Warhammer 40,000: Inquisitor - Martyr

when on biig sale can be a bit fun, will definitely become monotonous over time though

Great fun. I'm enjoying the new class. A really good value if you like ARPGs.

Played lots of ARPGs in my gaming career, but I have to say this is one of the better ones. Everything just feels right and combat is amazing, challenging, and exciting!

Worth the buy whether it's on sale or not!

Not a huge an of the new class but I've only tried one arch-type and still in the lower levels so we will see!

I recommend the base game, however *DO NOT* purchase the DLCs as they don't add enough to justify the price. They are mostly just cosmetics or repetitive missions that don't add much to the story. The Battle Sister class is fun so maybe consider that one separately if you enjoy the game.

Also FYI the new Hierophant class is not included in the "Definitive Edition" - so how exactly is it "definitive"?

it has a rich story and fun action

I'm surprised how good this is. Never liked this type of games, but 40k lore is making this enjoyable.

For fans of Diablo-style loot fiestas and Warhammer40k.
Slower than Diablo and PoE, you will not be zooming around the map killing 6000 monsters a minute (to me that's a good thing, but you make up your own mind), but with fantastic 40k atmosphere and satisfying, meaty gameplay.
Overall fantastic game for fans of both this genre and Warhammer40k.
8/10

This game does boltguns right, must play if you are a fan of ARPGs or Warhammer 40k in general. I've only got good things to say, I guess my only complaint would be slight FPS slowdowns when fighting bosses.

Nice game.
Proper atmosphere (something that diablo lost long time ago) for 40k.
All in all pleasant action rpg in good setting.

If you're into arpg's this one is a fun hub based one.
Having played Diablo, grim dawn, torchlight infinite, PoE I would have to put the difficulty right around torchlight infinite since it's more complex than Diablo but less complex than PoE

Love the new class. Pretty decent action RPG, some story elements a good amount of things to do.

Of all the ARPGs set in the WH40k universe where you play an Inquisitor, this is my favourite. In comparison to other non Inquisitor WH40k ARPGs, its not Grim Dawn, but still, its excellent.

sadly mid. I love 40k lore the story is actually good but the voice acting is either incredibly awful or pretty good. visually its nice, sound is almost always subpar across the board. you don't really feel stronger at any point in the game you are able to stomp everything the entire game. leveling feels almost worthless with you getting like 2% more damage per point. Leveling only matters for better gear and for your class exclusive skills which are either completely worthless or incredibly busted. I wouldnt pay full price for this I would give it a thumb in the middle if steam would let me but its for sure worth it on sale.

My first entry into the Warhammer universe and it's a Diablo like game so I'm hooked and happy to start here. Very fun co-op and unique class types *cough* Battle Mommy's *cough*

In some ways, I like it better than my space marine 2...I would have preferred this combat style but on the new game. Maybe not 2D with 3D graphics, but the way the combat moves are set up. I was late to this game...you like Diablo and the franchise, GET THIS GAME.

How did I not know about this game!? Its a blast and a nice change to the Diablo style games. Pick it up on discount (I got it for 17.99 Definitive Edition) and its worth every penny! Been loving the 40k Universe and this game has so much lore you wont want to stop playing

The combat is competently made. However, as a game based around upgrading loot there are too many currencies, buffs, stats, and attributes. These are not gradually introduced to the player but dumped on right from the start. As far as I can tell there is no explanation of what these mean. This is a common problem with all the Warhammer games. In a fantasy RPG I know what +5 to fire damage means, and I know more fire damage usually helps with zombies. In Warhammer I have no idea what +5 to zizandargob means or why I should pick that vs. another equipment that has +8 to foofoonob. It makes the upgrade cycle kind of meaningless. In addition, even with boosted difficulty in missions the game is too easy so I have no incentive to upgrade to begin with.

Bless these game creators. i love all their content and would buy full price for every system cant say the same for other game creators but only a few. Thank all of you Warhammer creator Team i know i can be an ass but i love everything about warhammer 40k. even if i,m seen as a heretic For the Emperor. Gemini Chapter out! oh i own this on Xbox and beat it too goodness i had alot work into lol starting over is like walking up the steepest hill or something at times. any hoot thanks again.

Story lines are interesting. Moral alignment is interesting. Very good game largely faithful to Games Workshop cannon. Can be repetative.

Diablo + 40K = A real good time. There's tons of content and classes to choose from and the offline mode is like the cherry on top.

A must have for any Warhammer or ARPG fan.

I bought the game in early availability, then bought the complete edition. Then we had to pay for the next DLC's again... This is a joke :(
And now, on November 12, 2024, another DLC has been released and you have to pay for it.

Game 9/10
Studio Politics 2/10

Really fun game.

