Where's Khorne and Slaanesh?

[-<MisFits>- High on Death]

We got Nurgle and Tzeench in the game but why not the other two? like bro can the Nurgle Bias just stop bro. give Khorne and Slaanesh some love man.

[Spideroth]

Honestly pretty lucky to even get Tzeench in the game.

[VonPumpkinson]

It needs to be lore accurate.

[MassMetalizer]

Comically everything is so pixelated, you could get away with Slaanesh. It is weird we're fighting Black Legion and only two of the gods showed up. But at least I'm glad to be fighting Tzeench for once.

[Metalraiser]

Aren't Khorne and Slaanesh archrivals and thus most likely not be cooperating in the same place?
Otherwise yeah it would be nice to have them in a game too. But honestly this is already more variation than you usually get in an W40K action game.

but Tzeench and Nurgle are eternal Rivals and they're both in the game.

Nothing stops them bickering over which side gets to keep the MacGuffin

If they added Khorne and Slaaneshy demons they might have a semblance of enemey variety and you can't have that. Stopped the game after chapter 2 since my guess was that I'm probably not gonna see any new enemy in noteworthy amounts and it looks like my gut feeling was right. Letdown of a game.

At some mid-point, you'll be introduced to all of Doom's enemies. What's your point?

no. because 40k lore isnt even accurate... it changes per edition per codex per whatever they want. grow up

[Morty2989]

Doesn't the ending show the shadow of a bloodletter? Maybe some DLC hinted at.

No it does.

Yeah that's what i've wrote on my review, a shame to have only black legions marines, the areas dedicated to Nurgle would have been awesome with plague marines, really resilient to fight, same with Tzeench, rubric marines with boost up damage bolt would have been great too.

[2LambBuna]

you do get tzeentch sorcerers later on

Most Warhammer titles don't feature all of the Chaos Gods. Space Marine, the predecessor to this game, had only Bloodletters. Fire Warrior had exactly one Lord of Change as the final boss. Neither Vermintide game contained any daemons, even with the second game featuring a Nurgle-aligned warband and trips into the Chaos Wastes. Darktide has only Beasts of Nurgle, not even Nurglings.

Maybe you noticed that the Nurgle daemons lack Plaguebearers and feature Plague Toads instead? I bet it's because Plaguebearers, being slow as molasses melee troops, would not contribute much in this game whereas the Plague Toads offer a more varied challenge.
