Some of her art was genuinely good.

But some of it was literally just fetish.

Also they switched to the Fallout fandom

storm jungle
#

even when I blcok them on socials its everywhere waaa 😩

opaque coyote
#

I uh

arctic talon
#

Horrifyingly common? As a thing in East Asia

#

Like

storm jungle
#

tbh shes into literally being mutilated by space marines

opaque coyote
#

Don't know the thought process for that

queen laurel
#

well you just reminded me of something

arctic talon
#

That sort of violence

queen laurel
#

i'm gonna go ahead and kill someone to relieve distress

arctic talon
#

In like

#

That manner lol

#

Idk why

storm jungle
#

yeah gore kink stuff

#

which is like fine whatever

opaque coyote
dusk patrol
#

Very…odd stuff

#

You do you but

storm jungle
#

Yeah.... staregryn

dusk patrol
#

Man if you wanna put it out there

#

Expect some odd looks lol

storm jungle
#

"worst" part is her art is legit spectacular lol

arctic talon
#

Tag it as nsfw at least lol

storm jungle
#

until it goes like- well 💀

dusk patrol
#

Yeah

opaque coyote
#

I don't think they should've been harassed 24/7 tho

storm jungle
#

Well yeah obviously

opaque coyote
arctic talon
dusk patrol
#

Im glad it’s mostly died down but I was soooo sick of it infesting all communities for a bit

#

All this smut art

arctic talon
opaque coyote
#

My favorite

dusk patrol
#

I got called homophobic cause I didn’t like the Vez art being the same “joke” over and over

plush mason
opaque coyote
#

Anyways I hope they're alright

arctic talon
#

Admech unofficial -> gaymech official -> servitor uprising central -> admech unofficial

dusk patrol
#

And keep the gates

arctic talon
#

I miss servitor uprising central, funniest bit

queen laurel
dusk patrol
#

Idk Mariana

opaque coyote
dusk patrol
#

Sounds kinda hot

opaque coyote
#

Lole

#

They post about the T-sons in 40k lore

dusk patrol
#

They do but

opaque coyote
#

Literal essays of analysis

arctic talon
#

Makeup != femboy

dusk patrol
#

Their posts were all like “haha Ahriman as a femboy”

arctic talon
#

Yeah

storm jungle
#

Vez is a very good expert at Tsons lore

arctic talon
#

Their actual lore analysis is fine

#

Their art is

#

Meh

dusk patrol
#

Yeah idc about that

storm jungle
#

its more that like Eternal said they are obnoxious as fuck about it

dusk patrol
#

That was fine

storm jungle
opaque coyote
storm jungle
#

for that cartoony ass style?

#

fuck outta here lmao

opaque coyote
storm jungle
#

Id not pay 150 bucks to get the shit she draws daily 💀

dusk patrol
storm jungle
#

everywhere

opaque coyote
#

Repeated

arctic talon
#

There’s a breaking point

#

For saturation lol

dusk patrol
#

You’re trying to talk about Tsons and everyone is “ahahah femboys”

arctic talon
plush mason
#

idk why but my mind just produced a nightmare imagine of drag queen Ahriman

dusk patrol
#

Also, it’s ok if fans of them don’t want them to be portrayed that way

opaque coyote
#

A good chunk of artists in general just repeat one thing.

...and it genuinely makes me think.

"Is Neurodivergence a requirement to be an artist."

storm jungle
#

Like Vezimira singlehandedly ruined Thousand Sons for a few periods imo, idc if this is a hot take.

You couldnt look up anything related to them without being flooded with her shit.

dusk patrol
#

Yeah

storm jungle
dusk patrol
#

It was like TTS

storm jungle
#

Yeah it was rampant

arctic talon
storm jungle
#

im glad its mostly died down now but god

dusk patrol
#

Captain-Gen-

KITTEN

opaque coyote
#

...I still like TTS tho

storm jungle
#

Yeah but thats the thing

arctic talon
#

You can like it

dusk patrol
#

TAU GF

arctic talon
#

But some people are insufferable

#

Liked absurdly so

opaque coyote
dusk patrol
#

But guess what

#

I don’t say “HERESY” to people all the time

arctic talon
dusk patrol
#

Cause it’s annoying as fuck

storm jungle
#

Alfabusa and Co never make these to be annoying (mostly) and have reflected on the fact that it had some legit negative effects.

Its largely the fandom hanging on the lowest hanging forms of jokes the videos make and repeating them ad nauseum.

