this specific game

are you familiar with teh board wargames Achtung Spitfire and Over the Reich? they had pc/mac conversions in the 90s and were done very well also have you looked at the original Space Crusade board game and its various computer conversions?

Your statement on gen stealers is fair as they were not originally turned into at their own separate species later revealed to be part of the tyranid hive fleet when the tournaments were invented in late 2nd edition.

I know this is kind of pedantic... but adaption is used to describe the process of how something adapts to a new environment or circumstance. Adaptation is used to describe the final summation of the changes. So this is a review of a video game adaptation of a board game, while the differences between the board game and the video game would be individual adaptions. I really like the review overall, but my brain stuttered every time you said adaption instead of adaptation xD

Love the vid and your comitery :)

Might I suggest "Warhammer: Shadow of the Horned Rat" sounds like something up your alley., but then most people know of it from the game being sorta meme'd on with the "Ravandils Quest" videos by Karl the Derainged of TTS fame.

Hey everyones entitled to their opinion....no matter how wrong they are :) I loooooooved it on the 3DO, one of the most immersive games at the time for me. And fun.

So, an actual response to this whole "Games don't have to be fun" schlock. The journalists who push this do not do so to try elevate dark or serious games as art. Rather they do so for the sole purpose of stating that "the players are wrong and we are right," especially when the audience resoundly rejects a game because of something they did not enjoy. The Mass Effect 3 ending, and the journalists rallying to its defense while the audience shouted against it. The Last of Us 2 having a completely mean-spirited, hateful story that killed off a fan favorite character and then forced the player to assume the role of his killer for the majority of the game. Etc. The entire argument, as I've seen it, when dissected past wordplay and effort to claim artistic integrity or creativity, actually boils down to "fork over your cash for these things you don't enjoy and be grateful!" Typically delivered by snotty, holier than thou types who think because they work in game journalism, their opinion is more valid than mine by default. I'm a functioning adult with a full time job, and only have a few hours a day after work to unwind, and I want to have fun and relax when I turn on a game or movie. When I reach the end credits of a game and don't feel good about doing so, the game has failed its purpose for existence. I would rather button mash my way through a dozen more Dynasty Warriors games than touch one more overly depressing and mean-spirited destruction of characters and settings I used to love.

As you like squads of dudes fighting aliens in claustrophobic industrial areas may I sugges you give "Incubation: Time is Running Out" a try? It's Battle Isle rather than WH40k but it always felt like it was inspired by Space Hulk.

2:09 - Ok, the idea that games don't need to be fun has always been something that's bothered me. I'm not saying that you shouldn't make artsy games, or games with extreme difficulty, just that at the end of the day it's still a game and should be fun at least to its target audience. That being said, fun is subjective, and people enjoy different kinds of games. I like bullet hells, particularly ones that _aren't_ Touhou (nothing against it, it's just that my introduction to the genre was Jamestown and I just tend to lean more towards the "constant flow" type of gameplay other bullet hell games have rather than the more "called shot" style of Touhou), but that's a very unapproachable genre due to its extreme, pattern-recognition based difficulty and most people would find those games frustrating. Space Hulk, of course, is similar in that, at least for the Space Marine player, it is a very difficult experience. It's difficult in a different way, focusing more on strategy and thinking on the fly, but it still has that challenging appeal and dare I say _fun_ for those who enjoy that sort of thing. As for the artsy side, you can still tell a deep, emotional story in a game while simultaneously implementing fun, solid gameplay. I feel like in some cases, the "Games don't have to be fun" argument is used less in good faith and more to excuse poor playability in heavily story-driven games. And in such a situation where the developer tries to use it as an excuse, IMHO they probably should have made an interactive novel instead. Same goes for atmospheric games, which Space Hulk falls under - even though it's not story driven, it _is_ focused on creating a horror environment. In short, I don't agree with the whole "games don't need to be fun" thing, but I believe that there's merit in saying that games don't have to be fun for _everyone._ Fun is not synonymous with mass appeal or "cheap toy", as much as the hipster crowd would try to argue otherwise. Do you enjoy the experience, even if you may feel other emotions alongside that enjoyment? Because that is what fun really is.