This was my introduction to ARPG's. The game is great in explaining how to play in bite size pieces and doesn't overwhelm you with options at the start.

Defo worth it for a 40k fan and a great game for any ARPG enjoyers

Nice and easy dopamin rusher with 40K look and feel.
Perfect for enjoying brainless gory grinding sessions 😍

Do you like 40k? Do you like Diablo? If both are a yes, just buy this game. I really enjoy it but I will say that the really fun characters are all DLC.

If you want a 'Perfect 7/10' this is it.

There is an Offline mode. You can chose to play through any of the previous seasons and earn their respective awards. There are 3.5 campaigns -with another on the way- all with some great 40K lore and it captures the vibes really well. Large, straightforward skill tree but dont expect to make your flamer also shoot plasma orbs. Flat out the best crafting system in an ARPG. The cover mechanics takes some getting used to and can often be ignored however, using it properly opens up more builds on higher difficulties. No real end game besides get stronger to do harder missions but there is a fair bit of options between which stronger missions you are doing. Tile sets are fairly limited and maps pretty straightforward but for the most part you are on battleships in space so straight kind of makes sense. The vibe is achieved.

I can promise you, even if it ends up not being your cup of tea, you WILL walk away with quite a few features and systems that you wish other ARPGs would adopt.

If you are having visual issues you are struggling to pin down, I recommend turning off any client side post process and enabling AA and what have you in your GPUs control panel. The "full screen" is fake full screen and the game released before frame generation existed so be sure to turn off any frame gen for the game profile while you are in there. I am pretty sure the npcs death explosions were animated in 30fps and kind of stick out. Turning the "physics objects" slider down in the config makes that less obvious.

Ragna van Wynter can get it

Game is great very smooth and the story is amazing

Great Diablo style ARPG. There's some jank to it but once you work out the kinks it's great.

hellasious death dealing with a sardonic skeptical "tude condesending to all but shows why
its really alot of fun bottom line

First thing: It is not the best ARPG around. Still, it catches the atmosphere of 40k universe faithfully, surprisingly well, even. I liked the main plot, characters, enemies, weaponry, combat, art style and music. Nothing felt out-of-place. Difficulty is customizable for each mission. Crafting system is pretty powerful. Gameplay is uneven, some classes are vastly more fun to play than others.

It has some drawbacks: Excel (too many tables, tabs and menus), subpar leveling and progression experience, mediocre endgame, class and equipment balance.

I don't think I would play it for thousands of hours (like I did with GD), but for its money it is a nice ARPG game, doubly so for 40k fans.

very cool atmosphere and story driven play. i still feel like i'm pretty early in the game and there's lots ahead of me.

6 hours into the game and I am bored to a point I had to uninstall from the game the constant repetitive kill everything in sight missions in the main story .... I had such high hopes for this game when I started thanks to Rouge Trader.

It's a more linear Diablo with maps from point A to point B simple as that. Maps are a little bit linear, but it's still pretty fun. It takes a while to figure it out the math of the loot, but once you get it is a ton of fun to use the combinations. There's no much to say, all the factions of chaos will show up here SLANEESH, TZEENCH, KHORNE, NURGLE, all of them, since Inquisitors are investigators in Warhammer 40lk. You gonna have the main campaign plus a bazillion of extra content and extra side stories with meaning to complete. All the seasons are available from the get go. You can choose and begin to enjoy. There's no timed seasons, you can choose whatever you like and you don't need to be afraid to someday the game shutting down the servers, there's a total offline mode. You can choose right away before launching. To me Its 8/10

The game's a pretty good & fun ARPG/hack & slash. Most DLCs are decent but don't bring anything new to the table. I'd recommend the Battle Sister class, however, as it's the one I played and had a lot of fun with it.

I wish I found this game earlier. Amazing game -- more full of a game than most in today's gaming marketplace.

I don't exactly dislike this game, but in terms of value proposition, your money is better spent elsewhere unless you can get this at a VERY steep discount (I paid $20 for the definitive edition and that was still probably too much).

The first thing you should know is that this is a very basic, casual ARPG. Personally I don't mind that, but if you prefer ARPGs to be more like Grim Dawn then you'll hate this. The real problem I have is that there's no variety in the maps or enemies. The maps you fight on are either ruined city streets, the interiors of void ships, or catwalks outside of hive cities. Most of these locations are copy-pasted so eventually you'll start to recognize the layouts. Occasionally you may fight in a swampy area or a snowy area, but you won't see those much. The enemy variety is just as lacking. You'll either be fighting generic guardsmen who have turned heretical, Nurgle's daemons, or Drukhari. Each faction only has a handful of units so you'll get very familiar with them very fast. Chaos Space Marines will sometimes hang out with the heretic guardsmen and Nurgle's daemons, but that's all you get.

