the voice work is just incredible and surprised how much personality was there, and after listening to a few various gameplay clips and hearing conversations, this is how I view the 4 skitarii personalities:

the Pathfinder: he seems like this calm and very stalwart leader, always charging in the front, always calm in the storm, wouldn't be surprised he's a skitarii alpha vanguard with the most durable augmentations to represent that leading role

the Reverent: she seems like both an extremely rational and quite protective nerd, almost like someone who could've been a tech priest but didn't want to deal with all the annoying datawork, probably has emotional cores with how she feels for everyone, or wanted to be a tech priest but was reassigned to be a skitarii

the Hunter: he's like if a necron flayed one decided to larp as a sicarian ruststalker, a full on psycho itching to fight and rip things apart, especially organics, and doesn't want to work with other skitarii or tech priests and just wants to shed blood

the Exterminator: she views mass extermination as logical, and is quite spiteful, especially towards organics which isn't surprising, and seems focused on enacting revenge on those who befell atoma and shows no trust towards anyone outside of her admech superiors

I think my favorite of the bunch is reverent since she reminds me of twelfth architect from silksong [a big and nice nerd] and second being pathfinder as that vanguard like team leader.

don't me wrong the Hive Ganger is pretty cool and slapstick funny [male anarchist my beloved] and the Arbites is absolutely bonkers, but I've been yearning for an AdMech class for a long while and I thought we would never get a FPS game that would feature the admech let alone a more humane/free subfaction of them

yet here we are getting the alpha skitarii, Fatshark managed to make it work around the older lore and the skitarii's limitations in general, the skitarii we're getting are alpha primus class skitarii, who are pretty much fully independent individuals with personality, which is pretty more humane compared to other depictions of admech [I see that as a breath of fresh air lorewise, since most skitarii are just semi servitors with guns] and being able to make them just as creative and diverse as tech priests in terms of augmentation and aesthetics is a major win for me

and the cherry on top of all, is that this is the first WH40K FPS game in history to feature the AdMech as a playable faction/class, like I've heard people say that GW has been very hesitant of featuring the admech in first person or third person games, yet Fatshark managed to get them to give the greenlight to make it happen, and we're getting that freshly baked cake in just a week away.

I mean the fact eris did it [and lorewise she was gigantic] and it was only temporary to weaken xivu, yet why hasn't anyone else done it?

and since it seems like luzaku said some form of goodbye [which really karking hurts] I think it would make a lot of sense to have some allied hive on the vanguard's side and why not do that by having those who want to take some risk evolve/reform themselves into a hive/krill?
