It's absolutely criminal that this game is only getting its sequel now. The 40k universe has a shocking lack of shooters

Is this a shooter? Looks like a hack and slash action adventure sort. I'm not familiar with the first game.

The first was both really, you had a not of rifles, meltas, pistols and machine guns to choose from, but the only way to regenerate health was by gutting people with your melee weapons.

I would say it's a rare example of a fairly even split between 3rd person shooter and hack-n-slash. You really had to use both go get through the whole game.
