I liked how they chose the best version for the TitanThey grabbed all the best parts of different concept arts and now it has the most guns
>>155262144Nipple guns, shoulder guns, crotch guns and biggest arm guns
>>155262144The shoulder turrets are cool.
>>155262144Considering how big Episode 5 was, will Episode 6 be smaller scale? Waiting 9 months between episodes is brutal.
>>155262144>4M views in one dayNot bad. Hope the extra work they put into this one pays off.
>With their many eyes, they shall weep>with their many limbs, they will crawl>in their many tongues, they shall plead>in their many forms, they will fall>So Sayeth Space King
>>155262144I just love how fucking massive that thing is. It's creation was both morbidly awesome and gut bustingly hilarious.
>>155262144They crushed an entire squad. What are the logistics of inserting them into a little boy's scrotum?
>>155262807Painful
>>155262144Did they not make a full design for those giant Spacehogs? We only see them from the back in the episode.
This did make me kek audibly
>>155263092>you have just realized that psycho warriors don't have pubes
>>155263092I just fucking got the visual gag, fuck these guys are good
>>155263107It makes sense that they'd have the unblemished hairless bodies of young boys considering how they're made.
>>155262144I liked how they had the crowds of banner holders who got thrown into the air when they brought down the walls.
>>155263311there was this theory that the longer a psycho warrior goes without dying, the stronger they become, and it stacks.That's why Chip had actual facial hair and was such an unkillable badass.And maybe why the "fur" on the archpriest is like a sign of status
>>155263092I’m not that much of an expert on 40K, so I don’t get what group the guy is parodying or if he’s an altered human or just a big cyborg?
>>155263393I'm guessing the Adeptus Mechanicus heavily leaning on the Biologus side.
>>155263385Funny to think how few Psycho warriors make it to puberty.
>>155263393Adeptus Biologis traditionally wear white robes.
>>155263617Is that supposed to be a tau or an eldar girl?
>>155263643Genderbent Psycho Warrior as envisioned by a horny Korean
>>155263617>>155263663NO. GIRLS. ALLOWED!!!!!!!
Thought Captain losing his arm was gonna be a permanent thing but they fixed him up in the next scene
>3 million stretch goalsWE'RE SHOOTING FOR THE MOON! WE'LL HIT 5 MILLION BEFORE THE END DATE!
>they actually went for it7k is like my annual college tuition. What the hell are these people doing?
>>155263617>>155263663This is not the kinda blood play I was looking for Anon
>>155264158Back in the day Homestuck had $10,000 whale tiers and people bought it, then Undertale did it too and got bids. It basically just doesn't hurt to have a giga-whale backer tier on your project because there's a small but real population that can sling 10 grand at something they like, esp. if they think it'll be a clout investment.
>>155264158I'd bet like, a Little Caesars' hot and ready that those backer warriors are gonna show up and die like absolute fuckin bitches
>>155264251Makes sense. The Homestuck backer trolls were annihilated in on page.
>>155264261And one of the undertale backer's had their fetish OC hidden as far as they could code it
>>155263617>>155263663>Females>Hrrrgh.png
>>155264277Considering Muffet, the fatfur deserved it. He could have just made a new character but wanted to buy clout and was denied it.
>>155264287Oh yeah, but it is funny as shit. At least people have learned how to deal with this sort of shit, unlike that Kaiju fighting game that died cause the Whale insisted on their fetish character dominating everything
>>155264158This is an age of wage gaps. You got overnight millionaires and spoiled priceline that can sling 10k around in a day like pocket change. Get one interested and you're set.I'm pretty sure DOTA 2 is being supported singlehandedly by a Saudi Prince who plays it religiously
>>155264251They're gonna be the blue alien's knock offs and they're gonna get killed by fucking Bryce and teabagged.
>>155264316I wonder if it's the same one who commissioned all that astrid porn.
>>155264158kickstarter is not a bank draft quite a few will probably punk out
>>155264456Don't you pay upfront then get refunded later if the project fails?
>>155263663>>155263617Cute!
>>155264483You can drop out at any point before it completes, though i doubt many will unless shit happens in the next month, buying something expensive and then punking out is the sort of thing i'd expect to only see in projects likely to fail in order to induce FOMO
>>155263617>>155263663Makes sense somehowThe coagulators were already xeno loving heretics just because they were blood related, accepting women into their ranks is just the obvious next step.(Something something period joke)
What are the odds Tom and Don are the ones funding the 7k tier to generate hype and to use it as tax write off?
>>155264579What's actually happening is that the full game is 400 dollars and so thousands of people are paying that much and bumping the total number up.
>>155264158Tom and don are modern day Michelangelos.Is someone wants to be a modern day Medici it should be encouraged
>>155264579The total funding from the 15 7777$ packs is only 116k, which is a lot in absolute terms but less than 5% of funding now.
>>155263393Tech Priests, specifically the class of techpriests responsible for managing, creating, and distributing the gene-seed for Space Marine chapters
>>155263617>>155263663Artist name? Also, I guess they don't want boys in their team?
>>155264146>>155264158The Netflix exec who offered them a deal and got rejected must be biting his nails
>>155265192Netflix saw them as just indie animators when their true ambition was to make their own version of Space Crusade (aka the original 40k board game).
just watched this overrated, overhyped cartoon>penis jokes>faggotryof course such thread would be popular on /co/

Chestnut enjoys fondling ballsHatemonger doesn't like titsIs Bryce the only straight guy in the squad?
>>155264316There's a lot of Mexicans buying skins too, but one giga whale can feed an entire gaming ecosystem all on its own.
