bloat is gas

[storm jungle]

fat is bloating

bloating is fat

[opaque coyote]

Increased infection

[storm jungle]

next question

[opaque coyote]

Decreased health

Etc.

So it's both fat and bloated

[arctic talon]

@storm jungle did you give Heinrix a ptsd attack while romancing him

Genuine question

[opaque coyote]

Nurgle Maxxing

[crystal forum]

do eldar have sharp teeth

[opaque coyote]

No

[crystal forum]

i thought they had big canines

[arctic talon]

Like human teeth

[opaque coyote]

Nah. Regular

[storm jungle]

Why would you think that

💀

[opaque coyote]

Deldar

Ig

[storm jungle]

no

[arctic talon]

Deldar don’t have that either

[opaque coyote]

Yeah

[crystal forum]

i think i saw art

or maybe it was fart

[opaque coyote]

Probably just a thing the artist added to make them look cool

[crystal forum]

anyways im done for the night

[opaque coyote]

Or they're a furry

Probably both

[queen laurel]

if only you can be done forever with these types of questions but alas sometimes good things are never meant to be

[opaque coyote]

Furry artists generally add sharper teeth to even their non-furry art.

[crystal forum]

you can spot a furry artist by how they draw human feet

[bold veldt]

tis in the blood

[crystal forum]

the leg structure is all wrong

[opaque coyote]

As a side note, does anybody hate when eyes somehow go through hair in art?

[crystal forum]

that's anime

[opaque coyote]

Yeah

[crystal forum]

you hate anime

[opaque coyote]

....yes Jay

I hate anime

Ignore my pfp

[crystal forum]

so cool

i respect you now

[bold veldt]

No

[opaque coyote]

Anyways, yeah idk why but I just don't like that particular quirk ig

I mean I think it's fine if it's like

A bit of the eye?

[arctic talon]

https://tenor.com/view/hypocrisy-meter-full-hypocrite-gif-9164321

[opaque coyote]

Idk what's the threshold though

[queen laurel]

i'm gonna crack your skull

[arctic talon]

Lol

[opaque coyote]

Forgot to wear my gold armor

And flaming sword

Fuck

[arctic talon]

The meter would be the same

[opaque coyote]

Nah gotta break it somehow

[crystal forum]

do you think nurgle or slaanesh smells worse

[arctic talon]

Slaanesh smells nice

[queen laurel]

nurgle

[arctic talon]

According to the silver knight story

[opaque coyote]

https://tenor.com/view/lobotomy-cat-gif-27501507

[arctic talon]

And other stuff

[queen laurel]

Slannesh smells nice because she needs to

[bold veldt]

nurgle

[arctic talon]

Slaanesh smells bad in the perfume bomb sense

Lol

[opaque coyote]

Tbh I imagine Slaanesh to smell like

Fake ass perfume

Like

[crystal forum]

i've seen slaanesh demons smelling like straight up musk so i guess it depends on what you're into

[opaque coyote]

An extreme amount of axe body spray

Type of smell

[bold veldt]

depends on what you count as "bad"

[arctic talon]

Slaanesh takes whatever form the person who sees them find most appealing

[opaque coyote]

Probably that.

Idk I can imagine Slaaneshi stuff going into weird extreme territory

[arctic talon]

Like explicitly

That would extend to smell imo

Slaanesh smells however you want them to

[crystal forum]

so do nurgle demons love the smell of farts

[arctic talon]

Or rather what you find most appealing

[opaque coyote]

Like I think in the books, a Daemon made a portrait of Fulgrim using piss, shit, and as quoted "other bodily fluids"

[arctic talon]

Yes they love decay

And rot

Lol

[crystal forum]

awesome

[vagrant fox]

slaanesh smells like gasoline

[arctic talon]

Lol

[opaque coyote]

The new car smell

[arctic talon]

In any case slaanesh basically looks like your ideal person lol

[crystal forum]

americans gas chambering themselves in their new cars

i heard in china they hate the smell

so dealers get rid of it

[arctic talon]

I hate the smell of new cars

Lol

I don’t get how people stand it

[crystal forum]

it's literally the smell of industrial solvents and glue vapors

it's like sniffing glue

[arctic talon]

Anyways Slaanesh is a funny chaos god

Their form along with tzeentch

Changes the most lol

[bold veldt]

...yes...

[arctic talon]

Nurgle pretty much always is

[crystal forum]

im weirdly addicted to chlorine smell

[opaque coyote]

Tzeentch probably just uses a randomizer wheel 80% of the time

[arctic talon]

A huge GUO

[crystal forum]

idk why i love the smell of chlorinated pools

[arctic talon]

And khorne is usually a terrifying dude on a throne

[arctic talon]

He yearns for the trenches

[bold veldt]

would it be extreme to suggest its the microplastics talking..?

[opaque coyote]

I always wonder why Khorne is always on a throne though

[crystal forum]

chlorine is not a plastic

[opaque coyote]

And not like

On the ground

Like sitting on the pile of skulls

[bold veldt]

the throne is on the ground

[opaque coyote]

Then again, I think Khorne represents more the Conquerer than

The warrior

[crystal forum]

is there truly a ground in the warp

[opaque coyote]

He is Genghis, not the millions of soldiers actually doing the dirty work type of thing

[arctic talon]

Excuse it’s a skull throne

[arctic talon]

Technically?

[bold veldt]

mmmmmmmyes.

[arctic talon]

I mean

In the chaos gods realms yes

[opaque coyote]

Yes and no

[arctic talon]

There is ground

In the rest of the warp fuck no lol

[bold veldt]

A Thousand Sons literally just says its a giant ocean

[arctic talon]

Make your own ground if you don’t melt first

[bold veldt]

me not believe this

[crystal forum]

i dont think chaos gods really have a form

[arctic talon]

We know they do sort of

[bold veldt]

not physically

[arctic talon]

Explicitly

[crystal forum]

also abritor ian is WRONG

[arctic talon]

Even if it’s odd

[crystal forum]

they are totally fucking gods

[opaque coyote]

Probably the best description considering Warp Travel is kinda similar to like

1200s-1600s

Sea travel

[arctic talon]

We literally see khornes arm

Manifest in real space

[bold veldt]

its simply the simplest way to describe it

[arctic talon]

Before he smashes the funny beacon with his sword

[crystal forum]

hell yeah

manifest muscle

the god of swole

[opaque coyote]

I can imagine Khorne's weapon being shapeshift though

Like

It can turn into any weapon in history

Including a gigantic gun cause why not

[arctic talon]

Prolly

[opaque coyote]

Skarbrand seeing Khorne pull out the Blunderbuss

[queen laurel]

he can do that but why bother when a good old axe that can slice through a planet is good enough

[opaque coyote]

Yeah but hey

Sometimes you need a change of pace

[opaque coyote]

I have thought about Khorne looking kinda eldar?

