[Update]: My review for Darktide is now live and, long story short, it's as rough and fascinating as the world it takes place in!
Much like its predecessor Vermintide 2, Warhammer 40,000: Darktide is a remarkably challenging co-op game. Getting good at it requires deftly switching between both melee and ranged combat, calmly prioritizing dangerous enemies in huge crowds and tense situations, as well as quickly adjusting to whatever curveball the AI director decides to send your way. And all of this only gets more and more complicated the higher you ramp up the difficulty setting.
Yet despite how hard things can get, Darktide is also a remarkably enjoyable game to mess around with, and one that I've already spent 50 hours on. So if you're thinking about diving in yourself, allow me to give you some handy tips and advice to help avoid the inquisitor's wrath and make those first few missions go by as smoothly as possible. Without further ado, let us begin!

So if you're new to the more challenging side of the action-RPG genre, or if you're simply looking to make your first run through There Is No Light as smooth as possible, allow me to share with you some handy tips and advice to help you get started. Without wasting any more time, let us begin!