>>155265273HE JUST HATES ALIENS
>>155264158It's not meant for you, it's for some ultra rich whales to dump their money at. Surely some rich oil pince would like to fund this show further while getting something funny in return
>>155264310>Kaiju fighting game that diedWhich was this one? I had heard of a few kaiju fighting games that it's hard to tell which this could be.
>>155264158Have they actually gotten a game out yet?
>>155262807>What are the logistics of inserting them into a little boy's scrotum?Uh... Kids are made of rubber...?
>>155264158>7k7.777
>>155265762Same I remember one that got fucked because one of the lead designers died mid development but I don't recall one ruined by backer autism.I think only hollow knight had good backer characters, but for most games they are just lame.
>2nd on the popular tab>5.5k% fundedKingbros how are we feeling?
>>155262445>the best part is when they just drop the satire completely and faithfully (no pun intended) emulate the source materialThat does say something, doesn't it?
>>155263617>>155263663Oh my god, that blood...
>>155264236HS got two whales (it also had a $100k tier but no one went for that) Vs SK's 13.
>>155265212Stfu, faggot
>>155264052He probably got outfitted with a bionic for the ceremony Or just up and killed himself and had his globulous inserted on a new boy, which is more likely
What's for 2.5 and 3mil rewards?
>>155264344There’s a special place in hell for that weirdo.
>>155266759I doubt they even know.
HOLY SHIT KINGSMAS EPISODE FUCKING DESTROYED BY WAR WORLD
>>155265239I'm surprised their rule 63 Space King art doesn't have comments saying "NO GIRLS ALLOWED"
>>155266829Because they're Korean and they wouldn’t understand it
>>155266853How did they do watch it to begin with then?
>>155266877Some people watch without understanding the language and understand through character expressionsThat or they just read Korean subtitles
>>155263092>>155263132
>>155263385interesting theory, it would make a kind of sense too, as they would 'settle' into their bodies better after a decade or so.It hasn't really been demonstrated as such however. Also Chip had giga-plot armor, he survived because Tom and Dom wanted him to, not because he was old. Punching a hole through the middle of his chest, including a football sized chunk of spine, is an instant death for everyone who isn't a primarch in 40k.
>155265212name a better western cartoon for straight men then, tranny. It has to have been made in the last ~12 years too, lmao.
>>155265273Yes, but its a monkey's paw cause he is into fucking aliens.
>>155266816what was wrong with the Kingsmas episode? i enjoyed it.
>>155267130Its kind of forgettable in my opinion, the reveals are not that interesting, its almost entirely focused on a side character who doesn't show up until later, plus its a christmas special which also makes me snooze.
>>155263385Also why the pussy of the main group has the higest on screen kill count and by a lot.
>>155264158That's Warhammer player money baybeee! But for real tho, more than the YouTube show I hope that the board game takes off and maybe they even make a videogame or two. Just to make GamesWorkshop piss their pants in fear of finally having some competition.
>>155265273Captain also likes titties.
>>155267355>space king 4p beat em up>after every boss you fight your squad for the relic>playable terry replaces all dialogue with music and laughterDO IT Tn'DTAKE ALL THE GW PIG MONEY
>>155264158Oh what the fuck you gotta be kidding me
>>155263868Captain question is keeping alien girls for experiments and stuff allowed?
>>155267770"On their many limbs" would've been better tbdesu.
I think my favorite moments is when the gang is all being chummy with each other. Puts a smile on my face
>>155267827The only experimentation needed is how many blows they need to be killed, with practical experimentation only
>>155267674God I fucking hope so. I'd love to see the pressure put on them and how much shit they could pack into a 4 player beat em up.
>>155267909>>155267674>Every playable character gets a unique special attack/gimmick>Hatemonger can buff the team with a battle prayer, Chestnut can heal/resurrect allies, etc>Terry's gimmick is he has friendly fire always on because he's retarded
>>155266477This is true but Homestuck's kickstarter was when the concept was new (and the 10k tier is something like 25k in today's money)
>>155267844it's supposed to follow one patternwith their, shallwith their, willin their, shallin their, will
>>155268085That's fair. Hatemonger is all about patterns, afterall.
>>155267674>>155267909fuck it.we also need a Rogue Trader equivalent then, really bully GW for all their lunch money>Play as a missfit who got pardoned due to heroic deeds>Not exactly able to return to your chapter since they still dom't wanna crusade with you, but you are free to come and go as you please.>Explore new planets, slay dangerous xenos and get recruits for your crew>Can go from loyalist chapters to half-heretic ones, to other missfits or even some xenos(you put a poorly made disguise on them)
>>155268182I don't think that Space King is that fleshed out yet but a Totalwar game would put the fear of god in them. And it would not be that hard to pull since Sega and GW have done everything in their power to fuck modders and players in the ass so I bet there's gotta be a lot of willing hands if they decide to do it.
>>155267762>His character is a heretic that gets unceremoniously BLAM'd immediately
Best episode yet.
>>155268142Recognising them, you could say.
>>155263385>>155267100I think they're just parodying how helmetless characters in 40k inexplicably tend to have plot armor than anything else.
>>155262807>logisticsthat's nerd shit
>>155264158Some schizo girl is going to ask to be a gay psycho warrior that wants to fuck hatemonger
I would a female psycho warrior.Sue me. I see big titties and my globules take over.
>>155264236Oh hey, thanks for reminding me of Homestuck.
>>155262445>Hatemonger is called lame for acting all religious and shit>He finally gets to>It's the hypest moment of the show
>>155269767>Hatemonger is called lame for acting all religious and shitHe gets called lame when he acts all petty about following rules. He didn't even think they should get green lasers. Nobody dunks on him for getting stoked about Space King.
