Marazhai should have had nothing but a copy of the Infantryman's Uplifting Primer to read in the broom closet during warp jumps, and he should actually have learned something from it.

>>552005648It's mandatory by law to at least play BG2 as a Kensei/Mage once in your life.
>>552001268Lantern Boy should have been an option
>>552005254Nok-Nok is a virgin at least…
>>552005801Being a mage totally ruins the sword autist vibe though, your character is now just a normal battlemage with few to none of the kensai drawbacks.

The companion in yhe next RT DLC is an Eldar PsykerThis information came to me in a dream
I'm not a furry but I would gladly impregnate Nenio if I could.
>I'm not a furry but [most unhinged furry fantasy ever]
>>552011623You think she can "forget" that she is pregnant?
Every RPG that has non-human exotic fantasy/alien females and doesn't let the human male MC romance them is anti-male demoralization slop.It takes away a core aspect of the power fantasy of such entertainment meant to make the men playing it like conquerors.
>>552012597The world doesn't revolve around you, moid + video games are not propaganda, go outside and get a job
>>552012803It does, you foids have rights because moids allow it. If moids decided otherwise thing would change overnight.
>>552000697
>>552012597why are men so fragile
Finally did Wenduag’s true romance. The payoff was nice but my biggest issue is that aside from when you talk to her in Drezen where she shows off a bit of her new personality, she still acts like an evil retard in all her other dialogue. The biggest example of this is during the Dance of Masks DLC.I feel like if a character has a arc that results in a significant personality shift then that new personality should be reflected in dialogue.
>>552012597I suggest a healthy helping of grass touching.
I played kingmaker but didn't care much for itSell me on WotR
How the fuck do you play as a Warpriest? Mantis Zealot looks cool but I’m not sure what the class is supposed to excel at.
>>552011481Just give me a daemonette gf already ffs. Ideally the story should involve yrliet ntr.
>>552000258>Favorite crpg with no romance?Jagged Alliance 3. It's really fun, combat-oriented, but still with a lot of crpg elements. I would really love to see a follow-up game by the same people. I understand every other JA game (besides 2 obviously, but it could be too dated for many players now) completely misses the point and is an awful game.
>>552016005get a grip that isn't a crpg
>>552000258Kotor 2
>>552001268I'm taking evil waifus ONLY
>>552016601It absolutely is a crpg. You have choice and consequence, you control a party, party members have their own skills and special abilities, those skills grow as they're used or trained, they have inter-party banter, some won't work with others and some get a bonus for working with others they like...There's almost constant chiming in by party members on the current situation and your decisions. You can approach many situations in different ways and these have meaningful consequences, etc. It's more tactical/combat focused but so is Wasteland 3 for instance.>b-b-b-b-b-but muh dolly smoochin !!Retard
>>552017115>It's more tactical/combat focused but so is Wasteland 3 for instance.Icewind Dale, too. Being combat-oriented doesn't stop a game from being a crpg. UnderRail might be another example, or at least the text that's there is ESL and completely ignorable.
I love my cute xenos pet Yrliet!
>>552017115they have like 2 fucking lines each they repeat ad infinitum and you just sit around in camp doing 'Train' until everyone hits mid-90s its not a crpg anymore than a gacha is
>>552015246>>552017019>>552017415Please stop being boring, your fixation/mental illness is really tedious.

