Yea

whole market saw gta 6 wants to charge 100-120 dollars and was like we can as well

rocky gale
#

and like really tried to enjoy it, Dragon Age is probably my favourite franchise and I'm a whore for Bioware. I even full played Andromeda twice

#

But Veilguard man

outer wave
#

Yeah I saw that wasn't very good

crystal forum
#

the newest game i played with my PC when it was new was helldivers and that game looks like shit

rocky gale
#

Yea they released a bad game and simultaneously released a bunch of behind the scenes stuff and concept art books from development basically revealing they originally planned to make the perfect Dragon Age game that everyone wanted, but then for some reason decided not to do that.

outer wave
#

Must've passed a couple director heads or creative teams

rocky gale
#

WE WERE SUPPOSED TO HAVE CALPERNIAAAAAA!!!!!

#

They replaced Calpernia with Neve. Neve was my favourite of the new characters, but learning this basically just ruined her for me.

#

I just look at her now and go "Damn she was supposed to be one of my favourite side characters from the franchise"

#

But instead she's Neve

#

Calpernia Supremacy!!!!!!!!!!!!

Heeeheheh...
Her teeth was funné to me.

we're too old for a draft now, if they need us it's over

Millenials are almost just as cooked tbh. Though jobs...

Also draft yeah

I doubt a draft will happen

daring creek
#

Probably not autistic but

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

Looking to get tested

#

I don't think I have a lot of the characteristics

#

Also question regarding ork lore

#

There needs to be like a hundred or a thousand or so for something to go their way right

#

Like say theres a single ork

#

And a car without an engine in it

#

If he tries to drive it. Will it move

young pecan
#

There's a thingy called a Waaghfield IIRC

#

The way it's best described is as a reality lubricant

#

You can't drive a boulder as if it was a car even in a strong Waaghfield

#

I'm not super knowledgeable but that's as much as I know

daring creek
#

Theyd need to drill wheels into it yeah?

young pecan
#

Probably a good bit more than that trollskull

daring creek
#

Lmfao

raven stone
#

GW has never really defined a proper Ork quanatity, but I do suspect it boils down to self-belief.
It's how Ork Meks could get their shit to work anyways.

young pecan
#

I forget if Waaghfield is from Weirdboyz (ork psykers) specifically and more orks boost it, or if it's just from a large amount of orks

storm jungle
#

Weirdboyz boost and manifest shit from it

#

all orks share the Waaaghfield

rocky gale
#

It's common among those people

opaque coyote
#

I mean BDSM isn't exactly like

#

Gay centric

rocky gale
#

They associate Slaanesh with being gay, because they see Slaanesh as being degenerate and also see being gay as degenerate

#

It's just mask off internalised homophobia

opaque coyote
#

The need for perfection

#

The fact that Fulgrim is canonically the only Primarch that actually married people?

#

And had multiple wives?

vagrant fox
#

yes slaanesh = sex

opaque coyote
opaque coyote
#

Being gay = slaanesh

daring creek
#

oh whats the discussion

opaque coyote
#

Trying to understand how Gay people = Slaanesh for some people

daring creek
#

Ah

#

well the queer community has a lot more freedom of sexuality and sexual expression

rocky gale
#

Artistry, the drugs. Pretty gay ngl

opaque coyote
vagrant fox
#

fine, slaanesh = beyond mildly freaky sex -> gay is degenerate weirdo freaky sex

opaque coyote
#

They might have deep seated problems that I won't ever tackle because I ain't a therapist

daring creek
#

which can mean more than one partner or regularly hooking up. Of course not done by only queer people, often done by as many straight people as well. It's also that queers are a perscuted minority

rocky gale
#

Like I said it's just internalised homophobia, it's the whole moral panic about gay people being degenerate, doing drugs etc etc etc

storm jungle
daring creek
#

Say, a guy sleeps with multiple girls. He's a badass right? then, a girl sleeps with multiple guys, she's a whore.

Double standard

#

and a lack of thinking

daring creek

neither is problematic It only feels unsanitary and unsafe to me.

SEX!!!

Hermaphrodite?

#

I didnt know Rem was one of us (a muslim)

arctic talon
opaque coyote
# arctic talon You’re correct

I think the Imperium generally considers any undiscovered human planets as part of the Imperium.

Like in a similar way to how North Korea says that they're they're all of Korea

#

That type of shit

storm jungle
arctic talon
#

So it’s full of plastic explosives and Benadryl

Was going from memory

storm jungle
arctic talon
daring creek
#

dilara when you make a mistake YOU FOOL, YOU UTTER BUFFOON

arctic talon
#

also the dreaded melee Rem

opaque coyote
#

But yeah in a weird legal sense type of thing, the Imperium considers any undiscovered human planet as Imperium.

