I finished up a large link list from the last three months. It's so big I have to break it up into really small bits. For example, this is just about Space Marine 2
VG: Space Marine 2
A gameplay reel of Space Marine 2 with info on tactics, the story, and multiplayer. I hope there is a PvE or some other almost MMO style set up.

SpMa2: DLC
The new DLC will be new cosmetics and types to work with. So you maxed out everything and the DLC lets you add new stuff to Max out. They're trying to hide it a bit, but it's there.
Proof of that, the next year roadmap has cosmetic dlc, and new game modes and features as part of free updates
I'll play it if it's good, months after release. I never play or watch things at release as an exercise against hype.
Don't get hyped.
I'm in a weird state for all of Warhammer if I'm honest. As a geek it hits all the fun stuff, especially if you like dark. As a historian and anthropologist, I can't believe any of this could last I to the thousands of years, when empires like this didn't last 10. Lots of Noble Stupidity, but actually impossible.
That said, as practice, I'm designing a theme park for WH40k. The Adeptus Mechanicus Aquatics park will be the last bit.