>>155269827Captain dunked on him at the start of this episode saying he shouldn't get the relics cos he'd act all weird about it
>>155269842I mean he would absolutely act weird about it.
>>155267899Why does hatemonger has visited shit like the milf video tags at sankaku?
I do like that Space King ends up being both a celebration and a mockery of Warhammer (we're following literal psychopathic manchildren in this after all)That said, I worry sometimes about the folks that ignore the mocking aspect and grab it to endorse their shitty beliefs.
>>155270086>That said, I'm gayNobody asked.
>>155270086Is this a new copypasta or something, ive seen numerous people say the same shit before
>>155269864Better than what Captain did with most of them.
>>155270086
>>155270086Psycho Warriors are manchildren because Space Marines are child soldiers, you dumb fucking lorelet.
>>155270393a dumb fuck said this on twitter as a way to bait people and it apparently worked.
>>155270086>>>r/Grimdank
>>155270393I see this exact sentiment shared unironically every time a new episode comes out.And the worst part is: I can actually see how your average leftoid's takeaway from all this would be that SK "is actually making fun of choods", but they're so direction-brained that it's basically impossible to convince them it's not really an attack on anyone.
>>155270086In order to effectively satirise something, you have to like it at least a little.That's why most hollywood spoofs these days are so awful
>>155270393Yep, i've seen it too
the fact that maximus has globules means that it can be revived
>>155270843But what's gonna suck those globules out
>>155270863some giant gadget, it's clear they have the tech
>>155270843My headcanon is that it's too big to fit on a ship, so they have to kill it and take the globules every time they move it to a new planet, whether it fell in battle or not.This also means they can gleefully use it as a suicide weapon, which is totally sweet.
>>155270863>>155270875A titan sized Chestnut of course
>>155270717they are so mindbroken that they can't understand that a parody doesn't necessarily has to be an attack.
My headcanon is that certain psycho warriors like Chip are genuine adults in that they actually grew into psycho warriors rather than globule trasnplant
>>155270086Tom and Don are fellow chuds, it's unironic.If you disagree with any of the messaging, go suck a dick.
y'know, if space king is a parody of 40k, what would a parody of fantasy be like? discworld on crack?
>>155271128Ravandils Quest, duh.
>>155271128>>155271175 This
>>155271128Incomprehensible to normal people because it's all in German.
>man, Dethklok are absolute fucking retards, the creators of Metalocalypse must fucking hate death metal and their fans! what a poignant critique of toxic metalhead culture!>woah, Doc Hammer absolutely despises Johnny Quest and Silver Age comics, just look at these spergs in silly costumes!This is what "Space King is actually making fun of chuds/warhammer fans" discourse reads to me as in a nutshell.
>>155271628You make it sound like this is gonna have continuity and an ongoing plot the longer it goes on for
>>155271658>you make it soundNo, that's actually what you personally hear because it's not even remotely the point I was making.
So at this point it is pretty clear that the Space Hogs are in fact the good guys of the setting.>Psycho Warriors invade their home planet>destroy all life that could feed the Space Hogs>the Space Hogs are forced to resort to cannibalism in order to survive
>>155271628>Dude, the people that made The Boondocks must hate niggers.now that you mention it anon, it really sounds like that.Leftists truly have forgotten what is like to laugh about yourself.
>>155271685I mean you did give examples of those things even if you unintentionally didn't mean to
>>155271834>Holy mental gimnastics batman!
>>155271793I'm pretty sure they can eat other thingsThey just like the taste of humans moreAlso is it really cannibalism if it's a different species?Pretty sure the hogs didn't use to be humans
>>155271848Look man, you're the one who said what you said without thinkingNo need to get mad about it We're supposed to have fun here aren't we?
>>155271793>>Psycho Warriors invade their home planetKickass!>>destroy all life that could feed the Space HogsBased!>>the Space Hogs are forced to resort to cannibalism in order to surviveHoly shit we got them doing our work for us! Space King is so smart you guys, I want to worship him EVEN HARDER.
>>155271813I was actually meaning to include The Boondocks as well, but somehow forgot about it as I was writing the post.I think this ultimately stems from internet leftists using fiction as cudgel against their political opponents, see "Sonic would hate you" type shit.
>>155264158You really underestimate WH40kfags, a good chunk of these guys work on high income jobs and can afford to throw money into their Hobbie like this
>>155270954As a psycho warrior once he runs out of things to kill he will just die of boredom
What if Space King created the Space Hogs to ensure that Psycho Warriors never get bored?
I really like the SaintHe's such a champ
>>155272166>Living skeleton of a saint acting like a turret and a shield.Wonder if we would also get some dreadnaught equivalent in the future that is just one of those skeletons shoved in a Psycho armor
I wanna see the Space Hogs fight the Flim Flaps.
>>155272353blap blaps?
>>155272353I think you're describing a buffet.
>3 Million unlocks YukonMONEEHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!
>>155271960Lots of hobbies get those "Doctor/IT/Software engineer making mad bank who doesn't have much to spend on beyond commissions or vanity projects".God bless em.>>155271628Satire the past decade or two has gotten hijacked by people using it to mock something they hate instead of lampoon something they like. I love it for how stupid and terry retarded it'll be but also how you actually get drawn in and excited to see how the story goes.>>155272166The guest characters haven't always been a knock out of the park (Charlie the psycho warrior was underwhelming) but saint, chip and retard terry are GOAT.I did not fucking expect this image when I googled retard terry. Laughed for a good 10 seconds.
