gender =/= sex

green loom
#

It's an important identity thing that they lost when they became robutts

tough haven
#

its just whether you define or present yourself as more masculine or feminine, or some mix of the two

arctic talon
#

Phaeron Nektarrik at some point either killed or removed Phaeron Onryx from power lol

tough haven
#

or neither

arctic talon
#

thank you GW very cool

green loom
#

Dysphoria is a major Necron theme so this is not shocking at all

storm jungle
#

Also necrons can shape their body however they want with mental commands, since they are based on egyptian culture it also has some other stuff to do with political clout and whatnot, the trans necron in the book basically went from being a Matriarch to Patriarch due to these reasons.

queen laurel

hey man you literally misspelled a word once so bad you turned it into a slur in my language

Not really sane too. Because his siblings that he ate are driving him insane, by cursing him mentally. Unless he regurgates them out of course.

arctic talon
#

they're also blue

storm jungle
#

so the concept of gender still exists with them

#

they are just robots now

arctic talon

Yeah necrons coincidentally aren't the equivalent of silverware or an SSD

Imperial politics colorized

isnt there one dynasty that have bodies of gold because they where rich as hell before the transference?

storm jungle

theres even a pirate necron

Nihilakh dynasty love flaunting wealth

plush mason

so they still feel like they have to breathe and shit but cant sometime

arctic talon
#

and uh counting money

green loom

iirc their crown worlds treasurer

Well kinda like "guys" and "dude", I guess they use "boyz" the same way

arctic talon

no

#

its not Trazyns money

though trazyn is filthy rich

green loom

the entire dynasty is super wealthy

Trazyn likes to trade things.

arctic talon
#

as are all their overlords

Besides stealing.

Thanks everyone for clearing up few more things about the 40k. It's always difficult to dig up info about 40k. digging one thing most of the time leads to 10 things that needs to be learnt first.

queen laurel
#

The space wolf is prime neckbeard for that one

tough haven
arctic talon
#

aren't ork pronouns like they, boyz, git

green loom
#

Ye

queen laurel
arctic talon
#

yeah

#

I forgor

#

I think war of the beast has the beast use he

green loom
#

It probably only got highlighted since it's a ghaz book and usually authors wouldn't care enough to think about it KEKW_ogryn

queen laurel
# arctic talon yeah

I mean like their units are literally called slugga boyz ard'boyz, burna Boyz skar boyz

arctic talon
#

OH thats right

queen laurel
#

They use boyz so much that male pronouns aren't outrageous

arctic talon
#

the ;iber xenologis ork flasghgit

#

he says he and his boyz

#

were looking for uh

#

the word for scrap

green loom
#

Well in this case that'd be mostly irrelevant since boyz in Ork speak would technically not be gendered

queen laurel
#

Yeah fair

misty brook
#

Oh right. Perpetuals will likely be more to appear too. Since Erda said they were the next evolution of Man-Kind. But that's her saying it. So far there's only the Emperor, Vulkan, and Anval Thawn.

arctic talon
#

Thawn is weird

#

he gets mentioned once in recent lore

#

and its him dying 💀

green loom
#

How'd he die

arctic talon
#

he got bisected by a chaos lord

#

He's fine

#

probably

misty brook
#

Yea.

#

Though a Perpetual being naturally made from being born from normal humans would be something.

#

It's easier to make them artificial though.

arctic talon
#

he's died like twice in recent lore

#

once in 7e got impaled by Nikari and 8e he got bisected

queen laurel
#

Dying twice

arctic talon
#

uh

#

I mean yeah

queen laurel
#

God f****** dammit

arctic talon
#

he's a 40k character who's immortal

#

they tend to job

queen laurel

Wouldn't he literally melt

arctic talon

perpeutal bullshit

#

lol

#

ig

queen laurel
#

On the first contact

arctic talon
#

idfk

#

ask Thawn

#

he doesn't get mentioned

#

GW kind of treats him like the weird black sheep of the grey knights named character family

queen laurel
misty brook
# queen laurel On the first contact

Perptuals can regenerate really fast. You have to do a shit ton of damage to actual faze them, tire them out enough, and kill them with special weapons.

