Simple as

arctic talon
#

It just eats your entire planet

#

lol

dense salmon
#

I dont know much about leagues of votann

arctic talon
#

Everything gets processed

spice ridge
#

Planet eater, can you guess what it does?

dense salmon
#

To my knowledge there isn't a lot to read yet

hasty coral
#

If anyone actually engaged with 40k on a media level they would realize WOW it’s a major satire of right wing nutjobs

arctic talon
#

there isn't

hasty coral
#

No way

storm jungle
#

they basically have almost no lore yea

arctic talon
#

but we're getting a Gav Thrope book

dense dawn
#

40k is a the typa place where cannibalism is a second class citizen thing

storm jungle
#

just their codex and kill-team book

arctic talon
#

so

#

tons of lore

#

incoming

lapis wadi
storm jungle
hasty coral
#

Like that ANYONE was surprised about the hate speech callout GW did proves media literacy is dead

dense salmon
#

I think it's important to recognize 40k as satire, but it being satire doesn't mean it doesn't have compelling and moving storytelling

#

Star trek is satire too

#

40k is just more space opera

dense dawn
#

So uh
What's the joke about the kriegs using the shovel as a weapon

storm jungle
#

nothing

#

WW1 trench weapons

#

so they assume they use shovels

dense salmon
#

It isn't a joke

storm jungle
#

when they literally got trench clubs

hasty coral
#

Yes 40k is mainly just sci fi fun

arctic talon
#

The joke is improvised trench weapons

#

when Krieg use like

#

Trench clubs mostly lol

dense salmon
#

Entrenchment tools are still used as weapons to this day

hasty coral
#

Politics are kinda shoved to the wayside

arctic talon
#

for Improvised weapons

dense salmon
#

Shovels are just spade-shaped sharp pieces of metal

lapis wadi
#

I'm suddenly reminded of Fallout forgetting it was a satire

hasty coral
#

But it is MAJORLY left leaning

arctic talon
#

and yeah entrenchment tools make good weapons in a pinch

storm jungle
arctic talon
#

but a Kriegsman has an actual melee weapon

dense dawn
#

Did they shovel a demon to death or no
It's all I'm asking

storm jungle
#

others not so much

arctic talon
#

The Tau empire is satirization of White Savior Complex

#

a ton lol

storm jungle
#

no they didnt

#

lmao

#

they just use bayonets

hasty coral
#

KILL ME

arctic talon
#

They belive they're "educating the lesser races"

storm jungle
arctic talon
#

so to speak lol

storm jungle
#

its full of brainwashed people

arctic talon
#

its kinda hilarious

hasty coral
#

Wouldn’t know about meme chat

lapis wadi
#

Are they being horny and/or drinking the corpse-starch juice again?

arctic talon
#

lol

hasty coral
#

I just steal memes

storm jungle
hasty coral
#

I engage in this channel and the Ogryn channel

dense salmon
#

The tau empire is an amalgamation of a lot of east Asian and near east sociology and aesthetics

arctic talon
dense salmon
#

They aren't communist China

hasty coral
#

That’s about it

arctic talon
#

They also have a big like savior complex thing going on

storm jungle
arctic talon
#

the more I think about it lol

#

its pretty creepy

dense dawn
dense salmon
#

Every faction of 40k is an amalgamation of superficial parallels to real-world institutions

arctic talon
#

yeah

#

actually

storm jungle
#

Kiiiiinda

arctic talon
#

Chaos is just

#

not really

#

lol

hasty coral
storm jungle
#

most factions dont have a political message

dense dawn
arctic talon
#

Its just uber mega evil

hasty coral
#

Again it’s mainly sci fi fun

#

Now

dense salmon
#

The imperial cult is superficially very similar to catholicism but once you look deeper you realize they are fundamentally untenable theologically

storm jungle
#

Ehhh

dense dawn
#

Random question
Do the mechanicus actually fuck toasters

storm jungle
#

its still pretty close

hasty coral
#

The main basis of most of the major factions are slightly political

#

But that’s about it

storm jungle
#

corrupt clergy is still a thing

hasty coral
#

Yes

#

Talking about 40k population

arctic talon
hasty coral
#

And degeneracy

storm jungle
dense salmon
#

People who would argue that the imperial cult is similar to any real religious institution either only have a superficial idea of 40k's theology or real-world theology

