I was very surprised the season 2 intro singer was not a black woman but a white man

storm jungle
shadow plover
#

I mean you cannot deny that he sounds like a black woman

storm jungle
#

Idk man white dudes can have pretty high pitched legendary voices

shadow plover
#

It's not just that but the intonation as well

storm jungle

After a conversation with my mom, I'm going to try and watch Judge Dredd in the morning

#

Looks good

shadow plover
#

Stallone or Urban Dredd

storm jungle
#

I assume urban, most people dont really remember Stallone's one as much but staregryn

shadow plover
#

Saying Judge Dredd instead of just Dredd made be think Stallone

storm jungle

cursed

daring creek
#

I intend to watch the 1995 one

#

I tend to chose the older before the newer, cuz why not see the older one first?

shadow plover
#

Ha! Knew it

#

It's quite an average 90s action movie

#

Dredd is great

daring creek

fuck me I avoided playing video games so I don't stay up til 3 in the morning

This is your fault, Dilara.

I just hope the DLC delivers on all three fronts because omens of destruction was a bit mediocre

spring cairn

i liked omens but yeah

#

also the slanngors have the veil mask from uh

they look cool

Could have been better

Anyone heard about the John Carpenter's the Thing sequel? Hopefully it's good.

nocturne crest
#

There's a sequel?

#

Also, word is that the new predator film has a different tone than what the trailer portrays it as.

nocturne crest
#

Yeah.

#

I seen one or two people say it's like a marvel film.

#

So I'm assuming there is some form of self-deprecation in it or something.

shadow plover
#

What I've heard is that it's great, so calling it like a marvel film seems like an antithesis to that

wind zealot
#

Ironman marvel vs Morbius marvel

I've heard that there are a lot of complaints by people that aren't really big fans of Predators, but that the movie is indeed slightly more boring than the others

That's actually very cool

Very well done

dapper gyro

It is actually more terrifying than the normal marines.

near wasp
#

Imagine the warcrimes

dapper gyro
#

They said that marines don't care about colour because they wanted to be seen while destroying their foes. These colors are way more visible than anything.

west pendant
#

DAMN

#

thats actually makes sense

dapper gyro
#

It is just the player base insecurity, otherwise it is lore compliance.

I hate the memes about the death Korps almost as much as I am disappointed by krieg novels

#

Very slim margins there

glossy sonnet

#

krieg shouldnt even have gotten thier own reelase

storm jungle
#

thats the thing, its slop so it sells

#

i very much do not blame GW for banking on it, id do the exact same thing lol

rose thorn
#

if they didnt ahve their own unique rules that says 'krieg X' i wouldnt care

#

like last ediiton

paper haven
#

Yes, a properly sharpened entrenching tool (folding shovel) can hack a man apart like an axe.
But an axe can also do that and it probably won't break in the process.

glossy sonnet
#

Dont you love the krieg?? The funny shovel guys??? Your favorite!!

rose thorn
#

i play gsc

glossy sonnet
#

Armageddon steel legion? We don't need thise guys we have krieg!!!

rose thorn
#

every edition there is a 50/50 chance we cant use krieg

#

we couldnt use cadian troopers for a while lmao

paper haven
#

If guardsmen are mentioned it's either Cadians or Death korps

rose thorn
#

they have a regimental keyword, which someitmes means brood brothers cant have that keyword and sometimes they can

paper haven

The human wave tactics and the sad human wave tactics

either way GW expects you to buy 100 dollars worth of books for a bad detachment

guys after finishing rogue trader and space marine 2 what warhammer game should I play?

glossy sonnet
#

Dawn of war has many fans

shadow plover
#

Rogue Trader will keep you busy for months

storm jungle
#

^

#

think on Rogue Trader first then plan once you are like near done with it imo

#

Do SM2 then start up with Rogue Trader + get its DLCs, you'll be very occupied for awhile

shadow plover
#

I'm in act 5 out of 6

storm jungle
glossy sonnet
shadow plover
#

everything

glossy sonnet
#

I did everything and it took me a bit over 100 hours

#

how do you get to 200 😭

storm jungle
#

We love fucking around in RPGs

queen laurel
shadow plover
#

This also includes the expansions

glossy sonnet
#

I only did one expansion

shadow plover
#

but those are like 50 hours total only

#

I'm also playing on the hardest difficulty, though it doesn't really matter anymore. Early game took a while to get all combats without too much trauma left on my guys

west pendant
#

I just dont know what type of character to make in rogue trader

#

Should I go full-blown zealot

glossy sonnet
#

hardest difficulty didnt matter anymore once heinrix learned pyromancy

shadow plover
#

as I said early game was tough

west pendant
#

or should I give in to chaos!

