I only saw a stream of it for a short amount of time, and whatever genre Vermintide is, that's the impression I got too.
When I think about it, if I had friends to play shit with, I actually kinda think something like Vermintide would be something I'd want to play with them.
Vermintide 2 was a pretty solid game on release, that just got worse with each patch and content added. It was good enough that even random matchmaking was worth doing until you needed top level difficulty.
But the important thing it did right, that Helldivers doesn't, is that it allowed bots to fill your group if you didn't have a full party. So even if it was just 2 of you, you could mostly play just fine.
Helldivers is 100% a "bring 2-3 friends or don't bother" type of coop game.
I actually got the base game of Vermintide 2 for free, and for a bit, it was starting to look kinda fun. But like I said, not really many gamer friends to have that kind of fun with, and it starts to lose appeal.
I think its a good enough game to enjoy on your own if the matchmaking still has enough people to get you at least 1-2 randos to run with. Unless the gameplay changes over the years are more severe than I know.
Just don't get so into it you want to play the highest difficulty levels and get the best gear, because that's when you gotta bring friends and coordination.

I consider it a mix of mass effect multiplayer plus DRG. I honestly love it.