#

im very glad he moved onto Hunter

#

its so much better

dusk patrol
#

Yeah it’s just super boring

opaque coyote
storm jungle
#

die

arctic talon
#

Hunter is much better lol

dusk patrol
#

The fandom latches onto the most annoying stuff

opaque coyote
queen laurel
#

i'm an ork fan but i only scream WWWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGHHHHH! On the top of my lungs if it's appropriate for the occasion

dusk patrol
#

Fuck me now all the Angron apologia posts and

storm jungle
#

Hunter literally has its own animation studio, so you kinda realise where all 24k+ dollars of that patreon money goes to lmao

opaque coyote
dusk patrol
#

Fucking “Tau Tuesday/Wednesday/Thursday”

#

Ugggghhhh

queen laurel

#

You wouldn't go to an orphanage and scream it

queen laurel

#

How much unsolved childhood trauma do you think the average assassin in the assassinorum has

storm jungle
#

None.

opaque coyote
storm jungle
#

Most assassins we see are sadistic assholes

#

lmao

arctic talon
#

True my bad

#

Those were the good old days

queen laurel
dusk patrol
storm jungle
#

Yeah thats one thing I love

queen laurel
#

but you don't need to feel that sorry for him

dusk patrol
storm jungle
#

like they are clearly mentally conditioned to some degree, but some legit take active joy in the job they do lol

opaque coyote
# storm jungle None.

They either have none like you said.

Or are basically Homelander with the amount of unresolved shit they have.

No inbetween

dusk patrol
#

I feel bad, right up until he made to everyone else’s problem

#

And they treat him like a child

arctic talon
dusk patrol
#

He was aware of what he was doing

#

He wasn’t an idiot

arctic talon
#

Sycorax has way too much fun feeding that dude to the snake lol

queen laurel
dusk patrol
#

He wrote fucking books and deigned things

#

He just hated the galaxy

queen laurel
#

i will admit but it also doesn't diminish the fact that

#

he had a very bad life

dusk patrol
#

He could have always jsut gone off and killed himself like a gentleman

#

But he didn’t

#

And now he’s paying the price

plush mason
#

oh god Bricky has remade his "every warhammer 40k faction explained" video

dusk patrol
#

He straight up deserves his fate

opaque coyote
queen laurel
plush mason
#

and is literally starting with the war in heaven this time

dusk patrol
#

I empathize but don’t sympathize I think is the way to put it

#

I get why but it doesn’t excuse anything

#

And he’s not a child

#

He made his choices

opaque coyote
#

He definitely has uncontrollable circumstances.

But it was how he dealt with it that makes him prime Khorne material (tm)

queen laurel
arctic talon
storm jungle
queen laurel
#

but it doesn't excuse the crimes of humanity

#

He has committed

dusk patrol

AAYGGGHBDHDHEEHS

storm jungle
#

MALCADOR

#

I NEED YOU MALCADOOOOR

#

🗣️

plush mason
#

its just, he really means EVERY faction this time

storm jungle
#

but yeah Angron's issue is like his story is tragic sure but his fucking fandom is just crybabies about it

opaque coyote
dusk patrol
#

Anyways Ferrus’s arms made him have constant chronic pain too and you don’t see him being a bitch about it

arctic talon
#

First video is crons, daemons, eldar(all flavors) imperium and LoV lol

#

This is gona be 3 videos

opaque coyote

summer mural
queen laurel
#

do not ask us that

summer mural
#

not only friends with benefits

opaque coyote
#

It is a very important lore question

dusk patrol
#

It’s not

summer mural
#

they probably had feelings

arctic talon
opaque coyote
#

Anyways I go to sleep now gn

dusk patrol
#

Also Malcador probably tried sex once and found it beneath him

#

bro how do people have fandoms around single primarchs

dusk patrol
#

Now for primarchs, Russ and Fulgrim definitely got laid.

Ferrus probably tried it once but found it to be a waste of time he could be spending clobbering dark age monsters or eating rocks.

Sanguinius probably did it once but felt bad.

“I hate my wife”
generic sitcom laughtrack

plush mason
#

SMs are fraternal warrior monks, the homoerotic undertones are unavoidable in such a group

dusk patrol
#

The more straight guys are the gayer it is anyways

plush mason
#

yup

dusk patrol
#

I’ve been to gay bars that are less gay than my high school locker room

plush mason
#

the surest sign one is secure in their sexuality is the ease in which they act opposite of it

dusk patrol
#

Don’t have a bunch of dudes comparing meat spins in the shower at gay bars

late osprey
#

in the grim darkness of a 41st millennium, you're still called gay unless you go out and hook up with women constantly

#

some things never change innit

dusk patrol
#

We had a gay guy on the team too and we’d always ask him to rate who was hottest

arctic talon
#

Lol

plush mason
#

wtf is Broken Lance?