hasty coral
#

At least one guy

#

Probably

dense dawn
storm jungle
hasty coral
#

Consistently? No

storm jungle
#

its not really that far off

arctic talon
#

The Imperial Cult is very much a criticism of corrupt religous people

dense dawn
arctic talon
#

but like

#

not actual religon lol

dense salmon
#

The imperial cult is very similar to the late Roman period

#

Its also similar to the Spanish inquisition

hasty coral
#

Again it’s very GOOFY satire

arctic talon
#

The Mechanicus

dense salmon
#

It's also similar to the great schism

storm jungle
#

They are still pretty WW2 germany, theres a reason the aquila exists as it does

lapis wadi
arctic talon
#

is much more catholic church esque

#

with their holy trinity

#

but still not really

dense dawn
arctic talon
#

Yeah the Imperial Cult is still a religon

#

but its just

#

bat shit insane

dense dawn
arctic talon
#

it doen't really resemble any irl religon

hasty coral
#

The politics and background is important to know

#

But isn’t crucial these days

storm jungle
#

Its basically christian/catholic

hasty coral
#

Again it’s sci fi fun first

#

These days

#

Which I like

dense dawn
#

Uhm

dense salmon
storm jungle
#

literally almost everything the ecclesiarchy members wear are european church stuff

hasty coral
storm jungle
#

the pope hats and everything

dense dawn
hasty coral
#

Sorry not you

dense salmon
#

As stated the imperial cult has a lot of superficial inspiration from real-world christian denominations

hasty coral
dense dawn
lapis wadi
#

You know all those people who are like, Jesus is Love Jesus is Life Jesus is the way I do what I do in your name OH JESUS
Just replace Jesus with Emperor, and you have a Zealot

arctic talon
hasty coral
#

Surely the Middle East is a very nice religious place

arctic talon
#

lol

hasty coral
#

Clueless

arctic talon
#

I love religous extremism

storm jungle
#

Crusades

#

Exists

#

💀

dense dawn
arctic talon
#

THE PATH OF LUDD WILL CLENSE ALL

#

wait no

#

wrong setting

dense salmon
#

The imperial cult also shares a lot of commonality with nazi-era gnosticism

hasty coral
#

Unfortunately 40k nutjobbery is just the scale

arctic talon
#

THE EMPERORS LIGHT WILL CLENSE ALL

hasty coral
#

Not the atrocities

dense dawn
storm jungle
warm notch
#

Do you guys think that 40k is over as soon as Matpat gets his grubby mitts all over it

dense salmon
#

Gnostic religion generally entails an ultimate good in conflict with an ultimate evil, called a demiurhe

arctic talon
hasty coral
#

Some would call exterminatus mercy next to being STONED to death

dense dawn
dense salmon
#

It is not inherently christian and is pre-christian in origin

hasty coral
#

Or burned alive

arctic talon
#

40k survived archwarhammer

#

it'll survive any sort of theorytuber/loretuber

hasty coral
#

Oh yeah that guy

arctic talon
#

no matter how bad

storm jungle
#

the guy that got told by GW to stop calling himself arch "warhammer"

arctic talon
storm jungle
hasty coral
#

Whatever happened to him

storm jungle
#

Uh nothing

#

he still does videos

#

hes just a nobody now

warm notch
#

Wtf is archwarhammer LOL

hasty coral
#

I don’t see his videos anymore

arctic talon
#

Hes irrelvent

dense dawn
#

Who is John warhammer

hasty coral
#

Lore guy

arctic talon
#

let the past die

storm jungle
arctic talon
dense dawn
warm notch
hasty coral
warm notch
#

You didn’t need to say racist

storm jungle
#

Yep lol

lapis wadi
#

Huh, I thought he just wasn't that great at lore, didn't know that

storm jungle
hasty coral
#

Was his lore equally shit?

arctic talon
#

he turned the siege of Vraks

#

into like

#

a 27 hour series

hasty coral
#

Most youtubers are

arctic talon
#

so yes

dense dawn
#

I love 40k servers bro
You literally cannot get banned for speaking about racism

dense salmon
#

The more I think about it the more the imperial cult parallels ascetic gnosticism

hasty coral
#

Besides like My Name is Byf for Destiny

arctic talon
#

The Siege Of Vraks I would like to mention

hasty coral
#

Generally he does a good job

arctic talon
#

is like

dense dawn
arctic talon
#

under 100 pages of lore lol

hasty coral
#

Warframe is full of clowns though

warm notch
#

My Name is Byf is so amazing

dense salmon
#

As a guy who has played warframe since it was in beta

hasty coral
#

He generally is pretty good

dense salmon
#

Warframe fucking sucks

warm notch
#

This is so sad

dense salmon
#

I love it though

hasty coral
#

Even handles the hardest stuff like the books of sorrow well

warm notch
#

I fucking love Warframe

storm jungle
# lapis wadi Huh, I thought he just wasn't that great at lore, didn't know that

Basically he said a lot of racist shit in his lore vids and people also hated him for having an annoying fake accent. Ended up deleting a good chunk of his vids once some people infiltrated his discord and showed very discriminating evidence of his chuddy nature.