#

be a heretic

shadow plover
#

but now Idira just looks at the enemies with a stern eye and they all take 3500 damage

glossy sonnet
west pendant
#

The thing is, I cant roleplay myself in videogames, I just dont know wtf ill do personally in those situations

#

so ill try to roleplay as someone else

shadow plover
#

Heretic playthrough is somewhat half cooked

glossy sonnet
#

in this game you're kinda abruptly thrown into your position so being unsure and indecisive can actually work pretty well

west pendant
#

should I try to be kind? just do the best I can? value human life in a setting where human life is expendable?

shadow plover
#

I started iconoclast (goodie two shoes) which then slowly descended to heresy and towards the end I'm all in with the heretic stuff

glossy sonnet
#

I wouldn't think too much of it. Just go with the flow and learn from the consequences of your actions

glossy sonnet
#

dont be afraid to make mistakes, they add to the story

west pendant
#

im not afraid of making mistakes, I just dont know what path to take 😭

I want to make a team that is nothing but imperial guardsmen, then delete the character everytime they go down

shadow plover
#

or you know you realize 3 acts later that the one option you took in act 2 was slightly incorrect so you lost your change with the romance

#

(the romance system isn't great)

glossy sonnet

yeah i think i messed up kibellah romance if its even a possible path

shadow plover

yeah that's the one

by being considerate towards her during the party, not pushing yourself upon her you lose the romance chance

hes racist too so KEKW_ogryn

Id say tho, rogue trader is the absolute best introduction to the warhammer universe

It definitely is

its at the top pedestal from how diverse it is in every department i think

Yee

you get to see wtf it actually means to live in that universe

i always recommend rogue trader before anything else for a new player

#

I love peoples reaction to the casual evils of the Imperium as well

humble shoal
queen laurel
#

My only issue with it is more just the Owlcat way of designing RPG

It doesn't have a lot of adrenaline and crunch it's more technical

Which I don't mind but it's not something I can sink my teeth into for a long while

glossy sonnet
#

that system it has where it lets you see what words mean and its dictionary are perfect

west pendant
#

owlcat focuses a lot on game mechanics, maybe too much

humble shoal
glossy sonnet
#

Plus you can see multiple factions, especially normal humans, and there isnt space marines dominating everything

queen laurel

also they are making a sequel as well, dark heresy! you play as an inquisitor

humble shoal

Though you know my favorite decision

#

Giving the infernus clan weapons

glossy sonnet
#

i am so hyped for dark heresy

paper haven
#

Freezing them to death and then gunning them down when they complain is what we call an overreaction

queen laurel

dark heresy is from the dark heresy TTRPG

I really want Dark Heresy to be good. Please, Owlcat

rogue trader is from the rogue trader TTRPG

its more that why should we give a single shit about this guy

Yeah the game just doesnt really do anything cool with its narrative besides being a space marine power fantasy

Yeah the plot is mid in general but that part is like "Why was this needed"

west pendant

it does really good at that tho

west pendant

as in, doing the space marine fantasy

storm jungle

Its basically propaganda like every 40k game to get you to buy minis so that checks out

To stop being a closed off ass

spring cairn

so i got it right

storm jungle

which in itself made no sense

spring cairn

he did learn the power of friendship

languid meadow

Since that's what caused him to be reported to the Inquisition since he didn't tell leandros shit

storm jungle
#

Thats what I love too

#

their squad drama lasts like 1 level lmao

west pendant
#

I mean its super hard to have a character learn to trust others, and bond together, when the 40k universe as a whole dont value those traits lmao

storm jungle
#

Its not really about trust

west pendant
#

it does undermine a bit the point of the whole thing

spring cairn
#

marines do bond a lot don't they

storm jungle

its more him just being a closed off dipshit for entirely zero reason

yeah they do

#

especially Ultras

spring cairn

they're a brotherhood after all

he has reasons tho

storm jungle

he does say that

"This conversation is over."