>>552000697You piece of shit. *I* wanted to smooch her.
Any cheap good crpgs? Was thinking of Baldur's Gate 2 but is it good? Which one would you recommend?
>>552019081Wait, you're seriously talking about the barks when you select a character or have them do something, like the same as every crpg since BG1? Lmao my fucking goddamn retard, what is your actual point here.You cannot have, in good faith, mistaken what I was talking about, them chiming in on dialogue (and given additional possibilities in certain cases) with that. You are either retarded, or pretending to be retarded, but the result is the same.
How is Planescape Torment?
>>552017847If you are going down the heretic path might as well have fun along the way.
>>552019681BG2 is the second half of the story that started in BG1, I don't know why you would jump to BG2. >is it good?Well depends how brainrotted you are, but yes. And if you like BG2 you'll almost definitely like BG1, and vice versa. So you should start with BG1 and feel the true rise from nobody to godhood, importing your level 7-9 character from BG1 into BG2.
>>552020116So should i buy both?
Are there femcels out there that would like a submissive pretty boy they can dominate as a romance (no Marz doesn't really fit this)? Or do all of them want masculine men that are assertive?
>>552020242I don't really care what you buy, but imo the journey from "immediately killed by a wolf bite" starting BG1 through the ridiculousness of late BG2 is still the most satisfying arc of rising to power in any CRPG.I also think BG1 captures the old spirit of tabletop adventure in that open world way really well.But again, they play almost exactly the same. Same engine, same mechanics. If you like one you'll like the other, most likely.
>>552020307Outside of here Tristian had fans, he wasn't exactly femdomed in his romance, but it was mostly the fem MC taking the lead until the later parts where he was being proactive. Idk if you'd count him he was a twink that was a shy virgin, but wasn't a doormat and had his own boundaries and whims.
>BG2 released two (2) years after BG1How far we've fallen... The competency crisis is so real.
>>552020307I can't think of any male RO has been completely submissive like the other anon said Tristian does set boundaries.
>>552017904She’s…..just…..not….that…..interesting……desu
>>552021004daeran bottoms
>>552021004Completely submissive people still set boundaries irl>>552020307Women don't enjoy dominating, it's always a male fantasy.
>>552021429Daeran is not submissive. I am sure Sosiel bottoms and he has anger issues. >>552021486Do you love Kibbles any chance
Do the maps get any livelier in Rogue Trader? I landed in the first planet after the tutorial, and the outdoors just looks like I'm inside a shitty factory and everything looks the same
>>552022630Go play PF if you want forest forest forest
>>552020307Yes, me. Since those basically don't exist I'm fine with shy prettyboys like Aloth and Tristian.
>>552022630What do you mean livelier? You get like one forest map, a couple of snow covered shit, mostly factories, so much fucking factories, and some in a mansion.
>>552022630You'll get nice looking forests and alien landscapes eventually.
>>552022630Thats the 40k aesthetic
>>552023949I mean, give me something better looking like this. The factory layouts feel like I'm truly moving from loading screen to loading screen instead of an open, connected world
>>552023368>Since those basically don't existWhat would in your opinion a good implementation of such a romance concept look like then?If we use Tristian as a baseline how would you modify his to fit that concept tastefully
>>552024191Theres open planets later, act 1 is short you will see
>>552020307>dominateBut what do you mean here? Do you specificaly mean BDSM fetish stuff slave/master etc. in the romance? Or just have the guy be weaker in the power dynamic and submit to the female and have her take the lead without fetish stuff? I.E. a role reversal romance.
>>552021712bottom != submissive, daeran is absolutely a power bottom
>>552017904Post her without the piercings. We fucking HATE piercings here.
How do I best build a bladedancer that doesn’t use drukhari swords or psyker powers? The swords look like lame and I want to stop playing psyker all the timeI'd assume executioner is off the table entirely due to no easy toxin
>>552024854>Or just have the guy be weaker in the power dynamic and submit to the female and have her take the lead without fetish stuff? I.E. a role reversal romance.This
>>552025226Still can't think of any. Women aren't into that for the most part. Men would love that if a waifu was truly dependent on them.
>>552000258TQ: Geneforge series
>>552025226Then sure, just don't make the guy cowardly and bitchy.>>552025573I'm fine with some role reversal if it's cute and it isn't cringy or just there to be fetish shit. And that it makes sense companion story-wise. Maybe a guy that's a dedicated healer or academic type for his town/order/court or a sheltered young noble with overprotective parents that didn't let him partake in combat or part of a non-violent religious order, young inexperienced soldier just starting out etc.
>femdomSword of Trvth Mord Sith CRPG when??
>>552026375>a dedicated healer or academic type for his town/order/court or a sheltered young noble with overprotective parents that didn't let him partake in combat or part of a non-violent religious order, young inexperienced soldier just starting out etc.That sounds cute... we will never get this
>>552027016>young inexperienced soldier just starting out etc.Technically Alistair if you squint, but yeah, people will just write this off as faggy.
>>552027440He is boyish but his voice too deep to sell this to me
>>552027440absolutely not
Is tyranny the crpg with the most text in the opening hours?
>>552029428What do you even mean with that? Like dialogue?
>>552029550Dialogue and optional companion dialogueYou can legit talk for like 3 hours straight before even leaving the disfavored camp I swear
>>552020307Most women aren't like this, though some are, especially if they're in male hobbies and fat. But even then they don't want a complete sissy boyfriend, its just something they can play with in the bedroom when they're feeling more mannish generally. There's all kinds of people though, so I'm sure it exists, its just very rare.On the other side of that, a lot of younger women prefer the twink look for men, and as far as assertiveness goes, its more they want a man that'll be assertive for them rather than to them. You only get the attraction towards more rugged masculinity later as they mature into middle age or if they're more fixated on a father-figure type partner, it somewhat depends on their role models growing up also.

>>552003117>"BG killer">implying BG3 ever qualified as the apex RPGlmao

>>552030313bg3 has literally outsold every other crpg released in the last 10 years combined
>>552030313Sorry anon, Swen won that fucking hard.

>>552001268EMBER GET
Larians next game will outsell owlcats entire catalog combined btw
Divinity will be the best crpg ever made btw
>>552031008Even if we consider Owlcat being the second most prolific one nowadays, that's still a very low bar. Let that sink in.
>>552030132how obese are you btw
>>552031008Cheap booze outsells good alcohol. What's your point supposed to be?
Imoen
>>552031408Retarded analogy, booth booze cost the same here. Actually, maybe not since aren't most Owlcat games sold at $30 and below while BG3 is still at the "usual" price?
Afterall the real question we should ask ourselves should be: is BG3 the promised wow killer?
>>552031408he has the MORE SALES = GOODER GAME /v/ brainrotthat monkeigh game that achieved like 1 million CCU is probably the bestest game ever in his mind

Is there a way to make a proper catser build in rogue trader? I keep retsarting iver and over, figured going for a completly different playstyle might help with that.
>>552031137>implying divinity will be a crpgfate of the republic is already confirmed as an action rpg, why hope for divinity?

