Do we need weapon stats at this point?

I appreciate your perspective. I thought I remembered seeing something about personalization being a goal with Darktide’s weapons, but I don’t have a great memory and it may not have been from an official source. The closest I could find on short notice was this:

We have learned a lot from our previous choices and gameplay surrounding crafting offered within the Vermintide series. For Darktide we wanted to take those lessons to expand and improve in such a way that crafting would become a central pillar of player progression, while giving more impact and agency to you, the player in your preferred playstyle.

Which is pretty old at this point, and from a less popular spokesperson than we have now. It does emphasize progression more than “agency” and “preferred playstyle” suggest personalization.

Agree to disagree and all that. For what it’s worth Darktide is still improving, and much better than it was at pretty much any time before now. For all the grand sweeping revisions we might like to see come to Darktide, at least what we have is good and what’s coming is likely better.
