>Act 5 is the point of no return and when you get introduced to Necrons>The new DLC supposedly takes place in Act 4, likely to introduce you to the Necrons earlier
>>737298731I assume the new roboboy is not romanceable?
>>737298731Don't you have a run in with Necrons once you're out of the dark city? I swear I remember some booby trapped zone with Necron soldiers spawning out of fucking nowhere
>>737298860They are a part of one sidequest.I don't even remember what the sidequest is even all about because it's random as fuck.
>>737298806Why do you want to fuck him
>>737298946It's an Pwlcat tradition that every DLC companion is fuckable. I am just wondering what am I getting into.
>>737298731Where is shadow of the road?
>>737299014Dude had 6 stacks of versatility so that kick was buffed to hell and back
you will be trapped in the museum forever unless you have sex with the fat bastard
>>737299181can it be my waifu instead?
>>737298731I don't get vibes that it is going to be goodTrazyn will probably have as much prescence as Vect in the main gameAlso>Trazyn has a collection of all dudes from any age>New companion can be anything from a man of iron from before the long night to loyalist word bearer to a negron using obamium scarabs swarm as a weapon to other xeno species>instead it's an admech with diabeetus because GW has a new model for one-____________________________________-I know that 40k-tards (like myself) will buy almost anything which says "contains 40k" but that is absurd if the only thing in the DLC is going to be a 5 sec Trazyn cameo and baron Harkonen, without any improvements to the base game>>737299014It isn't made by owlcat
>>737298860>>737298920You can visit random Cold Trader hideout which some Stryxis fucked over. If you mess with one object there, it unleashes some Necrons
>>737299014
>>737298731is this game finished yet?
>>737299570Anon....
>>737298989And it was owlcat tradition to only have a single companion dlc, there's always a first
>>737299530what the heck did he hit?
>>737298731FAT ROBOTS ARE SO COOL
>Trazyns vault of endless companion possibilities>here’s a fat tech priest Owlcat shits on its fans.
the tech fatty is supposed to be the "new companion that can reshape battlefield tactics" or whatever? from his brief explanation, only thing this guy seems to do is to zap stuff with electricity and i guess they will allow us to install implants
>>737300993He doesn't even have a unique class kek it's just Officer then whatever else you want from himProbably going to turn as worthless as Jae unless for some MIRACLE they decided adding the GOOD Officer talents to him like Focus!
>>737301512Sounds good, the game has no officer outside of someone who spends most of her time using navigator stuff, and an annoying brown whore nobody uses
The new companion will change everything
>>737301746Fr?
>owlcat realizes Jae is so fundamentally unpopular that they make a third alternative officer companion classKek
>>737302201i mean only way she is useful is if you specifically get the dlc class
>>737302273She's an officer, she's useful by default, people just don't want to put up with her
LAYPEOPLE could be here
>>737302273You could in theory set her up to focus on pistol work and give her extra turns plus crits with that holster
>>737298731Owlcat are such faggots they couldn't even do the final dungeon properly. There's literally shit you find in chests for your colonies that you cannot use because you are at the point of no return. How fucking retarded are they?
>>737300782A sausage kerb. They're fucking deadly because it's a literal ramp if you hit one dead on.
>>737302989I use the holster on my rt character because my rt runs with bolt pistol + plasma pistol
My biggest hope is that the new fatass comes with new insults to hit Yrliet with.
>>737298731Waiting for them to release all the DLC to buy in one go
>>737302201She's unironically a really strong as a skill monkey thanks to her cold trader passive but I kill her on Footfall every time because she disgusts me. The stupid cunt also gets into wars with every other party member in the ending slides for some reason.
>>737303731But Pascal also get into war with everyone else
>>737303834Only with Yrliet
>>737303834he did nothing wrong
>>737303731I’m currently attempting to romance her and every second is torture
>>737304151He actually would end up fighting Jae and Jae retaliate by killing Abel. Also he could end up killing Olfar new brothers
>>737304151He also steers space corgie's pack of corgies on their corgie spaceship sailing corgylly through space where he gets MIA
>>737301726The PC is Noble Officer and it absolutely trivialises the fucking game.
>>737304971>not Psyker Executioner
>>737304971Playing as a buffslut? Sissy
Fighting necrons is so frucking boring.
