I KNOW NO FEAR!!!
cara, esse jogo é MUITO foda e MUTO divertido mesmo. o jogo é bem levinho, a ambientação é inacreditável de foda e a escolha estética é algo que pessoalmente, me agrada muito. esse foi o meu primeiro contato direto com warhammer 40k, apesar de que já vi alguns videos sobre, joguei o boltgun words of vengeance e eu tenho o relics na steam q ainda nem encostei. enfim, esse jogo é muito bom, pode ir nele sem medo. eu particularmente só achei um pouco repetitivo do meio pro final principalmente pq a gnt mata os mesmos 3 bosses durante o JOGO TODO. como eu disse, primeiro contato com o universo de warhammer 40k ent n sei se certos conceitos são limitados mas achei essa questão dos inimigos bem repetitiva. vi algumas pessoas falando q acharam as fases repetitivas mas eu achei bem ok, não senti tanta repetição e quando sentia, ao menos era notório que o jogo tentou fazer diferente aushduhsda. enfim, sólido 8/10, se tivesse uma história a mais, além de cutscenes e textos narrativos no loading, seria 9,5 com certeza. recomendação do mano sickboi btw.

14 on sale1 answered “not sold”0 we did not ask
The 1 “not sold” market is read from the Steam price pass of Aug 30: that day the store answered for this game elsewhere and gave no price there. The 14 priced markets are the same rows as the table above — each the latest price we hold, dated here when it is older than that pass. The 0 marked “not asked” were not put to this store at all — either it has no storefront there or we do not collect it yet, and neither is a statement about the game. A refusal is a refusal on one day; a store can list a title again tomorrow.

Too few observations to say whether a discount moves this store's chart at all: across the last 30 days Steam · Top Sellers · Poland has just 18 day-to-day chart moves that followed a price cut, against 2,498 that did not. We are publishing the count instead of a direction — 20 is the fewest we will draw a conclusion from, and price collection outside the United States began on 6 August 2026.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

I Absolutely love this game, this just proves you dont need super realistic high detail graphics to be a good game. I love the nostalgia of the retro style graphics the game play is fun and all out warefare just as you would expect from anything to do with the grimdark universe of Warhammer! Highly reccomended and I cant wait for Boltgun 2!
爽就完事了
i lowkey understand that my pc is ass, but this game, is the inly game that made my pc bluescreen and crash, not minecraft not tf2 not even halflife and portal, but this game has done it. anyways, rlly good game tbh. i guess my pc is not biult for ts lol
Boltgun is proof that games don't need to be complicated to be fun. It's incredibly easy to jump into, the combat is pure chaos, and the linear design keeps the action moving without wasting your time. You just load up, grab a chainsword and a bolter, and start tearing through enemies. A fantastic throwback to classic shooters, but with much more refined movement and gameplay.
doom like 好玩
Pretty cool. Got the idea of what the entire game would be like for the first hour I played. Map design was sometimes great, sometimes not. Definitely fun for a while.
Frantic, frequently arena-based fights make for a slightly annoying gameplay setup. And level design is often basic. Still the chance to explore some big W40,000 levels is probably worth it on sale!
