>Warhammer, but they're ninjasSo after failing with China Games Workshop now tries to pander to Japan?
>>746984925MARK OF THE NINJA KINOOO
>>746984925dude clan eshin has been a thing since before you were born probably
based western devs suckthey don't really care about games, they just want to put woman commissar and negro spacemarine
>>746985316Te be fair they look like monkeys wearing trashbags
>>746984925>nowThere were always ninja rats.
>>746984925GW's strategy for Japan is turning models into gacha blind boxes
https://store.steampowered.com/app/3756700/Warhammer_Age_of_Sigmar_Deathmaster/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pwsV7KPdZlYThis game looks legit good btwMight be the first good AoS
>>746984925i'd like to see some whack ass rat ninjas fare against a proper waghget the fudge out of here bro
>>746986410I'd wait for the full releas. Stormground had great gameplay, but the small dev struggles to make enough content for it or handle the bugs fast enough on launch.This doesn't look like a much bigger team
>>7469849251. Clan Eshin has been a thing for decades2. Japan has already existed in this setting for decades, it's called Nippon3. You are a massive faggot
All of Warhammer is based on cartoonized versions of real world shit.And Warhammer sells like shit in Asia. I assume.
>>746987754The games don'tChinks love RT and WH3
>>746987790I'm surprised that the CCP hasn't banned 40k already.
>>746987790>Chinks love RT and WH3Source needed
>>746987790What do they do about the undead? Counts and Kings have entire armies of skeletons.
>>746988184They model skin on them all and they look like weird clay golems in their version of the game
>>746984925Bait thread.Clan Eshin was a thing since forever.Also Cathay was met with a lot of positivity from China.If they wanted to cater to Japan (which has a steadily growing Warhammer community), they'd announced Nippon a long time ago.
>>746988184The skeletons are a meme, they don't actually care that much>>746989213I can't find anything about a chinese version of the game, I think you might be lying.
>>746986410>sidescroller>sigmarlost interest in picoseconds
did the ninja rat stuff come out AFTER the dragons and chinese elf races? your little narrative seems temporally DISINGENUOUS. we arent disingenuous on 4chan, anon. especially not on /v/
>>746990427TWW3 fags are desperate to justify thier lore raping asspull faction, aren't they?
>>746991590going to be real for a second. TWW3 is the best form of warhammer. no one gives a fuck about the faggoty toys-- they stopped making them, even, no? literally everything is in tww3 should be cannon. LAW.
You just KNOW that these vicious little shits prison rape each other now and then if they aren't prestigious enough to have access for their breeder onaholes.
>>746991807...Yeh sure, they would do that
>>746985648so do lots of "humans"
>>746991807Doubt it ratfaggot, animals are at their most instinctively vulnerable when shitting and mating. No skaven is going to put himself in a vulnerable position to prisonrape another one so he can get a dagger in the throat while he moans.
>>746985316Yeah, further proof that the rats are the mary sues of warhammer>more numerous than orcs>better tech than humans and dwarves>better magic than elves and lizards>better monsters than chaos>better at ambushes than beastmen>have ninjas, gatling guns and nukes>only "weakness" is that the clans don't work together often
>>746988113>Source neededThe massive amount of chink mods on the workshoplike the one that adds gacha girls to warhammer 3or the one that makes the women attractive instead of ugly shapeless blobs of the vanilla game
>>746992005>like the one that adds gacha girls to warhammer 3uhh bro? i think i need the name of this mod
>>746984925excited for my second wife's game. (don't tell mina the hollower)
>>746991959>at their most instinctively vulnerable
>>746992046here you go>Summon Servant EN Translation>英灵召唤 (Summon Servant)>Lin's Generic Framework English TranslationIt includes titoria and evil titoria, which is the one (two) gacha girl I care about.
>>746991959Only reason why they wouldn't be doing ALL the time, but a pack of lower ranking stormvermin absolutely would rough up and take their frustration on twinky clanrats in secluded locations.