>>155272361Yes.
>>155271813That’s kinda true
>>155273118>Satire the past decade or two has gotten hijacked by people using it to mock something they hate instead of lampoon something they likeThe problem with a lot of modern "satire" is it isn't actually satire.Starship Troopers is an exact example of this. The director 'intended' to make a movie satirizing the book, and the way he did this is he just had tongue in cheek propaganda and nazi uniforms. That's "satire" as far as certain types of people are concerned, just say that the other side are nazis and that's good enough. But it isn't. You're not actually critiquing anything, you're not saying why nazis or propaganda is bad.Compare Helldivers, which is very similar to the Starship Troopers film with one major difference: Super Earth is constantly fucking up and constantly causing its own problems. There is no implicit claim that the Federation manufactured the war with the Bugs, Super Earth actually did abuse the Cyborgs, farm the Terminids, and wage a false casus belli against the Illuminate. The criticism against European style "managed democracy" is very explicit, and that's what makes it actual satire.For Space King, the satire is under several layers of irony and the true message is "yes, it is bad for genocidal empires to exist in real life, but in fiction it is extremely awesome and stupid to claim it isn't awesome".
>>155271793Is it their homeplanet? For all we know, they met the Psycho Warriors there after they picked it clean.
>>155273690>>155273118I thought that Space King was very straight forward with it's message. "Aren't you tured that all the media for men and boys is fucking lame? Here's everything that it's missing from it!"Hence why all the merch is all the cool shit you and your friends used to ask your parents to buy you.>Action packed cartoons >Cereal boxes filled with good stuff>Lunch boxes>Board games>High end action figures (this is the next thing mark my words)
>>155273784For all we know they are another race of galactic conquerors fighting for a piece of the pieJust the same way the Blap-Blaps appear to be "weak" and "defenseless" but their numbers are staggering and their territory constantly is attempting to expand.
>>155262144 During the final part of the episode I really wanted that little kid to say I'm a girl you idiot at the exact moment it was too late.
>>155273918Draw it anon
>>155273918I wonder how Psycho Warriors would react to hermaphrodites
>>155264483Nope, collection doesn't happen until the end and the only reason you can't back out is if (You) ditching would go below the funding goal
>>155273830>next thingI'm pretty sure the 3mil reward the kickstarter just passed is the leader in his box.
>>155274162I hope we get another discount as a prize.
>>155267130>what was wrong with the Kingsmas episode?It was definitely the weakest, with large parts of the episode focussing on lame and gay side characters.
>>155274014They'll just cut out the girl parts
>>155271025>My headcanon is that certain psycho warriors like Chip are genuine adults in that they actually grew into psycho warriors rather than globule trasnplantWhat would happen if you tried to implant globules into an adult man?
>>155273918This boy was weirdly very cute

>>155274543>
>>155274610>Yukonhe's the 3 million goal
>>155271628Is funny that Tom and Dom have a whole episode in their talk videos about how much they hate these types of writing ideas>What if X thing was making fun of you>What if hatemonger was a girl>What if space king was a girl>What if hatemonger was an alien>What if Space king was a lame guyThey hate how much everything needs to have a "subvert expectations" plot
>>155273118>Satire the past decade or two has gotten hijacked by people using it to mock something they hate instead of lampoon something they like.very true, but frankly, thanks to americans, satire remains one of the most consistently misunderstood forms of humor, where the viewer regularly misinterprets what they're seeing/reading.
>>155273690>The criticism against European style "managed democracy" is very explicit, and that's what makes it actual satire.its frankly genius in that context. Especially considering how right now the scum ruling the EU are practically frothing at the mouth in desperation at their need to coup Russia and kill Putin.
>>155275477Yes the britbongs drastically decreasing the child mortality rates in the “natives” is probably going to destroy the world.
>>155274556There he is, Commissar.That's the heretic right there.
>>155275580It'd only be heresy if it was girlSpace king will make fun of you for being gay but doesn't say it's heresy to be gay
>>155272166I hope the Saint remains part of the squad.
>>155275595High Command and the Saint chillin' together.
>>155275595He's not gonna appear again until an "end of season" episode when he is part of the reinforcements in the final battle
>>155270086they will totally ignore the mockery if they want, that is a tale as old as time.
>>155272209Dreadnaughts are just nugget psycho warriors with wheels,bumper and a gigantic v8 engine bolted to their backsIts like a first aid kit till you get a medic to put your balls in new host
>>155271793DamnLeftism really is about who can cry harder about having a boo boo
>>155275983Cope
>>155274213I really do hope they make a half recruit pack half psycho warrior pack>base game + terry campaing + lore book. For 149 bucksBecause it sucks that if you want more than one addon, you're pretty much getting scammed since the psycho warrior pack is much better in terms of value.
>>155267674>Space King 4 coop wave shooter>4 classes to choose from>Missfit: Big, bulky, the stronger and slower of the crew since his armor has been stripped from the valuable components and is just a metal suit now>Saint: A relic shield who was given mechanical legs and other augmentations like a full body servo-skull, fastest, kill fast and die faster.>Priest: Support and damage dealer, pristine white robes stained with blood, main power is to perform acts that are part heresy, part pure Space King power part biological abominations.>Fodder: One of those human guys who actually stopped being fearful and completely believed on space king, Crappy riffle and holy rocks that actually work due to pure blind fate, pretty much a Mini-Chip.
>>155273918The he-man bobcut isn't doing any favors
>>155276288Wrong
>>155276288>Onions un Trolazoo!
>>155273918So was there a scene of globulous maximus going in the boi?