GW also then later contacted him to tell him to remove "Warhammer" from his name, his subreddit also then got infiltrated by people that dislike him and made it so that all the posts on it are just building arches Lmao after that he just went on to be a nobody, still does vids here and there but he isnt as popular anymore.

hasty coral
#

Classic

dense salmon
#

I enjoy talking about theology as theology is a major interest of mine

hasty coral
#

Warframe moment

storm jungle
#

To give an image, ||he literally had a video where he called ork goblins as "house n-words" 💀 ||

dense salmon
#

Which is why I seriously dislike the associations people make with 40k and real-world religious institutions beyond what is superficial

warm notch
storm jungle
#

I KNOW

dense salmon
#

40k is very similar to many religions but different from any one

storm jungle
warm notch
#

I wouldn’t be able to show my face on the internet anymore if that happened to me

hasty coral
#

No

dense salmon
#

40k is a hero cult ascetic gnostic religion

hasty coral
#

Like he POSTED it?

dense dawn
arctic talon
storm jungle
#

I genuinely got no idea what he thought he was doing

hasty coral
#

Jesus CHRIST

warm notch
#

The deep lore of the 40k fandom: RACISM

spice ridge
#

Probably was under a misconception that most warhammer fans had the same mindset as he does

dense dawn
storm jungle
#

Yeah 💀

hasty coral
#

The double edge sword of satire

dense salmon
#

The hero worship part of the imperial cult is similar to the real roman imperial cult

storm jungle
#

of course that video was also deleted KEK

hasty coral
#

Most chuds are too stupid to know it’s satire

dense dawn
#

I mean that didn't even make sense
That was just racism in bold

warm notch
dense salmon
#

And also hellenism

warm notch
#

They’re just stupid

dense salmon
#

There is also catholic influences

hasty coral
#

They are too fucking dumb to realize they are being made fun of

hasty coral
#

Because they have ZERO media literacy

storm jungle
dense salmon
#

But it's ultimately an adversarial, gnostic religion where chaos as a whole is the demiurge

warm notch
storm jungle
# warm notch AAAHAHA

In the grim darkness of the dark future I guess there should only be white people 💀

arctic talon
dense dawn
arctic talon
#

there was someone mad about the female guardsmen in darktide as well

#

for some reason

dense salmon
#

Female guardsmen have always been a thing

lapis wadi
#

say psyk

storm jungle
#

oh man that was crazy

arctic talon
warm notch
#

Oh good lord

storm jungle
#

when the game first got announced uh

dense salmon
#

And a space marine could really be any race

storm jungle
#

the steam community hub exploded Lmao

warm notch
#

I’m surprised that not many people complained about Darktide’s diversity

storm jungle
#

they have

#

LMAO

warm notch
#

. . . Or I haven’t seen any

#

YEAH

#

AHAHAHA

dense dawn
#

Yall heard about the tweet about the new tyranids cinematic

dense salmon
warm notch
#

Darktide is so amazingly diverse I fucking love it

storm jungle
lapis wadi
#

Did they hate Mira in the Space Marine game too because she was an officer?

storm jungle
#

???? 💀

dense salmon
#

My girlfriend likes 40k and is supportive of my hobby. I enjoy that she can play 40k games and feel more a part of the community

arctic talon
warm notch
arctic talon
hasty coral
dense dawn
#

Bitch got mad at GW because the tyranids and I quote "reminded me of Jews getting killed"

hasty coral
#

They even use mutants

warm notch
#

Honestly all my friends who enjoy 40k are all queer and hearing about the wider fandom is amazing

hasty coral
#

Literally a war machine

#

Uses all types of people

spice ridge
#

Oh yeah I recall seeing some people making a stink about the characters darktide featured in the trailer

hasty coral
#

Holy shit

lapis wadi
hasty coral
#

No way

arctic talon
#

thank fuck

dense salmon
#

I dont really enjoy politics anymore, but im a pretty down to earth guy i think

warm notch
dense dawn
arctic talon
#

I haven't been called a racial slur in years

dense salmon
#

Darktide is not woke at all

arctic talon
hasty coral
#

Because GW decided to weed them out by saying

warm notch
hasty coral
#

Fuck yourselves

dense dawn
hasty coral
#

We hate you

warm notch
#

I’m kidding

#

I’m kidding I swear

hasty coral
#

Is that subtle enough?

arctic talon
storm jungle
#

GW has also really upgraded the minis to be unisex, and have men and women in a lot of kits.