>>552033873>casey hudsonlollmao
>>552035057they don't look like that
considering all the indoctrination a Rogue Trader went through just by growing up in the emperium, learning about xeno scum and mutie abominations from the day they first learned to walkit is really fascinating how you can play them as a liberal humanist who wants to free mutants from abusive jerks and tries to share a planet with xenos
>>552033873>Action RPGThey've already stated it's turnbased, where do you people get your misinformation from?
Best portrait Owlcat has ever made.
>>552031008Nah if the writing's good Osiris Reborn will outsell BG3 considering how starved everyone is for that type of story driven rpg
>>552035725one of the backgrounds is you being hive-scum.
>>552035808They said that about Avowed and OW2 btw.
>>552035815maybe RT's parents were divorced, that must be it, the breeding ground for heresy, divorced parents and reading too many of those picture books instead of doing math homework
>>552035057they look like that
>>552036225Obsidian has been on autopilot for a long time, no one is surprised by how those games turned out.
>>552035725The usual suspects would not stop whining if they couldn't be their typical californians in the grim darkness of the future. Some people are just not capable of roleplaying. I dunno why they even like the genre
I like roleplaying as a good person
>>552035808pillars sold worse than dos1 which is barely a footnote in crpg history btw
>>552035725did you kill cassia on site
>>552030313When people talk about a "[INSERT THING HERE] killer" they're not calling it the apex of whatever category of thing that it occupies, it's just the killer app of that category. BG3 is THE popular CRPG now, it's the standard that every major release in the genre is going to be held against for the next few years.
>>552035725You look at today's people and think suicidal empathy isn't a thing? Really?
>>552037097>did I kill the sanctioned mutant who I came to pick up so she can guide my ship through the warp?anon, think

>>552035725a lot of people can see past indoctrination and it would be silly to stop you from roleplaying as one of them, also playing against a setting's default mindset is fun
>>552037087Why are you still talking about obsidian, Owlcat is making Osiris.
>>552037540People when I want to do acts for the betterment of humanity and mean it (I shut down the orphan crushing machine)

So I finished Necromancer's Tale and it was great though really more of an adventure game with stats than a full on crpg. Any more games like this? I also liked Cabernet which is kind of vn-adjacent as well as vn-with-stats games like Sir Brante, LLTQ, Zorana etc.

just started playing divinity original sin on tactician, got wiped in the tutorial fight twice but after learning a single cc move the game feels like a joke. anything that can be frozen, is effectively permanently frozen
>>552039862big brain
>>552044095You'll learn about limits soon enough but yes, you can effectively stunlock most enemies if you know how to juggle. Also, the fact that you can do shit like>Rain>Lightning spell to stun the enemy and electrify the puddle>Global cooling to freeze them since they're wet and freeze the puddle>Shatter for damage>Then maybe fireball to steam + lightning again for electric cloudsYou can really keep people down. Also warriors can have two early CC skills too.