>>155276311No. I checked the patreon version.
>>155276332Damn, would've been a laugh riot to see.
>>155272209nah, a dreadnought is a psycho warrior who lived through having his globules blown offhe can never be revived so he's in a state of undeath, where his existence is over but still he rages on in the name of Space King
>3 million in three daysEveryone point and laugh at GW.
>>155276444How is something that's only going to increase the amount of people who know about 40k btfoing gw exactly? You guys are retarded
>>155276510This is based off of Space Crusade, which is an out of print board game.
>>155273690You're ignoring a lot of context that's present in the film like how its propaganda and the federations ideology is used to brainwash people into being killing machinea like the very bugs they fight but alas I'm not at work so I can't fully respond. Rest assured though starship troopers is far better satire than people on the Internet give it credit for.
>>155262807>logisticsby no logic that can be shown onscreen
>>155276533Starship Troopers is such a bad satire that the Japanese made a bunch of sequel movies that completely ignored any "satirical" elements and just played it completely straight.
>>155273918It's comments like these where I appreciate Tom and Don understanding "it's funnier to play it straight". Killing the lore payoff for a stale joke built on something they logically wouldn't do because they had to put him in a robe with no underwear
>>155276544Are you talking about the ova that was made before the movie or the animated movie where the president tries to blow up Mars for approval? Either way you're a retard and don't know what you're talking about like most people who have "hot takes" about starship troopers.
>>155276533>I'm not at work so I can't fully bore you all with my huge wall of text about why you are wrong.Good.
>>155276533no it isn't, its a failed satire in every way to the point of not even understanding of what it intended to try and satireWhen you're making something that's intended to make money first and foremost it is no longer satire and is now just product.
>>155276578No
>>155276533The satire is so bad it justifies the very thing it's trying to mock.
>>155269827>He didn't even think they should get green lasers.And in the end he was completely justified.
>>155265814>Double FineWhy is anyone funding them again when they for 3.3 million for a game and half-assed it?
>>155267130Parodying the Rankin-Bass Rudolph special was just not funny enough for a 20 minute cartoon. Also episode 4 is awfully early to be side-lining the main cast for a bunnch of one-shots.
>>155276740I would have been a lot more forgiving of 4 if it introduced the Misfits as the Chaos equivalent (or at least the Fallen equivalent) and made Psykers more of a mainstay going forward.But instead it is just filler.
>>155276626Do you actually have any reasons for why the movie is failed satire or did you just want to use that buzzword
guys I think High Command should be called "Legion Head" instead.
>>155276740Dear lord they pulled a Star Wars holyday special
>>155270086>That said, I worry sometimes about the folks that ignore the mocking aspect and grab it to endorse their shitty beliefs.Congratulations, you've made a statement indistinguishable from every critic of WH40K and bug-lover for the last decade.
>>155276756We don't know, it would be pretty sweet if we get more psykers the next episode.
>>155276775I think Rudolph was a one off mutant.
>>155276757Because the humans are correct to fight the bugs.
>>155276787They're certainly in the right for defending themselves but by the end of the film both sides are after mutual annihilation even when they know the bugs aren't dumb animals that can't be communicated with. They've become mirrors of each other. Mind you the whole war started because of Mormon colonists in bugland.
>>155276814They know they're not dumb animals when they shoot an asteroid at a city on earth.
>>155276814>if you kill your enemies they win
>>155276814>if you kill them, you'll be just like them!
>>155276814The bugs are collectivists on a biological level. When they attack the humans it means they are making war on humans as a species. The earth government didn't give a shit the Mormons got massacred but the bugs attacked earth anyway.
>>155276855In fact, the Federation explicitly forbid any colonization in the Bug's territory. Humanity did its best to live and let live, and got attacked anyway.
>>155276782Shame, they could do so much more with sanctioned psykers psycho warriors, maybe even parody a Halloween special next time.
>>155276814>even when they know the bugs aren't dumb animals that can0t be communicated with.At this point what good would talking even do? Like anon said>>155276855, the war started and both factions would not stop till the other becomes inhert piles biomass. How would you even try to negotiate a ceasefire let alone peace at this point?
>>155276663>And in the end he was completely justified.While he was justified, he was also equally retarded for teaching the indestructible AI hivemind "hate". While the idea sounded sweet on paper, it turned out to be a fucking stupid idea in the end.
>>155276832No we won't. They'll be dead. They won't be anything.
>>155276757Slapping greatcoats on characters isn't satirePropaganda newscasts are trying to have their cake and eat it too, refusing to commit to being in-universe or the whole movie itself being one while still showing shit that no propaganda reel would ever fucking showThe film shows an orderly society responding to an existential threat (because the director was too fucking stupid to make it a false flag and outright says it isn't) that they weren't prepared to fight but quickly adapting past their initial failures and turning the war around. At no point does it actually lampoon what's supposed to be wrong with this society it just goes>haha look at these people acting all patriotic aren't they fucking insane!and that's itThe movie fails as satire from the outset because Verhoeven added tits and ultraviolence purely to sell movie tickets, not to actually communicate a message, which then muddles any possible message in a melange of consumerism. It lacks all purity of focus, not least of which because they didn't even understand what they were parodying, he read one chapter of the book describing ancient greek democracy, where you only get a vote by actually serving your nation, then declared that fascism.
>>155276814If bugs are too irrational and violent to deal with petty territory disputes like an adult species then they have no place in our galaxy. Mind you, we're not speaking on behalf of just humans here, but rather every other sentient and non-sentient species in the galaxy. What if there's friendly aliens out there that get wiped out because they happened to be too close to the ever expanding bug empire?