>>737305637Trazyn's museum is full of all kinds of creatures.
>>737298731I liked the game a lot but I don't think that I will ever replay it so the DLCs are of no interest to me. It's not a game I can jump back to. Do people really start new campaigns just for the DLC?
>>737306419Yes but not for every single dlc, only when 2 new ones are outI waited for both void and lex to be out for my second run, and I'll wait out this one as well
>>737298731If the DLC companion is another fucking Human then I don't care. Owlcat dropped the ball by only including two xeno companions and making them both shitty fucking cunt Eldar.
>>737303273You aren't retarded enough to be Cypher.
>>737306982It's a fat bastard Techpriest, anon.
>>737306982LMAOMAO
>>737306982RT made me genuinely hate eldar. Before now I was just kinda neutral on them but holy shit they're annoying.
>>737306419Yes, one per DLC
>>737307757>if yrliet sticks with you even she gets tired of themwhich is all the more funny since they get annoyed at her
>>737306419idk when you beat the game but when lex came out i can safely say the game ended up in a fairly different state compared to how it was on launch
>>737298806He's a ugly bastard compared to previous dlc companions SO I doubt it. But that means an ork or something in that vein could be added if romance isn't mandatory...
>>737309591Starrok said the next companion will probably be romanceble so that rules out ork unfortunately
>>737309675no he didn't eldarfag
>>737309675Source
>>737309779There is none, he's just been shouting that everywhere because he wants a eldar mommy waifu
>>737309591What if everyone was asking for a big ugly guy you can fuck?
>>737298731am i the only one who hoped for orc enemies?
>>737310895nothere is an ork skull in your suite already and orks are supposed to be very prevalent in the regionit's weird that there are none
>>737310048My hentai rapist fantasy fulfilled thanks Owlcat
>>737310895everyone wants Orks, they're perfect as enemies and a freebooter works perfectly as a companion, why the fuck they don't do it is beyond me
>>737309431She gets the firing squad too. Wipe them all out.
>>737311750GW wants to sell Admechs this time, last dlc it was the cops
>>737311934they're currently releasing a bunch of Ork stuff for Armageddon however
>>737311750>>737312113Too much work lol
>>737312113admech takes priority!! apparently they are going to be in the Darktide too
>>737311782Yrliet is the main justification for going chaos because you can sacrifice her soulstone to slaanesh
>>737311750Orks would steal the show and really, they deserve a game of their own like an extended Ork campaign of DOW2 Retribution. >Settin' Gitfinda to panzee!
The whole game is one big humiliation ritual for Yrliet.
>>737312351She's the one who wanted to join up with humans, deserved
>>737312313>Orks would steal the show??? explain
>>737309591They won't add ork as a companion, Owlcat already said that Xenos are extremely hard addition because they break narrative and cannot benefit or participate in conviction mechanic.So with an ork you're messing up narrative, removing dogmatic/iconoclast/heretical paths and making second non romanceable character, not going to happen.4th dlc will likely add a proper human pirate companion and probably a space ork faction to deal with one way or another.
>>737316003They said that? Source?
>>737316003none of the characters benefit or participate in the conviction mechanic to begin with wtf are you talking about
>>737314442Unique and charismatic, they'd be an instant fan favorite
>>737299396Rak'Gol in Rogue Trader never ever
>>737302273>>737302989What? She's super useful as master tactitian, she buffs your party through the roof
>>737299396>>737316865>Make a game in a part of space that canonically has lots of cool xeno races, locations and plotlines unique to it >Barely use any of it because it wouldn't boost GW's mini salesCorporate mentality sucks every last inch of soul out of everything
>>737298731>newcron slop5th edition and Reddit and the divine ruined this faction
>>737299350Exactly my thoughts. Also it's retarded that out of all the cool and unique new places you could visit as a Rogue Trader they're basically just making you revisit the last dungeon of the game, but resided as a whole dlc. Unless the Necron tomb will just be one part of the story and there will be some other neat places beyond that - I really wish it to be so. They did make a really good job with locations for the 2 previous dlcs. Also Trazyn is by far the most overhyped and insufferable character in all of modern 40k and he barely fits the tone of the setting at all, I hate this faggot. I don't like using this buzzword, but he's reddit incarnate
>>737317363Trazyn is reddit but I kinda like him.