What's the food like in 40k does the rogue trader eat fancy meals or mystery paste like in the matrix
>>552020116>BG2 is the second half of the story that started in BG1Oh cool I can't wait to see what happens with Sarevok and the city of Baldur's Gate in the sequel
>>552048592You're supposed to grow attached to Imoen and Jaheira etc in the first game otherwise they're just like "Hey it's me remember me of course you do because we've traveled for months together" and you're like uh no this is the first time we met
>>552024191>>552022630Yeah, there are quite a few outdoors planets Like one of the main planets you encounter early in act 2 is a jungle planet But before then you'll be seeing a lot of cityscape, especially the space station you land on right out of act 1I must say that dark heresy is better in this regard so far
>>552048769True.Which means incidentally that you MUST play BG1 with Imoen, Jaheira, Khalid, Minsc, and Viconia or you're doing it wrong.
>>552048592This is such a retard take it's not even worth responding to
>>552048463Rogue Trader eats the finest cuisine. You attend a feast in the second the DLCsLower status individuals eat progressively less grandly, right down to literal slop at the bottom, which you have a chance to sample when you visit the lower decks.
>>55203572590% of worlds in the Imperium are boring, stable republics and democracies where nothing ever happens and nobody has to really worry about monsters killing them.This plot point has been completely lost but as far as I know the normalcy+most worlds governance being left up to them so long as they pay tithes is still canon.Honestly, I don't really know why every single game lately shows every single character to be either an illiterate serf or inbred actually retarded nobles, it's like the entire 40k setting has undergone flanderization in the past decade.
>>552048463depends on how rich or well-connected you are and your position in society. the food produced on the agri-worlds gets rendered down into synthetic products for mass consumption. if you are better off, you can get the actual food items that are reserved for higher class people. "middle-class" hivers probably eat a combination of the synthetic foods (including corpse-starch) and occasionally get a real head of lettuce or real meat if they can afford it or manage to find some. poor hivers and underhivers and people on the lower decks like on your ship pretty much exclusively eat slop.
>>552049459>90% of worlds in the Imperium are boring, stable republics and democracies>normalcy+most worlds governance being left up to them so long as they pay tithes is still canon.Owlcat ending slide writers HATE being reminded of this
>>552049459>90% of worlds in the Imperium are boring, stable republics and democracies where nothing ever happens and nobody has to really worry about monsters killing them.Imperial propaganda? In my /crpgg/?
>>552049459What about the situation after the big warp thingy explosion near Cadia?
>>552048592The city of Baldur's Gate isn't a main subject of the first game. The first game is superficially about local events and geopolitics, and eventually understanding how you're involved due to your linneage. And yes it is cool to see what happens with Sarevok in BG2, and also how Imoen is involved. BG1 is the first part of the story, BG2 is the second.Cope and seethe for whatever reasons you have, but it's simple truth.
>>552049831That cut the imperium in half but didn't alter anything much for individual planets, except demon incursions became more common in some areas and many trade routes were disrupted
>>552049459>90% of worlds in the Imperium are boring, stable republics and democracies where nothing ever happens and nobody has to really worry about monsters killing them.Those worlds are still maximized for efficiency at the cost of the population. They're 'normal' from the standpoint of the Imperium. By a modern perspective they're akin to Brazil (the movie, not the country) or 1984; authoritarian hellholes where you work your shift, eat your slop, and never talk back to your manager.The only exceptions to this are worlds that are newly founded and settled, and even then solely because even the Imperium requires time to set up shop and it'll be a few decades before things are up and running.And God forbid you're sent to a newly founded Forge World, that's a special kind of living Hell.
>>552049831I truthfully have not kept up with the details of the lore post Cadia exploding, but from what I understand despite trade disruptions and obviously the problem of the expansion of the warp threat, it's still business as usual.Someone on /tg/ once ran the numbers back in like 2013 and found out that even during Black Crusades an absolute majority of the empires multi trillion member population is living a boring life and not seeing war at any particular time.
>>552050223You're repeating the flanderized meme.The imperium isn't anywhere near that rigidly organised. It is very decentralized except in key areas.
>>552049726its probably the guy who gets mad about the sisters being corrupted
>>552050418the universe got flanderized because it is a natural consequence of story telling. no one cares about a story set on some stable planet in a relatively peaceful segmentum where nothing has happened in thousands of years. these locations are just used to break the grimdark tone in stories, like when eisenhorn visits a vacation world and has a (mostly) peaceful adventure on a train until his enemies catch up to him. it's all about the hive worlds where people live on top of one another like insects, the forge worlds, death worlds, SM, inquisition, etc.
>>552050921Like how in fiction very few protagonists are regular married people with children.
>>552010563based, based and based
>>552051113right. and half of the stories in 40k start with "everything was fine and peace on Apollonius IV.... until the Tyranids showed up!" anyway.
Who is 2026's DOTY?
>>552010563Need to hammer her stone to pieces
>>552050418>Virtually every single piece of 40k fiction depicts life in the Imperium as squallid and miserable, even when Xenos and Chaos aren't bearing down on people. >"Nuh uh, akshully the Imperium isn't that bad!"Bro.Even on a 'boring' planet you're going to have 99% of the population living in dirty poverty working long shifts to produce whatever their planet's designated resource is. Tithes are not a static thing, your reward for fulfilling them is increasingly higher tithes as the Administratum decides to 'encourage' further development.Even Paradise Worlds are typically a case of 'Only specially selected servants are allowed here and if they inconvenience the nobility in the slightest they are whipped to death'.What part of 'cruelest and most bloody regime imagineable' doesn't compute?
>>552050921This is true but I would argue that Games Workshop is retarded too and doesn't understand that something that is awful and exotic only retains its exotic status when there is an example of normalcy to compare it to.But then I'm also a person who thinks that 40k as a setting is broadly retarded and can't stand just how absurd it is. Not a single character in Rogue Trader feels like a human because of it, they're all even more 1D than the Owlcat standard due to how burdened they are by typecasting.
>>552051202big e was eldarpilled like girlyman. he had an eldar pen pal and the terran webway project was so he could bring eldar wives to improve the human genome. alas, it failed.
>>552051429All your knowledge of the setting comes from meme videos
>>552046131I don't care as long as they're not black
>>552051246>"everything was fine and peace on Apollonius IV.... until the Tyranids showed up!"*Note; "Fine and peaceful" on Apollonius IV was 20-hour work shifts, world-wide pollution, weekly witch hunts, and at least one famine a month.
Huron was right btw.
>>552051519>who thinks that 40k as a setting is broadly retarded and can't stand just how absurd it isIt is, I don't understand how people take it seriously to begin with
All settings are broadly retarded, including real life
>>552051289Annie from necromancer tale
>>552049459>90% of worlds in the Imperium are boring, stable republics and democraciesI mean, I think 90% being democratic is also a misrepresentation. I'd say for the majority it's still aristocracies and noble dynasties in charge, at least a higher number than there are democracies. They're just still relatively peaceful and the nobles in question aren't always complete fucking dickheads who refuse to have dinner unless the caviar was ground on the bones of the prole.
>>552051538>alas, it failed.it's not over till the fat lady sings
>>552051920The aristocracy was voted in democratically centuries ago anon. It's all good.
Rogue Trader, Officer or Soldier?Soldier looks more fun in a way, but there are a lot of companions that do a lot of damage already.
>>552051848Real life is quickly becoming that one season where the OG writers of the first 10 seasons left the studio and a bunch of incompetent nepobabies took their place.
>>552052017Soldier is very fun, Officer is more for support.
>>552051289Ra'akhti
>>552051698sure, that's likely, especially if it is an older world. but it's definitely not every single case. there are tons of examples of chill worlds in the imperium where people work 12-hour shifts and the inquisition and ecclesiarchy are not breathing down their necks all the time and the people are well-fed. the only violence the planet sees is the guard garrision or PDF occasionally having to deal with the mutants in swamp areas or whatever.
>>552049459>republics and democraciesU fuckin' wotPlanets are ruled by Planetary Governors chosen by the Administratum, and that Governor's family basically becomes royalty of the planet. Imperial citizens don't get to vote, and if they have an issue with the Governor then tough shit since he's got the Imperium's backing over them. Most Guard deployments aren't even against major threats, they're quelling internal struggles after a Governor got too cruel and the local population revolted.
>>552052017Officer is for standing in the back telling others to fight, Soldier is to fight. Basically depends on what kind of Rogue Trader you intend to be, the commanding arrogant asshole, or the daring entrepreneur.
>>552052338That governor may choose to delegate rule to an elected council to some degree, as you can in RT
>>552046558>>552047671weren't the elves from divinity even part plant or something?
40k "fans" are subhumans that exist to vomit up 4000 paragraph text dumps of lore about how John Mctruck Tyranus IXX sacrificed ten trillion rural peasants who subsisted purely on corpse starch in the Battle of the Emperors Blown Asshole against the forces of John Mctruck Tyranus IXX (Chaos) and that this is the best example of worldbuilding ever and also why we need a fascist monarchy IRL or some assorted slop.