Unless if said planet happens to uh

#

Not like murdering other beings

#

For zero reason

arctic talon
#

the imperium considers every planet in the galaxy there's

#

and all humans under their rule

opaque coyote
#

Or they're chaos worshipping

arctic talon
#

well they're under imperial law

#

and imperial law says kill them

storm jungle

^

#

its Manifest Destiny

#

lol

opaque coyote
#

Ah

storm jungle
#

because you know

#

they manifested this shit in their head

#

lol

opaque coyote
#

What about Heretics in general that specifically yell about how their territory is separate from the Imperium

#

Is it considered taken over by hostile forces

arctic talon
#

its considered a rebellion that will be put down

opaque coyote
#

Or is it just considered lies

#

Ah

storm jungle
#

They are literally nazis

#

they will conquer because resources and racism

their number 1 enemy are the supernatural KKK

what the fuck is this lore

arctic talon

The Friends of Humanity are the KKK and use supernatural abilties to kill the super natural

#

or just magical

storm jungle
#

Lmao

arctic talon
#

or literally anything that isn't human

storm jungle
#

okay so Deadlock is basically just Hellboy

#

that kinda makes it easier

arctic talon
#

Their other targets are like, serial killers and other shit trying to destroy the world/USA

#

oh also some Lich's

jade holly
#

Also the Djinn want Wyoming

arctic talon
#

but not all Lich's

jade holly
#

Idk why but they want it

arctic talon
#

They want it as land

#

they want a place to settle down in

storm jungle
#

why is everything about the US

#

lol

arctic talon
#

because Deadlock is set in the US

jade holly
#

I mean the game takes place in New York tmk

arctic talon
#

we have some Russia lore as well

storm jungle
#

awful

arctic talon
#

and uhhhh

#

some lore on europe due to the Baxter Society

#

aside from that mostly US and Ixia

#

Ixia being a nation thats on the plane of fire

And whatever the fuck Billy is

arctic talon
#

Billy is Billy

arctic talon
#

(there's like nothing)

I'll assume there will be more lore on the rest of the world eventually

#

considering the game is technically in Alpha still

Why's everyone on Deadlock

Can’t wait to wait another week for preorders and none of the CSM models are up for preorder

Okay so

#

The main animals for Chaos Gods are such

#

Dogs for Khorne

#

Birds for Tzeentch

#

Crabs for Slaanesh

#

What is Nurgle's preferred animal?

sacred ginkgo
#

Insects

rocky gale
#

Khorne is also Bulls

sacred ginkgo
#

Or frogs

opaque coyote
#

Cause well

#

Ooo spooky Eldritch magic

#

Usually squids and Octopus

hollow lantern
#

Birds tbh

arctic talon
#

Nurgle likes frogs/insects

#

Tzeentch is birds

hollow lantern
#

Slaanesh feels more sea lifey

opaque coyote
arctic talon
#

Slaanesh is sealifes/anteaters

hollow lantern
#

Specifically crabs

arctic talon
#

also like bulls

rocky gale
arctic talon
#

as well

opaque coyote

Yeah I feel like Tzeentch also goes for sea life on occasion but it's usually stuff like

Manta rays and Octopus

#

rocky gale
#

No

hollow lantern

arctic talon

do the chaos gods like, suffer at all

arctic talon
#

no

#

#

AoS yes

#

but not in 40k

I would care not where the blood flows, only that it does

opaque coyote
jade holly
#

You think Khorne straps GoPros to his Khornate Berserkers and watches the live feed

opaque coyote
#

Khorne is basically the King of all War

#

So despite his domain, he's generally just stuck on his chair

opaque coyote
#

He Doom scrolls every bit of violence happening in the universe with his phone

jade holly
#

How strong are chaos Sorcerors compared to Librarians? like in attuenment to the warp

storm jungle
#

there is no definite answer with magic and magic users in 40k

jade holly
#

Good ole it depends

storm jungle
#

40k has no hard-set rule on magic

opaque coyote
#

I feel like if all the Chaos Gods were roommates.

Slaanesh would be annoyed at Khorne not enjoying their choice of long form artistry movies. Instead saying that it's boring every half a second because he has zero patience.

While Tzeentch would be frustrated at Khorne not getting symbolism, stories, and plot twists

storm jungle
#

its literally "whatever the book says how strong this character is"

arctic talon
#

if you took a librarian and had them practice sorcerery they'd be stronger afterwards

#

but yeah that

#

lol

#

Sorcery is an augmentation of a persons existing psychic potential

#

Which is how you can have sorcerers who aren't psykers

storm jungle
#

yeah because like we got about as many exampls of Chaos Sorcerors overtaking Librarians as we got Librarians overtaking Chaos Sorcerers.