#

its clearly about imperial knights

raven stone
#

Just some web episode thing

plush mason
#

on WH+?

raven stone
#

Yes, pretty much.
Other piratical sources may have it, but no direct mentions ofc.

storm jungle
#

Its also just not good

but has a funny moment of using a plague ogryn model from darktide

#

Who hasnt taken the sword of khaine at this point

summer mural
#

storm jungle
#

good

#

summer mural
#

I wont,because I main ogres

queen laurel
storm jungle
#

read that as "orgies" for a sec

queen laurel
#

The iron dragon

summer mural
queen laurel
#

Anyone all the way from the mountains of mourn really

#

I also gave Valkia the sword of khaine

#

On my campaign with her right now

#

I have enslaved the malakith

summer mural
#

valkia does well in my campaigns

#

she takes like 22 settlements

#

because the road east of ghrond is packed with settlements that are 1 turn from each other

#

so once she takes naggarond she goes absolutely bonkers

queen laurel
#

That's what i did

#

I just absolutely obliterated every faction

summer mural
#

yeah its huge resources

#

also valkia is cool af

queen laurel
#

On the cold waste

summer mural
#

shes so good on the battlefield

#

unlike fuckin tretch

late osprey
#

fake save

summer mural
#

empire is not dust nowadays

#

they perform well which is nice

#

although I did have 1 campaign where azhag took over the entire empire

plush mason
#

be ready for the order tide

summer mural
#

nah Im gonna kill him

#

I played golgfag, and you can just shape the fate of the entire world by taking contracts

#

one turn I was beating up azazel for kostaltyn, and he became super strong, then literally next turn I took a contract for vilitch , got to cathay and took the entire bastion for him and peaced out with the cathayans

#

those guys are still trying to get their bastion back lmao

#

they also keep sending me a contract to take it for them, but I aint doing that

queen laurel
#

at one point

summer mural
#

nice

#

my current contract is actually kinda hard though, even in lategame

#

basically, dwarves want me to go to war with sartosa, ikit and dune kingdoms all at once

queen laurel
#

?

summer mural
#

so I did, took sartosa, sacked skaveblight, then I went south from sartosa, to nehekhara, sailed there and it turns out

#

yes golgfag

#

that dune kingdoms hold 60% of nehekhara

#

so the minute I landed they jumped me with stacks of rubbish skellies

#

this is lategame, so I had an epic lategame army, and we fought like 4 stacks of skeletons at once

#

the leadbelchers ran out of ammo for once

#

golgfag basically fought nonstop

queen laurel
#

they cut through infantry

summer mural
#

I have mainly golgfags maneaters, maneaters pistols, leadbelchers, hunter, butcher, bragg the gutsman, 2 crusher cav, 1 thundertusk and 1 ironblaster

#

its a great army, it was just numbers

#

they didnt struggle to perform

#

but like 4 stacks of skellies vs 1 army is big numbers

#

also I love the ogre armies because you start off with expendable gnoblars and melee ogre bulls who you gotta charge around because they die quickly, all melee units and you get armor slowly

#

then by the endgame your army is super hybrid and also extremely good in melee

queen laurel
summer mural
#

ironblasters and thundertusks are artillery and even they are good in melee

queen laurel
#

but i will always be a green skin fan

#

i just love stacking multiple stacks of black orcs and steamrolling the enemy

summer mural
#

i havent tried gorbad

#

but I have played grimgor

queen laurel
summer mural
#

grimgor is truly...

#

hes

#

well

queen laurel
#

your plans mechanic are absolutely

summer mural
#

hes a force of nature

queen laurel
#

boring

summer mural
#

yeah ive heard

#

also a lot of his units are kinda reskins or variants

#

but grimgor campaign is amazing

#

you can just barrel through the map

queen laurel
#

he adds like a good amount of things

#

his units are great

#

It's just that

#

As a Lord he doesn't add much

#

and his campaign is the same as well

summer mural
#

does he? arachnarok variant? black orc with shields?

#

those are good

#

but very variant themed

#

although I guess mangler squigs are pretty nice

queen laurel
#

a good chunk of armies

#

add black orc shields are useful and the catapult spiders are also great if you want a artillery unit that can fight back

summer mural
#

they are good

#

im just saying they arent v different

#

black orcs with shields are arguably better than the old black orcs

queen laurel
summer mural
#

greenskins do have a lot of variations

#

true

queen laurel
#

from other armies

#

aswell

#

how many of khorne's infantry does something different besides

#

hold the line and kill the enemy until nothing is left

summer mural
#

I dunno, I just look the other dlc comparison, like wrathmongers and skullreapers are distinct enough from chosen and chaos warriors aesthetically

#

also, thunderbarge is not a reskin of anything

#

neither is landship

queen laurel
summer mural
#

that is true

#

theres loads of reskinning, greenskins just suffer from it more, which I dont blame them for

