[dapper gyro]

But COE33 is just way better...

[celest cedar]

clair obscure sweep..

[dapper gyro]

Like, unfortunately too good all around.

[surreal nest]

Yes it us

Its a return to a dead formula

It should get the "willful resurrection" award

[dapper gyro]

It also tapped in an abandoned game gerne, which became anew to many people.

[storm jungle]

i think it should get a "my foot going up your ass" award 👀

[near wasp]

visi is the latest addition to the media tomboys of the decade, right up there with lois from the animated show

[surreal nest]

Shut it dumb dumb!

[storm jungle]

🥀

[surreal nest]

You sound like a pervert!

[valid needle]

I do love a bit of Big E glazing

[storm jungle]

Nahhh mentioning My Adventures With Superman's version of Lois is CRAZY

😭

[valid needle]

Glazing the Lion is better though

My king❤️

[near wasp]

i refuse to be called a perv for very simple simping

[dapper gyro]

BG3 Karlach is one as well...

[surreal nest]

There has been an excessive amount of lame quirky anime games this year for the awards

Also why does lords of the fallen keep making games lol

Third one now

The first 2 were mixed reviews

[near wasp]

i missed out on her romance because i selected the wrong option and all my other runs have been 4 player honor mode

[valid needle]

Keep throwing shit at the wall until it sticks I guess

[vagrant fox]

The Lords of The Fallen game got pretty decent after plenty of patches, too bad the CEO or whoever is a chud

[near wasp]

reminder that the rock is a gay nightclub, at least thats what i was told it was

[celest cedar]

as long as HD2 didnt won

ES

YES

[valid needle]

It is not a gay night club

I’ve checked

[celest cedar]

even better bg3 won

[valid needle]

I was extremely disappointed

[storm jungle]

yeah the only gay elements are from the real Lionel Johnson/his book

the nightclub thing is made up

[valid needle]

My day ruined when I get the train to Nottingham just to find there’s no gay nightclub called the rock.

[nocturne crest]

Holy shit....

[dapper gyro]

Call your bank for investment then open one.

[near wasp]

i was gonna make a bit of fun of you but you embrace it so wholeheartly i cant

[nocturne crest]

Wuthering Waves beat E33.

[storm jungle]

fucking rigged

lmao

[near wasp]

whats that

legit

[storm jungle]

cannot believe Sexpedition lost....

[nocturne crest]

Another game from the people who made Genshin Impact

[dapper gyro]

Gatcha game I think

[near wasp]

oh ok that makes sense

[opaque coyote]

No

[arctic talon]

Gacha game

[opaque coyote]

Different company

[nocturne crest]

Oh

[opaque coyote]

WuWa is made by Kuro Games

[arctic talon]

They said they’d give a lot of gacha currency if they won lol

[vagrant fox]

lmbo

[arctic talon]

Yeah it’s not hoyo

lol

[valid needle]

It is the sole purpose for which i was born.

[opaque coyote]

"PLEASE KURO I NEED THIS, MY ACCOUNT IS KINDA PULL-LESS.."

[arctic talon]

Uma Musume won mobile game

[nocturne crest]

Guess no one liked Dispatch.

[arctic talon]

Nah

Just not popular enough lol

[opaque coyote]

I tried WuWa for a short bit.

Actually fun but also made my computer scream in agony because Unreal Engine.

[arctic talon]

Giving gacha players free draws is the ultimate bribe incentive

lol

[opaque coyote]

You can wall run

[dapper gyro]

Even close 2nd is still just 2nd.

The fact that it got so many nomination is quite something already.

[opaque coyote]

Like actually run on fucking walls

Wild

[dapper gyro]

Death Stranding doesn't get anything.

[opaque coyote]

Too bad I couldn't really try it anymore because again

Unreal Engine

[arctic talon]

EX33

Again

lol

[vagrant fox]

Yeah no surprise

[dapper gyro]

Not a surprise really

[near wasp]

i need more rum

[opaque coyote]

I've been meaning to play EX-33

[abstract vector]

no different company

Wuthering Waves is Kuro Games

[vagrant fox]

It looks really good but I know I wouldn't care for the gameplay

[abstract vector]

not Mihoyo

Kuro Games made Punishing Gray Raven

[valid needle]

Eh I’m comfortable in my sexuality enough to be comfortable making jokes. It’s the people who get extremely angry and weird around jokes that are actually in the closet.

[abstract vector]

[celest cedar]

clair sweep...

(Im just salty my fav game dont get it)

[surreal nest]

I feel like Wuthering waves winning player choice was insane

[dapper gyro]

Btw the way, will she breeds a baby or an egg?

[near wasp]

true

[surreal nest]

Because how would clair obscure not when that when the fans do nothing but screech

[nocturne crest]

NGL, but the creators of E33 are probably panicking now.