>>737298731Well, I hope they introduce them properly this time. I still remember beating Act 5 without my Rogue Trader ever knowing what Necrons are. Of course, I know what they are, but it was kind of anticlimactic for my Rogue Trader to just battle some strange xenos.
>>737316003>removing dogmatic/iconoclast/heretical pathsThe elves already have no conviction with that. Thats not an issue. >second non romanceable characterWhy not? Fat bastard can be the testing ground.
>>737298860There are signs of necrons in SEVERAL places over the course of theentire game.Off the top of my head your ship, your capital, another one of your planets is a damaged tombworld, pirate den, and the big spacestation all have either references or necron tech.You even fight a squad of them in the pirate den.
>>737298731>Adeptus Mechanicus faction revealed for Dawn of War IV>this garbage fatso in Trazyn’s dlc>likely Adeptus Mechanicus for next Darktide classAnyone who says GW does not meddle in products and decides what gets incorporated into DLCs and games need to be shot. We only have this nigger because of GW demands.
>>737316003Cowardly nigger excuse for a tabletop setting that have a lot of those things available.
>>737320089Please don't call him garbage. When the DLC comes out you will feel ashamed of your words & deeds.
>>737316003>they break narrative and cannot benefit or participate in conviction mechanicWow, I don’t give a shit! Give me an ork companion or literally anything other than a human!
>>737320089And we'll probably get an Admech trailer for Total War 40K too
Are they saving all good dlc companions for dark heresy? wtf is this.
An ork companion could never work
>>737321740Freebooters are literally in the RT PnP and available to play. How would they not work.
>>737321740Why not? It's literally a playable option in the OG Rogue Trader. Ork mercs are a thing and they do work with humans occasionally. Having him around in social situations would hardly be a bigger issue than having a fucking Dark Eldar
>>737298860There is a jumpscare run-in with them in chapter 4 if I remember rightly. You're in a sort of museum and they port in
>>737321740Anything could have been in the vault
>>737322151That's awesome! Here's another admech!
>>737298731>Companion enters in act 4>is an admech>is an officer>only takes up one cell despite being a fat cuntNot getting this DLC.
>>737322395owlcat hire this man!
>>737322561>Companion enters in act 4he's going to be early game because they got backlash for the last one
This might be my favourite RPG of all time and that's despite the fact that the combat is complete and utter shite
>>737317267Kiss my ass you joyless cunt.
>>737323137>>737317267In case someone doesn't know, it's the first strictly Necron POV story.It's awesome, bittersweet, and hilarious. It's the first time in a while writers other than Sandy Mitchell remembered the dark comedy roots of the setting. Read it.
>>737298731Have Owlkeks commented on backlash regarding new companion being another admech
>>737323804they canceled all future DLC plans
Olwkek is mentally retarded if they don't make the next companion a xeno.
>>737323804What exactly do you want them to say? They're not going to cancel or rewrite the DLC, just release it and hope that people like it
the combat balance in this game is garbage even at max difficulty it gets easy as fuck after act 1
>>737323804They can't suddenly change the character because waifufags are unhappy
>>737323804It's kinda sad really, knowing Owlcat the fatso will most likely be decently written and cool enough on his own, but it's hard not to hate him given how redundant he is
>>737324282Just explain why they picked AdMech again or something and if the next companion is a xeno say so to restore some disappointment.
So GW wants to shill Admechs but why this specific type?
>>737323445I will
>>737324739Just be warned the novel assumes you know the lore. There are no soft introductions.
So RT has mostly normal companions and DH is freaks and xenos....why?
>>737325290The casts are very similar, though?
>>737325290>RT has mostly normal companions>unsanctioned psyker>tech-heresy born Navigator>outcast, and literally autistic, Eldar>Inquisitor>Dark Eldar>heretek Magos (incoming)>Death Cult assassinRT has plenty of weirdo characters
>>737325290>DH is freaks and xenosOut of 6 companions we've seen so far 2 are perfectly regular humans (it's just than one is from Catahan and the second is severely autistic), 1 is an ogryn, 1 is a sanctioned psyker (which both, while not a standard human, are a fairly common and accepted thing in the Imperium) and, well, 2 are xenos. But hey, radical inquisitors are a thing
https://steamcommunity.com/app/2186680/discussions/0/803470896719431743?ctp=3kek look at the mass of people saying how disappointed they are
>>737298731I wanted a necron companion to make Jimmy extra mad. Total Jimmy Rage!