#

since their roster really is maxxed out I think

#

unless you wanna throw in like

#

more forest goblins

queen laurel
summer mural
#

yeah you dont

queen laurel
#

Grom and Skarsnik already made it pretty great

summer mural
#

a big complaint a lot of people had is that the greenskins didnt need that dlc

#

grom is goated

summer mural
queen laurel
#

like

#

I didn't like getting black orcs very late into the game but like there's a reason why they are stuck on higher tiers

summer mural
#

groms cauldron mechanic is so good it keeps getting modified and thrown back into the game for other factions

queen laurel
#

Black orc Shields are great though because it actually gives orcs a frontline

summer mural
#

they are

#

their ability is also actually good

queen laurel
#

mind you cannot output damage

summer mural
#

which gives them more md for ma

queen laurel
#

but they will not move unless you kill them

summer mural
#

yeah but its good for their role

#

you can use them as anvil very well, also its optional

#

so you can just not use it and have them trade normally

#

the great weapon variant ability is not good

#

because it does the same thing but reverse

#

they do more dmg and take more dmg

#

and they already do good dmg, you dont need them to take more lol

queen laurel
summer mural
#

yeah

queen laurel
#

Yeah like they literally didn't even change a little bit just getting a mid ability

#

like you can stack the great axe black orcs as grim gore and you would literally play the same as before the update

summer mural
#

grimgor campaign is nice though

#

I love his starting position

#

its literally just his starting position, his own ability to kill everything if he can reach it, and black orcs

queen laurel
summer mural
#

TAMURKHAN IS THE WORST

#

HE COMES BACK EVERY FUCKING TURN AND HES BONKERS STRONG

queen laurel
#

guess what type of unit grimgore is

#

He's infantry

summer mural
#

yeah at least grimgor can kill tammys hero squad super fast

queen laurel
#

good luck

summer mural
#

but tamurkhan is a real pain, you cant even take advantage of his big size as greenskins because its not like you have handguns

#

or ap missiles

#

hel slaughter big uns with ease

queen laurel
summer mural
#

also even if you do manage to kill him, that swine literally returns next turn

queen laurel
#

this funny little thing ensures that you will never win

summer mural
#

hel take over the stack behind his and just come back on his toad dragon

#

ive never prayed for kholek to survive a campaign until tammy showed up

queen laurel
#

I always circle back

#

as Grimgor

#

to plug up the holde

raven stone
#

Genre meme inbound, found on FB

FB_IMG_1743679375551.jpg
summer mural
#

the real joy of grimgor is once you become strong enough in the mountains, you can just barrel down into the dawi zharr lands and create so much havoc

queen laurel
#

Because if kholek or Tamurkhan

#

decides to invade my lands and i over commit

#

on my push on greasus

#

I would have nothing to defend them

#

So that's why after like conquering a certain amount of settlements I would deal with them before they get too strong

Well I was talking about the turret

#

Smh

remote widget
dusk patrol
#

I can’t recall but I think they’re basically a servitor

#

But it’s basically just a gun

#

Same with the other tarantula mounted turrets

remote widget
#

Like that SM who pilots all the guns on the rock, he's just a brain but he's still deemed a person

dusk patrol
#

They’re effective but

remote widget
#

But is he the defense system or is he merely piloting it

#

I think I'm overdoing this

dusk patrol
#

Defense system I’d say

#

A smart one but it’s a Servitor basically

raven stone
#

So…almost unrelated note.
Anyone seen/played/spoiled themselves for Look Outside?

#

That shit is…well, fucked.
Makes 40k feel sanitized.

dusk patrol
#

Too spooky for me but tbh there’s a lot of horror that is worse than 40k

#

40k generally doesn’t get tooo uncomfortable

#

It’s also a setting which is inherently not “real” so there’s more detachment

#

Still some good horror but you know

raven stone
#

The weird thing is this - despite the labels 40k slaps on itself (well, to be more precise, despite the labels Chaos slaps on itself) the horror is still oddly relatable in a way for some reason.

#

I mean, even the supposed Chaos mutations have an odd sort of human logic to them.

dusk patrol
#

Yeah a lot of authors don’t really

#

Think outside the box that much

#

It’s fun when some do

raven stone
#

I mean, I guess it is both GW’s brand control (if you selling minis you can’t sell something too unrelatable) and writing ability.

#

Like Look Outside has some ||cosmic sized entity that can mutate shit just by observing shit and usually the change is detrimental.||

#

And yes note the exact word ||cosmic sized||

#

Whereas Chaos in 40k is still very…well, yes, shit from Tzeentch and Nurgle are horrible to look at but they are still very biblical-relatable images (and sized, to a certain extent.)

dusk patrol
#

Tbh I don’t really care about like

Actual scale or whatever just execution

And it being a video game helps a lot

I might check it out though

Idk, I’m a huge pansy with horror

#

There are only 2 happier endings for humanity, all the others absolutely…suck for humanity as a whole.