[opaque coyote]

Mihoyo and Hoyoverse are actually separate companies technically

[near wasp]

+1 respect

[opaque coyote]

Owned by the same entity and basically the same anyways

So

Whatever

[nocturne crest]

They're going to have shareholders ask where the progress on the sequel is going tomorrow.

[surreal nest]

Shareholders?

[abstract vector]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qwIp78yQ1Uc
I meant was Kuro Games made Wuthering Waves

they also made PGR

[nocturne crest]

They got to get the sequel going.

[opaque coyote]

I know

[dapper gyro]

Arent they independent?

[opaque coyote]

More so just a fun fact

[arctic talon]

Bribery

[nocturne crest]

No clue,

[arctic talon]

More so saying “we will give you free draws if we win”

[opaque coyote]

What about Silksong

[arctic talon]

lol

Like

Like

[surreal nest]

Are you fr?

[arctic talon]

It makes sense

[surreal nest]

Thats bullshit

[vagrant fox]

The addicts crave more draws

[arctic talon]

Yes?

[abstract vector]

Yeah

[dapper gyro]

They won the independent game award.

[abstract vector]

I can confirm

[arctic talon]

It’s pretty normal for gacha games

[abstract vector]

I am a Gacha player

[arctic talon]

lol

[celest cedar]

idk

[surreal nest]

How is that legal dont game awards have cash prizes

[arctic talon]

No

[abstract vector]

every game award they encourage the players to vote because they give 10 pulls

[celest cedar]

consult the dnd breeding chart

[opaque coyote]

I LOVE 2D ANIME GIRLS RAAAGHHH

[celest cedar]

(as a reference)

[arctic talon]

Game awards doesn’t have cash prizes

Unless you count the physical trophy

But you don’t get one for players voice

lol

[abstract vector]

Its not cash prizes

[arctic talon]

It’s a trophy

Yeah

[abstract vector]

Its in-game premuim currency

[arctic talon]

No they’re saying you get money

[abstract vector]

let me get facebook

[surreal nest]

No i know I meant for the developers but I guess not

[arctic talon]

for winning at TGA

Nah

[abstract vector]

ah my bad

[arctic talon]

If the devs want money sell the trophy

Or uh

Idk

Sell more copies

[opaque coyote]

I mean

[surreal nest]

How long is this game show

[opaque coyote]

Why would you give out a cash prize for games who often like

[arctic talon]

Uma didn’t offer free draws lul

[opaque coyote]

Earn a lot

[nocturne crest]

Game called No Law, that looks like cyberpunk and Dishonoured have a child.

[celest cedar]

wait

wait

[dapper gyro]

Game of the Year Edition

[arctic talon]

I bet if it did

[celest cedar]

[arctic talon]

It would prolly like

[nocturne crest]

Oh no.

[opaque coyote]

https://tenor.com/view/oguri-cap-oguri-uma-musume-umamusume-squishy-gif-14372802265437813043

[celest cedar]

how the clair obscure devs

[arctic talon]

Get on the list

[celest cedar]

got so much funding for their 1st game

[nocturne crest]

Todd is announcing an award

[surreal nest]

Why would companies get more money when they already have a fuck ton of money?

How do I answer that?

[arctic talon]

https://tenor.com/view/uma-musume-uma-musume-meme-uma-musume-cinderella-gray-cinderella-gray-oguri-cap-gif-9580092192254010059

[dapper gyro]

The parent of the team lead is a multi millionaire.

[abstract vector]

not yet atleast

Usually it takes 2-3 days they announce the rewards

[arctic talon]

They’re prolly going to give them lol

[abstract vector]

Same thing with Genshin Devs

[arctic talon]

But they didn’t announce before hand

[abstract vector]

[arctic talon]

Which is funny

[abstract vector]

I know this black magic because I vote for gachas I play

[surreal nest]

The guy said you can play the new Diablo class today which would be a hype shadow drop

[abstract vector]

[celest cedar]

icic

makes sense

[opaque coyote]

"Let's have a fair competition!"

"...WITH THIS TREASURE I SUMMON... GAMBLING ADDICTS!"

[vagrant fox]

I must be strong, a part of me really wants to out of sheer Diablo nostalgia

[surreal nest]

Yeah for an independent game clair obscura had a metric fuck ton of actual people working on it

Which is whatever

[arctic talon]

15000 free karats if we win

/j

[jade holly]

Is there anything 40k being shown off today?

or nah

[surreal nest]

Maybe

[arctic talon]

I’m not sure what the exact amount of currency wuwa offered was

lol

[abstract vector]

Creative Assembly not yet out

[surreal nest]

Its possible with total war

[vagrant fox]

maybe, nothing 40k so far

[abstract vector]

Like I want them to reveal it already

[arctic talon]

CA might do something

[abstract vector]

[arctic talon]

But we dunno

[surreal nest]

Did you guys hear the announcer say let's travel 40k years into the future

[abstract vector]

Also King Arts might be active

[surreal nest]

But it was for another sci fi game

[jade holly]

Yeah I got lied to

[celest cedar]

oooh ok

[surreal nest]

I got a little mad lol

[arctic talon]

It was funny also that game was cool

lol

I really liked how that game looks

[celest cedar]

so kepler interactive and some private investors apparently @dapper gyro

mustve been one hell of a pitch

[surreal nest]

I was playing deadlock and I fully focused onto TGA

[arctic talon]

Did you lose

[surreal nest]

No

The lash never loses

[arctic talon]

5 days until gogmas

[arctic talon]

The lash agrees with this statement

[abstract vector]

god I wished skip the singing

just show games

[dapper gyro]

When your parents have connections.