>>552052462Yeah, they 'can', and if those elecred officials displease the Governor in the slighrest, can't meet demands, or get too big for their station, they get executed.
>>552052782>>552052789not sure if retarded or just desperate, probably both, disgusting filh
Ok, what CRPG would you like to see in a sci-fi or fantasy universe that has better worldbuilding than 40k? You can't pick easy shit like SW or Dune or ASOIAF.

holy shit 40k is so bad and boring, how is it so popular?is it just the actual literal dollies they sell, and that grown manchildren don't have any other dollies they can allow themselves to play with?
>>552019265uhm, your jeanette?
You know you could try not using the same buzzwords that you also use to make it look like the "discussion" hasn't been done to death already.
>>552053439>>552053567I'm kinda not sure if I should stick with it. Even with full plate I feel terribly squishy without Bless, and I went Hellknight and Aeon which I'm not sure is helping matters.And now there's a fancy 75k Longsword in the shop that's looking quite appealing as well.
>>552054119>how is it so popular?it lets chuds live out their power fantasy of killing anyone they don't like (who they deem as non-human)

MARIE THEY ARE MINERALS
Just got around to finally finishing Rogue Trader lads (took me almost a year kek). It was a pretty nice game, although the final act felt rushed, especially with zero voice acting.What did he mean by this though?
What does a 40k dolly playdate look like irl? Do you make explosion noises and get your dollies, sorry: figurines, attack each other?
>>552054734>although the final act felt rushedwhy does this happen so often with crpgs?
>>552055012They work on the last act the least duh
>>552054528Fat fem MC breaking twink's pelvis
>>552054949https://www.youtube.com/shorts/bgb39lz0qNA
>>552054119Generally speaking there are several factors. The central points to it all are >This thing looks cool>I want to build this thing that I think looks cool>I want to play a game with these things I made and that I think look cool95% of the lore is an inconsequential afterthought made by GW in an attempt to make some thing that doesn't immediately look cool seem cooler.The problem is that with the spread of 40k into broader spheres, many people don't really understand that it's a tabletop model game/hobby at the core, and because they either don't want to or are unable to engage with the modelling side, they settle for secondary material such as games (which isn't particularly bad) or tertiary material such as wikis and 'lore videos' (which is very bad)People who solely engage with the lore of 40k are among the most laughably retarded people one can come across, as the company that makes the lore only cares about selling tabletop models, and will casually rewrite or the lore to promote something new. Unfortunately, those people are also a very vocal portion of the 'fanbase', which has given them an unfounded sense of 'seniority' or 'power' over not just everyone else interested in the setting, but anyone even tangentially related as a sci-fi setting. These people constantly tout trivial 40k blurbs to try and one-up other settings solely to make themselves feel better. This is also almost always Imperium fans who either deny that the Imperium are heinously awful, or embracr how heinously awful it is, making them even more obnoxious.
>>552055012Competency crisis in gamedev, and software in general, and also society in general. It's only going to keep getting worse.
>>552054734Absolutely no idea I don't think anyone else knows either Could he cut content Like how Asdrubael Vect or whatever his name is gets an ending slide (with the archon's portrait) even though you never meet him
>>552055012people tend to run out of time and money near the end of making something, not the start. CRPGS are usually ambitious too, so the scale ends up being too much.
>>552054119I like 40k because it's realistic
>>552055143this is a male fantasy