arctic talon
#

either way the two times thawn has died have been via extremely traumatic injury lol

queen laurel
arctic talon
#

idfk

#

aegis armor bullshit

#
  • he's a prepetual
queen laurel
#

Considering their literally the embodiments of rot and disease

#

Oh f*** it i'm not even going to think about it anymore

arctic talon
#

he's a named character he gets to violate rules

queen laurel
#

Some people are just f****** something

arctic talon
#

either way GW doesn't seem to want to touch him lol

#

bcs uh

#

idfk

#

if GW gives thawn a mini + rules again

#

I will literally drink paint

Joining Agrax

misty brook
#

I would really like GW to make a devouring entity that is associated with the Void. You know the Nothing that was once Creation itself, before the Big Bang that created the C'tan and universe.

queen laurel
#

You should be fine don't worry

misty brook
#

Could a Gretchin evolve into a Ork if it go big enough or no?

arctic talon
#

no

#

just a very big and angry gretchin

queen laurel
#

It's literally just in their biology

misty brook
#

Okay. I think they get 'cleverer' then. It would be funny to see a Krork react to seeing a modern day Ork and see how devolved they've become. Though there's that one Ork who talks about smart stuff, but doesn't know what he is saying; Talker the Madboy.

arctic talon
#

they do get bigger tbf

#

I find it funny how every species in Destiny has a method of physically growing larger but humans

misty brook
#

Has anyone tried to make an artificial Pariah or breed the gene into the larger population of the Imperium?

arctic talon
#

no and also no

#

at least as far as we know

#

well I guess technically the exorcists

#

but not really

#

but breeding the gene no

orchid lark

The blanks do “procreate” with themselves

Since theyre the only ones who can tolerate one another

plush mason

Its how theres always sisters of silence and culexus assassins

orchid lark
dusk patrol
#

There’s always those because they’re actively hunting for them

dusk patrol

The Inquisition, Sisters and Culexus temple among others are always looking for them

queen laurel

nice

crystal forum

is it not fucked up that i thought white dwarf referred to the type of star

plush mason

i think that was the point

queen laurel

Yeah they are stars that have exhausted their nuclear fuel

I think that was just a super duper powerful pariah

Is abadon cringe or cool?

#

I think he’s kinda cool

storm jungle
#

Hes very cool

#

you just like him or dislike him or are just indifferent

queen laurel
#

both are mortal champions but only one is riding a three headed undivided Daemon

storm jungle
#

Archaon is just leagues above yea

crisp heath
#

Abadon says demons are cringe and only tools

#

Which is kinda based

#

Seeing how they ruined his dad

outer wave
#

Thats the entire Iron Warriors bit though

#

They're just mini Abaddons by that point

celest dome
#

Dorghar really changed in AoS

queen laurel
celest dome
#

Iirc ye

#
Age of Sigmar Wiki

Dorghar is Archaon's Daemonic mount, his massive winged form swollen upon the souls of his vanquished foes. Such is the fell sorcery coursing through Dorghar's blood that the foes he consumes...

queen laurel

bro had too much daemonroids

outer wave
#

Feed him a slaaneshi champ and a GHR champ

#

It needs the quintfecta

crystal forum
#

fantasy chaos goes so much harder than 40k chaos

viral halo
#

Archaon is the chad of chads

#

They should juice him up even more and make him a Full blown daemon prince

celest dome
#

I think it would cheapen out his story if he became a Deamon Prince

outer wave
#

^

#

I feel it would defeat his purpose as someone trying to get away from chaos

#

Or realizing that chaos is awful and that he and the rest of humanity (his tribe, really) can do so much better

#

Unless Idk he became a minor chaos god of humanity or some shit, but that would be wack

celest dome
#

Honestly a thing I could find awesome for Archaon's Host is if they managed to find a Sigmarite forge and started using them to make their own Stormcasts

crystal forum
#

the actual based version of abaddon

outer wave
#

Archaeon becoming his own faction, where instead of working for chaos in the hopes of desolation of the entirety of the world, they represent the coming of a new age (not one thats good per se but better than whatever ruin Chaos has in mind) could be cool

#

I dunno enough of AoS Archaeon though

green loom

Wonder what that is

celest dome

Look like a titan ?