[arctic talon]

Still independent

By the raw definition of indie rather

[dapper gyro]

Technically, because Kepler doesn't own the studio.

[celest cedar]

honestly good for them tho

always wondered

how tf does a indie game

[opaque coyote]

WITH THE POWER OF NEPOTISM! I HAVE THE POWERRR-

[celest cedar]

afford jen english, ben starr...

devora wilde...

[opaque coyote]

https://tenor.com/view/he-man-he-mana-gif-5304825

[celest cedar]

maybe I'll buy clair sometime on discount

that is more than 20%

[arctic talon]

They’re more indie then Dave the diver if we go by the literal definition tbh

[lament shoal]

What did I do lol

[arctic talon]

But also like

Eh

lol

[celest cedar]

technicality is a funny thing aint it

[abstract vector]

[abstract vector]

💀

[arctic talon]

No they aren’t

Not by the literal definition

They haven’t been for years

[dapper gyro]

Well, was*

[arctic talon]

They were owned by Leyou, and now tencent

Since like 2015 or 16

[abstract vector]

very weird because SM II showed multiple trailers

[arctic talon]

Well

Idk

Prolly got the money to throw around

[abstract vector]

[dapper gyro]

Though DIgital Extreme has a very weird relationship with their parent company.

[near wasp]

the sex seritor convo

[nocturne crest]

New Hitman mission

[arctic talon]

Tencent just doesn’t touch them now lol

[nocturne crest]

https://tenor.com/view/alice-draw-resident-evil-come-at-me-bro-milla-jovovich-gif-11658262

[arctic talon]

It’s really funny

Leyou was also insanely hands off

So nothing really changed

[lament shoal]

Ah that. Look I just had to drive home how fucked the imperium is thats all lol

[opaque coyote]

Baddieboo speaking the truth

[abstract vector]

IF ZZZ wins I get 10 rolls

Wuwa wins I get 10 Rolls

[arctic talon]

They made him less old

[opaque coyote]

I play the Genshin and HSR

[nocturne crest]

Arc Raiders beat BF6 and Elden Ring Nightreign.

[celest cedar]

https://youtu.be/VxzyVeAG00w trailer out for anyone missed it

[opaque coyote]

[daring creek]

How much money have you spent in hsr

[opaque coyote]

That looks sick

[celest cedar]

lizard sex

[dapper gyro]

Oh right, Larian is a private company... so kind of independent.

[abstract vector]

None

[opaque coyote]

Uhhh

$70?

Total

[dapper gyro]

Same with Valve...

[abstract vector]

I never used money on Gachas

[arctic talon]

[dapper gyro]

Wait, why the fucking Ultramarines??

[nocturne crest]

[opaque coyote]

GOD DAMMIT NOT AGA-

[arctic talon]

[storm jungle]

HAHAHAHAHA

[celest cedar]

[storm jungle]

everyone in here saying "it wouldnt work"

lmao

[vagrant fox]

That one smurf getting murked by the orks was poggers

[dapper gyro]

Ultramarines 3rd Coy.

[surreal nest]

I love your implication that the idea that they did it meant they worked

[dapper gyro]

SO not Titties this time

[surreal nest]

They made league of legends, did it work!!!!

NO!!!!

[arctic talon]

If it’s not in a new engine then I’ll be surprised

lol

[storm jungle]

Eat it

[arctic talon]

Is it in the existing engine lol

[storm jungle]

[storm jungle]

idfk

[vagrant fox]

Looks interesting

[dapper gyro]

Hey, I can see Cadia

[storm jungle]

Also just ognna say

[arctic talon]

lol

[dapper gyro]

(it is dust)

[arctic talon]

Can’t wait for the entire UM chapter to die

[storm jungle]

using the segmentums as maps for the logo is cursed

[arctic talon]

Like

500 times

[arctic talon]

This looks cursed yeah

[languid meadow]

It looks cool

[storm jungle]

Close enough, welcome back Dawn of War 2

[surreal nest]

I know what everybody will say but them just showing two factions for a total war game is kinda silly

[storm jungle]

that was literally Total Waaaghammer 1 so

shut up bitch

[surreal nest]

Wasn't very interesting to me!

