      Hearing that ER ambiance in the background, all I can say is that ER melee combat could use an upgrade to Vermintide / Darktide melee complexity. Tide games have usable movesets and more importantly combos which give you access to single target / cleave combos on virtually all weapons. The melee combat also feels far more responsive and enjoyable.

    "That which is dope may never die."
    V2 has been an incredible coop game for a long time now, with consistent updates, content drops, and ENORMOUS amounts of QOL features that were focused on satisfying players. There have been SO MANY requests by the community that Fatshark simply said "okay, we'll do that". This is why Darktide had such a rough start, because V2 had all of the bones of what Darktide should have been, but when it launched it was lacking those quality of life features.
    V2, IMO, still remains as one of the top coop games of all time. Up there with L4D2, Halo 3, and Helldivers 2.

    Vermintide 2 will never be dead
    The game doesn't use third party servers, instead it uses Steam's peer to peer connection network.
    As long as Steam exists, players can play together.
    As a 4 player co-op game, to have a full experience you only need yourself and 3 friends.
    Yes, if playercounts are generally low, quickplaying into matches might be more challenging, but generally speaking, the game will never be dead if you can sit down and play with 3 other friends.

    The game has lower player count because it's 6 years old and you can only kill the same 35 enemies so many times before you grow bored of it.
    After 1500h (over 5 years) I literaly play the game on autopilot most of the time and I have unlocked close to everything that isn't pure tedium to unlock (looking at you all 15 white skins).
    I had a really good run with the game but at this point it holds nothing more for me (and all my friends dislike the game so I can't play with them, not that it would change anything because the skill gap between us would be so big I would be basiclay babysitting then and not playing the game and the whole time there would be no stakes because I can carry the game whenever I want).

    Vermintide has a hardcore following.
    I have 2 friends that REFUSE darktide
    Both of them bought it. But returned them with in 2 hours or less.
    One of them hates the melee of Darktide, because he really REALLY DOESN'T want to alternate between guns to pick off the range units hitting him, where in Vermintide 2, you'll be fine just playing 100% Melee(you can guess which class he EXCLUSIVELY plays in Vermintide 2, hint: cup)
    And the other just didn't like that Psykers are just really shitty until they get to like lvl 12, he got to Lvl6 and was like "Why is Sienna so good in beginning where Darktide Psykers can only FusDoRah? WTF? I thought the God Emperor was psyker too? This is fuckin lame, Bye."
    As for me, I just larp as a guardsman from Death korps of Krieg till Space Marines 2 comes out.
    Oh and Rogue Trader is so shit with multiplayer compared to BG3, especially with the LOADING SCREENS(Yo Dawg, we heard you liked loading screens, so we added a loading screen within a loading screen within a loading screen.)

    As of right now honestly it might be.
    Last time I really spent time on it before a long break was last winter. There was still tones of players on PC and I beat the whole campaign on cataclysm twice with random players.
    Booted the game up a few times this week and I can only find a few sessions and their mostly Chinese.

      It's odd because its clear that the Weave was intended as the post adventure content for players who've already beat cataclysm but honestly I really hate playing it. And it seems like the majority of the community does too.
      Which is probably why most players stopped playing or go on long breaks. There IS content and progression for us. But it's just not appealing.
      I love chaos wastes but tend to play modded with a few friends every now and then for longer harder versions of it.
      I really wish they would let us play all the adventure maps with Chaos wastes mechanics.

    Perhaps a little too easy, I think I’ve lost a map only once after about 30 hours in the game and already playing Champion (soon legend). So not sure about the longevity if theres no challenge, just grinding maps and chests.

    I realized recently that this is my favorite game of all time. The gameplay, the setting, the atmosphere, the sound design, the characters, the voice acting. Every time I play, I feel insanely immersed. Unfortunately new players always think its a hold W and spam left click type of game, which it is not once you play anything but the lowest two difficulties.
    I just can't get enough of the game. Every time I play, I have it installed for 50 - 100 hours, take a break and come back for another 50 - 100 hours.
    But my god, the community, while friendly, consists of a bunch of cheapskates. They negatively review the dlc for no reason. The only dlc that deserves a bad score is Winds of Magic, all other dlcs deserve every cent. Blows my mind how people with hundreds of hours complain about spending 10 - 15 bucks on a dlc (they often go on sale). They also complain that Fatshark gave them the option to buy the new careers without the cosmetics... They expect new career, new weapons, quests, portrait borders, getting their d sucked, all for under 10 bucks. Truly mindblowing community.
    Yet modern players have no issue spending 20 bucks for a skin in game.
    I have purchased every single dlc and reviewed it positively (except for Winds of Magic). Nothing compares to this game.

      Yeah, more maps we never play because despite all the changes they are still not fun lol.
      My entire group of friends avoid maps with beastmen like the plague, and while we play through maps in QP that spawn them, it reminds us why we avoid them.
      There is exactly one fun beastman to fight and it's a bestigor, and it's because they bowl everything over to get to you.
      Headbutts suck. Nothing like an attack that has no tell and decent damage to rage over.
      Archers with infinite ammo in a melee centric game suck.
      Minotaurs suck. Easy to cheese, awful to engage.
      Crap faction and I would buy paid DLC to have the option to remove them from the game.

Then one of us got COVID and the team never recovered even after he got better. Now, I’m in a discord channel dedicated to Weaves and a couple of Steam channels, too, but I have never gone back. But, you see people pretty regularly looking for groups.
      To be honest, I don’t get the hate. The itemization system they introduced is far better than regular VT2 or even DT and people say it’s bc the levels are static, but one of the pinnacle achievements of VT2 is considered Cata FOW and it’s totally static. Same item spawns each time, same wave compositions and monsters every time.
      I think the initial buggy ness of the beast men animations and hit registry and how they could stack inside each other had something to do with it?
      Frankly, I find the map designs beautiful even if they’re re-using existing assets and the mutators are fixed, but they’re kinda a precursor to CW if you ask me.

    It always seems like games 'die' when their not being talked about but the charts always tell the real story. Its doing just as good as it was 6 years ago.

    Chaos Wastes is a waste. I fucking absolutely hate rouge-likes. Why you want to play a game where progression determined randomly and resets, I don't know. It doesn't appeal to me. And I don't think it appeal to average Joe. Fuck that.