By the by, Owlcat, if you're reading this.If you want to finally implement a (romanceable) actually friendly Eldar, there's always Craftworld Valantha.>a canon Craftworld>actually TRADES with Imperial worlds>actively DEFENDS Imperial and Exodite worlds from Chaos threats>actively TRIES TO MINIMISE civilian casualties>actively cooperates with the Inquisition against ChaosThey're completely overlooked but are actually the closest to a truly friendly caste of Eldars in the setting.
>>737324573they don't care about the specific model, DT wll probably get a skitariiOwlcat wanted an Officer and the Manipulus is a field debuff/buffer so it just fit
>>737325850>If you want to finally implement a (romanceable) actually friendly EldarWe don't :)
>>737325850Make it male :)
>>737325910>Officer and the Manipulus is a field debuff/buffer so it just fitThat makes sense. I know he's not a sexy woman but the gameplay mechs sound interesting.
>>737324946I've ambiently picked up the lore just from being on the internet.
>>737317067Meanwhile Gladius has Enslavers, Umbra, Psychneuein and Catachan Devils, none of which EVER had minisDarktide has traitor guard based on Vraks Traitor Guard upgrades which weren't available by the time Darktide releasedCA can add random AoS tier shit like Mortars shooting magic spells or Amethyst infused ground marines out of nowhereBut then GW gets triggered with random shit and blocks randoms things. You can't make sense out of it
>>737305218>Not Psyker Master TacticianLincpin go brrrrrr
>>737327056Yeah, initially I though this might be a matter of some copyright stuff with FFG (who wrote the lore for Koronus expanse and don't work with GW anymore), but then again places like Footfall or even characters like Winterscale or Tocara are lifted straight from their sourcebooks, so it can't be thatAt least based on the alpha Dark Heresy will actually have Yu'vath as one of the antagonists, so there's that
Another AdMech companion is kinda disappointing considering we already have one. I was hoping for some new xeno
Well atleast fatso is no female George droyd like in that dow 4 trailer
>>737327391None of this makes much sense. If there is any logic to GW policies then it must be changing all the time, quickly and depending on how much they trust a particular developer. I think GW might have far more trust for Fatshark and CA so they can do more. Owlcat and Saber maybe will be allowed to do something more unique eventually now that they proved themselves. DoW4 devs are kept on a tight leash so far. That's what I believe.

>>737327698They've already fullfilled their quota of black male and black female character
>>737327905What the fuck is a special human?
>>737327990Guessing who the 4th DLC will feature as a party member:• dogmatic human• 'special' human• xenos
>>737328325Like a mutant or heretical war psyker or chaos related, anything non standard imperium
>>737325850>Craftworlds
>>737306419I have played 7 or 8 campaigns so far with 4 or 5 of those being with the dlcs. Though I also love this game alot so playing each dlc with a completely new character and the character I made in the beginning isnt hard to convince myself to do.
>>737330150I've played the game about a dozen times 7 of those times was with the same character
>>737329643qrd on all of them
>>737319020You don't see a difference between base game content that can be cut however they want (like Marazhai joining near the end) and expansion where companion is big sell point, but that is none of my concern, gutting content will not sell your product.>>737320289But that is not happening and that's all. Next companion is romanceable human.>>737316070Google it or smth, that was statement of one of the developers, plans sometimes change but it won't be a case in this matter (hard to implement does not mean impossible, but Owlcat is developing two games simultaneously)>>737316268You can turn your dlc companions to chaos or soften them up, or make them full dogmatic. How do you implement it for an Ork?
Write a 500 words plot summary for the 5th dlc that features tau
I would only accept and ork companion if it's a weirdboy.