But that would be more appropriate for Slaanesh

Considering well

The race technically made her

I mean Khorne did beat Khaine so I can imagine him absorbing enough of his essence to gain an Eldar feature

Then again, he doesn't really have a solid feature other than

Guy on throne in armor and weapon

Idk

[arctic talon]

https://youtu.be/BJUbLM8coho?si=ax_66mDWajLvDT33

[arctic talon]

It’s why Ynead looks like a slaaneshi daemon in some ways

Slaanesh and the concept of death are heavily intertwined now

For the eldar

[opaque coyote]

I can imagine Slaanesh taking on a lot of Eldar adjacent forms. Since she is technically their god of death

...

Even though they really don't want her as their god of death for a good fucking reason

As for Tzeentch.

I can imagine them just

Changing colors and forms randomly. If you don't have your mind collapse or whatever. Every time you look away, and then look back, they've changed into something new

Or just randomly keeping the same form, except they're colored a slightly different shade of blue this time

[sacred ginkgo]

I think a direct manifestation of Tzeentch would have details change even while in your periphery if you weren't directly focused on them

Having their form embody quantum uncertainty is a really neat idea

[opaque coyote]

Yeah I think if there's a Hades style game

Tzeentch's sprite should just like

change colors every dialogue box

Form if they allow it but hey

[sacred ginkgo]

I think a more interesting way to do it would be like 5 complete sprites for every pose

and then cut them all up and stitch them together randomly

[opaque coyote]

Oh yeah true

[sacred ginkgo]

Would be really high effort because they would require like 5 times the work + coherent rigging

[opaque coyote]

"You're so boring Khorne. Did anybody tell you that?"

"..."

"I mean I ain't telling you to change too much. That's my shtick. But at least change into something more comfortable at lea-"

otherworldly cackling in the background

"SHUT UP SLAANESH THIS ISN'T ABOUT YOU- anyways what was I talking about?"

"I hate you all."

[late osprey]

i love this map

i also quite like the implication that someone can come here via magic in Fantasy, walk into the Eye of Terror and just get spat out in the middle of deep space

i bet you there's been at least one imperial navy ship that encountered a frozen Empire Spearman just drifting

[storm jungle]

Thats an old thing.

Theres not really any crossover at all between warhammer universes anymore thankfully.

[late osprey]

the map itself pretty new relatively, at least

[storm jungle]

New?

thats like 4 editions old

also from Fantasy

[nocturne crest]

Is there anything old world had over 40k?

[storm jungle]

Like, in regards to what

[late osprey]

2014 is hardly some Lost and the Damned era property

though i guess old and new is all relative

[storm jungle]

10 years is very old

sorry to say

[nocturne crest]

Abilities or manufacturing?

[late osprey]

https://tenor.com/rNOA.gif

[storm jungle]

Its a middle-ages setting being compared to a sci-fi setting. Take a guess.

[nocturne crest]

Middle age setting with magic and steam tanks.

[storm jungle]

I mean yes

its still middle ages

the stuff you also mentioned isnt daily things

lol

[late osprey]

here's what its got: cooler characters

[storm jungle]

Also no space marines.

[nocturne crest]

Then AOS came along.

[storm jungle]

For the better.

[late osprey]

i was going to make that joke goddamn you

[storm jungle]

literally get better material

[late osprey]

but i resisted the urge

[opaque coyote]

I think generally

Bretonnia is middle aged

Sigmar's empire is more like the Renaissance.

[storm jungle]

Its middle-ages in general terms

the Empire still lives in villages, hamlets, cities and stone/wood structures among other stuff

[late osprey]

ultimately i dont really think whfb and aos are even that comparable, they're two dramatically different genres of fantasy

but aos is definitely more fun as a game

[arctic talon]

Yes

Lol

[opaque coyote]

Yeah true. But you could say the same for like

The 1700s but I don't think that's considered middle age

[late osprey]

thats hardly clearing any high bars, of course

[storm jungle]

Whf died because it was dogshit to play, so that checks out

[arctic talon]

I also tried playing actual whfb again a few days ago

It’s terrible

[late osprey]

whfb at the end was actually hot dogtwater

[arctic talon]

Old world genuinely is so much better lol

Still has issues

[queen laurel]

people genuinely don't get the difference between low fantasy and high fantasy

[late osprey]

aside from just random jank rules that completely ruin entire factions, its main offense was it was just very boring

[nocturne crest]

So why do people want the skaven in 40k?

[arctic talon]

But it’s not whfb gameplay wise

[arctic talon]

Because they’re cool

[storm jungle]

Skaven are cool. Thats it.

[opaque coyote]

Btt then again I am much less familiar with Fantasy in general than 40k

[arctic talon]

Except the skaven already got chopped up

And split between several factions

Mostly the imperium and orks

No I’m not joking

[queen laurel]

yeah you want skaven go imperium and orks

[opaque coyote]

Would be surprised if they did

[arctic talon]

Guard are basically just skaven slave spam

[late osprey]

GW's true masters, Wizards of the Coast, demanded they leave low fantasy behind for ever to create new marketable D&D and MtG settings

[arctic talon]

With skryre weapon teams

[late osprey]

(real lore)

[arctic talon]

LOL

Also dnd isn’t low fantasy

[opaque coyote]

Don't Skaven literally have like

[storm jungle]

DnD is like

[late osprey]

yeah exactly

[opaque coyote]

Dimmer souls

[arctic talon]

At least not the stuff WOTC pushes

[storm jungle]

the highest form of high fantasy

[late osprey]

Forgotten Realms is high fantasy

[arctic talon]

skaven literally do not have their own soul

They all share souls

[crystal forum]

where's my low fantasy

and mid fantasy

[late osprey]

Dark Sun is as low fantasy as it gets these days

[arctic talon]

Low fantasy is a mostly dead genre

T b h

[opaque coyote]

Like DnD is basically what I think of when somebody says like

"Medieval Fantasy"

[storm jungle]

Witcher is the only one that comes to my mind

[arctic talon]

People do not like it as much

Yeah

[storm jungle]

since like

[crystal forum]

what even is low

[storm jungle]

its literally medieval europe

[crystal forum]

and high

[storm jungle]

but with monsters

[crystal forum]

ah

[arctic talon]

How much magic

[opaque coyote]

People don't like dying of dysentery.