Who are the good guys in 40k?
>>552056006>>552037416
>>552055826According to 40k wikis, the term mon-keigh originally referred to some random alien species the Eldar exterminated in the ancient past.
>>5520558261) They don't 2) It's not pronounced like "monkey"
>>552056006Necrons never did anything bad so far
>>552056006Good guys?In 40K?Heh, let me stop you right there, kid. If what you're looking for is some "clean cut" morality within factions or races, well best keep on lookin' cuz ya ain't gonna find it here. WarHammer: 40,000 will take every single expectation you have and completely subvert it.It's the 41st Millennium, let that just sink in a minute ;)And in this universe you just do what you gotta do to survive. Period.
>>552056179>>552056086So they just happen to have an insult for primitive races that sounds a lot like monkey and just happen to apply it exclusively to humans that evolved from apes
>>552056006It's Crafrworld Eldar. Not even joking. It's one of the reasons they get bashed so much both in and out of lore. Back in the old days this was flat out known by their main writer and his solution to them being too Good was just to make them 'arrogant'.
>>552055826>>552056373They didn't know. But finding out that humans took extreme offense because it sounded somewhat similar to something offensive in their own language just encouraged them to use it at every opportunity.
>>552056373It sounds like Monn KaiRussians say it wrong
>>552056373Yes :)
>>552056086>the term mon-keigh originally referred to some random alien speciesWhy does 40k have so much silly stuff, it's supposed to be a grimdark serious setting
>>552056375>good guys >literally created 1 of the 4 chaos godseven humanities sins are a drop in the bucket compared to that

>>552056373Aww. Too inexplicable for a simple mon-keigh?
>>552056619got nothing on the cyber skeletons
>>552056375it's annoying that this guy writes 90% of eldar lore. he's not an utterly terrible writer, but often reaches beyond his abilities in his books.
>>552056552Craftworld Eldar didn't make Slaanesh, in fact they tried to actively stop that from happening.
the 40k fags nerds who are passionate enough to talk about their hobby/setting are 1000000 less annoying than the faggot who just wants to cry about 40k games and talk about swordhaven or whatever dogshit game he plays

>>552057237hey not all of them!a deldar haemonculus canonically likes bach's music and said if the mon-keigh can produce such genius then they are worth preserving.

>>552057596Ynnead will fuck Slaneesh into submission.
>>552054346The elven curved blade is mainly a weapon for dex builds. Full plates aren't made for dex. The question is, how is your MC built and what do you want to do with him.

This is not a 40k lore general. Just because there are games set in that universe doesn't mean spamming your boring shit lore is on topic.Discuss CRPGs.
Couldn't they just have used sunscreen instead of making a pact with the horrible monster that lived in their sun?
>>552057784Ynnead has been eternally put into a box after GWS' plan to kill off Slaanesh got dropped when Kirby was fired
>>552055669I remember watching a video from a very earnest psychologist at a Google talk who explained that scientifically, a woman with a cock is ideally configured to push buttons in both men's and women's brains. Something about pattern recognition and associations.
>>552058609No, sunscreen has a lot of harmful additives
>>552058683they'll never actually kill off slaneesh, but they might do something with that plotline eventually
>>552058558But I need to know more about Eldar, Necrons, C'Tan, and 40k in general to better understand Rogue Trader :)

>>552058695gross
>>552057851>The question is, how is your MC built and what do you want to do with him.Built in a way that I'm looking for Mr. Respec right now. I'm heavy imto Dex but I'm also running around in Adamantine Full Plate +1 with mismatched feats.
The emperor is not interested in sex with eldar women, not because they are eldar but because he is gay
>>552001268Watch this mommy Areelu get
>>552059587NTA but he's in the tavern or the inn if you're in Drezen. Sounds like that's your problem. If you hover on your AC you'll see the bonuses that add up to your AC, and you'll notice that you have 0 from your Dex. And if you look at your armor details, you'll see "Dex Bonus: 0" or something. Fighters (maybe some other classes I forget) have a class thing that lets you add more of your Dex which can offset this a little.Also keep your Encumbrance in mind. You want to be unencombered as much as possible, per character but also your party too. With high Dex I imagine you have low Str so that could also be a contributing factor, I don't recall the encumbrance penalties offhand.
Why is every CRPG level up and skill/talent choice UI repulsive and unintuitive to look at?
>>552059817and so are his sonsanyway, another 40k game, but no fantasy warhammer crpg?>I think we only have tactical war games for those
>>552060309Nobody wants to have to navigate through a stylistic ui with cool transition animations or whatever when they’re trying to read a list of hundreds of options
>>552060168I'm somehow at 26 AC with +3 from Dex even with the Full Plate.I got 14 Str, 10 Dex, and 14 Con, but I still feel squishy as fuck, maybe my saves are low or something.If my Int wasn't 12 I'd consider speccing into some sort of heavy armor melee/magic hybrid but maybe that's just wishful thinking.
How good is a Magus Lich? Or should I just be going full caster as a Lich?
>>552060309ive only seen anime games make beautiful UIs
>>552060751>hundreds of options>only a few are actually useful at certain times>let's just dump it all in a list with crap descriptions that are sometimes wrong with shit categories!There is room for improvement here.
What crpgs did we buy during the sale?
>>552060813If you hover on the Full Plate it should show what the allowed Dex bonus is. Your class might have the feat that allows +1 dex bonus every couple levels.Wait 10 Dex should give you +0 dex bonus, so that +3 is coming from somewhere else, and you said you're heavy in dex but 10 is shit?To understand why you feel squishy you should hover over stuff that lands on you in the status and see what contributed, and what you would have needed to roll. >>552060937There's a lot of lich spells that don't rely on DC and ignore SR. I haven't tried but I think even a pure melee lich could be pretty awesome. I think magus should be just fine.

>>552061606>Wait 10 Dex should give you +0 dex bonus, so that +3 is coming from somewhere else, and you said you're heavy in dex but 10 is shit?I mistyped that, by Dex is 20, all item bonuses applied, so +5 ModifierThe armor still shows Max Dex of +1 though. I'll probably figure it out more later. Game's been fun, at least.

