Polygon | Darktide's gory animations are smarter than you think @polygon | Uploaded 1 year ago | Updated 10 hours ago
What is the secret sauce of Darktides bonks, slashes, gashes, bumps, and thwumps? Pat asks the gunksmiths at Fatshark how they make smashing a pipe on a demon cultists head feel so meaningful. Melee combat is at the center of what makes Warhammer 40K: Darktide's gameplay feel good, and they've put a lot of thought into how enemies splatter into pieces and ragdoll into oblivion. Building on their work in Vermintide, the developers spill the secret sauce behind Darktide's gory combat.