[arctic talon]

And weird shit

[storm jungle]

Literally just medieval times

[arctic talon]

Yeah

[storm jungle]

High Fantasy is a lot more fantastic tropes everywhere

[opaque coyote]

People like dying against Eldritch Horrors instead

[arctic talon]

Also the games are def high fantasy

[opaque coyote]

[late osprey]

well ok if we're talking about settings as properties

[arctic talon]

Compared to the books lol

[late osprey]

low fantasy is still very well alive

[crystal forum]

im trying to think of low fantasy

[nocturne crest]

What the hell is happening chat is shooting so fast?

[storm jungle]

Its called people talking.

[late osprey]

in fact id even say Warhammer Fantasy as an IP is at least as popular as any given DnD setting

[queen laurel]

@storm jungle Warhammer fantasy versus age of sigmar

[storm jungle]

Nah

[arctic talon]

Warhammer fantasy isn’t even that low fantasy

Is the thing

[storm jungle]

DnD is way more supreme

[late osprey]

Not DnD the game

[crystal forum]

western vs anime

[storm jungle]

Also yeah like

[late osprey]

i'm talking about the settings

[storm jungle]

WHF is middle-tier fantasy id say

[arctic talon]

Yeah

[storm jungle]

it does have the image of "normal" fantasy

but like, its very much not

[arctic talon]

WIZARD BATTLE TIME

[queen laurel]

yeah i think the most low fantasy is the humans but like

tanks

[arctic talon]

GELT VERSUS

[opaque coyote]

Would Kingdom Come count as low fantasy?

I mean probably not considering it's based on actual history

[queen laurel]

they have ******* tanks

[crystal forum]

i love how high fantasy swords always need to go extra

[arctic talon]

I forgot his name

[nocturne crest]

Lore of metal!

[queen laurel]

Elspeth?

[arctic talon]

The fire dude

[late osprey]

no thats historical fiction

[storm jungle]

Its also entirely about presentation and its artstyle, if warhammer artists say worked on World of Warcraft it'd probably look as "grounded" and brutal like WHF.

[arctic talon]

He beat

[opaque coyote]

Yeah I assumed

[storm jungle]

a setting artstyle does a lot

[arctic talon]

Yeah

Whfb’s art style fucked hard

It doesn’t look very fantastical

[late osprey]

also its hard to say to what extent Warhammer Fantasy the game actually represents the setting, but i believe in most cases we're seeing definite outlier circumstances

[arctic talon]

If it’s empire vs chaos warriors

Beyond the armor

[storm jungle]

Adrian Smith, Kopinksy, Blanche etc

[crystal forum]

realist mfers are really obnoxious and elitist. they act like everything should be historically accurate because that's just objectively superior to them

[late osprey]

like how you might think the entire Imperium was filled with space marines from playing the video games

[arctic talon]

Well the thing is such things exist and aren’t super duper rare to the point of not existing

Imo

The college of magic is a thing

Same with like Beastmen magically teleporting

[storm jungle]

"MUH DITCHES"

[late osprey]

right but you're not gonna see one across the street from Joe's General Goods

[arctic talon]

Yeah

[storm jungle]

well

unless you live in Altdorf

[arctic talon]

But the fact it’s a thing makes it high fantasy imo

[storm jungle]

but yes lol

[crystal forum]

they're also very clearly sexist a lot of the time and try to explain it with historical accuracy

[queen laurel]

they might be the last warhammer orcs I like but warhammer fantasy orcs still have a place on my heart

[arctic talon]

FATAL

[late osprey]

low and high are ever a gradient of the presence of magic essentially, in my opinion Warhammer is on the lower end; the College is this one singular body that isn't particularly pervasive

compared with like

DnD

where everyone and their grandma has an order of wizards

[storm jungle]

Warhammer is middle tier

[late osprey]

or Forgotten Realms in this case

[storm jungle]

it has too many high-fantasy elements to be low-tier

[crystal forum]

warhammer is mid
-dilara

[queen laurel]

Yeah definitely middle tier

[late osprey]

well

what IS low fantasy

[arctic talon]

Almost no magic

[nocturne crest]

That is pretty cool art.

[late osprey]

no i mean like

an example setting

[arctic talon]

Weird fantastical creatures are fine

[arctic talon]

Witcher books

Imo

[queen laurel]

Yeah literally the Witcher

not outlandish armor

[arctic talon]

Where Geralt gets fucking shanked by a pitchfork and lynched

[queen laurel]

Weird creatures

[arctic talon]

[queen laurel]

no ******* magic in that one too almost

[late osprey]

dont those get pretty out there though, with the lodges of magicians and elf queens

[arctic talon]

It’s absurdly rare

So I’d say no personally

But you could argue it’s existence means it’s not low fantasy

[queen laurel]

yeah like can Geralt even unlock magic?

In the games?

[storm jungle]

Not really

90% of the setting is just...

well europe lol

Most fantasy creatures are not that common

[queen laurel]

Damn I didn't know Europe have weird tree men that eat people

[storm jungle]

or are just outcasted or simply got a more realistic style

[opaque coyote]

And approx a good 50% of them are complaining about Black people being WW1 soldiers.

They exist dumbass. Actually do some fucking research and shit the fuck up.

[arctic talon]

He uses a thing a mage gives him

To use magic

So technically?

[crystal forum]

it's mostly just who cares

[opaque coyote]

Would Dark Souls count as High Fantasy or mid fantasy

[storm jungle]

High.

[arctic talon]

High

[storm jungle]

its too fantastical

[queen laurel]

i would say that as no because i would classify them as a magical tool

[storm jungle]

its not a hard distinction to make

[arctic talon]

I’m not sure about the games

I forgor

Lol

Also yeah dark souls is absolutely high fantasy

With how many fucking college of mages there have been

[queen laurel]

you literally call down lightning from the sky and fight someone that rides a dragon

[arctic talon]

And how the world literally runs on magic

Lol

[opaque coyote]

True.

Thought it would be middle for a second cause a good half of the armor is actually form fitting.

But then I remember Hollows casually existing and I was like

"Yeah nah High"

[queen laurel]

what do you think

[arctic talon]

Armor doesn’t matter

Aesthetics don’t even matter that much imo

You can have absurd looking armor in low fantasy

Even if it’s fucking stupid

That’s my take at least

[storm jungle]

Low: Basically just IRL medieval times with minor fantasy elements.