Its all make-believe WWE bullshit

I wish every cult army got the same level of support DG got ngl

#

With Tzeentch yelling about how the movie is so shallow compared to the book

#

Khorne is just miffed because he's seen it before but he's the least pissed off because violence

#

Tzeentch waits until about 30 minutes into the movie when everyone is invested, then spoils the ending

heady rivet
opaque coyote
#

But it's also like mid season

opaque coyote
#

Where they fight in the car but it's obviously kinda looks like sex but there's blood everywhere

#

Yeah I feel like that would happen

#

Hate sex type of thing

#

You think Chaos has healthy relationships?

rocky gale
# opaque coyote He does the same to a show

Had someone do that to me with GoT, literally had no idea of book spoilers at the time somehow avoided everything and then as I was leaving to go watch the episode someone just sent me a message saying ||"It's a shame they're all about to get killed at the Red Wedding"||

young pecan
#

Do you think if you took laxatives in Nurgle's name he'd like that at least a little

opaque coyote
#

Yeah I would punch em in the face

opaque coyote
#

But you could also invoke Slaanesh but for differentish reasons

young pecan
#

Thank you papa Nurgle for encouraging me to get out of bed today

opaque coyote
#

He's the manifestation of entropy

#

If you're referring to Slaanesh

arctic talon
opaque coyote
#

True, but you're also doom scrolling to give yourself dopamine

arctic talon
#

lol

#

Maggotkin get so much shit

#

compared to every other god faction

opaque coyote
#

In general, this is also why the Chaos Gods hate each other

#

Each action can be attributed to them in one way or another

#

Slaanesh fucking hates Khorne and vice versa because they fight for who gets what warrior

#

Because martial prowess is both equally Slaanesh and Khorne

#

So they fight like two kids having to share one toy

#

Also having the Chaos Gods be framed as College Roommates does sound funny

#

Their fights being framed as like Galaxy altering events

#

Slaanesh's birth killing trillions of Eldar in reality

Is just Slaanesh moving into the dorm

rocky gale
#

How about instead of roomates, they're a College Sorority.

opaque coyote
#

Aren't they usually like gender exclusive though?

#

Like Frats are for men usually

#

Sororities are for women

#

Because Khorne and Nurgle are firmly masculine presenting

rocky gale
#

They're just butch

opaque coyote
#

It's also funny to imagine the Dark King dropping off his baby cousin

#

The Emperor

#

All four of the Gods have to babysit this child

#

And all of the events of the Horus Heresy are depicted as the Gods trying to wrangle this troublemaker kid

#

Half of his toys got taken as punishment

hollow lantern
opaque coyote
#

The Emperor being stuck on the throne is depicted as

#

Like

#

"stand in the corner for 10 minutes" punishment

#

Also imagining a gag where everytime somebody tries to say his name

#

He just shouts

#

"THE EMPEROR!!!"

#

"Awww what's the little tyke's name?"

#

"Well he's named-"

#

"THE EMPEROR!!!"

#

"buddy I'm trying to tell them your nam-"

#

"THE EMPEROR!!!"

They’re just extremely high ranking comissars

arctic talon

Yes they do

paper haven
#

Commissars aren't a part of the military

#

But they do have ranks

arctic talon
#

Lord comissars are a thing

remote widget
#

No, there are informal ranks of "lord-commissar" but that just means they've been around a while

opaque coyote
#

Their own weird thing

arctic talon
#

Lord comissar is rank according to the 5e codex

opaque coyote
#

I remember it being the latter but I wanna make sure

arctic talon
#

If that’s changed then that’s my bad

#

But it was explicitly an assigned rank in the past

paper haven
#

They're their own thing. Political officers. Technically they answer to the ecclesiarchy

opaque coyote

They shoot particle beams

Oh my god

Basically to shut people up about how "lasers don't work like that"

Ok but does that mean they have recoil?

Lasgun recoil is the ultimate dependium

Is it a continuous beam or individual bolts?

Is

Yeah there's no answer

Though sometimes it’s a bolt

Melta is consistently a beam

Aside from in space marine 1/2 and boltgun

Crusaders btw aren’t under the ecclisarchy

They’re their own seperate organization of weirdos in the imperium

Melta guns as shotguns should completely invalidate the thing they are good at

opaque coyote

It’s a case of game design coming first

Even if it’s weird lore wise

It’s fine to serve as the games function

#

Doom Eternals archviles are fucking weak

opaque coyote
#

and also don't summon enemies every second

arctic talon
#

lol

#

They’re not nearly as accurate or high damaging

opaque coyote
#

Yeah I call that a case of actually trying to have decent game design vs Doom 2 Archviles

opaque coyote
#

Pitch shifted it down and mixed it with other sounds

#

and that's their death cry

arctic talon
opaque coyote
#

In DOOM Eternal there is explained that the Arch-Vile is feared because of it's ability to manipulate lower beings.

opaque coyote
#

"The Archvile is an evil healer. Anyone getting in his way is blasted with fire and disintegrated. This includes other demons. But, after he has wrought his destruction, he then goes around and reanimates all of the demons. Because of this interesting dual personality, I decided to give him a very evil laugh as an active sound. For his death sound, I recorded a young girl saying 'why,' pitch shifted it down and mixed it with other sounds. The Archvile just doesn't understand why anyone would want to kill him as he sees himself as only doing good for his fellow demon."