>>746992317thank you
>>746984925Kid, I used to buy Skaven ninja pewter miniatures and lick them clean in the 90s. This isn't some new pandering thing. Holy shit. Born yesterday zoom zooms.
>>746986410>sigmaroof
>>746984925How would ninja appeal to Japan, that's like adding cowboy character for American audiences as if people still watches Western movies.
>>746984925now? that character is over 40 years old.
What’s with the sudden seething about skaven?
>>746992758Westerns were made by Italians to pander to Americans.Ninjas for Japan are exactly the same thing as Eastwood
>>746991963>The average skaven is malnourished and weaker than the average human-things>Skaven tech backfires and kills Skavens as much as it kills human-things>Skaven magic backfires as much as Skaven techAnd let's not forget, every skaven, no matter how strong and powerful they are, they're still a coward at heart and the Skaven race could never live up to their true potential Read the novels next time before larping Warhammer
>>746984925Konnichiwa, dude! I don't care about specific Asian types because I dig ALL Asian chicks. They're so docile and tight. Can you hook me up?
>>746992865>>Skaven tech backfires and kills Skavens as much as it kills human-things>>Skaven magic backfires as much as Skaven techMeaningless "weaknesses" because they have the biggest numbers so their extremely OP magic and tech killing as many rats as enemies is a win for them.
>>746992865wish they leaned into this more in tww3
Why would you even want to lander to japs? They’re poor and only play gachas
>>746993059There's 100 milion of them. That's more than any country in Europe
>>746992865>The average skaven is malnourished and weaker than the average human-things And they still win because they have 20 skaven for every human>Skaven tech backfires and kills Skavens as much as it kills human-things As long as their tech has a 1:10 K/D ratio it's a decisive Skaven victory>Skaven magic backfires as much as Skaven tech Same thing as the tech, there are always infinity+1 Skaven as long as the plot requires there to be more Skaven. They ate the world while the biggest Chaos host ever was banging its head against Middenheim.The biggest joke is, Skaven are hit hardest by the Warhammer writers not knowing numbers, for all their swarm potential, if you just go by the numbers in the books, there are more humans living in Altdorf then Skaven living in Skavenblight.
>>746988113>setting where humanity is enslaved to the the most comically oppressive tyrannical dictatorship in fiction, and it's still the best option available to them40K is right up their alley
>>746993424Chinese people literally worship the cartoonish safeness of Warcraft
>>746993158Most of those are old geezers and all of them are poorAlso they just don’t buy real games
>>746987754Japan is their fastest growing market.
>>746986410>2D stealth platformerDead on arrival
>>746993005>>746993312They're big numbers is a weakness of some sort, they can't afford to feed and arm everyone probably so only stormvermins get the good gear and have enough food to mach human strengthAlso another thing, in my headcanon Skavens suffer from prion disease due to how much they cannibalize each other
>>746992865>Read the novels next time before larping WarhammerLol, secondaries punching down on tertiaries. Only retards and faggots read black library's fecal extrusions.
>>746993860>
>>746991590There is nothing that is lore-rape.A lot was around since 2nd ED Warhammer Fantasy.Cathay was simply polished-up and various rumors made true.You are trying way too hard.And don't try the Mary Sue card.Cathay is utterly dysfunctional internally. They simply mask it well.
>>746993896
>>746993960>he doesn't know they made Cathy civilise hwire m*n and creat the Empire in the post-Chink lore
>>746994097Go ahead and post your models.
>>746993960>actually we have non-Chaos-corrupted Beastmen>and our biggest flaw is one of leaders is addicted to crack (this is does not significantly affect his judgement or abilities) and one is aloof from humans
>>746984925>>746984951>Warhammer, but they're ninjashell yeah
>>746994167brb gonna go buy some
>>746992758
>>746994176>and they have to fight off WAY bigger Chaos incursions than the Empire and Kislev ever have to deal with, and they do it every week
>>746986410It being set in the absolute trashfire that is AoS is genuinely enough reason to not give a shit. Zero stakes, zero reason to give a shit that Generic Infinite Town gets a rat problem.