Mid: Good range of both ala Game of Thrones or Warhammer Fantasy.

High: Magic, wizards, and other wild fantastical stuff everywhere ala Age of Sigmar, Dungeons & Dragons, etc

[queen laurel]

my brother in christ one of the people you meet literally carries armor so heavy and tough it can resist Dragons

[opaque coyote]

Yeah it's why I said half

The other half is fantastical armor

And I was like

"Does it count as middle fantasy because of that...? Nah."

[queen laurel]

yeah but like even then have you seen the shit you fight?

[arctic talon]

Monster hunter is low fantasy because magic isn’t a thing/j

[queen laurel]

Just off of that alone that's already high fantasy

[sacred ginkgo]

Scale of how easy it is to become a wizard:

[late osprey]

LoTR is sort of the definitive low fantasy, to the point that its questionable if magic even exists at all outside of the maiar+

[arctic talon]

Honestly low/mid/high fantasy as terms

[sacred ginkgo]

Low fantasy is impossible
Middle is bloodline/ancient knowledge exclusive
High is a trade school

[arctic talon]

All kind of suck

But it’s like

Ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

What’s the alternative

Lol

[storm jungle]

LOTR is a High Fantasy setting that evolves to Low Fantasy so thats correct yeah.

[late osprey]

they're vibecheckers

[queen laurel]

do you have a better classification than i'm all yours

[arctic talon]

Fair enough

[arctic talon]

No

[late osprey]

even in the first and second ages there is no unmistakeable manifestation of magic outside the maiar+

[storm jungle]

Also how the "story" timeline ends with real life

which is so weird to me and Ive always ignored it lol

[late osprey]

which is an important distinction for the especially pedantic as those manifestations technically are miracles

[opaque coyote]

Yeah true

Although I find it funny in terms of progression. Because like

Dark Souls 1 was fairly grounded in terms of size. Like most weapons actually have ""realistic"" sizes. With exceptions like Smough's hammer requiring a fuck ton of strength.

Then Dark Souls 2 decided to make everything bigger and then it progressed from there.

Just a disclaimer, I don't hate this or anything. Just a interesting and funny observation.

[late osprey]

its necessary for the meta-plot that all of the writings are in-universe translations from archaeological discoveries

[storm jungle]

Yeah but its still a bit too dumb for me.

Just leave the setting as is.

its like saying WHF ends up turning into the real world

Actually nevermind

[opaque coyote]

"Mmm yes

Elves."

[late osprey]

eye of the beholder, but it does come from an era where "true fantasy" in the sense that its totally disconnected from reality

was virtually unheard of

see narnia and all the other "otherworld" style fantasies

[queen laurel]

America is nagaroth

what did GW mean by this

[opaque coyote]

Overall just uh

I like magic knights

[storm jungle]

Slave trade moment

[opaque coyote]

And fighting dragons

There we go

[crystal forum]

"the world pond"

[opaque coyote]

[crystal forum]

literally fuck off

[storm jungle]

You think thats bad?

when Araby is there?

[opaque coyote]

Yeah that's an accurate portrayal of California tbh

[late osprey]

cathay is also LITERALLY the archaic medieval term for china

[opaque coyote]

Destroyed to shit via earthquakes and then probably burnt to the ground because we decided to buy a lot of trees from Australia that one time

[crystal forum]

where tf is india

[storm jungle]

A lot of the nation terms are yeah

[storm jungle]

where India is IRL

its just named Ind

[opaque coyote]

...is that why the elves have almond eyes in art

[crystal forum]

original

[storm jungle]

its covered by the map chart

[opaque coyote]

[storm jungle]

hold on

[arctic talon]

Nippon

[crystal forum]

im glad that the balklands are the badlands

[crystal forum]

and eastern russia is just wastes

[opaque coyote]

HANDCRAFTED NIPPON STEEL

Blade falls off the hilt

[late osprey]

low fantasy is if they're magic knights because their armor was enchanted
high fantasy is if they're magic knights because they cast Level 5 Fireball

[crystal forum]

heheheh nippon

nipple

[storm jungle]

perish

[opaque coyote]

Why not both

[storm jungle]

[opaque coyote]

Generally I think most likely High Fantasy better

Although low fantasy definitely has a crowd

Like Milsims

I still have no idea why people find Arma 3 fun

[late osprey]

i dont know, people loved GoT so much they started acting like everything else was childish

[opaque coyote]

Like ATP just join the fucking military at that rate

[late osprey]

"Not your grandma's fantasy. 😎 "

[crystal forum]

you dont get medical issues in arma

[late osprey]

arma is so boring its insane

[opaque coyote]

Doesn't that literally have dragons??

[late osprey]

that being said

[arctic talon]

How GW felt writing WHFB Nippon lore

[late osprey]

is awesome

[arctic talon]

Fuck it didn’t post properly

Whatever

[crystal forum]

original ogres are like mongolian caricatures

[late osprey]

i didnt say it was low fantasy, just it was apparently the most low fantasy anyone had ever seen before in their lives

[opaque coyote]

I tried it for a bit and I do want to buy it to try it out for longer.

How many people actually play

[arctic talon]

Yes

[crystal forum]

also racist

[opaque coyote]

💀

[late osprey]

i play the star wars mod, which can get up to full 2 lobbies

but the modern one is like

10 full lobbies at any given time

"modern one"

vanilla.

i mean vanilla squad

[opaque coyote]

...I almost said fucking normies but realized that part of my soul would die if I said that without any irony

[arctic talon]

How do you think the sculptor who did the pygmies feels

You know

The original whfb ones

[late osprey]

we don't talk about them

[arctic talon]

Probably for the best

[late osprey]

also i like how instead of just updating Araby and making it less of a caricature

they just go "oh yeah the Bretonnians exterminated them all teehee"

[opaque coyote]

Well now you got me curious

[late osprey]

like thats not utterly horrible

[opaque coyote]

Give me a sec

...

Okay wow

Didn't expect that

Much

Uh

How did this get past censors

[late osprey]

the 80s censors??

[arctic talon]

Considering they got discontinued only a year later

They might also have sold like shit

And that’s why they got discontinued

[opaque coyote]

Yup.