Admittedly par the course for cosmic horror 😅

#

What's an in-lore reason Tau would fight Tau?

glossy sonnet
queen laurel
#

They're like second only to eldar wear a mirror versus mirror match just does not work

raven stone
dusk patrol
#

Training simulation if you wanna be really boring

raven stone
#

That too

queen laurel
#

Yeah but like besides that they have like literally almost a zero reason of fighting each other

raven stone
#

40k is written in such a way that Faction self butchering is always a possibility

#

You just need to know the lore well enough to justify it lol

storm jungle
#

Yeah but its easier when the faction itself is like really psychopathic

queen laurel
storm jungle
#

Or that I guess

queen laurel
storm jungle
#

Some factions definitely have it way easier though

queen laurel
#

Eldar and tau

#

Not so much

storm jungle
#

even if like 3 or 2 out of four of them feel a bit "wait what"

raven stone
storm jungle
#

Yeah but thats like a really old white dwarf.

#

Most eldar lore displays kinslaying between craftworlds as an extremely bad thing.

#

its easier when say its like dark eldar who are total psychopaths and do attack craftworlds sometimes

queen laurel
#

Yeah it's literally a crime that will get you lynched in their society

storm jungle
#

I wouldnt say lynched but yeah it feels contrived

#

especially since they are suppose to be sensible between kinsmen

raven stone
#

On the one hand, fair enough on the lore updated.

On the other hand, offscreen Enslavers are always a thing :p

dusk patrol
#

Drukhari enter

storm jungle
dusk patrol
#

Enslaver? I hardly knew her!

storm jungle
#

galanga

raven stone
#

Talking of which, Enslavers can also explain T'au VS T'au

storm jungle
#

But yeah even Imperial-on-Imperial violence can sometimes get a bit goofy

#

like uhhh Dawn of War 1's entire expansion packs lol

#

an entire sororitas order kills legions of Imperial forces in a system

raven stone
#

"They didn't trust each other"

#

Is definitely one of IoM's dumber moments

queen laurel
storm jungle
#

Yeah but again it depends

queen laurel
#

Not controlling a few planets

storm jungle
#

its mostly why people tend to just ignore it when playing on tabletop

queen laurel
#

Yeah like orks are the only really ones where mirror matches don't need reasons

raven stone
#

But yes, failing all else, Enslavers are best excuse for anything

#

And everything regarding faction fights

dusk patrol
storm jungle
#

it was all a simulation

storm jungle
#

i should replay it

dusk patrol
#

I wanna know if Valve ever even had an idea for what G-man was and what the whole ending would ever be

#

Or if it was just some JJ Abram’s shit

#

Im HALF sure they literally said that hes mysterious for the sake of being mysterious.

#

“Oh no it turns out, G-Man was with the REAL bad guys!”

#

We know he’s meant to be creepy

#

Lol

dusk patrol
#

He’s just collecting his interdimensional agency check

#

That would be the best answer

storm jungle

He literally is

#

its the best part lol

dusk patrol
#

He’s just some 9-5 for an inter dimensional group

storm jungle
#

that much we do know

#

aside from that yeah nothing

dusk patrol
#

The Vortigaunts also repel him

storm jungle
#

^

dusk patrol
#

Which, raises more questions

#

As all things Half Life

storm jungle
#

in 40k terms hes something akin to like some super strong warp entity if we had to be basic lol

queen laurel
dusk patrol
#

He’s the Chaos God of Feds

queen laurel

he basically dismantles an entire skeleton crew planetary empire mostly by himself

queen laurel
storm jungle
#

lol pretty much

#

mfer literally plucks him from trouble

#

unless he feels like a dick

dusk patrol
#

He has a gravity gun, the world is his oyster

storm jungle
#

Also that too

#

we'll just uh

#

ignore him nuking black mesa, that was a whoopsie

#

(it wasnt)

dusk patrol
#

He’s the hero of the story that’s also kinda all his fault

storm jungle
dusk patrol
#

Whoops

storm jungle
#

I do love that in Opposing force

#

you spend an entire level to disarm the warhead

#

then see gman re-arming it

#

lol

dusk patrol
#

STOP MESSING WITH TIME FUCKIN MIT SCIENTISTS

queen laurel
dusk patrol
#

STOP MESSING WITH TIME AND SPACE AAAAAA

storm jungle
#

GET YOUR DORKASS TO THE TEST CHAMBER

queen laurel
#

We talked about this but the invasion force in half life is like

#

Just what's left right

storm jungle
#

Yeah basically

#

like uhhh

queen laurel
#

Like if they totally wanted to they could crush earth into a

dusk patrol
#

They’re skeleton crew

storm jungle
#

its more or less run by servitors yeah

dusk patrol
#

Also they’re not the guys from the uh

#

First game

storm jungle
#

^

queen laurel
#

Flattened pie

storm jungle
#

People always meme this not realising humanity only "won" through essentially dumb luck.

dusk patrol
#

Different group who showed up after we beat up the Mutated Boss Baby

storm jungle
#

Earth in the grand scheme of things does not matter

queen laurel
storm jungle
#

they basically tithed all they could from it by the time we start Half Life 2

queen laurel
#

Do we stop them?