I just wanna make Iron Warriors guy...

hallow plover

#

Now that I'm getting a closer look at the multiplayer aspects it seems the story on this one will be on the weaker side

#

Compared to the first where the story was considered the highlight instead of the multiplayer

green loom
outer wave
#

Tbf I dont think the story was strong in the first game

queen laurel
#

Ohh no definitely

green loom
#

Space Marine 1 was

#

Fine

queen laurel

it was weak but the multiplayer from what I can gather didn't seem to attract a lot of people as well

as call in's maybe

crystal forum

you're a fake fan

but what I've heard BFV was pretty decent and one of the better modern bf games

# spring cairn bf5 iwo jima, ur welcome

I’m telling ya, if they started off with Pacific Theater, guarantee you it would be a success for BFV. Originality of 1942 reimagined with modern tech. IT was only at the tail did I manage to bother touching it

spring cairn

like totally undeserved

shadow plover
#

yeah seemed like it wasn't really a bad game, wasn't just interested in it the slightest

green loom
#

Bad

crystal forum
#

next they'll do civil war and have tanks in it or some shit

leaden pilot
#

I enjoyed that V had an option of conquest, but with less vehicles

spring cairn
#

yeah just the transport that was p good

shadow plover
#

well 2042 makes sense because of 2142 which was just what if 1942 but two hundred years in the future and this one was the middle child

#

and the left out one

could have been a ww2 game and nobody would have noticed

i mean it's true but

no one would've played a "real" ww1 bf

It's a fair assessment on a historical side, but tbh they're supposed to be games, not historical reenactment 🤷

winter vessel
#

Gameplay I enjoyed it. I didn’t nitpick on it so much because my understanding of it was fairly limited, and the accounts from any living surviving members, who are likely dead at this point, are not gonna make it as accurate.

#

And rarely are the FPS that take place in WW1

celest dome
#

Playing pseudo historical settings is more to my taste than modern ones

spring cairn
#

bf1 had a distinct lack of french and trenches before the dlc dropped i'll give you that

True

yeah the historical inaccuracies are whatever

the game just didn't feel like fun shit

why make WW1 tanks go 60 mph and biplanes have miniguns when modern period is RIGHT THERE

because modern stuff looks like shit

and it was great

but slightly related, cannot wait for the game '83 now that it's back in production, god I hope they nail the game feel like with RS2 Vietnam

yeah but that doesn't pretend it looks cool

nice

#

thought they canned it for good

shadow plover

they did a small press release last month iirc

spring cairn

doesn't make me optimistic about the end result tho

Executive brilliance will still always be managing to sell the same gameplay for 163 times

when they canned it they did say it was temporary

Good thing tbh

With their codex

It is good, but some of them are odd to see

#

Like Zepharim used to be the cheaper version compared to Seraphim, but now they're the more expensive option

#

Like 60/120 to 90/180 is a huge leap

#

Their new rules/statline must be amazing

I think it’s bcs of the zepharim melee bomb

We said it a bit above

I'm not preordering

Yep not pre-ordering too

Basically the "worst" it can be is just Good.

Im assuming a semi-shaky launch with a ton of bugs but fun gameplay.