>>552061813Glad you're having fun, I can't play it anymore after 3 playthroughs but I secondhand enjoy when other people do.If you haven't taken a lot of heavy armor feats you could just put on some other armor. You might even see your AC go up without doing anything and putting on some Medium armor that has a naturally higher Dex bonus limit.What mythic?
>>55205411940K is easily the best big sci-fi IP out there.
Is there any chance we get a romancable female Eldar in DLC for either Rogue Trader or Dark Heresy?No schizoposting or incel vs femcel seethe, just wanna see a nnice non-retard romance that at least has kissing and hugging and wondering what are the realistic chances for that.
>>552053439Grave Singer got nerfed
>>55206259240k is science fantasy. It's closer to star wars than star trek.
>>552062616>Rogue TraderNo, unless Owlcat is fine with having to recontextualise near everything having ANOTHER eldar on board.>DHMaybe, who knows. I don't really care. So many possible options and they keep insisting on eldar or dogmatic human.
>>552062616kys
>>552062616No. Eldar regard humans as animals, not equal in the least. The only reason Eldar will interact with humans is for the greater purpose of fighting Chaos.
>>552062772It's still serviceable instead of a possible 50% crit machine.
>>552063021Well Larry doesn't act that way.
Just wait for the WHF CRPG where you can date Morathi and help Malekith rule the world.
>>552062905I'm not one of the eldar schizos, I just liked the idea of an Eldar waifu from ye olde fanfics and memes to be realized in a rpgs>>552063021Larry isn't like that and if he is romancable Owlcat is not going that way.
>>552062616>RTNo. They aren’t going to double up when Yrilet exists>DHPossible. There are some different routes they could take for Eldar that historically have had ties to the Inquisition. If they want to do a Black Library DLC for example a Harlequin Girl could make sense.
>>552061443...buy?
>>552063204>Date MorathiBest you can do is have your face be 1 half of her bra.
>>552063213yes you are because you have a weird fixation on having sex with a female eldar
Laarthyr will have unhealed trauma from his wife dying of a broken heart while he was away doing his bullshit psyker quest.It will be up to the femcel inquisitor to heal his pain.
>>552063498WHF Dark Elves are a little less insane than DEldar and Morathi is sexually voracious. If you are useful and powerful, you won't be enslaved, flayed, and sacrificed.
>>552063321some are 90% off
>>552063021>Eldar regard humans as animalsNo, they don't. Stop repeating retarded memes
>>552063213>ye olde fanfics and memesthats because they are fan content made by gooners like you
>>552063498Back in my day Morathi didn’t wear a bra.
>>552062616Yrilet doesn't count?
>>552062419>What mythic?Aeon, which is what's making me rethink some choices. Most of the time I'm just smashing through things with Daeran and Sosiel providing buffs while Lann, MC, and Regill do damage. Being entirely honest I'm not even sure how effective my MC is, most fights go too fast for me to check numbers. Had some trouble with the last Drezen fight until I used Force Reality on Staunton's second phase and he just seemed to instantly die, so I guess something's working.
ENOUGH about elf fucking. Birbbros, ww@?
>>552063992I said non-retarded, Yrliet is a retarded Eldar even without the romance being shit. And it's barely a romance.
Owlcat: we are adding 2 new companions You: I want a female elf I can cum inside!!!Owlcat: How about 2 dogmatic humans?
>>552064053She's actually really likeable It won't be a sex-having romance obviously
>>552064396THANK YOU MISHULIN*eats the corpse-starch dlc*
>>552064436You stroke her quills and thighfuck her, and then you cum on a piece of meat, add a drop of your blood, and she eats it and orgasms.
just make her eat enough humans until she grows tits and a pussy
>>552064612Ah yes, the Ophelia romance route.
Before DH I never thought about Kroot females or their roles. I assumed males serve with the Tau army for a few years.
>>552056745Nobody knows but it will be funny.
Now that the dust has settled on 2025 was it a good year for crpgs?
>>552064542I don't think Ra'akhti would do anything like that. She seems like a decent young lady.
>>552064091people only dislike the romance because there's no sex involvedwhich makes sense for the eldar and especially for someone like Yriletif you want to go straight to the fucking part, you can walk up straight to Sauerback and get yourself tenderized by her 'gentle care'>I bet Yrilet was reporting her for that HR violation, I never really asked for the heretic in my ranks
>>552001268Minagho get
IdcThere are no tau so I'm not playing it
>>552064995There is nothing indecent about expressions of love between two people, anon.
>>552001268easy mommy get
>>552065032>people only dislike the romance because there's no sex involvedNo. There's no intimacy at all. It's platonic. Most would be fine with kissing or hugging only.
>>552001268I'l take a Nocticula.
>>552065196EYYY
>>552065173There is very little physical intimacy, yes, but there is some. And it is not completely platonic, it goes beyond that without having an erotic element due to all the mind melding shit you do with her. Obviously, anyone expecting any kind of traditional romance is going to be disappointed.
>>552065032Yeah if you switch the ending slide to say>PS the rogue trader and yrliet got married and, to everyone's amazement, had several children together. The boys were all human and the girls were all eldar.>And they all lived happily ever afterthen she would immediately be the most popular romance even if you left everything else the same.
>>552065421most fags do not finish the game, more do not care about babies endings besides 4chan anons
>>552057867but they're fake eldarthe real eldar were much closer to drukhari culturally
>>552065032I dislike Yrliet's romance because I dislike Yrliet. She's a disgrace to the Eldar, which is really saying something.