>>155265212you left out the child abuseso really I don't know where your priorities lay to make any such statements
>>155276814>the dumb animals managed to launch an asteroid across 50000 light years to bullseye a population center (THIS IS CANON, THERE WAS NO FALSEFLAG, NOT HINTED IN THE MOVIE AND OUTRIGHT STATED TO NOT BE SUCH IN DIRECTOR'S COMMENTARY)They're biologically collectivist, every single bug is willing to die to the very last to serve the will of their queen and their queen has decided to make war against mankindBrainbugs show they very much are not "dumb animals" and are explicitly led by very intelligent creatures who are willing to brutally murder every single human they come across. There can be nothing short of extinction or the threat of it to stop them.
I did miss that old 40K has some stupid crazy shiit. Imperial Fists Pain Glove is actually a bdsm electric latex clothing, branding the newly marine buttocks with the imperial fist insignia.
>>155277042Wait really?I was always under the impression the federation made it up and threw the rock themselvesGod, if that's true then they do really suck at making satire.
>>155276766the only winner in all this is Games Workshop regardlessit's free real estate
>>155277065The whole "the Federation sent the asteroid as a psyop" is a common theory, even the director claims it is true, but if you actually watch the film what happens is the asteroid nearly hits a Federation ship in deep space and that's the first clue of the Bug's sneak attack.There is ZERO evidence the Federation were behind it, and every bit of evidence that they were not.
>>155277065Nope, the other guy on the commentary track even went>wouldn't it be cool if, like, it was the Federation who blew up buenos aires to justify the warto which verhoeven goes>yeah but they didn'tWouldn't even be hard, just add a dude with a geiger counter or some shit in the background of a newscast going>this isn't space rock, its fissile materialthen get tackled by spooksBut nope, Verhoeven actually had the bugs play celestial billiards, launching a meteorite across tens of thousands of light-years, because he doesn't understand that would take a million years
>>155264158Did you not make 700k off easy crypto bets?
>>155277087Or alternatively, have a shot with a piece of the asteroid having rockets attached.
>>155277083How do the bugs send rocks across the galaxy (like 50k lightyears) in a reasonable time frame for an attack? That always bothered me.Do they have some kind of FTL tech? And if they did, wouldn't a FTL rock completely and utterly obliterate Earth when hit instead of just Buenos Aires?
Bugs are wholesome chungus and humans are evil. End of discussion.
>>155277118>Book says the bugs did it>Movie says the bugs did it>Director says the bugs did it>"ERMMM BUT DID YOU ASK REDDIT?"
>>155277118they have some method of traveling between planets to start new hives so they have something, but probably not whatever it was that launched the meteor just because the movie was too dumb to think about thatIts genuinely not smart enough to be satire.
I can't believe the science fiction movie about giant space bugs isn't realistic
>>155277165In the book, the Bugs actually have ships. In the movie universe, they shoot spores attached to asteroids.
>>155277083>>155277087Fuck, it could've even been solved by a small scene of said spaceship>"Captain the asteroid is going right into earth's trajectory">Everyone gets ready to fire>Guy about to press the button>Captain stops him>Whole crew goes silent as tense music plays.
>>155277142Nigga was just asking a question about the movie's lore. The only Indian here is you.
>>155277042They were fine with leaving humans alone until their territory was invaded
>>155277172well yeah, because the book the bugs are just people but biologically designed to be a functional collectivist society, one single breeder for the entire civilization means each life is genuinely in their best interest to sacrifice for the good of the commonality since that is how they help their own bloodBut the books are also about the contrast of the systems, questioning how good the system generally is when some dumbfuck space mormons that nobody actually cared about instigated the war, and FUCKING SKINNIES playing both sides.
>>155277287Maybe the bugs should do a little introspection and stop being evil retards.
>>155277284And their sovereign land was violated by an extremist splinter group that the Federation did not claim. After killing off the space mormons they should've stopped but either they cannot into the idea of an individualist society and thus declared all of humanity was a threat because they think all of mankind is one group or they thought all of mankind will continue to be a threat because they won't stop those kinds of splinter groups.Either way, they launched a preemptive attack on a completely unrelated party which dragged the entire federation into war footing because millions of dead civvies and cits, the former of whom want protection and the latter of whom demand retribution and restored honor
>>155266759I think on stream today yukon was revealed as one of them.
>>155277065I headcanon it in the film because it makes the movies parody better but the director who hated the book and didn't read it just copy and pasted the plot point for some reason despite cutting tons from the story like the skinnies
Made for **holding me in his arms**
>>155277372Cool
>>155277394> Gachimuchi Butters
>>155277394He looks kinda like reccome
>>155277458That reference is old enough to post here.Makes me wonder if the newest faces here even know of it.
>>155277330Then the federation should've done the Vulcan mind meld as soon as they found out about the brain bugs to tell them to fuck off instead of human wave attacks that got almost everyone killed
>>155277372The announcement short for terry confirms it. Tho it seems to be set for 3k instead of 2,5k weird.https://www.youtube.com/shorts/mz2X4RuS-v8
>>155277118Yes no shit they have FTL you dumb retarded nigger chud. The whole raison d'etre of the conflict was that humanity and the bugs were the only races that were competing for the same living area.