Which is a good thing more content is better than you know nothing at all

But too much can also be too much i'm looking at you destiny

Probably framerate issues at launch but generally solid

queen laurel

It looks like the optimization seems to be decent

green loom
gray umbra
#

Yeah i just generally expect frame issues for game releases lol

green loom

The presentation/artstyle looks good, gameplay remains to be seen

I'm expecting it to play like the first but faster

gray umbra

I just want to make my reiver's cheeks clap

Yeah and more punchy with the weap effects

queen laurel

#

As someone that really enjoys SM1, its really hard to not get excited over this new one. So im bracing for the worst. But if it comes out and is just "good" ill be very happily surprised.

wintry scarab
# queen laurel The first one was good for its time

the thing is that ive only been propper into 40k since the annoncment of darktide. So i have no rose tinted glasses and i still had a blast with it. It is probably because of the theme itself though. I see why some think it was mid.

queen laurel

Dawn of war 4 actually has what

And the multiplayer was like i said not really that deep

Usually if a game is in a setting you like your enjoyment of it is considerably heightened

Or colossus

Yeah that was a colossus i forgot

wintry scarab

Yet to this day, i think Anthem has a sick artstyle and concept. Execution on the other hand-

arctic talon
#

Anthem had a great idea

queen laurel
#

Yeah

arctic talon
#

it just

#

uh

queen laurel
#

The suits are sick

arctic talon
#

LMAO

#

Bioware fucked up

#

so hard

#

its not even funny

queen laurel
#

Like they are cool they do flashy stuu

arctic talon
#

The fact they removed flying from the game

#

and had to be told to put it back in

queen laurel
#

Like the colossus literally my perfect heavy armor gameplay type beat

arctic talon
#

because like

#

lets be real here who the fuck would have played Anthem without flying

#

that was like

#

the thing

#

it was advertising lol

queen laurel
#

You know the flying that was literally advertised in the trailers

arctic talon
#

Yes

#

EA had to tell them to add it back in

queen laurel
#

My brother in f****** christ

arctic talon
#

because uh

queen laurel
#

What the f*** were they thinking

arctic talon
#

hey this is the thing ya'll were advertising

#

why isn't it in the game

#

also traversal sucks without flying

wintry scarab

I just remember that no matter what gender you picked, your interceptor suit just always had a fat ass.

arctic talon

you say that like its a downside

queen laurel

I did not buy anthem until after it died

anthem is so sad

but nah they just took it out back and killed it lol

Oh that

They're actually planning to bring it back

Well not the people who made them you know the fans who love the game

wintry scarab
# arctic talon I did not buy anthem until after it died

I pre ordered it. Yup, i was that guy. But im not gonna lie. I had a pretty good time with it. I dont think my money went to waste nor would i take it back. Would be nice if they actually kept making the game tho and didnt just cancel the whole thing right as there was supposed to be a game rework update that skeleton team was working on.

queen laurel
#

It's like warhammer age of reckoning

queen laurel
#

Where people just like gather up the assets and stick them back together and to making a new game

The moment it got called a destiny killer

Or you know make a new one

it was fucking over 💀

Theres an eternal crusade private server rn

God damn it jack

But i remember when they were like "oh yeah this is gonna be like planetside 2"

#

And then it was just space marine multiplayer

#

With ELVES

arctic talon

oh also the fact the guns

sucked

queen laurel

Eternal crusade had other fractions right like orks

in Anthem really didn't help

getting turned into a warframe might as well just be dying lol

you get turned into someone whos in eternal pain at worse and a coma at best

yeah

arctic talon

it was both a punishment and an experiment

queen laurel

Sheesh

They had to go with the two in one package

I know warframe is very crazy but like damn

celest dome

oh also the fact your ||poor operator transferences into Jade when she starts uh "giving birth" so to speak is horrid||

arctic talon

Pretty normal looking frame tbf

wintry scarab
queen laurel

Oh yeah where do warframes draw their power

arctic talon
#

space hell

#

The Void

#

thats how they power their abilities

Oh they use the draw power from another dimension method

Operators are both a battery/the pilot

for frames anyways

she still looks fine

tbh

wintry scarab

yeah

its only odd during her 4

#

also its not like The Jade replicated by the foundry and helminth ||is pregnant||

wintry scarab
#

I mean, if you look at the warframe in game, you can tell somethings off though.