[storm jungle]

[arctic talon]

It’s gona be like total war warhammer 1 lol

Ace combat

Peak

[vagrant fox]

if Eldar aren't a base faction I'll burn Nottingham

[arctic talon]

I’d bet it’s marines, guard, orks, eldar lol

[dapper gyro]

Ace combat 8

[surreal nest]

I enjoy total war warhammer for the variety and diversity so

[vagrant fox]

I'd bet but you never know

[languid meadow]

I did see eldar

[storm jungle]

You arent interesting!!!!

[arctic talon]

Yeah it took them a fuck ton of time to get there lol

[lament shoal]

The new game looks cool

[nocturne crest]

ACE COMBAT 8

[arctic talon]

Yes

[nocturne crest]

This is crazy

[surreal nest]

It adds to my previous argument, total war warhammer 40k will fucking suck till 10 years time!

All CA games suck at first!

[dapper gyro]

F zero?

[vagrant fox]

now this is pod racing

[languid meadow]

The factions I saw were space marines, orkz, guard, and eldar

[surreal nest]

Although if we get thousand sons leaked I will just preorder

[nocturne crest]

pod racing game!

[wintry scarab]

All of these chapters besides the ultramarines, are custom chapters right?

[surreal nest]

I would love to play as the thousand sons

But I doubt we will

Mostly excited for chaos in total war 40k tbh

[surreal nest]

If they have an army painter tool

That'd be gas

[spring cairn]

there was a guardman too

[vagrant fox]

Looks like there's an army painter

[spring cairn]

but it's hard to say if he was just set dressing or not

[nocturne crest]

It's Sebula

[storm jungle]

https://youtu.be/KVgCDqLTaJk

[languid meadow]

I wonder what "guard" means

[wintry scarab]

Im pretty sure they do.

[vagrant fox]

very nice

[languid meadow]

Me was right

[spring cairn]

astra milipede

or something

ur in the guard son

[near wasp]

WAIT

YES

[surreal nest]

I wonder if chaos will be like a neutral enemy

It has to be right?

[spring cairn]

army painter

fuck yes

[surreal nest]

It was in total war?

[arctic talon]

They’ll be first dlc prolly

[spring cairn]

this shit so peak

[arctic talon]

Like in total war warhammer 1

[surreal nest]

Who was the first chaos dlc?

Archaon?

[abstract vector]

LETS FUCKING GO

[arctic talon]

Uhhh

Lemme double check

[abstract vector]

ITS MODDABLE

FUCK YETS

YESS

[storm jungle]

WE TOLD THEM

THEY DIDNT LISTEN

[surreal nest]

No chaos space marines at all in the game at launch is kinda crazy

[near wasp]

https://tenor.com/view/illumination-asian-man-enlightened-oh-okay-gif-16379366

[spring cairn]

later 2026

[dapper gyro]

SOB is in the thumbnail, so they will come as DLC, too.

[storm jungle]

was the same case with Total Waaaghammer 1

[lament shoal]

Whats the time stamp for the TW 40k reveal?

[storm jungle]

DLCs 💀

[storm jungle]

https://youtu.be/KVgCDqLTaJk

[arctic talon]

Archaon/sigvald/Kholek

[abstract vector]

December 16

[arctic talon]

Were the first

[abstract vector]

More gameplay footages

[surreal nest]

Ohhh ok that makes it a good choice

[lament shoal]

Ty

[outer wave]

Waiter! 10 billion DLCs for each esoteric race!

[arctic talon]

Also I called it

Marines are generic

It’s not one specific chapter lol

[surreal nest]

I wonder if they will do space marine chapter dlcs

[arctic talon]

we will get dlc later for the slop angels

[surreal nest]

They will

[arctic talon]

Absolutely

lol

[dapper gyro]

Imagine you get DLC as "Guards supplement" to add other planetary regiments.

[arctic talon]

We’re going to get dlc

For the subfactions

For all the factions

[vagrant fox]

DLCs easy money, yeah

[arctic talon]

I’m 100% sure lol

[spring cairn]

yeah

[arctic talon]

They’ll fill out the roster with dlc per faction first

[spring cairn]

total war always get tons of dlc

[arctic talon]

Then move on to subfactions

[surreal nest]

Idk call me a hater but I am not interested in any of the base factions!

I will wait!

[arctic talon]

Reasonable

Anyways eldar

Gimme gimme

If I see units in rank and file I’m going to cry/hj

[storm jungle]

the worst part is

i know literally everyone in here at the least will buy 1 DLC

lmao

Im already a sellout so I know i will

[abstract vector]

including you too

[surreal nest]

Ngl cool game show though, resident evil requim looks SICK

[abstract vector]

like the golden skulls skins

[surreal nest]

We needed a new cheesy Leon kennedy game

[abstract vector]

[vagrant fox]

I will remain strong and never ever buy a single DLC

[jade holly]

I’m just happy the Total War: 40k is gonna be on Xbox

[outer wave]

||CreamAPI||

[jade holly]

Never played a Total war game before

[surreal nest]

I cant imagine playing an rts on console

No flame

But holy shit

[dapper gyro]

You underestimate some people here.