>>155277844>Humanity and the bugs were the only competent enough races.Based
>>155276533Thing is, Verhoeven didn't read the book but the writer and a few of the actors did, so it kinda makes it weird to make a satire/parody of a work that you barely know about. Especially of a novel that is Dune tier in terms of how much fiction it would inspire in the future.>>155276544Not true. The sequels also had the satirical element to them. >>155276757Not him but it fails because without reading the rest of the book, Verhoeven fails to see other elements of the book that make it stand out that he could have included in the parody (like the existence of the Skinnies). Also, one of the bugs (the Tanker Bug) is literally based off a nazi tank that shoots fire.
>>155277124>trusting AI with anything instead of reading the book, watching the films, watching the shows, watching the OVA, and playing the gamesPathetic.>>155277118>Do they have some kind of FTL tech?They did in the book and the OVA.
>>155278025He was being sarcastic anon you dumb fuck
>>155278006The live action sequels are separate from the Japanese produced CGI sequels, but it is all the same continuity.
xoomers outthis is a zoomer thread
>>155278082Movies 3 and 5 still have the involvement of Edward Neumeier and Casper Van Dien.
>>155278006To be fair, a whole lot of people inspired by Dune haven't even read it, they just know it from osmosis.
>>155278380I remember someone joking that there are no Dune fans, they were fans of works from writers that loved dune.It's good to see it's getting some more recognition now.
>>155267827WHY WOULD YOU WANT TO FUCK ONE OF THOSE THINGS
>>155276922>Spore reference in a Space King ThreasHuh.
>>155273836>tfw Space King is actually slightly more realistic than 40k because all the galaxy-spanning factions are running around with population numbers in the quadrillions at minimum
>>155273690>There is no implicit claim that the Federation manufactured the war with the BugsHOW do people miss the giant false flag at the beginning of the story? They blame bugs halfway across the galaxy for a meteor. Last I checked, meteors do not have FTL travel capabilities. They would have had to send that shit before human life EXISTED... Its a joke about the nature of propaganda and how desperately their society needs an enemy to fight to keep rolling because of how it's structured. >"I'm from Buenos Aires, and I say kill 'em all!"
>>155278611You didn't watch the film.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C4UgdMZX760
>>155278451They're misfits for a reason, anon. This is what happens when you stray from the path of Space King.Do you think Space King had a bunch of ayy prostitutes on call like with the Emperor memes or was that already done in a visual gag that I didn't notice or forgot.
>>155273690>The criticism against European style "managed democracy" is very explicit, and that's what makes it actual satire.Managed Democracy is more like North Korean or Venezuelan fake elections than anything to do with the European Union's indirect election bullshit or its member states' habit of forming wide coalitions ranging from the far left to moderate right parties to keep the "maybe have less immigration" parties with 40% of the vote out.It's just obfuscated through the pretense that voting happens by people putting their preferences into a computer and the algorithm then determining their ideal candidate, which just happens to be the currently ruling party each time, coincidentally (or for the recently-liberated commies of Cyberstan, the "be exploited by Super Earth forever" party).The first game was especially blatant about satirizing the Bush-era Great War on Terror propaganda, with a focus on the jingoism and promoting "freedom" as a motivation for the war, along with aspects of 1984 totalitarianism.It does make me curious if we'll ever see more of the civilian side of the Space King universe. It obviously focuses on the Psycho Warriors and their endless crusade, but since all we've seen of normal humans are the boy hunts, the Grim Lord, and that family that one Psycho Warrior was trying to protect in Episode 3 before the alarm went of, I'm curious if their society is any more functional than the Psycho Warrior legions and the Sanctum Globulari.
>>155279752>nothing is democratic except the military That's pretty funny.
>>155279687Democracy does exist in Super Earth's government, it's how the Helldivers decide where to implement their resources, and the satirical part is that said system is also what the Spanish anarchists of the 30s used to organize their army and it was lauded as one of the worse means to run a military known to man, below even tribal warlordism. And they do it in the unwitting name of defending a dictatorship.
>>155276663Man, I hope we get these guys and the God Machine as a stretch goal. Painting these guys up in their robes would be sick.
wonder how the lorebook will be and what info will it contain
>>155278611>HOW do people miss the giant false flag at the beginning of the story? They blame bugs halfway across the galaxy for a meteor. Last I checked, meteors do not have FTL travel capabilities. They would have had to send that shit before human life EXISTED...In the director commentary he confirms that the bugs did it.
>>155278025>anon who even knows of the OVACrazy stuff
>>155279906Looking at the rules leak, probably pretty terribleSaying the stupid words quickly in an animation works, but seeing them printed repeatedly is very cringePic related, they should have just said "alien filth" or whatever, didn't even pick up that the blue guys had a name
>>155280013Nah it’s funny
>>155277372>All that is left now is kingsmas charactersWe really used Terry too early because there's no way these guys are worth more than him
>>155280013That sounds like Blapper talk to me bucko, and I don't want Blap Blap spittle all over my nice clean Blueberry-squiahing armour.
>>155280166They probably are to Tom and Don they don’t like Terry that much
>>155262445He really is the best character.
>>155280166>>155280427Yukon is explicitly the one they like from Kingsmas. Hermy is canonically dead and I'd be surprised if Rudolph got anything. I think we'll probably just get more and more obscure monster figures.Maybe if we're lucky an expansion loosely based on Episode 3 with the AI and the caped legion there.