storm jungle
#

Well they DO try

queen laurel
#

Nah it doesn't really matter on our economic capital

storm jungle
#

but by the time we close the portal in EP2 its like "eh whatever"

queen laurel
#

Not like trying like me when i try to do something

dusk patrol
#

So the issue is

#

We got no fucking clue

#

Cause you know

storm jungle
#

^

dusk patrol
#

They haven’t done shit for years

median star
#

maybe gman is like a cenobite and the organization he claims to be from feeds of suffering and just follow the combine around to new universes

storm jungle
#

Lmao

dusk patrol
#

And Alyx didn’t answer a lot of questions

storm jungle
#

Alyx does have some spooky implications but yeah

#

like how on that world glove the entirety of the Americas is scratched out

#

which can mean a lot of things

#

as ever Valve lets you the viewer decide it

dusk patrol
#

Like, how good headcrabs are as dancing partners

storm jungle
#

also that

dusk patrol
storm jungle
#

weeeee

#

But yeah it gives new info as much as it doesnt, which is very intentional.

#

Valve games are built on implied/unsaid lore lol

dusk patrol
#

But hey they are allegedly making a third so

#

Prepare for a disappointing answer to it all

storm jungle
dusk patrol
#

Tbh as long as it’s fun

storm jungle
#

But like I meme but as long as its-

#

yeah that lol

dusk patrol
#

The setting itself is like, neat but whatever

#

It’s like Lost I don’t really care

storm jungle
#

Alyx is a game ill never play but I know its fun

dusk patrol
#

I just wanna listen to Hurley

storm jungle
#

half life is also just such a neat universe so that helps

#

theres something cool about stuff like listening to Overwatch soldiers having their captain say "Prepare for memory-flashwipe. Compliance is mandatory."

#

or uh crushing a alien grub for HP juice

#

because why not

dusk patrol
#

Barney is the key to all this

storm jungle
#

Hes a better character than we ever had before

dusk patrol
#

It is weird playing the game with the awareness that not only does Gordon not talk but, no one even acts like he does

#

Especially with Alyx

median star
#

he speaks with his actions

storm jungle
#

Damn that reply kinda goes hard lol

median star
#

im always hard thumbsup_ogryn

#

could an inquisitor in theory have failed space marinr neophytes become apart of their retinue

glossy sonnet
#

why would they want one

vagrant fox
#

With the right excuse, I suppose they can. It'd be a little strange to me

#

They're still competent guys usually

glossy sonnet
#

well if they're failed they'll probably just be servitorized

vagrant fox
#

From what I've read they usually end up as chapter serfs

glossy sonnet
#

thats a possibility as well

celest dome
rocky gale
#

Most failures die in training or are killed for their failure, those that survive but fail usually end up as chapter serfs

vagrant fox
#

If you trust Lexicanum, and I do remember it from Devestation of Baal

image.png
#

I can see it happening, you just need an excuse
Chapter owes inquisitor a favour, don't really want to part with any full marines or scouts

rocky gale
#

I know there's a Dark Angels story where a kid goes through a trial and then says "I can't do this" and the Chaplain is just like "It takes bravery to know your limits" then snaps his neck and throws him into the pit of failed aspirants

median star
glossy sonnet
#

of course the dark angels have a pit of failed aspirants

vagrant fox
#

The Dark Angels are very funny like that

rocky gale
glossy sonnet
#

I love how extra the dark angels are

rocky gale
#

There's also a hard line he says

#

It's like "It takes a brave man to admit his limits, but a Space Marine must have none" or something

40k lore question -
Dark Age of Technology humans can Terraform planets to copy Terra as per the very first HH novel.
But…can DAoT humans make a replica of the entire solar system? Or is that beyond them?
Crossovers can be so much easier if you just say “yea that happens to be a terraformed replica world in 40k.”