Like my god that is something I would see in like

A drawing from the 1940s

[opaque coyote]

I wonder why

[arctic talon]

Good question

Lol

[tough haven]

@arctic talon your fusion pistol build for harlequins wont work since at max you can get 2 fusion pistols

[arctic talon]

2 is all you need

A fusion pistol is a melta in a trench coat

[tough haven]

I'm trying to decide if I'd want to start with melee or ranged in that build

cause I could start with ranged with the death jester

[summer mural]

is that skarbrand with a gun

[median star]

wheres the gun

[summer mural]

is that actually one of his axes in his right hand

doesnt seem like an axe

[opaque coyote]

Yup

Though tbf he is holding them

Weirdly

Like he's holding them like he's a 3 year old with a toy axe tbh

[summer mural]

hes holding it like a gun lmao

[opaque coyote]

Yeah generally holding near the blade is unadvisable

Both for health

And also for actually being effective

maybe his axe shoots those needles on the edge or something

[opaque coyote]

Either that or Skarbrand has no idea how to hold an axe

But nobody corrected him due to how good he is despite of his

Weird handling

Khorne shivers at the thought of him understanding the idea of

Doctor who reference

[rocky gale]

Imagine seeing that on tv aged 6

“The last human”

[queen laurel]

i pray for anyone who decided to check this chat

right now

[raven stone]

Oh I remember that.
Thankfully I was in mu adult years when thay became a thing.

Morning chat

[plush mason]

same

[plush mason]

the way it died was so much worse

[raven stone]

Nah, it just shows this server demographic is not versed enough in Doctor Who (at least Tennant's run that is)

[plush mason]

no i mean the actual death of the last human

[raven stone]

Oh right

Humanity had gone out a couple of different ways in New Who, none of which are pleasant.

[plush mason]

yup

you really got to see the Doctor's merciless side

in many episodes

[raven stone]

The Doctor is probably the only one that can (tying this to 40k) give the Drukhari actual nightmares second to (or even above) Slaanesh

If The Doctor is sufficiently pissed enough

Even outside of Ten's run some of that ruthlessness remains

[plush mason]

"demons run when a good man goes to war"

[raven stone]

Indeed they do

I would even go as far as to say The Doctor could actually be smart, cunning and ruthless enough to collapse The Imperium in any sort of hypothetical situation where there is cause to do so.

[dapper gyro]

I don't know about the last 2 seasons, but the 9 to 13 are vulnerable, but also the most batshit crazy.

Despite being a mortal (until retcon later) the Doctor is literally the myth and legend across time and space.

[plush mason]

that one family of aliens that chased the Doctor looking for immortality got what they wanted in the worst way possible, each of them immortal but trapped in an endless hell

[dapper gyro]

Oh, one is in the mirror world.

[plush mason]

yup

can never be seen if looked directly at

[raven stone]

Old Who focuses on The Doctor being a bit of a classic British Gentlemen albeit in an unorthodox manner.

New Who focuses on The Doctor being a survivor who is...as ruthless as he is hurt, adventurous and helpful.

[dapper gyro]

And the other becomes a scarecrow forever standing in 1 place.

Mummified, but can't die.

[plush mason]

yup

[raven stone]

...I still find it sad the peak period ended after Capaldi's run.

Jodie acts well and I don't whine about supposed messaging but even then - the writing was all over the place.

[plush mason]

yeah my grandma watched the old Who and was surprised to see how different new Who is

[dapper gyro]

Lets be real, the Doctor is so strong because he is immune to knife attack, so the uk can't do shit against him.

Automatically gets the legendary immortal status.

[raven stone]

Ncuti...Again, writing issues and writers being far too blunt with things.

[dapper gyro]

I like how they connect the storyline of 1-8 and 9-12*.

[raven stone]

They have done good work with the story continuity...up until that one debacle in Jodie's run.

Look, the Timeless Child could have been a random other child and the entire plot would have worked (or be better even)

But saying The Doctor IS the Timeless Child? Yea...I find that iffy.

[dapper gyro]

A being near God hood but driven by traumatic experience by trying to live and blend in with normal beings.

[plush mason]

i stopped watching after the 11th

or 12th cant really remember

[dapper gyro]

Correction 12th*

[raven stone]

Jodie's run was...betrayed by the script. Which is sad because I liked the idea of Jodie being The Doctor for once.

But as said, bad writing. Then they tanked their own hard, well earned continuity work with Timeless Child.

[plush mason]

yeah it was the 11th

[dapper gyro]

12* has the episode where he is stuck in a loop millions of times, has to break a diamond wall with his own hand.

[raven stone]

Capaldi's run was kind of being carried by him already, I felt.

Oh I remember that, it felt inspired by escape room games

It was like that but on max hard mode.

[dapper gyro]

Then it turned out, it is set up by himself as a way to keep himself in check.

[raven stone]

"How long is eternity?"

[dapper gyro]

Days of the doctor was an interesting bridge to connect the old and new doctors.

However, the fact that he is only 200 something years old since the War Doctor makes me feel eh... It is too little.

[nocturne crest]

"The skies are made of diamonds."

[raven stone]

Fragging Toclafane...

[dapper gyro]

The end of the universe

The episode serves as the origin story of the master, so good.

However... The 1st thing he did after regaining his power was to become a politician, the worst kind of monster.

[summer mural]

I wonder if the darktide items in rogue trader are any good

[remote widget]

Wives of the emperor is an old term for SoB or does that predate them?

[rocky gale]

I think they were originally daughters of the emperor, then when Vandire took them they became Brides of the Emperor

May be mixing those two up though

[vagrant fox]

99.9% of them have more important things to do, like killing things

[storm jungle]

Yeah that is correct.

the new codexes (8th and 9th) also removed the more gross mentions of them serving Vandire's "needs" as well which is funny lol

[median star]

so is darktide the first time assails existed in lore i mean of course anyone at one point shouldve been able to do it but is this just the first time its been represented or shown to be a thing

[storm jungle]

They existed in the Dark Heresy RPG, it isnt a new thing.

Also psyker powers in 40k are literally "whatever the writers want at the time" so yeah.

[celest dome]

Spiteshards

[median star]

would a more powefull psyker be able to cast the same but able to pierce carapace or ceramite i presume

[tall plinth]

Okay

[celest dome]

In theory yes

[tall plinth]

So

[storm jungle]

Psyker powers in 40k are literally "whatever the writers want at the time" so yeah.

2x

[tall plinth]

Lemme get this straight

[median star]

has it been written yet

[storm jungle]

Probably.

Next question.