It's funny you should mention the main difference between Space Hulk 1 & 2 as taking out some of the board-gamey elements to make it more approachable and more fun - that seems to be almost exactly the same thing they did between the the Space Hulk remake (now removed from the Steam store) and Deathwing, some 20 years later. The more things change...

The turn timer in space hulk is needed otherwise the safest thing to do is heavily use overwatch and the game comes to a crawl. The space marine player needs motivation to get to the objective.

While I do have the PS1 version somewhere, I simply cannot play it worth a dang, compared to the PC adaptation which unfortunately needed some patching after release and which I have since lost to the warps of time, never to be recovered (unless GW somehow figures a way to get the rights back from Electronic Arts, or teams up with them, to release on GoG or something like that.) Relatedly, I suspect the reason the game engine (in either form) has ever been returned to by digital adaptations, is because the engine-design is proprietary to Electronic Arts. Other EA games from that era have been re-releasing, even with remakes, in recent years, but the combined rights problem may be remaining unresolved as to how the revenue and responsibilities would be split.

I would like to see ya do videos on other video games based off of games workshop has made. Like mordheim and necromunda

Closest thing we got to cowboys in 40k is probably ad mech. The most yeehaw chapter imo is probably the white scars but it doesn’t *feel* like a good fit.

Space marine cats would get my spouse into the game

My self esteem has improved immeasurably!

This is a great game on the 3DO and PC. Unfortunately you've elected to review the highly inferior Playstation version (maybe this should have a disclaimer). I'd love to see you do a re-review of this on something that wasn't a lousy port (Sega Saturn is also in the bucket of lousy ports). The main difference is the UI is vastly more advanced on the 3DO and PC (yes, the little 3DO that was basically inferior at everything and less powerful than the Playstation is actually better looking in this instance) and the psykers cause visual aberrations. The other key aspect you seem to have overlooked is how only the surviving squad members from your previous mission get to progress with you to the next mission - maybe this was removed from the Playstation version as well. I guess the key here is to know the material you're reviewing, although I think I commented on your other video specifically mentioning the 3DO version, so maybe also read the comments. This review certainly does a disservice to the game.

Gotta shovel out that C O N T E N T.

The Iron Hands are clearly the most metal of the Space Marine Chapters.

This was great!

White Scars baby, the YEEHAW'est of them all, cuz they ride BIKES, and HORSES!

Still don't know what 40k is till this day

What people don’t get about the 40k lore is that much if the established canon is not as old as the games. First and second edition have wildly different lore and the board games related to then at the time often contradicted each other. It really wasn’t until third edition that there was an effort to get the canon in sync across media and make the effort to really expand the lore.

The most yee haw is either white scars or space wolves imo

There are actually a lot of modern day games that are adaptation or PC ports of board games, but they are not as thematic as OG spacehulk

I was really hoping this game was a Doom clone.

The most yee haw SMC is, without any doubt, the White Scars

Khornate markings on library doors... kay

Didn't know 40k has been around that long.

Space Marines have been shooting space gribblies since 1987.

The Deathwing are the most yee-ha. This is an objective fact, as the Deathwing Chapter can trace its roots back to the Lakota Sioux tribe of ancient Terra.

The most yeehaw is the White Scars chapter.

I've got no nostalgia for Space Hulk. But I did like Space Hulk: Vengence of The Blood Angels on PS1. Didn't know it was 1st on 3DO, I only found a PS1 copy a few years ago. I'd like to see a modern take or remake of this classic. But personally? I'd like to see a new single player focused FPS starring the Imperial Guardsmen like the Cadian shocktroopers or the Death Korp of Krieg. Still haven't gotten that...