If that makes any sense

I just have a limited understanding of how your brain works

winter vessel
celest dome
#

Pls don't have her as a Strategist 💀

arctic talon
#

For the 3 most complete characters, Ultron, Frost and Blade

#

It’s healer, tank and dps

#

Respectively

celest dome
#

Thanksfully ❤️

winter vessel
#

Well, guess that’s not too bad of a lineup

summer mural
#

marvel rivals

#

another game Il never have time to try

celest dome
#

It's fun, never touching ranked for it again though whatthefuck_heresy

winter vessel
#

AGAIN AGAIN AGAIN

summer mural

I just wanna touch some centigors of slaanesh

#

New Endless Legend 2 faction drop pogryn

arctic talon
dusk patrol
#

At least why she’s got such massive thighs

arctic talon
#

I’m not sure how they’re gona do it

#

Maybe she’ll just be big

#

Or she’ll have something going on like strange

dusk patrol
#

She’s got her diamond skin, maybe like a

#

Disrupter power with her mind stuff

arctic talon
#

More so like

#

How they’re gona make her profile

#

Is she just gona be really wide and tall lol

winter vessel
#

thinking like a high angle shot

arctic talon
#

Because strange gets away with it by having the big fucking cape

dusk patrol
#

Yeah being VERY generous that’s why she has the uh

#

Extra stuffing

arctic talon
#

Lol

winter vessel
#

where the ice is

arctic talon
#

Still less sexual then her comic outfits

#

Anyways I’m surprised they didn’t add blade

winter vessel
celest dome
#

Too many Duelist as is

summer mural
#

arent they doing a AAA blade game

#

so he might launch around then idk

arctic talon
#

And why MOBAs are better/hj

celest dome
#

Well, the F4 should have had 3 Tank and 1 Duelist 🙃

arctic talon
#

Not sure why human torch would be a tank

celest dome
arctic talon
#

Invisible woman and Mr fantastic I can see being tanks yeah

#

But I’d assume they wanted the team up

#

To be a comp you can run easily

#

Since if they made both Mr fantastic and the thing tanks

#

They’d have to have synergy or cover each others weaknesses to actually be good together

celest dome
#

Become Vanguard: Mr. Fantastic, Wolverine, (Punisher)
become Strategist: Storm, Black Widow|Hawkeye

goddamn what a sick screenshot

"look at me father" says the little soulgrinder in the back

crystal forum
#

holy shit the 40k server has trans flag aquila it must be a warzone in there

plush mason
#

Ultron kinda makes sense

celest dome
#

Strategist don't really have to make sense in their slot

plush mason
#

Rocket im still confused as hell about

celest dome
#

See Dagger, Susan, Jeff, Loki

#

Should I go on ?

plush mason
#

true

celest dome
#

heck if anything Spider Man and Mr. Fantastic would have made much more sense as healer than most of them KEKW_ogryn

plush mason
#

true

dusk patrol
#

Sue makes sense tbh

crystal forum
#

i like the part when mister fantastic raps about rap snitches

celest dome
arctic talon
dusk patrol
#

Now granted I’ll agreed you could easily have swapped Sue and Reed

#

Cloak makes a lot of sense

arctic talon
#

They took cloaks legs

celest dome
#

Dagger is a murderhobo in the comcis though 💀

dusk patrol
#

And him and Dagger were always gonna be together

arctic talon
#

Can’t have shit in rivals

dusk patrol
#

Dagger is the girl

celest dome
#

Yes

#

Cloak is the one that is holding her back from being a serial killer whatthefuck_heresy

plush mason
celest dome
#

True

dusk patrol
#

Being a murder hobo doesn’t mean they don’t fit the role

celest dome
#

Rocket should have been a duelist

dusk patrol
#

Literally all of them could be duelist tbh

celest dome
#

Pratt should have been the Strategist

plush mason
#

his ult could have been the hadron enforcer

dusk patrol
#

They’re just being more interesting with them than the first idea

celest dome
#

Fit more

dusk patrol
#

Like Strange as a tank

arctic talon
#

I think it’s fine if they don’t fit with the existing comic versions

plush mason
#

imagine, he flies up and targets an area with a literal moon shattering nuke

arctic talon
#

Doing unconventional stuff is fine

#

It’s not like they’re actually like

#

The direct comic versions of characters

#

Except for Sai who is just the one from demon days lol

plush mason
#

ofc

celest dome
#

Star Lord with the Elemental Guns to act as a mobile pseudo Dive healer could have made much sense

arctic talon
#

It’s not like any of the options are super strange

#

Imo

arctic talon
plush mason
#

i know

arctic talon
#

His actual kit is

#

Something

#

Lol

celest dome
#

Do hope they have more varied vanguard

#

But then I see people ask for Collossus, Juggernaut, Rhino...

arctic talon
#

Tbh

#

The tank roster rn has some weirdos

#

But most of it is normal

#

Magneto and strange are fun picks

celest dome
#

some weirdoes ? In what way

arctic talon
#

Strange and magneto

#

Both aren’t what you’d think of as a tank

#

Imo

celest dome
#

Fair

arctic talon
#

And the way they’ve made strange work as a tank visually is sick

#

With him not being super huge

#

And most of his sillouete being the cape

celest dome
#

Well, Magneto I think made quite some sense as Tank

#

Strange could have been made to work in any of the roles

dusk patrol
#

Honestly you probably could have done Wolverine as a tank

arctic talon
#

Wolverine should be a tank

#

Tbh

dusk patrol
#

Make him a dive tank

celest dome
#

ye

arctic talon
#

He’s super toxic as a dps rn

dusk patrol
#

Is Wolverine OP now

arctic talon
#

No other character in the game really does it that bad to a single role

arctic talon
#

He just makes over half the tank roster useless lol

#

Him and Spider-Man have the same issue

#

Where they knock a lot of viable picks

#

Into unviable whenever they exist

#

Wolverine exists entirely to make a solid chunk of tanks lives miserable lol

#

Only counter is Namor/Mantis for you to make your tank not want to slam their skull into the wall

languid meadow
#

My mag team up ooohhgggh

celest dome
#

Red Witch is good against Wolverines tbh

dusk patrol
#

They need more abilities which like

dapper gyro
languid meadow
#

Watching the rivals subreddit explode because Bucky got away with barely any balance changes

dusk patrol
#

Make you immune to being grabbed and stuff

dusk patrol
arctic talon
#

It’s so funny

dapper gyro
#

Durable damage dealer in between a tank and a dps.