arctic talon
#

considering the blueprint reconstructs her at the time of her death

queen laurel

Warframe biology is something

arctic talon

They're just fucked up mutated humans

without organs really

wintry scarab
# queen laurel Warframe biology is something

ive been playing this game for 9 years, and kid me was always so interested with what a warframe really is. When we got our answer, i was not disappointed. And my fav quest alongside that

queen laurel
wintry scarab
arctic talon
#

I'm suprised the infestation didn't just uh

#

eat it up

queen laurel
#

Oh yeah what about nidus

arctic talon
#

his eyes are practically speaking redundent organs

queen laurel
#

Isn't he a warframe that is like infected by something

arctic talon
#

he doesn't have skin

#

nidus is just focused on using the Infestation

queen laurel
#

So mutating and having my skin removed can give me that cool power

#

Metal

arctic talon
#

well if you were just infested you wouldn't end up like that

#

you'd end up as something different

queen laurel

💀

queen laurel
#

Sorry man the intrusive thoughts won

arctic talon
#

fun fact Bungie confirmed what happens when a human/awoken consumes Ether in destiny

#

besides being a hallucinogenic its the steroid to end all steroids

arctic talon
#

Unless you're a guardian no

queen laurel
#

Yeah I guessed that

arctic talon
#

your poor heart would explode and your bones would shatter

green loom
#

I imagine the withdrawal is pretty bad in any case

queen laurel
#

Fictional steroids tend to have that side effect

wintry scarab
arctic talon
#

you literally have to keep your flesh and bones together forcibly with The Light

#

if you fuck up you die painfully

green loom
#

Doesn't ether make the Eliksni grow

arctic talon
#

yes

#

either via your spine being shattered or rupturing multiple organs

green loom
#

I guess their bodies are made to actually process all that growth

arctic talon
#

yeah

green loom
#

Unlike us

#

I mean we crack when we grow a bit faster than normal

arctic talon
#

I mean Eliksni can grow to huge sizes pretty fast

#

but Eliksni bodies can properly handle the like

#

"growth"

wintry scarab
#

I will say, considering ive quit destiny after the lightfall incident as i just couldnt take it anymore, seeing how people are saying the finale is really good is giving me some fomo.

arctic talon
#

You can just watch it

#

If you want

queen laurel
# arctic talon "growth"

I got a fun question for you

How well would a guardian fair against like an all out attack from warhammer factions

arctic talon
#

Fucking die lol

queen laurel
#

What

#

I thought they're like overpowered

arctic talon
#

I mean

#

They’re still flesh and blood

#

But yeah they can endure serious punishment

#

But like

wintry scarab
# arctic talon You can just watch it

Yeah, idk though. It does feel strange sticking with it since d1 beta and then quitting right before the end. Idk. I may just wait for a sale or something.

arctic talon
#

If a lightbearers ghost dies it’s the end of the line

queen laurel
arctic talon
#

Yes

#

Assuming the ghost doesn’t just wait

#

But destiny guns are

#

Kind of horrifying

queen laurel
#

Yeah i heard they are kind of fucked

arctic talon
#

I mean if you think about it

#

a cabal slug rifle

#

is just a bolter

queen laurel
#

I don't know much about destiny lore but i will assume you are right

wintry scarab
#

And then you have a sniper that is just a god that lives off death. So they took the shape of a sniper and gave themselves to us so it can never starve.

arctic talon
# queen laurel I don't know much about destiny lore but i will assume you are right

"''The workhorse of the Cabal field arsenal, this weapon's apparent simplicity belies the technology behind it. Each round is a micro rocket capable of efficient operation in varying environmental and gravitational conditions. Standard-issue warheads mount a duplex explosive that combines an armor-piercing penetrator with a flesh-shredding shrapnel bus."