[celest dome]

Spiteshard/Assail not that I remember of.
Kinetic Knives I think it has

[queen laurel]

psykers can be straight up like this if the Writers wanted to

[storm jungle]

⬅️

[tall plinth]

I forgor what I was gonna get straight 💀

[storm jungle]

Alright see you later

[raven stone]

https://youtu.be/ifml0zl4KAY?feature=shared

Interesting thing I came across

[dapper gyro]

Assail is just picking up random object and throw it with psychic power.

[storm jungle]

Its always suppose to be satirical too, I dont really understand how people argue it isnt at any point.

[dapper gyro]

Say, Stone bullet from some RPG game is the same stuff.

[raven stone]

TBF this doesn’t make a refutation against 40k intended to be satire, but rather juxtapositions how views of 40k (and even the central 40k message) changes in response to real world events.

Which is why I found it a good watch

[storm jungle]

Yeah I know im talking in general

and you still got morons like this lol

[raven stone]

True XD

[queen laurel]

isn't satire that

so what does fighting things have to do with it

like even without things to fight it's still a rotting empire

[dapper gyro]

People don't even understand the word satire, let alone the satire itself.

[raven stone]

Or they have a poor opinion of satire if they feel something has to be defended from having the label applied to it

[storm jungle]

Helldivers has been the greatest example of that honestly

you can be as in your face as possible with the satire and people will just deny and not get it lol

[dapper gyro]

Many takes over the top aspect as "satire", even though many of it are not and it is more of a dick measuring contest.

[queen laurel]

bro they released the gas chamber warbond and people still thinking it's not satire

[celest dome]

Also with Punisher 💀

[queen laurel]

they released a gas weapon expansion

[dapper gyro]

Because they want to part of the more OP enthusiastic, as a sign of "strong"... Ex: Surface level Marines slaves.

They will lick Marines the cog piece all day to say they are better.

[storm jungle]

U.S Marines tattooing that shit on their arms and on hummers while they gun down middle eastern people definitely is a vibe lol

[queen laurel]

Funny thing is punisher would probably kill them because they are using his symbol and doing the wrong thing

[dapper gyro]

I'm glade that military here are against Punisher. We find those people to be hypocritical.

[vagrant fox]

The Imperium having legitimate enemies excuses fascism 🤓

[celest dome]

The current actor of Punisher once posted a photo of him in front of a Punisher skull with a blue line 💀

[dapper gyro]

There were some "thin line" knife series from Spyderco, a very reputed knife manufactory, the "thin blue line" in Canada are still in stock since 2015...

[raven stone]

The idea that Punisher can be judge, jury, executioner against criminals in the US (who can be ruthless) most certainly contributed to the misuse of the symbol

[dapper gyro]

The red and yellow are sold out years ago.

[raven stone]

Especially when people imagine criminality is on the rise. Or maybe it is, who knows.

I don’t live in US :p

[dapper gyro]

Also because of the long time pop culture with Hollywood, that it is now ingrain into the US society.

So many crazies even look forward for "crime" so they can be hero, which killed so many innocent people.

If they are asked to do actual heroic job like fireman or EMT, they can't, it is just too difficult for them. Getting a gun and pull the trigger is so much simpler.

[raven stone]

Considering the sheer number of police related incidents in the US, my only conclusion is that the US police are actually afraid of death/to die.

Which is why they so often shoot first.

I would just say that as a general rule of thumb, when you sign up to be a policeman, you really, really ought to have death in line of duty as a possible outcome already.

You don’t get to always shoot first and win to be a hero.

But that is what a lot of US officers seem to be stuck on.

(As for myself - if I were to drop dead right now, I can only hope it is instant.)

[dapper gyro]

If they are, then they are not fit to be a public servant.

What with uphold the law and protect the population when you are too scared for your own good?

[raven stone]

Most officers who shoot first are probably not fit.
But again, it is a concept most people don’t get…or they think they do, but ultimately when pushed in extreme circumstances, they fall apart and end up shooting first even if (out of action) they logically know they should not shoot first.

I will stay my hand a wee bit, and confess stress does funny things to people’s decision making.

[dapper gyro]

The action without consequence is a bigger issue than the "fear for my life" excuse.

[raven stone]

Oh I am not disputing that

But just stating the why, per se.

[dapper gyro]

Because they can do stupid shit, and just use an otherwise valid excuse for their unhinge behaviour.

[raven stone]

The consequences, or lack thereof, is technically a different conversation in the sense of how harsh accountability should be, which in itself is an even messier and more distorted can of worms

[dapper gyro]

It shouldn't be a different conversation when it has a direct correlation.

[raven stone]

Due to how most US people will do a 180 degree and sympathise with the police a bit more when the victim has dubious backgrounds and whatnot.
(…and I am not even going to touch the whole racial distortion issue just due to how insanely bad it is)

[storm jungle]

Im pretty sure that was a set photo for Born Again wasnt it?

Bernthal never struck me as that type, hes also openly supportive of queer people too, also literally kills crooked cops in the new show

[raven stone]

It is distorted by intolerance towards criminals in general, racial issues, a society’s natural preference for some form of order even if some mistakes happen…

[dapper gyro]

There are armed police in Europe, but you rarely hear of shooting incident.

[raven stone]

Well ok maybe not different, but most certainly difficult.

[dapper gyro]

Because if the police does, they face big responsibility, and they have to consider their action.

[raven stone]

The likelihood of a US criminal having a gun is relatively higher than European criminal having a gun.

[dapper gyro]

Paris has fking police and military patrol with machineguns...

[raven stone]

So it goes back to what I say.
US police has to not be afraid of the concept of dying on duty and “losing” a life to armed criminals.

[dapper gyro]

And people still protest and burn the city, yet we don't hear much of police shooting anyone.

[raven stone]

Wait hang on this is turning into something a bit different. You are implying US police are shooting live ammo into protests.

Like I mean I understand and know police wrongly shooting an individual or individuals, but at protests?

[dapper gyro]

No, Im not saying that. Im saying that even in extreme case, heavily armed police don't over step their power.

[raven stone]

Ok, we are on the same page. It does go back to what I am pointing out. US police overstep their authority out of fear of death, and then because everyone in the PD are usually afraid of death, they end up defending each other.

[storm jungle]

That excerpt has been shown to some people then they call THAT "woke" somehow

[raven stone]

Then you get some US citizens who either have suffered, or fears, the criminality violence, and they too would rather Police go overkill than miss anything.

TLDR the fear of death makes fools out of the entire US population.

When it comes to the matter of police violence.