"i'm going to get milk"

and Gadriel suspects him even more

which is just stupid

west pendant

Yeah he isnt good at communicating

humble shoal

I wouldnt say its a writing flaw

he tells that to the squad

The codex astartes does not support this action

Everyone should read Red Rising it mogs warhammer

Its one of the only books ever who does a great job having the perfect split of an xenos/marine protagonist where its very fun in tone AND somehow the author makes both of them win in some capacity in a satisfying way

What would using a beast of nurgle for a demonhost be like? Is that possible or even something anyone would want to do?

dire loom
storm jungle
#

a beast of nrugle isnt a human

storm jungle
#

you'd be shoving a daemon inside another one

#

so it would mutate into something worse

tough haven
#

Probably would just instantly become a beast of nurgle but worse

storm jungle

#

this one lol

vagrant fox
#

World Eaters do multiple daemonhosts posession just fine, don't worry about it

tough haven
#

cause keep in mind, they have very little consciousness

near wasp
#

Yeah I'm gonna worry about it

paper haven
#

Daemons can possess other daemons but the daemon being possessed does not care for it

vital ginkgo
storm jungle
tough haven
#

The whole thing of daemonhosts is that the daemon needs to be able to be bound by pacts and whatnot

storm jungle
#

a Beast of Nurgle is like a very middle/high tier demon lol

#

i doubt a human could contain it as a host

tough haven
storm jungle

#

if their will is strong it would be worse for them, and they'd become like some floating slug monster

Alright

paper haven

Being a daemon host is just bad all around

storm jungle
# vital ginkgo Alright

Basically theres no set rule and its daemonc magic nonsense, do what you want with it, its what makes 40k fun.

Actually, a HBO GW show would be interesting.

not sure Beasts of Nurgle are smart enough to do a propper posession without simply taking over the flesh and materializing

Beast of nugle is also feral for the most part, sent in to disturb the enemy defense.

I liked first 2 SA books but not the 3rd

Became too marvelish

west pendant

the 3rd was also good imo but it started to repeat itself a lot

#

characters redoing the same arcs over and over

vagrant fox
#

Stormlight Archive is pretty fine, book 4 was a snoozefest though

tough haven
#

I just like the way he does settings and characters, and how by some fucking miracle they all exist in the same universe despite quite different settings

west pendant
#

book 4 was not that good

#

too long

#

too mechanical as well

#

I want to read fantasy to lose myself in the world not to get bored by scietific experiments and magitek mumbo jumbo

vagrant fox
#

anyways instead you should read red rising or the first law, the only two good book series

west pendant
#

i love the first law

#

If you havent you should read the heroes

#

its one of my fav books

vagrant fox
#

I've gotten through all of them, they're all very good

#

Best Served Cold or The Heroes are definitely favourites, the Wisdom of Crowds is a strong contender though

celest dome

#

I hated it even more

#

at least the 4th book tried to do something different even if I did not vibe with it

#

wind and truth I noped out 3/4ths of the way through

ill finish it at some point, maybe the ending is gonna redeem it somewhat

tough haven

I guess I liked it because it felt kinda flexible

I stopped reading in day 7

#

too boring, the conflicts that it setup were interesting on paper but brandon just goes about executing them in the most mundane way possible

sacred ginkgo
#

I don't remember what happens on which day, only the order of events

tough haven
west pendant
#

it drags so much, mainly beacuse I dont think the 5th book has interesting antagonists besides Odium, when you setup a conflict between factions, you need to make me care about all parties involved, if I only care about the good guy faction the book is gonna become a generic good guys are righteous and are gonna win story

sacred ginkgo
#

Do you care that much about the ending right now

west pendant
#

brandon lacks that with the || Fused, I just for the life of me cant remember one single Fused character that was good, they are only there to drag out the book and create meaningless tension and fight scenes, Adolins plot being the most egregious in that, its just a bunch of mindless fights that drag on endlessly ||

west pendant
sacred ginkgo
west pendant
#

also || kaladins and szeths arc, once again it drags, they are all on this quest to collect swords, while kaladin is trying to become the first therapist on Roshar, I dont mind the idea but its the execution that really lacks, sure kaladin isnt good at being a therapist, but at the same time its painted in such a juvenile way that I dont think Brandon himself gets how therapy works ||