>>737330238>Google it or smth, that was statement of one of the developers, plans sometimes change but it won't be a case in this matter (hard to implement does not mean impossible, but Owlcat is developing two games simultaneously)I followed them a lot and don't recall them ever saying this
>>737316003>they break narrative and cannot benefit or participate in conviction mechanic.AS IF ANY OF THE OTHER CHARACTERS PARTICIPATE IN THIS, WHAT A DISINGENUOUS ARGUMENT TO MAKE AND I DON'T EVEN WANT A XENO COMPANION
>>737330238>You can turn your dlc companions to chaos or soften them up, or make them full dogmatic. How do you implement it for an Ork?Why would you need to?It's a fucking greenskin merk, you keep him around to help you in combat, intimidation and maybe to occasionally come up with some brutal yet cunning solution for a problem that's brilliant in its simplicity, not to care about his opinions on moral issues. And because of his entertainment value. Abelard has a personal arc about being torn between saving the dynasty and his family and about either being conservative in his ways or more flexibleIdira and Cassia both have personal arcs focused on either being more independent or more useful to the greater organisations they serveJae has a personal arc about either going semi-legit, or staying in shadowsMarazhai has a personal arc about either trying to rebuilt his former cabal or fully letting go of itDon't fucking remember what exactly Ulfar's deal was, but IIRC something similar as wellThe point is, the way you can affect half of companions and their personal stories has nothing or very little to do with muh dogmatic/iconoclast/chaos axis and that's 100% okay, so why would it be any different for an Ork?The only reason it mattered for Kibbles and Solomorne is because you don't want Chaotic/Iconoclast players to be completely cut off from a DLC companion they paid for. Which wouldn't be an issue at all with a morally neutral ork
>>737330235Based did the same but with Fallout 1 since I learned that when you do a fighting guy build your companions rarely survive as much as with golden tongue
>>737331052*serving the dynasty or his family
>>737330238You romancetards are so upset with the fatty you are now claiming 4th dlc is a romanceable elf/I guess human now. They haven't said shit about it besides the general dlc description. >gutting content What content, we don't even know whats in the dlc. If this is still about convictions that's still not an excuse. You also forget you can play as unaligned conviction. Still shouldn't stop a Ork from being added, even other Xenos.How your RT reacts to the Ork/Xenos/Whatever is your conviction points.
>>737330238>Next companion is romanceable humanSOURCE?I'm getting tired of asking for sources here, you people have really good at making shit up
>>737331209There is NO source, hes lying
>>737316003>break narrativeWhat the fuck does that even mean? rt barely even has a narrative. You're just running around the expanse doing random shit until the plot arbitrary decides to advance
>>737330238>(hard to implement does not mean impossibleYou are thinking of the DH admech. They want the admech there to be romanceable but GW will tell them no.
>>737299570lol noowlcat never finish their games, they frontload the first two chapters and then do jack all with the rest cause they know you cant refund
>>737331506It works everytime!!
>>737331052>Abelard has a personal arc about being torn between saving the dynasty and his family and about either being conservative in his ways or more flexibleThat was SUPPOSED to be his arc. However it's not ever brought up except for in his initial quest, and how you resolve it doesn't have any bearing on his attitude throughout the game. It's a nothing burger, just like Abelard's entire character. Seconds least developed character after Argenta>Jae has a personal arc about either going semi-legit, or staying in shadowsNot an arc. Whether she becomes legit or not has no bearing on her character, and just like with Abelard is only the ofcus of her first quest>Marazhai has a personal arc about either trying to rebuilt his former cabal or fully letting go of itNot an arc and he doesn't let go. He is just left without options. If a new oportunity introduced itself he'd grasp it because he's a completely static character that doesn't change in any way
>>737330887But it would be a nightmare for placing said xenos in current narrative/plot. It's simply too much work, the last companion is someone shaped by Processional of the Damned, so its a human, probably some ghost, pirate or imperial scout.
Will Dark Heresy have Xeno representation beyond Kroot and Eldar?
>>737331761There were Yu'Vath constructs in the alpha finale, so them I guess
>>737331761I DON'T care. I legitimately don't. I just want a good character
>>737329643For me it's the one and only.
>>737331650My point isn't how well realised those arcs were, my point is that half of them have nothing to do with the companion's standing on the conviction system, so it's nonsensical to treat that as some must-have thing for future companions
>>737329643Sex with Iybraesil women.
>>737331681An Eldar like a harlequin could work, just have them be a schizo
>>737331052Neutral ork means less choices, like you said you have these choices for two previous dlc companions and you'll have this choice for the current dlc companion, removing RPG content from a RPG game is not wise move and Owlcat knows it plus fitting an ork in retinue is much more problematic than you'd think, that means a lot of rewrites, unique interactions, new gear only for ork and other workarounds I'm not aware of that have to be processed and accepted by IP owner, it's too much work.
