I have played every single CoD campaign (except for Black Ops 3). This is by far the worst CoD campaign experience I've had.

If you liked Left 4 Dead, then you will certainly adore this game, as many refer to it as a spiritual successor to L4D. It adopts almost the exact same formula, with special enemies and co-op play. However, it places enough of a twist to make it different. This game is focused heavily on its melee mechanics rather than the "shooter" nature of L4D. As such, the skill level may be higher as it is required for players to be proficient in dodging, blocking and parrying attacks to perform well, especially at higher difficulties.

Levels are varied enough that each one is interesting to play through over and over again. However, after completing the game, you will find yourself in the pursuit for loot. Thus, if replaying same levels or grinding for loot isn't your cup of tea, this game will probably not provide you the amount of enjoyment that many of its current playerbase is getting. Ultimately, this is a L4D spin-off with RPG elements that certainly proves worthwhile if you have a party to play with.

If you are already a fan of the rich Warhammer universe, then Vermintide is a must-buy as it does such a big service to followers of the lore. It is very faithful to its source material, and the designs do just that. The characters are so full of life and backstory that gets you invested in them. The witty banter provides for enriching dialogue. The equipment used by the heroes are so rich in detail that it even tells its own stories.

Graphics are superb, but the game may not be fully optimized so only high-end machines can run this game reliably at the highest settings with an acceptable framerate.

Personally, this was my best purchase of 2015.

Edit: After almost a year after release, this game is pretty much dead. I suggest buying this game only if you have a group of friends to play with. Still a great game nonetheless. Not worth if playing solo.