One other thing that really stuck out is the inconsistent voice acting. The VAs will frequently say words that don't match up with the subtitles, and they'll pronounce words strangely or just flat out wrong. At one point the tech priest on my ship was saying something about the amygdala part of the brain, and he pronounced it "amygDALIA." The VAs don't have any obvious foreign accents, but I suspect they aren't native English speakers. It's not a huge deal, but it still bothers me. When you can't even be bothered to proofread your scripts or make sure your VAs are pronouncing words correctly, it makes the whole thing come across as cheap and low-effort.

I want to like this game. I love 40K and this game can be fun in short bursts, but it's just so damn repetitive. You'd think with the steep $50 USD price tag and the ridiculous amount of DLCs that they'd be able to afford making a few more maps or enemy types, but nope. I guess all that money went toward developing more King Arthur games.

The game is great. Wish I would have heard about it sooner. Better than Diablo 4. 10/10

They keep adding seasons, classes, missions.
More ARPG could take a lesson from this.
My only complaint is cohesion of systems.
It is...very organic feeling.
Kinda needs a cleanup...
but that is minor complaint on a splendid title.

There is no warning in character creation that one of the classes disables coop campaign.
Wasting plenty of time. Requiring you to create a new character wasting more time repeating mandatory intro missions should you want to play the game.

Since they added offline mode its in the the top ten Diablo like games. The gameplay and story are really good!

Yeah it's alright lol.

In all seriousness: Great game overall if you like ARPG's and Wh 40k stuff. Just get the dlc on sale if you can. Only dlc you really NEED though is the battle sister and Prophecy/Mechanicus Skitarii expansion.

Serviceable! If you want a diablo-like dungeon crawler with 40K flavor, this is it. it doesn't do it particularly well, but i found myself coming back to it again and again.

It’s Diablo meets 40K, but it’s more fun to burn heretics and Chaos cultists with my flamethrower! The graphics are decent, the soundtrack is decent, and the ambiance is amazing. You should definitely check it out—it’s worth the buy.

This is a really good ARPG, but it is very complex and there a lot of systems to learn. It is not for a casual gamer in my opinion as it is very involved and all of the different options make this game very hard for new players. I am also new to Warhammer 40K so I am not sure if you should be familiar with Warhammer 40K. Still I bought this game on sale and am very happy to own it! You could literally spend 1000's of hours in this game!

I like it so far!
At first, one issue I had was how short some of the missions felt. However, I then bumped up the difficulty from Normal to Expert, and it feels like its a pretty solid length for a decent challenge! Its definitely worth the $18 I picked it up for on sale!

This is a great ARPG that I've just recently discovered and have no idea why it didn't get bigger. Unfortunately, the MP aspect is nearly dead, but it is still a great single player experience with 7 seasons of content to get through that you can do in any order you choose. Well worth picking up on sale if you are an ARPG fan and/or a WH40K fan. The campaign story is very riveting and the voice acting is top notch.

Great Lore, fun gameplay loop and one of the best Warhammer 40k faithful games out there. Love the addition of the Adepta Sororitas Battle Sisters as well. The Emperor Protects!

Warhammer 40,000: Inquisitor - Martyr - A Dark Crusade

Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐☆

"Warhammer 40,000: Inquisitor - Martyr" plunges you into the grim and dangerous world of the Imperium, where you take on the role of an Inquisitor hunting down heresy. The game shines with its dark atmosphere, brutal combat, and deep lore, capturing the essence of the 40k universe. With multiple classes to choose from, each offering unique playstyles and abilities, you can tailor your Inquisitor to suit your approach, whether it’s close combat, ranged attacks, or psychic powers. The campaign offers a satisfying mix of action and strategy, although some repetitive missions and occasional bugs can slow down the experience.

Despite minor flaws, Inquisitor - Martyr delivers a solid action RPG experience with plenty of customization to dive into. Fans of Warhammer 40k and dark, tactical gameplay will find plenty to enjoy here.

A very well done translation of 40k into CRPG style. Fast paced combat with a nice story backing it.

this is actual gold. I prefer it over diablo (except diablo 2, that's og.) i love the graphics/art style. everything feels on scale with 40k. The atmosphere, music, dialogue, all very true to 40k. The stat system is wild. I'm currently at 25 hrs/level 5x on my Sister of Battle and it feels great! the combat is well done, the systems don't feel overbearing and the tutorials are helpful!

The Co op is awesome, you can both progress properly at the same time, you both get your own loot tables. You also can bump the difficulty way up and literally go destroy huge hordes. There are also special missions, most can be done in co op except 1 special mission that is understandably single player.

Im excited for my first seasonal character to hit 100 and begin another seasonal, can't recommend enough

I tried the suggested methods in game crushes, but nothing worked.