[jade holly]

I played Age of Mythologies

not for a long tome

But I played it

[fervent geode]

I cant play it sadly, use a potato laptop, but happy for yalls

[surreal nest]

Overestimate more like. You losers will buy multiple!

Anyways time to go play total war and sit on the faction select screen lookin at the 16 dlc packs i bought but havent touched!

Thank you CA!

[languid meadow]

I would say I'm not betting on getting some dlcs but like

[arctic talon]

I will buy a admech dlc, and prolly an inevitable subfaction dlc for the other factions lol

[languid meadow]

I'm pretty sure every faction will get added

[surreal nest]

I will literally be the games largest fan and hog rider of I get thousand sons

[languid meadow]

Unlike fantasy 40k is immensely popular

[spring cairn]

i don't see why they wouldn't do the exact same formula they did for fantasy

[wintry scarab]

Anyone recognise any of these? These are just to show off the fact that you can customize factions, right?

[languid meadow]

So they probably won't get hamstringed by GW

[surreal nest]

Yes

[arctic talon]

These are all custom yes

They have an army painter

[spring cairn]

yeah was bout to say

[wintry cloud]

games workshop have my children

[wintry scarab]

Cool, just making sure. Thx

[arctic talon]

Marines are generic

[wintry cloud]

there is no peace amongst the stars

[arctic talon]

Which makes sense

I’d assume all the factions are

“Generic orks”

“Generic guard”

[jade holly]

I’m guessing Necrons are gonna be dlc

[spring cairn]

i'm so happy they got the guard in

[arctic talon]

They’re not base game so yes

[languid meadow]

Every other faction is gonna one besides the 4

[vagrant fox]

Sometime down the line they'll be

[spring cairn]

i was expecting them to be dlc

[jade holly]

What factions are in the game that we know of?

[arctic talon]

Im all in on chaos warriors space marines being launch dlc

[languid meadow]

Surprised we didn't get a chaos faction but it took until wh3 to get monogod factions

[spring cairn]

guard, marine, ork and necron i think ?

[abstract vector]

Yellow guy is Scythes of the Emperor and Red is Red Templars?

[spring cairn]

but i'm cooked rn

[languid meadow]

Eldar

[arctic talon]

Guard, Marine, orks, cwe

[vagrant fox]

A lot of wushu games these days

[languid meadow]

Marines
Orkz
Guard
Eldar

[spring cairn]

oh

would've loved necrons, ig they'll be dlc

[arctic talon]

Total war 40k will make new eldar fans

[languid meadow]

We'll probably get chaos first

[spring cairn]

that's already a very solid starting roster

[arctic talon]

If chaos isn’t first

I’ll be surprised

[spring cairn]

i expected worse

[arctic talon]

CA picked the factions with the deepest rosters

First

[dapper gyro]

China is investing in their studio.

[arctic talon]

Which is smart

[jade holly]

You’ll never get me to love knife ears

No matter what genre

[arctic talon]

orks, cwe, marines and guard

Have the most shit

[dapper gyro]

Also, many western studio outsourced to China, so now Chinese studio are all experienced dev.

[arctic talon]

Then it’s like CSM, Crons, Nids

[near wasp]

just because this i wont ragebait twitter tomarrow

[arctic talon]

LOL

[storm jungle]

also

they literally show the segmentums at the end

yeah we are getting a galactic map lol

[arctic talon]

How the fuck is this going to work

I’m so scared

[vagrant fox]

The propaganda is working, I want to watch 30,000 Miles from Chang'an

[arctic talon]

Tabletop wise?

[jade holly]

Yeah

Are they mainly just Necron Warrior commanders?

[arctic talon]

You run none rn for comp.

Lore wise 1-6 depending on lords/overlords present

[lament shoal]

That trailer was fucking cool

[arctic talon]

For casual play

Do whatever you want

I would not run more then 2 though

They’re expensive

[abstract vector]

usually two squads is allowed

or more

[jade holly]

Are they not added to other squads?

For the total war subreddit

I have all original 6 questoris, 2 dominus, and 8 armigers.

[near wasp]

[signal bramble]

(Those wings aren’t broken, they’re magnetized so I can swap for foot daemon prince or winged.)

[arctic talon]

no

Small Knights aren't great rn

ironically

[near wasp]

oh

[signal bramble]

I also have a Drukhari army but they’re in storage rn. :x

[near wasp]

i have a few ultra marines

everything else is shame piled

[nocturne crest]

They made Fantasy Titanfall?

[signal bramble]

I’ve painted a Seraphon army as well. Here’s my favorite piece from it.

I freehanded the tiger stripes yes.

[near wasp]

[signal bramble]

I won’t spam pics but here’s the Drukhari mandrakes.

[near wasp]

is that phoser green

[signal bramble]

I hadn’t based them yet.