Before then it was a total sausage-fest filled with white guys 💀

arctic talon
#

I got called one at work

#

so

dense salmon
#

And the people who cry woke are as insufferable as the people of the opposite side in my opinion

arctic talon
#

by a customer

dense salmon
#

Why shouldn't a space marine be black?

hasty coral
#

The imperium wouldn’t be racist

dense dawn
dense salmon
#

Why shouldn't a guardsmen be a woman?

hasty coral
#

No reason

#

Neither was EVER lore

arctic talon
#

you see Darktide is woke because my character wakes up in a cell

#

therfore

#

they woke up

storm jungle
#

The Imperium still has sexism to a degree but it isnt anything massive.

dense dawn
lapis wadi
#

Can you hold a lasgun?
You are enlisted

arctic talon
#

tbf same applies to like

#

interplanetary culture clashes

#

Do not put a Cadian and a Catachan in the same room

warm notch
#

What are the lore ramifications of this image

hasty coral
storm jungle
lapis wadi
arctic talon
#

He's still canon

#

btw

#

he got mentioned in Warzone octarius

dense dawn
warm notch
#

What does the yin-yang mean in the context of 40k

lapis wadi
#

Of course, who else would discover the planet of cat-people

hasty coral
#

You don’t fight 40k scale wars without using every single resource

storm jungle
#

so no

arctic talon
#

Or rather Inqusitor O.W.S.C

#

Which is

lapis wadi
hasty coral
#

Again chuds were too stupid to understand this

dense dawn
hasty coral
#

Because they are fucking DUMB

hasty coral
dense dawn
#

I think some of them have heritage

hasty coral
#

Not “black”

arctic talon
storm jungle
arctic talon
#

yeah

hasty coral
storm jungle
#

they arent african-american 💀

arctic talon
#

and also the solar radiation

hasty coral
#

Just not from the skin color

warm notch
lapis wadi
arctic talon
#

fucks up their overactive organ

#

lol

#

Salamander sucessors don't turn pitch black + have glowing eyes normally

#

unless they visit noctorne for a long period of time

dense dawn
storm jungle
#

💀

lapis wadi
#

There's one that makes the skin like, marble white too, right? Was the Carcharodons?

arctic talon
storm jungle
#

this is like seeing a burn victim charred and saying "are you african"

arctic talon
#

Corax's geneseed

#

steals your melanin

dense dawn
dense salmon
arctic talon
#

no matter your skin color

hasty coral
#

Again like pre geneseed

lapis wadi
#

Oh riiight yeah

dense salmon
#

BUT aren't African

arctic talon
#

Like

dense salmon
#

In uh

arctic talon
#

if you're black you turn greyish

hasty coral
#

They could be anything

arctic talon
#

which I don't think thats how that works

warm notch
#

What’s the word for being prejudiced against people from a specific planet

arctic talon
#

but this is space fantasy

hasty coral
warm notch
#

I’m very anti-Cadian

arctic talon
#

idk

warm notch
#

I’m just gonna say it, I don’t care that Cadia blew up

arctic talon
#

not a word for that in the modern lexicon

dense dawn
arctic talon
#

or imperial one

#

they just call them an asshole

hasty coral
#

It’s seriously is so fucking funny how dumb chuds were and still are

arctic talon
hasty coral
#

To make up shit that was never a thing

lapis wadi
#

Okay after a quick check to see if I was imagining things, the Carcharodon gene-seed is another one that messes with skin pigmentation
You get grey skin and black eyes after long enough.

arctic talon
#

within the Salamanders Legion

dense dawn
warm notch
hasty coral
#

And having 0 media analysis skills

arctic talon
#

and people who can't read between the lines

#

or just general assholes

hasty coral
#

Mainly the racist ones

dense dawn
#

40k moment

hasty coral
#

That’s the point

#

They are too stupid to understand 40k is making fun of them

lapis wadi
#

...so yeah I guess it would be weird to see like, a multi-century veteran black astartes in one or two chapters, not because of wokeness but because "Hey how come they got a free pass?"
And the reverse for a pasty white Salamander

hasty coral
#

Because they lack any education

storm jungle
#

Next you'll tell me gay or non-binary people exist in 40k.

