It never really did but I got through to the end and it got a bit more enjoyable as I progressed and better understood game mechanics that just aren't explained at all in the tutorials.
Story

70 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
This is very frustrating as the story is interesting and engaging, I ended up watching it on youtube and was surprised at how many famous 40K characters appeared in it.