The flames are three different greens.

[dapper gyro]

Citadel colour names always throw me off...

[signal bramble]

For my actual kabal I used turquoise as a unifying color.

[arctic talon]

ngl

even non citadel names are goofy

lol

Mini painting paint is often goofy

unless its vallejo or AK

[signal bramble]

Iirc it was Caliban green, moot green, and tesseract glow.

[near wasp]

i meant the tactical paint tesseract glow

[signal bramble]

That was one of them yes.

[near wasp]

did that paint glob up with you too?

because bro ive bought three vials and they all globbed up

[signal bramble]

It did. I used a stick to break the chunks apart and shook it up real good.

And stirred it with said stick.

Took time but I bent it to my will.

[near wasp]

OK ok i bought a handheld pint mixer recently

[dapper gyro]

Can you tell me the colour by normal people term?

[near wasp]

im glad im not the only one with this issue

[jade holly]

[celest cedar]

I managed to avoid any clair spoilers this whole time

[nocturne crest]

Yes, they won 9 awards!

[signal bramble]

Best I can do sorry.

[vagrant fox]

green green and greenblue

[wintry cloud]

expedition sweep

beautiful

[signal bramble]

Caliban green is Forest green tbh

Though I’ve taken a break from warhammer models. I’ve been painting another game called Conquest the Last Argument of Kings.

I was totally bored during the summer so I painted an entire 2k army for that game from June to August.

Speed paints go brrrr

[signal bramble]

There’s a faction that’s like the Drukhari haemonculi and the nids. So I was all in. >_>

I wanted to share my paint station also. XD

[dapper gyro]

I use 5 different brands, so using Citadel names give me concussion.

[celest cedar]

how many did bg3 won

[dapper gyro]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_accolades_received_by_Baldur's_Gate_3

[signal bramble]

Tried bg3. Absolutely hated the combat system. Couldn’t do it.

If you like it, great but it’s not for me.

[languid meadow]

Deadpool and Elsa Bloodstone

[signal bramble]

I don’t play that game but desperately want to hear Deadpool’s voice actor.

[celest cedar]

wallahi an entire wiki page

[languid meadow]

Alejandro saab

[dapper gyro]

Elsa is one of my favorite non main stream character, but that is not enough to make me play Rivals.

[signal bramble]

I mean his performance as the character. Performing Deadpool always has a very high bar set.

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=1WuNY6qViYQ

Still my favorite Deadpool VA

[languid meadow]

https://youtu.be/Aj53c2Uxrtc?si=t4CK1MBoWGWyVH4R

[signal bramble]

Not a fan. 🙁

[tough haven]

Bro why are all rivals character proportions so fucked

Like they don’t look like that in comics mostly

[opaque coyote]

Why is Deadpool's bulge so prominent

[tough haven]

Well that is consistent, actually

[opaque coyote]

... actually why am I even asking that

[abstract vector]

Mark calendars May 23 2026. Its been consistently May 23 for 3-4 years. So we get total war 40K news

https://youtu.be/C4A1s4DH78w?si=NXid6VzXeBVF6bu_

[jade holly]

Wanna know something funny?

I knew about Deadpool for a while lol

[signal bramble]

It’s all stylized and stylized tends to age better.

[jade holly]

[tough haven]

I think a lot of us did

[signal bramble]

Deadpool being added was obvious from the start. It’s not some hilarious big mystery.

We all knew it was gonna happen sooner or later.

Tbh given how popular he was I thought he was gonna be in the game at launch.

[nocturne crest]

Else bloodstone was a surprise.

[signal bramble]

Agreed.

[languid meadow]

it's pre alpha so I betting it will change but fuck I don't like the current UI

but the map is a slightly smaller siege/settlement map in size

[surreal nest]

It looks like a game that would be playing in the background TV in a movie

[languid meadow]

yeah a bit lmao

I just hope it changes for the better

also worried that it's inclusion on console doesn't dumb it down

[signal bramble]

Ah the rts right.

I forgot about that.

[languid meadow]

full art

[signal bramble]

Putting the Lion in the game is definitely a choice. Granted he’s my favorite primarch and the dark angels are my favorite loyalist chapter.

I just never expected a playable Primarch in a game.

[signal bramble]

Oh is it?

[surreal nest]

Yeah they announced total war warhammer 40k

[signal bramble]

Well my point still stands about the lion in that other game. XD

[abstract vector]

Kaurava Moment

Spess Mahrines vs IG

[fervent geode]

Kronus...

Never forget

[signal bramble]

My dream 40k game is an imperial knights version of armored core. I know about the mobile game but I mean something much bigger in scale with a full campaign.

And choices to go freeblade, loyalist, or traitor.

[dapper gyro]

Mechwarrior is closer to ImpKight than Acore.

Acore is too fast and has a lot of vertical gameplay.