Oh yeah they do

dense salmon
#

I'm a mixed guy

warm notch
hasty coral
dense salmon
#

My father is black and my mother is white

warm notch
#

Big E has so much girl power

dense salmon
#

I have no real emotional connection to either race

#

THAT being said

storm jungle
hasty coral
#

It’s VIOLENT HORRIFIC WAR

dense salmon
#

I still enjoy seeing people that look like me in media

lapis wadi
#

So long as the planet as a whole has enough for the tithe.. fuck it, good enough

dense dawn
warm notch
#

Gaslight, Gatekeep, Girlboss 💅

dense salmon
#

So if someone has olive skin and curly hair in darktide

#

I say its a good thing

hasty coral
#

Humanity cares very little for anything different besides direct horrific mutations

storm jungle
hasty coral
#

Even Ogryns are beloved

warm notch
#

Do they?

storm jungle
#

I mean no

hasty coral
#

Depends

storm jungle
#

Most imperial worlds usually just urge women to make kids though so 💀

dense dawn
hasty coral
storm jungle

#

And makes logical sense

lapis wadi

Also do marines have weewee

Look at anything with vampires

storm jungle
#

Vampires are VERY sexual though

dense dawn
storm jungle
#

their entire genesis is usually religious people warning you against them

#

and not to get seduced

dense salmon
#

Whenever I watch something vampiric with my girlfriend, I always lean over and tell her that "vampires are inherently kind of gay" as a joke

storm jungle
dense dawn
warm notch
#

Vampires are fruity yes

#

Ain’t no real man takes care of their hygiene that well unless they’re a little 💅

storm jungle
#

Alucard my beloved

dense dawn
warm notch
storm jungle
#

dont post that hellsing cringe at me 💀

warm notch
dense salmon
#

Not in a homophobic way or anything, just an in-joke. Vamlires are often used as an outlet to explore whatever is considered hypersexual at the time

celest dome
#

It's the better Alucard

dense dawn
storm jungle
dense salmon
#

Alucard himself represents the bishonen approach to male beauty

lapis wadi
#

they're both good

storm jungle
#

it didnt really work

#

for all the good reasons

dense salmon
#

Hellsing is cringe in the same way 40k is

#

40k is cringe

storm jungle
#

Also yeah lol

dense salmon
#

But it's cool as fuck

#

So it gets a pass

warm notch
#

40k is so cringe

#

But what is more cringe is denouncing it

#

You must embrace cringe

dense dawn
#

How can something be cringe and cool at the same time

warm notch
#

Be one with it

lapis wadi
#

being cringe is based

dense salmon
#

I'm not even like a progressive guy or whatever, I know people throw that political stuff around when it comes to opinions like these

dense dawn
warm notch
#

As in, there’s no “haha this is weird” about it

#

It takes it seriously

storm jungle
#

Kinda

warped briar
storm jungle
#

40k takes itself seriously and as a joke depending on the material

celest dome
#

Having ran a couple of WoD rpg, the worst type of player you can get are those that are playing it like Helsing

storm jungle
#

its shit

warm notch
#

What’s WoD

lapis wadi
#

With the edges sanded down on so much, it's nice to have an IP who says "Hey we have nuns that torture themselves for a dead god"

celest dome
#

Wolrd of Darkness

dense dawn
storm jungle
#

World of Darkness, a big vampire RPG game that is about as old as warhammer

warm notch
#

Ahh

storm jungle
dense salmon
green loom
#

It's comedic

#

But like

dense salmon
#

You get both aspects of the lore

green loom
#

The trailers and stuff

#

Those are a more serious/epic tone

dense salmon
#

The part that is as serious as a heart attack and the part that is jokes

lapis wadi
warm notch
#

Like wtf is a chainsword

#

There’s like

lapis wadi
#

...well unless Cegorach is involved

warm notch
#

No real way anything like that is superior than a normal sword

#

BUT THEY MAKE IT WORK

#

IT JUST WORKS

lapis wadi
#

Chainsword go 𝕭𝕽𝕽𝕽

echo vault
#

If they did a force axe design for Psyker how do you think it should look?

dense dawn
#

How does a chainsword even work

warm notch
#

The fact that “heretic” is just part of everyday normal vocabulary instead of, you know, being seen as something really extreme to toss out is amusing

dense dawn
#

It sso stupid

lapis wadi
#

I guess like an axe with a tech-y square on it

echo vault
#

Because I'm imagining it kinda like the antax axe but with tubes and wiring on it

lapis wadi
dense dawn
lapis wadi
#

I know

#

I love it

warm notch
#

But it’s so fucking cool

echo vault
#

Or more like this

how-viable-are-tac-axes-and-combat-axes-on-veteran-mainly-t4-v0-kkdsbi2va5ha1.png
warm notch
#