queen laurel
#

Holy f*** that is literally a bolter

arctic talon
#

the cabal might as well be Space marines

#

but less racist

wintry scarab
arctic talon
#

This is considered the "light" version

#

they get bigger lol

#

The heavy slug thrower might as well be a death sentence to anyone on the other end of it

wintry scarab
arctic talon
#

yes

#

we use a Psion Slug rifle

arctic talon
#

and the thing is still fucking huge

arctic talon
queen laurel
#

Where it just shoots a giant shell and you just say good luck to the guy on the receiving end

arctic talon
#

It shoots bigger shells then the standard slug rifle + faster

queen laurel
#

All right

arctic talon
#

the Slug Launcher

queen laurel
#

My god

arctic talon
#

It fires out a giant projectile thats charged with energy

#

it also fucking flashbangs you and gives you a severe concussion

#

if it misses/doesn't kill you

wintry scarab
arctic talon
#

There's also a rifle variant used by Psion Optus's

#

this one shoots faster

arctic talon
#

Its based on a Vex Torch hammer

queen laurel
#

You mean like the nanobots

#

From grey goo

arctic talon
#

yes

#

and then it explodes

#

it turns your matter

#

into explosives

queen laurel
#

Fuck me

#

Guardian abilities aren't that ridiculous but their weapons

#

Oh boy

arctic talon
#

These aren't guardian weapons these are the weapons that get shot

#

at guardians lol

queen laurel
#

Hahaha fuck

arctic talon
#

Guardians can survive getting hit by them generally

#

emphesis on generally

#

stuff like snipers usually just blow their heads off though

queen laurel
# arctic talon emphesis on generally

All right let's have fun a little bit

A fully armed ork attack force that have multiple fleets and basically every single type of weapon you can think of going up against every single faction in destiny

arctic talon
#

Density wins via bullshit superweapons

#

or just Vex

queen laurel
#

Ah yes

arctic talon
#

or the hive

queen laurel
#

The super weapon they have just lying around the f****** basement for some reason

arctic talon
#

The Hive are like Orks

#

they grow from war and violence

queen laurel
#

The result will be hilarious to see

#

And definitely not cause a galactic civil war that will wipe out thousands and millions of lives

radiant lance
arctic talon
#

Humanity yeah

#

not the Hive/Cabal

radiant lance
#

Or the black fleet

#

Those are some scary shit

arctic talon
#

fucking pyramid ships

#

if its just humanity yeah

#

humanity is fucking doomed lol

arctic talon
#

lol

radiant lance
#

A pyramid ship legitimately turned the moon titan into an oval while fucking with gravity

#

I think in ground combat, guardians are just respawning psykers

arctic talon
#

funniest thing is the strongest hive god in terms of raw conflict hasn't even been directly fought yet

#

thank you Xivu

#

very cool

radiant lance
#

We're just stealing all of her power, and she's locked out of her respawn world

arctic talon
#

tbf now she has full access to her power

#

its not bottled up anymore

queen laurel
arctic talon
#

but yeah she's cut out of her home

#

until she figures out a way back in

radiant lance
#

Also, isn't Eris the strongest hive God now?

arctic talon
#

no

#

she gave up all that tribute

wintry scarab
arctic talon
#

instead of ascending to the throne

#

From uhhh Curse of Osiris?

radiant lance
#

Oh gotcha. I didn't play last year because of how bad light fall was

arctic talon
#

its in the eververse store I think

#

Lightfall went straight ass

#

but yeah Savathun was intending Eris to ascend

#

and steal Xivu's throneworld lol

wintry scarab
radiant lance
#

Yeah didn't work out clearly

arctic talon
#

Eris didn't fully go through with it because she's a coward she's smart

radiant lance
#

I did the contest more raid, and legitimately never played again that year

arctic talon
#

also probably because her turning into a hive god was severely uh

#

damaging her mental sanity/stability lol

radiant lance
#

I still have only one clear of Root of Nightmares

#

I think in terms of ground combat, guardians are fine

arctic talon
#

RoN boring ass raid

#

tbh

#

guardians are honestly one of the least terrifying thing in Destiny

radiant lance
#

They're really hard to attrition just because they respawn and pull matter out of thin air

arctic talon
#

yeah

radiant lance
#

Definitely way worse shit than guardians. The black fleet would honestly fuck up a ton of 40k factions
