If he said that it would still not even be top ten most cruel things parents said about their children in that series
dusk patrol
All of the top ten are from Tywin
storm jungle
LOL
dusk patrol
The worst part is they’re mostly true and are sick burns
storm jungle
Yeah thats the thing
the first seasons are legendary because they adapt from the book
some of the lines there are fucking brutal
and you sometimes get stuff like this
"A mind needs books like a sword needs a whetstone."
green loom
Cersei becoming a superpower is one hell of a meme
dusk patrol
The line where he tells Tyrion the time he put the house in front of his own desires by not throwing him into the sea when he was born

In season 1 even their original stuff has some high quality scenes, like the scene with Robert and Cersei isn't in the books and it's one of my favourite scenes in the entire show.
storm jungle

dusk patrol
Yeah let’s throw away six seasons of character development for Jamie
storm jungle
Also Jamie's thing wasn't character assassination, it was literally character destruction
like holy fuck
dusk patrol
Jfc it still makes me mad

I really do love how the moment they ran out of books the show just spirals down like a ship going into orbit and exploding

At least the Hound got a good ending.

I hate it so much, in the previous episode they established Swooping at the fleet with your dragon is a bad idea and it gets her dragon killed and then in the next episode, they just defeat the fleet by swooping it with her dragon.

All apart of his master plan of course

Oh here's my chance to say this while being technically on topic
Netflix's Avatar is removing the war in Ba Sing Se
dusk patrol
That was a satire blog post
pale onyx
so saints are essentially daemon princess of the emperor right

Daemon Princes yes, not all of them are women
crisp heath
That was a satire blog post
The Onion is the only reputable source of news because satire can't make up anything dumber than reality anymore

An example is saints don’t get banished really
crisp heath
I'm sorry Dilara I'm just always correct about fiction, especially when I'm wrong

I feel bad for people that didn't watch the Last Airbender honestly

rocky gale
I heard they're removing the Sexism from ATLA for the live action
arctic talon
They’re making sokka less sexist or something
Pakku however still has that dog in him
And by dog I mean sexism
Tbh maybe they’ll just resolve it faster
Idk
arctic talon
They don’t want sokka’s first couple lines to be sexist
dusk patrol
I hope the show is good but I’m not holding my breathe
arctic talon
Lol
rocky gale
I think they said that they worried it would make the character unlikable, but like that's the point Sokka is supposed to be unlikable at the start, he grows as a person overtime.
arctic talon
Yeah
storm jungle
Yeah it basically removes his entire charater arc for the beginning of the journey.
"it doesnt work with live action" is like removing Istvaan Dropsite Massacre from a 40k movie because "its too violent"

The iron hands were considered one of the shattered legions right?
rocky gale
Raven Guard, Salamanders and Iron Hands
unborn phoenix
No one I watch brings up the iron hands loses beside y'know ferrus
Mainly raven guard and salamanders
Raven guard were small to begin with the the massacre didn't really help things
dusk patrol
Salamanders had less than 1000 post Istvaan
Raven Gard were 3-4k left
Iron hands lost about half their legion
Give or take
So 50,000ish marines left
rocky gale
I'm not an Iron Hands expert, but I don't think they had many marines on Istvaan, most of them were ambushed arriving in orbit after the rest of the forces and were more scattered than destroyed
dusk patrol
The main blow to the IH was their entire high command got killed mostly
They did a lot of guerrilla warfare post Istvaan
Meduson almost killed three traitor primarchs at one point which led to Horus giving Tybalt Marr a bunch of men to go kill them
It varied, they pop up in small numbers at various conflicts
Beta Garmon was probably their biggest loss in numbers besides Istvaan V
They also joined Guilliman’s fleet to Terra at the end of they were able
Generally speaking there was a lot of mixed groups of the shattered legions, salamanders had basically no dedicated groups
They would often take on loyalist forces who were cut off too
unborn phoenix
Right right cool
Corvus got the go ahead from dad to stay out of the fight and go replenish your ranks during most of the heresy
dusk patrol
He tried but that got disrupted by the Alpha Legion
They replenished what they could but they mostly just fought as a guerrilla faction
Shattered legion ships harassed and slowed town the traitor fleet as much as they could
And attacked their supply centers and what not
unborn phoenix
Yeah I heard about those parts
Gene stock sabotaged corvus had to put them down and he was in mourning for a year then said never more to his legion and left
unborn phoenix
How do people even like the alpha legion they're just like leg hair that iches when you wear socks

40k works on the whims of miniature sales. Nothing is impossible.
but as Marble said atm Abby is the Horus figure
Horus also doesn't get his soul obliterated in the new book
and just gets stabbed by an athame blade, so who the fuck knows
nocturne crest
Tbh, I heard that the Emperor just reduces Horus to bones?
storm jungle
Uh kinda
its just very loosely worded, it doesnt say his soul got obliterated
so idk

that was the original lore

otherwise we'd be around for awhile

I could have watched three seasons of just the family tensions before the actual Dance