And it works

dense dawn
#

You can't do any damage unless you rev it up(realistically speaking)

echo vault
#

Really just whatever

9yUHNHJxpWF0oT5TCx4KVCGzsR2oRVU5oGMdYHXA_large.png
warm notch
#

It kinda revs up whenever you attack anyway

lapis wadi
#

Yeah, nobody's hitting anything with an unpowered chainsword?

warm notch
#

Otherwise the sword will get stuck

celest dome
lapis wadi
#

Listen when you wave the swords in-game, they're always on.
The special attack just kicks it into overdrive

dense dawn
#

Well I mean I guess the chain weapons are more single target weapons

echo vault
dense dawn
#

They aren't meant to hit multiple enemies at once

celest dome
#

But like with Force Swords, there can be many different patterns, just like in RL there were many types of axes and swords

echo vault
#

I want it to be like the necromancer scythe literally uctting things like butter but also being a single armored target damage dealer

lapis wadi
#

I kinda want a rapier, but I appreciate the dueling swords fill that niche
Maybe one day there'll be a rapier skin for them I can wish I had the aquilae to buy

dense dawn
#

What was the thing the necrons use

echo vault
#

phase something

dense dawn
#

That evaporates material it comes to contact with

echo vault
#

gauss

dense dawn
#

That's shits cool

celest dome
#

Gauss

lapis wadi
#

Khopesh? Oh their guns

echo vault
#

votann have actual gauss, in use in their railguns

dense dawn
#

The blades?

echo vault
#

no the guns

lapis wadi
#

Yeah one thing I hate about Necrons is the use of the word Gauss

dense dawn
#

Same thing?

echo vault
#

there's guns and cannons

dense dawn
#

No I mean the blades

echo vault
#

I mean there's plasma blades, and a darkstar axe that kills on even the slightest cut

storm jungle
echo vault
#

powerfists of multiple level from small to huge ones kahls have

dense dawn
#

They both cut through organic and inorganic material with ease

I really enjoy theology and learning about religions

We try our best

My girlfriend is catholic and I have lots of friends who are Muslim

lapis wadi
#

The necrons have a few melee weapons, the voidblade disinitegrates things it hits because of a similar reality-flickering
But these reality-blades are rare.

The more common ones are like vibro-blade that act like advanced power weapons

Linguistics actually inspired my interest in theology

Linguistics and art

my favorite part of being Turkish is using my culture in 40k and nobody noticing a thing.

#

My interest in smartsy stuff is curbed by being a Balkanite savage and being taught art and shit is pointless and stupid

#

I named my ingame Zealot "Father Evliyah" after a very famous turkish poet-explorer lol

I have a Christian upbringing and I've read the Bible cover to cover multiple times in my life

My boyfriend’s dad’s denomination of christianity (cult) prayed so weird I couldn’t stop cackling when I listened to them

YOUR kingdom come, YOU will be done

What denomination?

Or is it not even an institution

warm notch

Idk but it’s more of a cult

I had to visit a service once for his grandma’s funeral

And it was the funniest shit ever

I'll continue with my worship of the Machine God

I cant remember my dad's denomination. It was extremely fundamentalist. He didn't even celebrate Christmas

Genuinely I find a reassuring voice and headpats to technology seems to get it to work, it's getting weird.

And inspiring

#

I'm at the point where if I ever did have a serious mechanical issue I'd consider lighting incense to be a decent attempt

warm notch
#

What if the machine spirit is into it

#

And it works well

dense salmon
#

Which i think has awoken a level of spirituality in me I did not know existed

arctic talon
#

There’s a tradition in Taiwan where you put snacks on top of electronics

To appease them lol

There’s an excerpt of a tech priest kicking a death strike missile

When I searched up litany of accuracy

There's something completely badass about waving a thurible above a gun

arctic talon

Because it isn’t firing properly

Lol

dense salmon

That can't really be explained

It's basically canon

Anyways, sorry to clog lore chat with my own religious experience

arctic talon

It’s fine

#

It’s intresting to hear

warm notch
#

Wait so like

#

They worship machine spirits

lapis wadi
#

Russian Orthodox priests do something similar

warm notch
#

But they can be meanie bobeanies to them?