>>737332420That's just a more broken Kibbels with exactly the same play style.

>>737331052>The only reason it mattered for Kibbles and Solomorne is because you don't want Chaotic/Iconoclast players to be completely cut off from a DLC companion they paid for.Asinine argument since most of your companions are dogmatic yet it doesn't stop them from working with iconoclast, and even in case of heresy only 3 of them leave, and the 4th one is outside the alignemnt system entirely

Exposure to Tau philosophy is making people want to rebel against the Imperium and join the Tau, the planetary governor is hoping to avoid the rebellion if only so he doesn't also get glassed in the inevitable Imperium retaliation, and the Imperium really doesn't want to have to pull that trigger because it would risk starting a war with the Tau that the sector's battlefleet isn't equipped to handle. For this reason and others, the Tau see no reason to stop anything they're doing. The RT becomes everyone's middle man, tasked with quelling labor riots, anti-Imperium acts of sabotage and destruction, and anti-Xeno violence that would compel the Tau to send in the Suits. With help from a Kroot companion, the RT discovers that the situation is being manipulated by a genestealer cult hoping the Imperium and the Tau tear each other apart and leave the sector vulnerable to a Tyranid invasion. Depending on how honestly the RT behaves with all sides, the planet is either lost to the Tau, the Tau are forcibly vacated with promises to return, or the planet is either devastated by war or stuck in an uneasy stalemate getting its balls busted by both sides equally. If the RT is far too trusting with information, the genestealers successfully outmaneuver both sides and the Tyranid arrival becomes inevitable.
>>737333371Visarch really is a baller model
>>737333383Yeah I also read that Cain book.
>>737333495And I'd gladly reread it again.
In my next playthrough should kill marazhai outright, or recruit him and humiliate him at every opportunity and let him watch his chances of becoming an archon slip through his fingers until he becoms a lowly hobo forced to work with human pirates?
>>737333042As in it's a pretty generic Craftworld that was utilized by the old 40k RPGs (RT, Dark Heresy, Deathwatch, etc.)It's more or less Eldar Necromunda, with various noble houses and infighting.
>>737332493But it will not happen this time because GW is not Paizo.Look Ork is not going to happen, the simplest proof is "It's someone shaped by the Processional of the Damned" you can't shape an ork, ork shapes its enviroment however it wants, unless they meet someone strong enough to boss them around.Other Xenos are also very unlikely, 3rd Eldar? Not going to happen, and you can't shape an Eldar either. Kroot? I don't know why would it want to go back to the damned place... or how would it be found and not killed in first place, too many mental gymnastics for this one. Tau? Lol nope.Human/mutant? Ez pick no issues to implement can follow any path.
>>737333654>GWNow, wasn't that simple? Instead of making up all those excuses that are not a problem for Owlcat you could have just said this. Why the fuck is GW going to care if making ork exclusive gear is "too difficult"?
>>737333426Pretty sure he's the last Jas Goodwin design added to 40k.
>>737333564>defeat your nemezis verbally>defeat him in battle>humiliate him and make him lose his standing among his kin>make him into your subordinate>make him into your bottom bitchI don't think I've ever seen an antagonist in fiction that can get as brutally mogged as MarazhaiHonestly though keeping him alive past act 3 just makes no narrative sense whatsoever no matter what sort of character you're playing, unless your RT is just a fucking moron.Which is a shame, because I genuinely like his unapologetic edgyness and I think he has some unironically decent chemistry with the RT. Even if you don't romance him you can see how he gradually begins to respect and trust you even though he struggles to admit it to himself
>>737298731When can I play AS a Necron
>>737334091Mechanicus 2.
Necron? More lilke morons lmao
>>737334334kek bodied that freak.
>>737334334exterminatus just dropped
>>737333787GW is one thing, second big issue is the amount of work they'd have to put into the dlc to make it work, once again they are not working only on dlc, there are two games they're actively marketing atm and two unannounced titles. Yes making new equipment for ork is an issue when compared to another human who can equip already existing items.
>>737333916The corsairs were also designed by him
>>737317267i want to play as necronsgood for you son, heres your gallon of silver paint and your gallon of green. try and have fun now!honestly, fuck these skeleton robots
Why do people like Eldar? They're unbearable losers in RT.
