Big Ork (in yellow)AndBig Ork (in black) has been announced for Total War: Warhammer 40,000
>giving a shit about total war after shogunlmao every game since has been just attack move (or hold position) and send sword icons at spear icons and make sure horse icons don't flank your bow icons
>>743734368The amerivdyafication of 40k and WFB is a nightmare that never ends.
>>743734368>announce a model in the same announcement where you say hes in an upcoming videogameyou cannot convince me that 40k videogames are not just blatant advertisements now>look guys, [thing] in videogame is on the tabletop, make sure to buy it!
>>743734368Think this scale comparison is off, look at the base thickness, and their head sizes. Nazdreg is smaller
>>743734742Well they're not 'just' blatant advertisements because plenty of those are also just solid games in their own right, but no shit GW has always looked at them as ways to direct more cash to their business, you won't find someone who WILL Try to convince you of anything to the contrary
>>743734368This looks closer to WoW style than Warhammer FB orks.
>>743734368Is that meant to be Ghazkull Maguruk Thraka?
Enjoy your new toys, as I seethe with the LotR releases - the modern digital sculpts are so fucking bad and soulless compared to the OGs it's not even funny
>>743736002Old vs new - cattle will gulp down the new models screaming "MUH BEAUTIFUL DETAILS, MUH FANTASTIC POSES" and paint them barely better than a retarded child would. There's something about the new stuff that makes me scowl, the digital stuff looks fake - especially the cloth and any hair/fur, god do modern GW fuck up fur or what
>>743734742When was 40k vidya not an ad for the tabletop?
>>743734742What an embarrassing post.
>>743736139space marine 1 for example, was not tabletop accurateyou couldn't buy a model of titussame with DoW 1, you couldn't buy a model of gabriel angelos (there are exceptions, e.g sindri)meanwhile DoW4 just has cyrus be a phobos lieutenant recolour, advertises a primarch (while the devs said gabriel isnt in the game because "he's too OP"), and SM2 had a titus model roughly on release and every single thing is in the colours of whatever GW sells on the webstore, sure is coincidental that its hive fleet leviathan (the tyranid posterboys) and the main thousand sons legion and not one of their warbands!
>>743737483They used to be less strict about the adherence to exact miniatures and unit wargear restriction, but obviously every decision to sign off on a licensed video game was still done with money in mind
>>743734368nugw models are so fucking bad
>>743734368Me on the left
>>743734742>NOOO DON'T PUT TOY ADVERT IN MY TOY THAT IS ABOUT THAT OTHER TOY
>>743735527yessirr
Why the hell do modern 40k games focus on being so mini-accurate rather than universe-accurate?Why are orks yellow?
>>743734368It's literally the same fucking dude.
>>743738414>Why are orks yellow?Yellow is `splody.
>>743738414GW stipulates Model accuracy in the licensed games for cross synergy purposes>Why are orks yellow?He's a Bad Moon Ork there main colour is Yellow
>>743734742Are you fucking retarded? This is some "Jews control Israel" level revelation.
>>743737483It was never, ever different anon. Anything that isn't tabletop wargame was always merely advertisement for it. And just like licensed Lotr products make Aragorn look like Viggo or licensed Star Wars make Luke look like Mark Hamill, this same happens with 40k.Titus in SM1 has nothing identifiable about him, he looks exactly as a generic marine minis did. Unlike SM2 where he actually has unique lookDoW1 and 2 is this same>advertises a primarch (while the devs said gabriel isnt in the game because "he's too OP")Why are you constantly misinterpreting this, in every thread? Gabriel is a Chapter Master and not Captain, which is why Cyrus is there instead as a protagonist, this is what devs meantLion is unique gimmick character in last mission like Angelos in DoW2 last mission>and every single thing is in the colours of whatever GW sells on the webstoreIt isn't. TWW40k explicitly showed third company and not 2nd one as alwaysRogue Trader is a literally who galore, there is donut steel Crudarach instead of red Saim Hann which is a poster boy on their site for an exampleDarktide is this sameAll Warhammer games follow this same pattern since forever. They make models in games as close as it is possible to their tabletop counterpart. Any deviation or unique look is a complete exception for which there has to be a good reason, usually confined to few named characters. Like Anton Zerbe in Dark Heresy, Calcazar in Rogue Trader, Grendyl in Darktide etc
Yeh.
>>743734368I don't give a single fuck about anything xenos related.
>>743741461GW is that you?

>>743743201>Astra MilitarumBased. Most kino faction.

>>743734742Gundam shows are ads for toys. Same with cartoons from 80s and 90s.
>>743734742cross promotion has existed since before you were born
>>743740603cool now show me where I can get the DoW 1 eldar farseer, space marine captain, necron lord, imperial guard commander and tau commander?
zestyboyz announced for total whorehammer 40k
>>743745480Where can I buy Zerbe? As I said, there were always only very few exceptions to this rule, usually characters.Nothing at all changed
>>743740603Man the old Daemon prince model is so good. They tried to copy it with the lastest version but couldn't quite capture the same aura