#

That doesn’t sound very pleasant

arctic talon
#

It’s if the machine spirit

Is being very uncooperative

#

Lol

lapis wadi
warm notch
#

What if that’s the will of the Omnissiah though

arctic talon
warm notch
#

True

lapis wadi
#

How could it be the Will of the Omnissiah for blessed Humanity to lose a battle?

warm notch
#

That is true

lapis wadi
#

Clearly whenever that happens they didn't pray hard enough

warm notch
#

They didn’t put enough seals

dense salmon
#

Honestly

#

Thuribles are cool

#

In any media

lapis wadi
#

Genuinely yeah, I super hope for Zealot to get a thurible-flail

dense salmon

It's cool in a way you don't even really need to explain

I wanna smack people with one

Someone said they saw a purity seal on an air conditioner lmao

Well that one makes sense

warm notch

AHAHA

lapis wadi
#

Imagine working in that manufactorum without an air conditioner

#

It really is a saviour

dense salmon
#

It works in churches because they are massive

#

But burning it on your house?

lapis wadi
#

I was thinking incense in general

dense salmon
#

You will smell frankincense and only frankincense for two weeks

lapis wadi

But yeah

My grand parents burn incense all the time

Lol

#

I need a tech priest to inspect my toaster

I think it’s been infected

#

Blasphemous 2 has a thurivle weapon

#

Its badass

#

In warfeame, harrow also uses a thurible as a weapon

lapis wadi
#

Wish it was actually a weapon

warm notch
#

It’s to lock enemies in place and buff himself

#

And uh

#

Flagellate himself

#

Maybe it is a weapon

arctic talon

It’s used to stun enemies

With the 1

I just need to speak to them

arctic talon

I mean.. it sure is exactly what is says

About the new frame dagath

For a second I thought you meant the bridge in the torrent

Haven't played siiiince just before Duviri

I'd call it a tool

The one Zola tells you lots of people jump from

arctic talon
dense salmon
#

I've played the game and know how it works

storm jungle
#

the one where people get pushed or constantly suicide from-

#

yep

#

lmao

warm notch
#

And the implication is that it wasn’t taboo for orokin elite to have relationships with their warframe

arctic talon
#

Having sex with lol

warm notch
#

💀💀💀

arctic talon
#

And then she got wounded

#

When they got jealous of her relationship with a pet horse

warm notch
#

I do NOT remember that

#

Is there a voice clip anywhere

arctic talon
#

And then she got turned into a Warframe by Ballas

lapis wadi
#

Haven't had that Zola line yet

arctic talon
#

Lol

green loom
#

Yeah

dense salmon
#

I love warframe but the lore is light-years away from 40k

green loom
#

In the fkn water silo mission

#

With Zola as mission lead

dense salmon
#

But recent updates have established a lot of cool story beats

warm notch
#

1999 is canon in warframe

dense salmon
#

I remember when warframe had no lore

warm notch
#

This is so cool

arctic talon
#

The lore on continuity is freaky

#

Tbh

warm notch
#

I can’t wait to play Halo

arctic talon
#

Especially with how the orokin you know

lapis wadi
#

I kinda tapped out taking warframe lore seriously after heart of deimos

arctic talon
#

Paraded naked children through a theater

#

And then killed any who didn’t get bought

dense salmon
#

The grineer used to not even be clones

#

The lotus was a syndicate of adsassins that warframes worked for

#

Tenno werent a thing

lapis wadi
#

Grineer would make a killer guard regiment

warm notch
#

My favorite lore tidbit is how Hydroid didn’t get a prime trailer for years

dense salmon
#

It honestly was just a spiritual successor to dark sector

green loom
#

Warframe has a one up on one game at least

warm notch
#

And that it took DE until tennocon 2020 to finally make him one

green loom
#

That game being Destiny 2 KEKW_ogryn

dense salmon
warm notch

#

I BOUGHT THE SKIN

#

ITS SO FUCKING GOOD

lapis wadi
#

They reworked Hydroid?

warm notch
#

Yes

#

And they also semi-reworked corrosive

lapis wadi
#

Okay FINALLY they have my attention

dense salmon
#

New warframe players don't remember when grineer spoke plain English

green loom
#

Don't you love it when the company grabs the content you paid for and violently chops it out of the game smarf

lapis wadi
#

I wanted to use my rad admiral jacket skin for ages

warm notch
#

Hydroid can now apply corrosive that deals extra damage and can full strip enemies

arctic talon
#

Hydroid is unfathomably broken

#

Now lol

#

I love 1000% corrosive damage

Judge or something like that

yeah thats Judge

#

you can tell because he doesnt sound like an asshole

hasty coral
#

It shows how individuals I’m the imperium truly are kind

#

And we can see glimpses of ourselves in even this twisted future for humanity

#

It’s the little things like this, but I feel like it adds a lot to show that even the most insane members of the imperium ultimately have good in them

#

Sure he wants everyone to pray to the Emperor but he doesn’t have to offer his help, but he does so anyway because he wants to help the Ogryn express himself in prayer

tawdry mist
#

question for the lore wizards; what's a bone 'ead implant?

