    El juego no me permite jugar sin conexión a internet, lo cual no se específica en la caja del mismo.

    Graphics are good, voice acting is decent. Core gameplay loop is weak and becomes boring quick: run into room, hold trigger until enemies dead, repeat. There was no challenge (normal difficulty). The cover system for combat is so clunky that it's easier to not use it. Single player story would be better if it were shorter, but the repetitive gameplay loop meant the story was a realGraphics are good, voice acting is decent.

    No coop campaign in an action rpg ... what is this 1985?

    It's like they just threw together a bunch of random mechanics together and called it a game? The tutorial is very weak (you hit touchpad and read a power point). It does a poor job of explaining anything. I bought this on deep sale and still feel ripped off ... need to remember that no developer is every going to do the    No coop campaign in an action rpg ... what is this 1985?

    This is another game that stupidly requires you to be online to play single player. Well, consider this a lost sale. I am putting my foot down. If you require an internet connection to play single-player, not only are you not getting my money, I will trash the game at every opportunity because of this anti-consumer tactic. I hope there are millions of other people who feel the same way,This is another game that stupidly requires you to be online to play single player. Well, consider this a lost sale.

    I don't know what games workshop was thinking... This is neither pleasing to Warhammer fans nor ARPG fans. This game plays and feels like an incomplete ps2 game.

    Couch co-op is a joke. You have to play through SEVEN missions solo before it's an option, and even then, you don't get to play full characters together. No, your buddy has to play as some garbage henchman "support" character with no progression and no options.

    No other ARPG on the market does this poorly at co-op. Awful experience.

    Такая вселенная и такое слабое исполнение.
    Казалось бы что можно запороть в dungeon rpg, оказалось многое.
    Не уровень diablo и даже не уровень torchlight - игра не стоит затрат.

    The bones of a really fun game are here but so much of it is "B" grade. I probably need to persevere and let it get its hooks into me, but I'm not going to.

    The entire experience was quite muddled and messy. The UI, skill trees and upgrades are complicated, unjustifiably so. Something that is particularly painful though are the constant graphical issues, specifically the Screen Tear.    The bones of a really fun game are here but so much of it is "B" grade.

    With a bit of effort Inquisitor Martyr could have been pretty good, at this point in time its slightly plain bad.

    Its a shame that these 40K games never get the developer they deserve, whomever that may be.    … Expand

    Wanted to try this game out, unfortunately it put me on a "You need a Neocore account" screen that i couldn't click out of or close. Complete waste of time, so i just uninstalled it. A terrible first time user experience, just let me play and put the register option somewhere on the main menu for players to do later if they want.

    No offline mode. Requires an account that I can’t create. Servers down? Can’t play. Internet down? Can’t play. I got it for free from PS Plus, but even then I feel cheated. The fact that they want money for this F2P-style cancer is depressing.

    Very boring, monotonous, monotonous game. There is no plot, I barely played to the end.

    From start to finish, Warhammer 40,000: Inquisitor – Martyr is an outstanding dungeon crawler that checks all the boxes I want checked and then goes on to polish up all the other details as well. It might not win over those who aren’t already fans of the genre, but players looking for the next great dungeon crawl can’t afford to miss this one.

    Although it excels over others when it comes to story, Martyr is still not good enough in some aspects that are too important to its genre, they cannot be overlooked.

    If Martyr was the Warhammer game you’ve been waiting for, it’s likely to disappoint. [Issue#154, p.80]