dusk patrol
languid meadow
arctic talon
#

Yeah the thing doesn’t care about Wolverine

dusk patrol
#

Lore accurate

arctic talon
#

Also being able to reposition

#

Is important against Wolverine

#

Because he really fucks up positioning

languid meadow
#

I love bullying magiks

arctic talon
#

Lol

dusk patrol
#

Does strangers shield not block Wolverine?

languid meadow
#

No

dusk patrol
#

Gay

languid meadow
#

Shields do not block melee attacks

dusk patrol
#

Well there’s the problem but

#

Whatever they’ll figure it out

#

Maybe

languid meadow
#

I hope they change it

#

Since it makes sense in overwatch

#

But not marvel rivals

dusk patrol
#

Yeah

languid meadow
#

Can't wait for Ultron

celest dome
#

Melee character should be blown back/away by shields

languid meadow
#

Another lord Strat to the roster baby

#

I think the team up changes this season are ass

arctic talon
#

I agree

#

A lot of them are

#

Bleh

languid meadow
#

Mag and witch losing a team up is so bad

#

I'm fine with Bucky losing his rocket team up

arctic talon
#

The rocket team up was gross

#

On Bucky lol

languid meadow
#

But damn namor really fucked strange lmao

rose thorn
rose thorn
rocky gale
#

Yea I was so confused

#

Was my first thought as well

languid meadow
#

With the death of the Bucky rocket team up an even cooler one was born

celest dome
#

For future Vanguard I want Ant-Man and the Wasp as a switch up character (like Cloack and Dagger)

dapper gyro
#

huge hit box is tight

languid meadow
#

I wonder how they'll release blade now

#

Since it's gonna be two heroes a season and we already had the vampire season

rose thorn
arctic talon
#

Wonder what the 4th hero

#

That they’re working on is

#

Since Ultron, blade and Emma frost are all in varying levels of completion

rose thorn
#

was doom added yet?

languid meadow
#

No

rose thorn
#

fuck

languid meadow
#

But he was teased in the new trailer or kind of

arctic talon
#

Doom is

#

Prolly a while off

languid meadow
#

He was in the background of the Galla with Loki

arctic talon
#

Imo it’s gona be a third doom

#

That’s unrelated to the 2 they’ve revealed lol

languid meadow
#

Yeah

#

Either way we get a doom

rocky gale
#

Also in relation to the Emma Frost reveal

celest dome
#

Doom tank with Doombot as summons

rocky gale

#

Another blonde white girl wearing white

arctic talon

Lol

#

I really wish the fantastic 4 had their blue suits as default

arctic talon
#

Yeah

#

It’s so weird they picked white

#

Imo

#

Ah, one of the most popular character started from outside of Marvel.

rocky gale
#

Was Gaiman and McFarlane originally right?

#

Then they sold her to Marvel

celest dome
#

For Asgardians, the 3 I hope appear are Jane Foster (as Valkyrie), the Enchantress, and Heimdal

rocky gale
#

Not Angela?

celest dome
#

As tank, duelist and healer respectively

rocky gale
celest dome
#

haven't read her comics 🤷

rocky gale
#

She's a daughter of Odin but was thought to be killed as a child and was raised by angels. She's also immortal and became Queen of Hel just so she could bring her girlfriend back to life.

#

She's based

celest dome
#

How would you see her play out ?

#

Kit wise

rose thorn
celest dome
#

Heimdal: Tanky Melee Healer that heal any ally in his sword swing, can open Bifrost gate that let allies revive sooner and spawn directly in the fight
Enchantress: There is so much they could do with her power
Valkyrie: Being able to use her weapon that change form all the time

rocky gale
#

Unsure totally but either as Tank or DPS, somewhat of a hybrid between Captain America and Magik and whichever side she ends up as it'll be like offtank towards dps or offdps towards tank.

#

Probably see her basically playing as a front lining Magic, with some survivability. More durable but less damage and decent mobility

rose thorn
#

also WHEN IS DRACULA GETTING ADDED!!!!!1

#

or waht does marvel call dracula?

rocky gale
#

Dracula

summer mural

rose thorn
#

oh lmao

#

holy shit its literally dracula

hq720.png

#

also my favourite part about midnight suns is that its the most faithful wolverine gameplay adaptation ever

rose thorn
#

deosnt he jsut fight like an insane person

summer mural
#

yes but

rose thorn
#

hunter l4d style

summer mural
#

he fights competently