>>746986410>Might be the first good AoS
>>746994337Red dead is only doing well because it's an open world game made by Rockstar.It didn't do enough for the genre to completely revive the trend, also the audience gives absolute zero fucks about westerns outside of the game, and think the game is the only thing that's needed to represent the genre.
>>746994114Nope. However it's damn impossible that Sigmar didn't bone Miao-Yin, knocked her up and that there is probably a bloodline of Shugengan with Sigmar's blood.>>746994176Nothing says that the Tigermen are not of Chaos origins in the new lore. They may very well lie to themselves if you read it thoroughly.And yes. Zhao being a warpstone crackhead if funny.>>746994340Yeah, because they are very close to the Chaos Wastes, thus it's why they build their Great Bastion.
>>746986410>First good AoS>Good>AoSIf AoS had its own TW game then MAYBE then it would've been good.
>>746992830No Westerns are made by the Hollywood, Macaroni Westerns are later made by Italians to subvert the idealised vision of western frontiers.
>unironic CCP shills ITT
Why is AoS incapable of getting good games?
>>746997687Because it's a bad setting. Polishing a turd and all that.
>>746997782I guess it is that simpleI keep hearing how it sells really well but nobody ever talks about it beyond the models being niceIt just doesn't connect
>>746997969I've also heard that, but then again I've heard the old war outsells it. I don't think any hard sales numbers exist, and I've personally never seen anybody play AoS in person.
>>746998613>I've heard the old war outsells itMaybe in Neverland. Old World has been a flopfest since launch
>>746998936Is that why they're still making new kits that keep selling out?
>>746999194They halted sells for half a year and made some AoS guy take over the project as the new lead over the morons running it
>>746984925As others have said, Eshin are not remotely new. The Deathmaster name comes Snikch, a WFB special character whose second mini is 17 and whose first mini is 32.>>746999420When did they halt sales?
>>746999420source: my ass
who takes care of the skaven babiesI know skaven eunuchs that take care of the females have cuddle piles
>>746999420That sounds more like a marketing issue than the product itself then.
>>746991807>clanrat that's really into getting roughed up and fucked by human male sell-swords >he's one of the best spies his clan has
>>747000078>skaven babies
>>747000359>straight up born as fully grown adults nowhuh >eggsHUH!?
>>746991963>>more numerous than orcsSkaven breed like crazy compared to whf's orcs who are not as OP as fuck as their 40k counterparts>better technevermind how much of an anathema to OSHA skaven engineering is. They may be able to build a nuke with enough warpstone, but there's a heavy chance the construction of said nuke blows up on their faces>better magic than elves and lizardsI'm pretty sure magic is OP wholesale, but also see above. Skaven magic can be volatile or shit backfires on them like Thanquol trying to summon a vermin lord, only to summon fucking Skarbrand the Exiled One of all things.>Better monsters than chaosNot really, what skaven have is quantity>Better at ambushes than beastmenSkaven exist just about everywhere in the world save for ulthuan, there are skaven under your floor, there are skaven under your walls. Skaven's vast expanse makes them a better jumpscare than beasties>Ninjas, RATling guns and nukesAgain, see above, their tech is as volatile for them as it is for their enemies>only "weakness" is that the clans don't work together oftenAnd their low morale where they will be scattering and running away the second a battle doesn't go their way, or that 90% of the skaven in a battlefield are slaverats with blunt rock spears as weapons, or that a musket shot from any human to a good target like the flamer rats = funny chain reaction of rats burning up.The rats are comedy relief the same way 40k's orkz are the peak comedy relief, difference is that orkz are having fun while skaven are having anything but fun because everything is misery.