>>737335078Cool aesthetic. That's it
>>737335078They have the best looking model range in all of 40k and cool lore
>>737335078Honestly, porn. They're pretty and their women are often portrayed with tits and ass.The lore people like about them is made up or scant. Their designs are nice but niche in 40k. Their tabletop gameplay is powerful but not particularly fun.
>>737332992>Squirepost outside /twg/Can't wait for TW40K. So glad I don't need to wait forever to play Guard and Eldar since they will be base game races instead I have to suffer the inevitable wait for them to get updates when they are inevitably power crept by other factions when they get added.>>737335078>Cool looks>Cool lore>Cool dudes>Also their entire playstyle whether it be tabletop or in games appeals to dickheads (me)
>>737335078they are elves thats why
>Can't even keep a thread aliveIs this the power of Owlcat threads with romance posting?
>>737337618We have had like 5 rogue trader threads hit bump limit in these last days. For a game that's not massively popular, and a couple of years old, that's not bad at all.We have simply exhausted what can be said about the fat bastard.
>>737337885Yeah everyone got the bitching out of their system until launch
>>737337618Romance posting manages to attract a massive amount of autists no matter the angle you use so it's a guaranteed way to keep the thread alive.>Can accuse people who like xyz girl of being cuckolds>Can shit on Owlcat for making/implying cuckoldry in some of their characters romances>Can theorize companions/romances for future games/dlc>Can bring up Yrliet to piss off pro-Eldar lady romance autists>Can say you want an Eldar lady romance to piss off the anti-Eldar romance autistsAnd those are only a few examples.
As much as I enjoy some CRPG romances I genuinely wish Owlcat never included them. They have attracted the worst form of dicksucking crowd. Tumblrites and fujos.
>>737338318okay waifufag
>>737338406But I'm not.
>>737334334TAKE THAT BACK
desu, given the trend of DLC providing "Companions that make more sense in Dark Heresy", I figured the Companion for Processional would be a Daemonhost, or something like that.
>>737338318>fujosThere you go again using words you don't understand. owlkek have low fujobait representation. Just Daeran
Why did they even make a rogue trader game, this feels like a grander scale dark heresy. Mostly doing inquisition style errands and barely any xeno companions in DLC just dogmatic human spam
>>737338724The entire rogue trader subreddit userbase disagrees.
>>737338791Because it's coolAlso it sells a different kind of powerfantasy from Dark Heresy.
>>737338902>but muh reddit
>>737338948Yes muh reddit. It's where Owlcat devs hang out the most other than their trooncord and sadly who they listen to most as a result, as well.
>>737335268give me a fuckin kill team with warlocks or spiders gw you cucks. Also, give me a spider in game. teleporting shenanigans would be fun as hell
>>737339038Do you even know what "fujo" means, or are you just throwing around fancy new words you've heard without trying to look up their meaning?
>>737339120t. fujo
>>737311750Owlcat is the biggest bootlicker dev team around and they will do anything that daddy GW tells them, including making their entire DLC revolve around trazyn and fat bastards for muh brand synergy
>>737339163Oh, ok, you're a retard then. Continue being retarded
>>737339290keep on shipping, fujo.
>>737338652The processional of the damned is cut away from real space and can only be entered via a specific web way. Which means the companion we’re going to get is going to be shit.
>>737338318>>737338479>I enjoy CRPG romances>That's why I want them gone and why I didn't romance anyone
>>737331761No because they hate you, and if you complain they’ll just say “too much work! waaah (please ignore how we’re spending millions making a shitty mass effect clone)
>>737339415That's not true, you teleport to it via a specific webway in that one campaign that features it, but it does have a physical location in the Expanse and thousands of wrecks end up drifting towards it. It's even marked on the map, in the accursed Demesne Region
>>737339746We're going to get one of those salvaging voidmen who hang around there.
>>737339984we're getting a third ad mech companion
>>737298731No SoB romance no buy
>>737340380I'm going to fucking scream.
>>737340380Can we have the one with the spider feet? I lov them spider feet
>>737327056How is Gladius? I like Civ style games is it fun?
>>737338902>>737339038get off reddit you retard
>>737341089Impossible when Owlcat posts all their fucking news there.
>>737341146okay tank your reddit karma fatty
>>737341503I'm tanking my life