[abstract vector]

I didnt mentioned it because we have round 2

My chapter will shoot Lukas Alexander’s and his troop’s Descendants

[cinder pivot]

I want to imagine this is the cinematic display for siege mode and more ships surround the planet if a large fleet is attacking the planet. Would be so beautiful.

[arctic talon]

Armored core would be Tau tbh

even armored core 5 the slowest one has stuff an Imperial knight cannot do like wall jumping lol

[cinder pivot]

A subset of Aeldari are Polish confirmed.

[arctic talon]

wtf is that craftworld

Is there anywhere that is officially supported where I can read the data sheets and rules of an army or will I need the codex?

[arctic talon]

not officially but unoffically

check your DMs

[jade holly]

This already sounds sketchy

[languid meadow]

it really isn't

well kind of lmao

[green loom]

Elite already kidnapped him

[languid meadow]

GW can suck a fat one

[jade holly]

Elite showed me pro Eldar stuff

Shit was scary

[languid meadow]

70 bucks for a rule book on top of another 50 for a codex

[jade holly]

I mean you also get a lot of art and lore stories no?

Not just rules and data

[green loom]

Less and less as I understand with every edition

[languid meadow]

seems that way but I can't fully speak on that

either way the price point is still insane

for the BASE needs for the game

[jade holly]

And we’re what?

Halfway through 10e?

Should I just wait and instead start buying some model packs?

[shadow plover]

11th is starting to creep up

if you're not planning on games before summer I'd hold up on the codex purchase

[languid meadow]

I mean you can buy models if you just want them to assemble and pain

[languid meadow]

^

[jade holly]

I don’t even know if there’s others who play 40k near me

I wanna play tabletop but I might be the only person in my area who does

[arctic talon]

buying plastic is fine

but rules are a bit more volatile

if you play marines never buy a codex when its close to a new edition lol

[arctic talon]

9e and 10e are about the same but both are way less then 8e

[abstract vector]

can we mentioned wahapedia

or banned

💀

[jade holly]

Isn’t the jump to 11e from 10e much less extreme than from 9e to 10

[languid meadow]

https://tenor.com/view/shrug-dexter-morgan-idk-gif-2440520923239485215

[shadow plover]

we can't really say at this time

[languid meadow]

I dont think we've heard anything for 11th but I could be wrong

[arctic talon]

yes

according to leaks 11e is not a hard reset

10e also probably shouldn't have been a hard reset

[jade holly]

I just wish there was a more beginner friendly introduction for rules than the $60 price tag for a rule book

[arctic talon]

but thats a whole grognard rant from me

[arctic talon]

Combat patrol

rules are all free on warcom

[shadow plover]

8 -> 9 was very minor, basically polishing it to a better system. 9 -> 10 was quite the substantial shift in style where as I believe 11 will continue with the polish of 10

[arctic talon]

https://www.warhammer-community.com/en-gb/downloads/warhammer-40000/

[jade holly]

That’s officially supported?

[arctic talon]

yes

warcom is literally GW's website

for community out reach

which they made in 8e

[jade holly]

It’s all downloads tho

Def not mobile friendly

Maybe it is and I’m just once again extremely paranoid

[green loom]

It's like

[abstract vector]

8 was ass balancing wise

[green loom]

Drive files

[abstract vector]

9th was slowly ok

[arctic talon]

my brother in christ this is literally GW's website

if you don't belive me check warhammer.com

[green loom]

It'll just show up as pages in your phone's respective viewing app

[arctic talon]

and it'll drag you there lol

[jade holly]

Once again, extreme paranoia lmao

[arctic talon]

💀

this goes beyond paranoia into being illogical

just get the app then it also has the combat patrol rules on it

it also just opens the same PDF

[green loom]

You're more susceptible to something clicking to reply on this app than you are downloading something from there

[arctic talon]

lol

[jade holly]

I’m so fucking dumb, I can just click on the titles instead of download

[queen laurel]

the paranoia that extreme you're about the intelligence of an Puritan inquisitor

[jade holly]

And it shows up to date balance changes?

[abstract vector]

yeah

GW on socials keep announcing it

only problem is sometimes the app gets updated 1-2 days later

which is a bitch sometimes

[jade holly]

Now that I know this exists, what does Codexes give that this doesn’t?

[abstract vector]

legally you need codes

You need to buy the codex to access them on the app

💀

[arctic talon]

combat patrol rules don't get updated since they come out its its own thing

All balance updates are on warcom, Wahapedia updates when the website updates

[sleek dagger]

Yesss finally announced

[arctic talon]

the app updates as well

[jade holly]

Should I still eventually get the codex anyways in the future?

or the core book

[arctic talon]

If you want to

Core rulebook is always good for lore

[jade holly]

Do I need to keep buying that every new edition?

Or is it one and done

[shadow plover]

new edition, new rules

[arctic talon]

every edition if you want the lore, but there's a lot of rehashed stuff like the faction intros

GW always make core rules free

Core rules are always free

as are all rules updates

[jade holly]

So if anything I’ll need to get the codex every new edition

core book I can leave out cause that’s free access?