>>155277674Weren't human wave attacks, didn't get everyone killed, and the mobile infantry adapted immediately realizing the bugs are actually smart.The bugs should've sent a fucking diplomat to argue>what the fuck are these assholes on our clayso the federation could tell them>do whatever the fuck you want with them, they're not ours
I don't know man. I was skeptical about the board game before but after the stream, I wonder if it'll even be worth playing
>>155278611See, exactly what i meanTards see a director who is obscenely retarded and actually think he's a satirical genius despite the film and commentary track both outright saying the opposite. There was no false flag, the bugs launched the meteor, verhoeven is too stupid to understand space is big since he never shows any kind of wormhole as FTL.There was nothing at all to say its a false flag, the film shows a meteor nearly hitting a ship, the film doesn't hint at all that its not a meteor or that the fed sent the meteor themselves. The film plain as day states that the bugs launched an attack on the fed as recompense for unrelated space mormons which is casus beli
>>155280605I just want the minis. They look way better than gw's nu-marine slop
>>155280656It's a shame because I was hoping for a simple game with play with my buddies. They don't like overcomplicated shit like Four Souls or anything that needs turn structure. When they advertised the game, I thought it'd be something simple where I can convince them to join in but I can confidently say they will not play it. Maybe once or twice, but never a third time
>>155279687>The first game was especially blatant about satirizing the Bush-era Great War on Terror propaganda, with a focus on the jingoism and promoting "freedom" as a motivation for the warAnd that was far more effective of satire than HD2 where the enemy factions are now existential threats to mankind who need to be fought off yet their elite shock troops and fire support specialists are no longer grizzled veterans but bumbling retards.>but super earth drove them to do thatSure, but that doesn't matter to the people living on earth today. Those people are unrelated to the crimes committed against the bots and bugs and squids a hundred years prior, you can't just tell them>hey you should lay down and let these people slaughter you because they were wronged beforeAnd arrowhead has, time and time again, shown that the enemy factions aren't waging some war of liberation or independence, they are actively mulching civilians in giant robo blenders. So that leaves the only real criticisms being about the nebulous political structure of Super Earth and its corporatocratic tendencies.
>>155280605It won'tBut the minis look nice
>>155279091The very first episode had a fresco in High Command's room depicting Space King resisting the temptations of scantily clad alien harlots (by shielding his eyes)
>>155277513Space King's audience isn't really the typical /co/ audience, I wouldn't be surprised if most of the anons posting in these threads don't even post much on /co/ when there isn't a new episode out.I'm sure many of us are 30+ year old boomers who remember the glory days of Gachi memes.
>>155280706I get you. My friends bailed on playing anything that isn't online. Or requires any kind of effort. Now I just paint the occasional mini. Normies can't keep up, but we're dead in the water without them. It's either deal with sperglords at the hobby shop or go hermit and paint by myself. Here's hoping the game at least gets enough buzz to get a few good players.
>>155280760Needs more pose variety. There's only so much guy standing I can handle. Here's hoping we get some more psycho warriors with some variety like the robbed guys from episode 3.
>>155280769It's not like my friends hate playing board games but they don't want anything complicated. They want to play simple games like Codename, Secret Hitler, Virus, etc. Games that barely have much variety after the 10th run. And no matter how much I egg them on to try something new, the moment they see more than one set of cards, followed by dice, they bail out
>>155280762Huh, so it does.
>>155280832Love the one in the top right that looks like a ham with high heels on
>>155265814>DoublefineMade slop under Microsoft and when they got dropped due to flop after flop they come crawling back to Kikestarter
>>155267130It had some top tier shit like picrel but the main plot involving the non main characters was kinda mid
>>155280427They like retard Terry.
>>155280869There's only one thing in that image you should love.
>>155280832Why isn't the flame gun also relic gold?
>>155280832The eternal desire of boys to be the biggest baddest mfer around and for all the bitches to want you, only to say no and ignore them truly our hero.
>>155280895I really don't understand how they still have so much good will left, I dropped them immediately when Broken Age ended up being one of the most braindead games I've ever played.
>>155267130The first part of the episode was genuinely good. Then Zach's voice started to kick in and it became mediocre.I wouldn't say it was a bad episode, just not as good compared to other the four.
>>155280895>>155281016All I want from Double Fine is another Iron Brigade.
>>155281072I'd say it's about on par with the first which wasn't very good either.
The next stretch goal should be adding her
>>155277372Why Yukon and not Rudolph?
>>155280760What's wrong with the game? Gameplay so far looks like a non woke Solium Infernum.
>>155280832i see a couple of straight up succubus in there. Hopefully they make for the chaos demon stand-ins. It would make sense, the ultimate temptation and the catalysts for ruin.
>>155281304It looks boring from the way they advertise it and put more emphasis on the minis than the mechanics of the game Also games that put more time into it's jokey aspect typically suffer because mechanics will be based around what's funny more than what's enjoyable
>>155266816What do you mea->War World 5.8M views in two days>Kingsmas 4.6M views in 8 monthsWoah holy shit.
>>155281416So far the only problem is that it seems like a plyer who's screwed anyways can trigger a draw very easy.
>>155281214More memeable with his ancap ways, while Rudolph is more grotesque and they probably don't want him to be their posterboy for a Psyker type unit.
>>155281423generally xmas or halloween episodes are either more, or much less popular than any other episode in any series. Xmas in particular seems to be a non-starter.
>>155280706is it really that complex? the game looks fineoh well at least the figs are cool, they said the poses should show their personality like bryce eager to throw the lava grenade
>fur pelt Arch-Phalluses back is supposed to represent pubesHow the FUCK did I realise that only on my fourth rewatch?
>>155280013>>155267986>>155267674This really does feel like the setup for a 4 player beat em up like Castle Crashers.
>>155281893*on Arch-Phalluses back
>>155281851It's not complex for me, but my friends are normalfags. If a game has more than one card deck, figures, and/or multiple sets of dice, they immediately say no. It took me so long to convince them to play Four Souls, and even that we only touch once every few months