#

tbf the Archvile is basically the only Demon that does something that could be considered somewhat alturistic

#

This is also somewhat reflected in Doom Eternal, where the Arch-Vile most clearly shows visible fear in its expression during Glory Kills compared to other demons.

#

They are also the most intelligent

#

To summarize my sudden yapping.

Archviles might be the most interesting demons in Doom in terms of how they work.

#

I’m starting to get the idea of a Chaos aligned Votann League who made a deal with Vashtorr to save their Votann for one reason or another

#

Can Votann cores go mad?

shadow plover
#

All of them are kinda mad

#

or at least deteriorating

fervent geode
#

There's the mad core of emberg aegnir

#

But yeah all of them are slowly becoming more eccentric or deteriorating

fervent geode
#

If they were infected by a daemonovirus sure

#

But probably it would stop being a league very fast

#

As the votann creates abominations instead of kin

#

Not to mention the votann are already inherently somewhat warp resistant

#

The cloneskeins producing chaos kin would basically no longer be making acceptable kin

jade holly
#

I’m just wondering if chaos “Kin” can work in lore to begin with

#

like a twisted deal with Vashtorr to save their core but it results in new Kin being these corrupted Daemon Engine esque abominations fusing Kin and Ironkin

shadow plover
#

Think we'd need to know more about the Votann to make such deductions

#

We simply don't know enough

jade holly
#

I always thought they were uber pragmatic and if the core were at risk do anything and everything to save it

fervent geode
#

Vashtorr has corrupted Ironkin before

#

But to corrupt an entire core, whilst possible, opens up a whole can of worms

jade holly
fervent geode
#

Wdym?

#

I meant turning an entire ancestor core

#

From what i understand of kin they'd rather let it die than see it turned to the powers of the warp

#

As important as they are, no one wants a worse mad core coming into existence

Dilara is the resident redditor in this server methinks

I will interrogate later then because I am genuinely curious

#

Its like a weird whining echo chamber that is for some reason blaming the AH devs for trying to murder a player

#

Also seems high key chuddish ive read some very right wing shit in there. I wonder if its like a HorusGalaxy equivalent to HD2???

shadow plover

surreal nest
#

Ive never heard of how bad the main hd2 is tbh

limpid granite

Which is also why you see the term glazedivers

surreal nest
#

Is it criticism if you self isolate yourself onto an island and just yell though?

#

So its pretty much just a place where disgruntled hd2 fans go to talk about what they dont like about the game

shadow plover
#

Truly a healthy way of participate in a fandom to concentrate all the dislike and hate into one spot and let it feed into itself

I feel like if I was so upset about something that I joined a community to talk about it....I would just stop playing that game

He turned it around 360x2

It's still very very bland in it's core, it just has a lot of STUFF

But honestly and maybe its silly but the plot of the game ruined it for me

fervent geode
#

It has a plot????

surreal nest
#

Yeah and it killed my whimsy

fervent geode
#

Weird decision by hin

surreal nest
#

Its like "nothing is real this is all a corrupted ever expanding simulation"

fervent geode
#

Idk why a sandbox like that needs one

surreal nest
#

So it made my exploring feel worthless

opaque coyote
#

You're basically exploring a dying universe also

#

Which is also to explain certain limitations funnily enough

fervent geode
#

Ehh i still find it stupud

opaque coyote
#

It is

#

But hey, it's still fucking massive

fervent geode
#

As softtoast said makes shit feel worthless

#

Nothing real

surreal nest

Its hard to be immersed and want to explore when the game says this is a simulation nothing is real yeah

opaque coyote

opaque coyote

Jokes aside I don't feel like it's pointless because like.

Life ends when we die. We dunno what happens after we die. For all we know we could become spaghetti.

But that doesn't mean nothing matters.

Also cause it's still fun

Also true

That's also the explanation for multiplayer

NMS plotting also includes a lame loop mechanic like every game now

opaque coyote
#

The "loop" itself is failing to the point where it sorta

#

Blends together

surreal nest
#

Deserved

opaque coyote
#

Because the computer running it is also dying slowly

#

Also means that you can fuck around in other universes as a result