And since 11e comes out mid 2026 I’m better off just building up my army to prepare for a fresh new codex

[arctic talon]

Yes

[shadow plover]

Codex releases also don't happen instantly when an edition releases

[arctic talon]

^

yeah that

[shadow plover]

most of the edition you will probably make do with the last edition's codex unless there's a major shake up in the way rules work and youll get an index instead of a codex for a while

[arctic talon]

Well

Also there’s the fact you might be lucky/unlucky

Depending on your perspective

And get a new codex early

[shadow plover]

I think the last codex release for 10ed was like last summer, 2 years after the edition launched

though I've not been paying that much attention to the later releases this time around

[celest dome]

The new formula for TW seem interesting, but will need to see more to really say if I like it or more.
At the very least, it seem quite different from the usual TW games

[arctic talon]

It’s very different

Which is good

[fervent geode]

I hope they can pull it off, seems like a huge leap

[shadow plover]

I was pretty bewildered how people didn't grasp the idea that they'd be adjusting the systems to fit the setting and wouldn't be sticking to the strict rank and file way of the older games

[celest dome]

People (me comprised) thought that cause they didn't do it for quite a couple of games and incurred a lot of dev debt

[outer wave]

Ngl Cacti, thought you'd explode at the thought of a 40k Total War being made real

[wet sandal]

So the actual battles will be a lot more like DoW

Except no buildings

[outer wave]

Looks like DoW 2 to me

Which is weird to say

[fervent geode]

Huh

I reckoned they'd have to change everything, it being like DoW 2 is... interesting, i wonder how they might bring it to console

[abstract vector]

DOW II

it has a cover system

noticed the IG has cover

[wet sandal]

Dow 1 had cover too

Besides, I don't mean any particular game from the DoW series

[celest dome]

Nah, tbh I considered the TW 40k idea to be too strange and that there would better/easier scopes for TW games that I'd rather see.
But prop to the Devs if they manage to make it work. Which remain to be seen

[jade holly]

Alright I got the app and have just been reading through the core rule stuff

[sleek dagger]

I want to see if couple custodes can manhandle full ork army

[jade holly]

Seems like I don’t need the core book whatsoever like I was told earlier

[fervent geode]

Yeah you dont

Maybe i just like to look at it

[abstract vector]

Core rules are free

Codex rules are paid

You need 60 dollars

[outer wave]

Considering it looks like they'll move away from the normal Total War style of gameplay and maybe even an engine change? It could come out good

[jade holly]

But the art tho

$60 for pages with images on them

Mmmmm

[fervent geode]

Yeah

I like to just open it

And read a little

And look at the art

[wet sandal]

Mfw I buy objects for money

[fervent geode]

Fun times

[fervent geode]

This might be the end of the barter system...

[wet sandal]

I can't talk since I bought the collectors space wolf codex

[fervent geode]

Lmao

[jade holly]

THERE’S A COLLECTOR’S VERSION???

[wet sandal]

Sometimes

I got the one that came in the limited edition ™ space wolves refresh box

[abstract vector]

wait

you dont know about the 80-90 dollar collectors edition or special edition?

GW does it with new release

[wet sandal]

Had to get it on eBay too, since preorders were sold out in literal seconds

[wet sandal]

It doesn't have any different lore, just more art and a different design

[urban spire]

total war 40k looks

well that sure is a lot of cg of ultramarines fighting orks

[shadow plover]

the in engine footage was the most important bit

I wish to see more of the campaign map

[celest dome]

Ye, though don't think they'll repercute it on the historical games unless they do ww1 or later

[jade holly]

Does the CSM codex have a Daemon Engine focused detachment?

[abstract vector]

kinda?

I remember they have detachments for daemon engines

[celest dome]

The map part that we saw look like it'll be 1 map per planet with multiple Planets per sectors.
But the battle part sound quite dissimilar to the usual TW stuff

[wet sandal]

soulforged warpack

[urban spire]

i think it would be unfair to judge them by pre-alpha footage so i'm not mentioning the gameplay

[jade holly]

I’m guessing that or the Fellhammer Siege-Host are the Iron Warrior esque playstyles?

[urban spire]

also this lineup is kinda uninspired

[jade holly]

Knife Ears before Necrons?

That’s it, I’m waking all the tomb worlds

[misty vector]

No chaos either

[urban spire]

there seems to be no sauce

[abstract pilot]

A new engine was announced a week ago

[wet sandal]

no chaos is the weird one

[abstract pilot]

It'll be the first big DLC

[wet sandal]

idk, i don't play csm. but you can look on wahapedia for the actual rules

[shadow plover]

wouldn't be surprised if chaos was an unplayable faction before it gets the first expansion à la Total War Warhammer

[abstract pilot]

Implementing chaos is very different from the races that have been announced
