My guess is that the game gets really repative because that is kinda the Tyranid style. Waves and waves of teeth and claws. Maybe some variations, but how long can you send swarms of the same guy before its boring.

I guess Vermintide and 40k version (can't remember name) make it work but they are very different games.

The prequel had mostly orks in the beginning, but they sprinkled in some other enemies later on. So I assume they'll do something similar here.

Gene stealers, Lictors, a carnifex here or there.

Dark Tide hardly works. The "cultists" that are everywhere are usually chaos and die to a stern glare. The game has serious grind problems. The over-the-top waves of 40k make for really boring gameplay.

Tyranids can have plenty of variety if you are familiar with the full breadth of their forces.