[tough haven]

Also In the US even if they do over step, they rarely face censure more severe than a few weeks without pay, or if they are fired, they can just go to a new precinct, rarely are there criminal charges

[storm jungle]

the new Daredevil show covers this too

a girl's dad gets murdered by cops for walking from a trial as a freeman and what she says always stuck with me

[tough haven]

I gave up watching it cause I couldn’t get through seasons 2-3 of og daredevil

[storm jungle]

"Hes Hector Alvarez from the Heights and they are the fucking cops."

[storm jungle]

bad choice, they are peak

S3 especially is legendary

[tough haven]

I’ve got too many shows to finish bro

[storm jungle]

better step up

[tough haven]

I still gotta finish invincible

[raven stone]

The usual line I see arguing for this is “why should police suffer for doing their duty to defend society from criminals”, which to me is basically “well, look, if they shot the wrong person they aren’t doing the job right.”

But. To tie it back to my point about the fear of death (and, to a lesser extent, fear of armed criminals), when I did point that out, for once I got a response that was not yelling, and actually said…

“…Well, that mistake is a necessary sacrifice to pay.” [Or words to that effect.]

[and surprisingly civil.]

So yea.

Fear of death by criminality is making the entire US population fools.

[storm jungle]

Also the problem with U.S law enforcement is not that complex

It always comes from a place of want to abuse authority, prejudice or hate.

Its thoroughly documented unfortunately 💀

[dapper gyro]

In short, they lack of bravery and calm in highly stressful situation? So, cowards?

That's not the kind of things I want in a police organisation.

[raven stone]

I won’t dispute any of the above, though I would wonder if I am able to maintain such high standards if I were to be given the correct training and then thrown into the situation.

[dapper gyro]

If the military are like that, especially the "almost no consequence", friendly fire and collateral damage would be off the roof.

[raven stone]

Obviously that also implies Police should be trained to military psychological standards, but bringing that up is probably gonna be taboo for a lot of other reasons.

[dapper gyro]

It is not even high standard when so many other place in the world can do it.

[raven stone]

TBH this works better as an Inquisition quote. GW should have made the quote about making an arrest for wasting a ration bae by declaring it “not delicious” or something.

[raven stone]

Yea but other places don’t easily have firearms available is what I am saying.

I mean you might want to look at Switzerland though.

[storm jungle]

The entire point of Arbites is to satirize police brutality so it absolutely fits imo.

[raven stone]

That probably is the closest equivalent of how things should be.

[queen laurel]

the fact that we're getting someone from this organization as a companion is crazy

[raven stone]

I mean, having police shooting shotguns at minor petty crimes of wasting a ration bar is also police brutality :p

[queen laurel]

in rt

[raven stone]

In all honesty I expect Owlcat to make it so you can make him lean Iconoclast, much like how you can make Heinrix a radical Inquisitor ||or even just ditch the Inquisition and join as your master of whispers if you are a female RT romancing him||

[median star]

i was on i think ok term with him by end game || even the the he still left in the ending and it said he went to go meet some other inquisitor i think and then was never seen or heard from again ||

[raven stone]

Dumb Grimdark/Grimderp question.

…do Orks actually eat humans?
For some reason I have an impression it is implied they do but I can’t think of where I might have gotten that idea…

(Maybe it’s one of those War of The Beast novels?)

[outer wave]

I mean, tank bustas have been known to drink motor oil and gas as part of a ritual, so yeah I could see orks also eating humans

[queen laurel]

yes they do

[outer wave]

I think there was also a novel that implied orks keep imprisoned humans around as cattle

[queen laurel]

humans are meat

they love that stuff

[queen laurel]

yeah they keep humans as like slaves

[raven stone]

Ok thanks for clearing that up.
I am aware Orks take human slaves but since GW has left it to fans to decide what is done in said slavery…(probably for the better but still a lore gap)
Now I know it is probably as forced Labour and food supply (depending on Waaghboss preference)

[rose thorn]

@queen laurel THEY BUFFED HOBGROT SLITTA BOSS AGAIN

[queen laurel]

oh sick

what about ironjawz

[rose thorn]

It’s terrible don’t bring it

[rose thorn]

Oh you got an faq

[tough haven]

I think orks will eat almost anything

[storm jungle]

Its not much beyond just brutal servitude

they beat them up, they kill them or just simply like watching them suffer or use them for food, thats it really

the amount of awful shit they'd do them depends on the slavers lol

[queen laurel]

Or if you are incredibly unlucky kept around as a strategy slave

[raven stone]

https://youtu.be/PPAHHQf4las?feature=shared

Not exactly the usual critique, but also not the usual defence

[median star]

have orks ever been known to ransom their slaves

[queen laurel]

you mean use their slaves as bargaining chips?

[median star]

yea

[queen laurel]

not really because they don't really need to

a smarter ork can definitely do that

It's just that well

they're orks

their existence is already kind of a compelling argument of them taking what you have

[outer wave]

They don't get much from giving back humans

Like they can't ask for money because their money is teef

Aquilias or whatever wouldn't cut it

Weapons, they got their own weapons and ones much more suited for their needs

[queen laurel]

and again

if theu wanted something from you

they will take it by force

[outer wave]

Only exception could be Blood Axes and even then, they'd probably trade for something more substantial

[queen laurel]

Yeah but most of the time they would probably employ their cunning to just get it without using up slaves

[outer wave]

Mhmmm

[tough haven]

they can get things though

[outer wave]

They could get religion!

Or more organization anyway

[winter vessel]

Imagine seeing an Ork wearing Pastor Vestments preaching to a WAAAAGGHHH on a pulpit.

[crystal forum]

in the valley of shadows

we waaaaaaghhh

[tough haven]

I'd love to see ork warped perceptions of the bible

Jesus' ressurection isnt a big deal to them, cause orks get brought back to life all the time by mad doks

[raven stone]

No no no.
Orks think the Bible is written by the best Ork ever because that point was so relatable...

So apart from killing and eating Humans, what else can orks do with them?

[dapper gyro]

Slave

Livestock?

[queen laurel]

used as workers for backbreaking labor

[rose thorn]

Does anyone in 40K not use slaves?

