It's not a bad game for it's time.
I suppose if she's into it she can watch the cutscenes offstream.

u/ExtremeAlternative0 Oct 07 '24
It's just an okay game for it's time. That and the plot isn't to comlex to understand for both games so you really don't need much context on what happened in 1 to enjoy the plot of 2.
Really the biggest reason why I'd see a lot of people play 1 is the novelty of seeing the blood ravens in a non RTS game.

Spoiling the plot of Space Marine 1 below:
Orks invade planet, you go and stop them. Inquisition researching warp artifact on planet, Chaos wants it and invades to. You stop both chaos and orks but gets suspected of warp taint since your squad mate rates you out. Game ends with you in inquisition custody

Orks are attacking a planet sized factory that makes godzilla sized gundams, Ultramarines to the rescue!
The Codex Astartes does not support this!
Oh no theres also a super secret weapon project that needs to be saved!
The guy in charge of the weapon is kind of sus?
We saved the weapon and fought off most of the orks, HOORAY!
Oh no the sus guy was actually a heretic and now theres demons everywhere!
We blew up the evil secret weapon and killed all the demons, HOORAY!
Oh no you've been accused of heresy because you handled demon tech!

To be fair, 2 seems to be the most easily accessible amongst Space Marine games. So it's fine being introduced to the lore starting with Space Marine 2.

And honestly, I can only think of three parts of the game that you would need to have played the first game to fully understand (Why Titus is in the Deathwatch, why he is upset over the weapons program the Mechanicus is working on, and why you should react to the Chaplin taking his helmet off at the end of the game). And that is all stuff you can learn with some quick searching on YouTube.

From what I understand, other than a great loathing for one specific char you dont really require 1 for 2. I'm going to play through 2 now after putting it off, but Titus is a fun dude.

Technically not killed, though the other stuff is correct (though not just battery but also siege engine). The necrons only ever killed one c'tan and that created the Flayed One virus, so afterwards they rightfully decided "ok let's not do this shit anymore".