WE NEED CONTENT
the even crazier part is the entirety of Dance was written in summary.
the writers literally had to fill in the space HH style

but the ACTUAL major events maybe yeah

It makes it a lot more clear

Halo Rings absolutely destroy any organic being.
Flood Spores included

No they would be destroyed.
Orks are not that OP, neither are their spores.
Literally the goddamn Halo novels
Flood spores are a lot more advanced than Ork spores and even they were completely targetted to be eradicated. Same applies to ork spores.
Halo rings can also target certain cells in the nervous system, which includes, but is not limited to, neurons, by harmonizing all neurological frequencies.

He did a good job making a race which is alien and completely beyond a race which is alien and completely beyond the protagonists.

It would have to have some.
Idk about all but Bungie kept a lot of the same dudes for a long time.

surely this was a great idea

orks cannot compare to that
no even krorks would get absolutely railed by the Halo rings
They still have organs and other necessities to keep moving
fungus are still organisms

It wasn’t but hey
this thing is impossible to fully wipe out, making a super weapon that will kill all life is the only way. (but let's keep some of it safe from the super weapon just in case)

You're comparing a normal fungus to a space altering disease
dusk patrol
It destroys all traces of the flood and its food supply to ensure it cannot survive if any did, which some did by various means

The flood is literally the corrupted form of the precursors
orks are just fungus
That is been made a little bit more advanced by the old ones

It’s hard to stress how insane peak Forerunners were
dusk patrol
They were able to produce massive capital ships which were crewed entirely by AI at a rate of one per second from one factory
queen laurel
They literally hunted the precursors to the point that they decided to dip

Maybe, hard to say
orchid lark
Forerunners shouldve just invented Daemons to hide in their computers
just like Cyberpunk
rose thorn
forerunners should have run faster smh
dusk patrol
They felt they failed the galaxy and that the newer races should inherit it
Which is why they chose to not really survive as a race
orchid lark
forerunners should have run faster smh
Fiverunners
they should just do more

Ohh yeah I think besides Jurgen male blanks are very very much not mentioned

I thought the sisters of silence lore kinda gave some more info
Like really good ones obviously get sent to the culexus temples
Whilst ones like Jurgen or a bit more than Jurgy have to like
Help make more blanks
queen laurel
yep

It would be cool to some sisters of silence have like, a name of culexus assasin attached to them, to show that theyre of this lineage
“Well Jurgen, im retiring from the inquisition. Im dropping you by a sisters of silence convent. Good luck.”

only time Jurgen ever stopped looking at Porno-slates
storm jungle
this is like horrible lmao
- Psykers aboard the Blackships were chained with anti-psychic metals and subjected to psychic-suppressor machines. They were fed a little so that they would starve and they were denied sleep by a bombardment of flashing lights and clamorous bells. The holds' floors were uncomfortable to lay on and the discomfort was compounded by the fact that the holds did not have toilets or any washing facilities. The bodily waste of the psykers would collect into slops beneath the holds' floor grilles. All of this added to the collective psychic despair of the prisoners ensured that they were exhausted beyond the hope of quick recovery. They were laid out on the hard floor crammed together to the point that they touched each other whenever they moved.
- The crews of the Blackships were chosen from the humans with the least psychic potential. Even the servitors were tested for any remnant of psychic talent.

it's a pretty good game word of advice though
it throws a lot of combat at you
So that part of the game can get rather stale real quick
orchid lark
We read the book in our voice, and we choose the speed in which we engage
Games by design are interactive, thats just the slight difference is all
queen laurel
important dialogue in the game is voiced
So you don't have to worry on that department but on the other parts
orchid lark
important dialogue in the game is voiced
im okay with this actually, good to know
queen laurel
Yeah there are texts with no voice acting
It's just important ones that have the voices
queen laurel
im okay with this actually, good to know
the voice actors are pretty good too
Some dialogue are not voiced some are
not
orchid lark
yeah i prefer that for some reason
i cant deal with full dialogue
and i wont pay attention with no dialogue
so having the half half helps me more
queen laurel
and i wont pay attention with no dialogue
After spending a lot of time playing BG3 I've gotten used to dialogue
Rogue trader is also pretty good in the voice acting department
like i said so you don't have to worry about the voices sounding a bit off

Funny thing about this one, is that community just like in return of reckoning is reviving the game

and that was more fun and obviously polished

So things that could be solved in a different attempt, maybe with a dev team that’s more down to earth with their limitations and maybe experience in the genre

theres too much to add for a 40k game to be a 40K GAME.