[crystal forum]

orks would read the old testament and go hell yeah

[queen laurel]

and entertainment

[near wasp]

Votaan probably

[queen laurel]

Some orcs would keep around humans as pets

[crystal forum]

they would respect the shit out of the god of hellfire

[queen laurel]

Votaan is your best bet

[near wasp]

Tyranids maybe depending on your definition of slave

[crystal forum]

if you want to argue about definitions then are votaan not slaves to their system

[near wasp]

No because they have rights

[crystal forum]

slaves can have rights

[queen laurel]

no because they actually respect each other you know

hell they have literal actual functioning AI robots

and they treat them like they are living beings

they would even go out of their way to rescue one

These guys fully realized that making a fully sapient AI means you need to treat it as a living person

[crystal forum]

aren't leagues super against free will

[queen laurel]

what no

[crystal forum]

i thought they all had to respect their kin values or something

[queen laurel]

i would say that their leadership is pretty free and basice

[queen laurel]

yeah but like they're dwarves

[near wasp]

Respecting somebodys culture and trade isn't slavery

[crystal forum]

they're clones

[near wasp]

And?

[queen laurel]

how does that make them slaves

Does this scream slavery

Just like in warhammer fantasy dwarves , kin and family are important

[celest dome]

I bet Kin have on average more freedom than human in the Imperium

[queen laurel]

yeah 100%

[arctic talon]

Leagues of votann, craftworld eldar, Tau(if you don’t count prisoners), tyranids(?), genestealer cults are often the slaves rising up

[celest dome]

For Tyr, could it not be considered that Genestealer cultists could be considered Kins, as for the GSC, they have the people infected that are reprogrammed to help them against their wills

[arctic talon]

yeah you could count that against them

but LoV, CWE and Tau(excluding prisoners) don't use slaves

[queen laurel]

I was about to say tyranids but then i remembered

Gsc

Are literally tyranid slaves

[tough haven]

Exodites don’t use slaves

Drukhari don’t use slaves either, they use playthings

There’s a difference

[arctic talon]

Drukhari do use slaves

beyond just the usual "pet" comments about their slaves

they use other drukhari as slaves lol

[tough haven]

I was just making a joke lol

It would be notable if a drukhari didn’t use slaves

[sudden compass]

Think we'll ever get that captain guy's armor for Vet?

I like that Judge Dredd looking armor and the headdress

[dapper gyro]

Zealot maybe

[sudden compass]

Fuckin zealot? Why them?

[arctic talon]

The basic arbite armor prolly

[dapper gyro]

Because they are all zealous.

[near wasp]

Stand and die protocole enagaged

[spare osprey]

Yeah I mean we have palatine enforcer armor don’t we? I could see arbites eventually

[dapper gyro]

Vet personalities and overall in universe are much more open minded.

[arctic talon]

Arbite set would be fun

But it would also prolly be a “premium” set

Or whatever they’re called

I don’t buy skins in this game

[spare osprey]

Real

[arctic talon]

Actually that’s a lie

I bought the incense rebreather for zealot

[dapper gyro]

You feed the shark...

[sudden compass]

Everyone in the imperium is a zealot though, that dont fuckin count

[arctic talon]

Lol

[dapper gyro]

Eh...

[storm jungle]

Hm I wonder.

[spare osprey]

🤨

[storm jungle]

ITS A FUCKING SHOVEL

[dapper gyro]

Of everything, a shovel...

I can see the Krieg lickers all over Rogue Trader...

[outer wave]

Should've been a tiny Ogryn pet

[summer mural]

is the shovel super good though

[arctic talon]

It’s good in act 1

Falls off a cliff in act 2 onwards

[summer mural]

the heretek missions in mechanicus are insane

I dunno why they say easy lmao

also, the infiltrator aint that good

vanguards are pretty good though

[opaque coyote]

Darktide X Rogue Trader??

[arctic talon]

They’re trolling you

The difficulty is wrong on all of the heretek missions

[summer mural]

oh good

I thought I was doing something wrong

because im doing fine on the non heretek missions

but the first heretek mission like..

its a murder

[arctic talon]

Yeah no the Heretek missions are for omega nerds like me who optimize the shit out of a run

Or for mid game

[celest dome]

I quite disliked the veiled enemies in that one

[summer mural]

yeah ive been abusing invisibility

and now the ai is doing it

[celest dome]

Was quite annoying to have to wait for them to attack to be able to return fire

[summer mural]

also do you like run with 6 techpriests

or do you do like 3 and then troops

[celest dome]

2 or 3 iirc, but one was always the Summoner type, then 1 full melee, and 1 flex

[arctic talon]

It depends

3-4 is usually what I do

1 to abuse discounts and recast canticles

1 to summon thing

[summer mural]

Im doing full melee explorator, full ranged dominus and one hybrid lexmechanic rn

[arctic talon]

2 killy

[summer mural]

the melee guy is pretty crazy, they can basically walk the whole map in one turn

[celest dome]

Being able to slap a Sniper Necron is so fun

Wonder when M2 will have new info

[arctic talon]

Skulls

Imo

[summer mural]

still havent checked out m2 tbh

[celest dome]

make sense

[summer mural]

is the setting revealed

is it techpriests vs necrons again

[celest dome]

Yes

But you also have a Necron campaign

[summer mural]

oh nice

i gotta check out trailer sometime

[celest dome]

The monologue is mirrored of the 1st game one

[arctic talon]

It’s just a cinematic

Tbh I hope the ending isn’t a total everyone dies on the other side one

Lol

[summer mural]

the first games monologue is really memorable

[arctic talon]

Also surprisingly not playing as a necron overlord

Lol

[celest dome]

Wait we know that the Necron's will be ?

[summer mural]

" From the moment I understood the weakness of my flesh, it DISGUSTED me"

[celest dome]

Necon Overlord being the mirror of Faustinius would make sense

And Tech Priest being // Cryptek

[arctic talon]

Yeah she’s a varguard

[celest dome]

Like the Bodyguards ?

[arctic talon]

Yep

[celest dome]

Oh ok so you're not sending Vargards around

And it won't be mirrored in systems

Intriguing

[arctic talon]

I mean you might

She could be the lead vargard

We see Videx on the field

In one of the screenshots

[summer mural]

videx is my favourite so far

hes got endless quotes lol

someone really put their back into writing his dialogue

Have some grimdark pig lore

‘’Of course, few living humans had ever laid eyes on a porcine. Unless they worked on an agri world, they would never have encountered one of those bloated and obese sacks of stimm-injected muscle and sinew, too colossal to walk without breaking their spindly legs and force-fed high-nutrient chem-soup to keep them growing in the pens. They would never have come across a bovine, either, unless you counted the thready strands of protein-extract pumped into their ration-trays during sanctioned rest-breaks. Such things were legends, in much the same category as relics of the Saints, the Angels of Death or Manifest Acts of the Emperor – things that definitely existed, but were unlikely ever to be encountered.’’