#

and I'm guessing it's suggested that these implants are given to the playable ogryns?

arctic talon
#

Only one ogryn has a Bone'ead implant and its the Brawler iirc

#

And the uh

#

implant he has is broken

jade holly

On the bright side Brawler smells good to be around

#

How does it exactly do that lmao

arctic talon
#

They make brain better

#

Idk

#

I'm not sure how it works lol

warm notch
#

But I mean, for an entire super nation that casually lobotomizes its citizens

#

They would know how to

#

you know, unlobotomize

arctic talon
#

Lobotomization is a one way trip

#

tbf

warm notch
#

In other words, lobotomize^-2

arctic talon
#

they're chopping a portion of the brain

warm notch
#

No no no you dont understand

#

Instead of lobotomizing

#

They're doing the opposite

#

. . . which is . . . unlobotomizing

#

uh idk

arctic talon
#

Oh

#

yeah

plush mason
#

so Matt Ward made Trazyn

arctic talon
#

Yes

#

he wrote almost all the modern necron lore

plush mason

ok all the hate against him is fully unjustified now

warm notch
#

Unjustified? Hate? In 40k?

echo vault
#

Are there versions of bolt pistols that come with square LMG style box magazines?

Because I think that would look really cool like the box magazine look for umbra ferrox bolters and the storm bolters in the tartaros set

Anyone else get burnt out of the game?

I think I ground too hard

It was easy to eyeball it personally lmao

But if you don't have that specific mission yeah it would be tough

Sad. My friends are alll still mossing it

#

Try it on

#

the Assasination mission

#

the train station one

#

In the opening bridge

patent ivy
#

I got it done. Hardest part was timing it

sullen cape
#

Eassist is the end of hab drako

patent ivy
#

Always would blow up above or right after it landed

#

Damn, but 2k hours? Do you just delete characters and start new ones?

#

I haven't hit 1k on a single game yet unless you include the Destiny games as a whole

storm jungle
#

Nope, been with the same 5 characters I made since the game release.

#

the gameplay is just too fun, know nothing like it

It's incredibly damn fun beating the shit out of rats/heretics

arctic talon
#

Gameplay feels so damn good

#

nothing scratches the itch

queen laurel
#

yeah core Darktide gameplay is so fucking fun

#

but of course i still suggest taking brakes when the game is starting to become stale

do something else when you want to stop killing heretics for like only a few days or something

I wish there was a weapon that felt like the spear + shield

reading Death and the End Vol2 and at the last page for today before I continue

the transports switching to Luna Wolf colors because of the amount of warp-fuckery is so funny

I know they do this "serve in death" nonsense but is your average cogitator just a skull with a computer jammed in?

or is there life in there

the former

#

the similarity between servitors and servo skulls is in name only

#

wouldn't need ten seasons. more like 3

well, 2

#

3 if you do a season that's just an anthology of primarch backstories

the dream would be a series made by syama pederson but I might as well buy lotto tickets with a hope like that

hazy pecan

that'd be nice

currently he's working on 2 of his own projects in between 'professional work' whatever that means

hazy pecan
#

yeah hey

#

took him 4 years or so just to make astartes

green loom
#

Yup

#

If he did do something for GW he'd probably have to cut down on quality/streamline stuff, and then that would be the thing everyone complains about

celest dome
#

I once again have someone who think the second Hive is the Underhive Sitgryn

normal light
celest dome
#

No

#

No it could not

normal light
#

Because Tertium before its final form was a couple of Hives

green loom
#

The second hive would have it's own underhive KEKW_ogryn

celest dome
#

A Hive is a Hive, a Hive built on a previous Hive would still be 1 Hive

normal light
green loom
#

We've specifically never been to the second hive

celest dome
#

Like Tertium is a Hive Cluster

#

It's a semantic debate

#

More so than theorycrafting

normal light
median marsh
#

looking from Mourningstar deck i counted 4 additional spires that could be hives in their own merit due to their distance from Tertium

#

5 if you count one right beside it

celest dome
#

Those would likely be counted as part of the Tertium cluster.

(i also noticed that the valkyrie that leaves mournigstar is flying sideways KEKW_ogryn )