>>552065392The degenerate gooners here try to educate others on the meaning of intimacy and that's just fucking hilarious, like how is holding hands not intimate?
>>552065037>wanting the evil whore who is going to just use you for fun?
>>552065032>people only dislike the romance because there's no sex involvedWrong. It's shit because you barely get to know her. You just talk about Eldar lore. The game treats it like you had theese deep conversations and bond, but you didn't apart from once. Also it isn't a romance, not because of no sex, but 0 physical attraction or intimacy (she is repulsed by human touch even in late romance apart from implication that she took your hand in spirt world) and no romantic love even emotionally it feels like you became friends.You barely get to know her as a person and she has contradictory writing at times. It has a lot of problems besides no sex, which would be fine if not for all the other shit.
>>552064870Do the kroot really seem like a species where any of them would sit around doing nothing
>>552065392The ending of the first dreamworld scene is a bit sexy in a way I can't explain
What do you mean female eldar don't act like the memes???
>>552065523I mean yrliet is fairly popular outside of here
>>552065392>, but there is someThere isn't you just touch hands in souldream
>>552064009As long as you're having fun then you're playing right, but you might want to consider upping the difficulty. I'm assuming you're playing on Normal, which is what I personally recommend for new players as they get a feel for the mechanics. But if things are too easy you can sort of screw yourself out of the satisfaction of rising to meet challenges.
>>552065529Yes that's true The deldar regard themselves as just the eldar carrying on like usual and they're not wrong really
>>552065827because shes is a female elf and ""asexual""
>>552056745That's funny part - they don't have a plan
>>552064436She can kneel and open her mouth.
People hate what they don't understandHating Yrliet for not putting out is basically racism but for sexually inactive people
>>552065668>you barely get to know her. You just talk about Eldar lore. The game treats it like you had theese deep conversations and bond, but you didn't apart from onceYeah it's shit isn't itIt started out that way and I figured I'd learn about her family and why she left etcBut nope it's ALL shit I could look up on lexicanum Just bad writing, same root cause as the contradictory stuffMust have been boring as hell for the voice actress
>>552065952Most people just don’t care about getting single line “sex scenes”
>>552065668ace romance is valid, chud
>>552066118In my headcanon she puts out for other guys and that's why I'm mad at her
Raak slapping your cock against her beak as she begs for your genetic fluid...
>>552066257I'm fine with no sex since Eldar and Humans can't breed, but all the other shit listed is the actual reason why Yrliet is shit
>>552066185I meant the redditors you stalk like her for being lgbtqasas representationand being a female elf.
I don't care for sex scenes desu
Yrliet isn't asexual...where are people getting this "Yrliet is asexual" from? She just isn't attracted to humans and is repulsed by human touch which she says explicitly multiple times. She would have a normal relationship with an Eldar male or female.
>>552066584I am asexual because I didn't want to fuck Aivu.
>>552066373Yeah she starts out like a wayward child>I need no farseer to set MY path :Dand you think oh yeah this is going to be rich character developmentBut it's all just "muh kin my crudarach" without ever laying the groundwork to make us care.
>>552066584Yrliet isn't sexual...where are people getting this "Yrliet is sexual" from? She just isn't attracted to the idea of sex in general, let alone sex with a human which she says explicitly multiple times. She would not have a normal relationship with an Eldar male or female and this is your headcanon.
>>552065867I've been on normal, yeah, difficulty seems kinda swingy at times but I haven't had any game overs outside of two boss fights. I've chalked up any issues I've had to just me not getting certain mechanics, I am kinda interested in looking unto Magic a big more, Nenio's the only Mage I have.
>>552065196nice!
>>552066584Because they see "no touch no sex" = asexual. Lgbthqhqh types will claim anyone as being gay.Haven't you seen them get mad at Raztard, the Yrliet redditors post the screenshots.
>>552066584>normal relationship with an EldarThere's no evidence of this other than some reaching anons do around a few dialogue snippets from Comorragh.Instead there's plenty of evidence that she'd remain asexual in general because to indulge her passions would give an opening to Slaanesh, and that would occur regardless of her partner's species. In fact it would be even worse with a fellow eldar since it would risk two of them to Slaanesh rather than just herself.
>>552066584>She would have a normal relationship with an Eldar male or female.HeadcanonAll her peers treat her like an annoying pest
>>552066584Yrliet isn't sexual...where are people getting this "Yrliet is sexual" from? She just isn't attracted to the idea of sex in general, let alone sex with a human which she says explicitly multiple times. She would not have a normal relationship with an Canine male or female.
>>552066940Why don't they just ignore himThey act like Yrliet is a real person that he is sexually assaulting.
>>552066580gay af
>>552066960>>552066805>>552067020This is pure cope> She just isn't attracted to the idea of sex in generalShe never says this, just says being lusted after by Humans is like being lusted after by beasts and that she can't bear HUMAN touch, yet when that Eldar on Quetza touches her shoulder while talking to her she feels no repulsionDid you even play the game, it's literally spelled out that she is repulsed by humansRedditors are something else
The same shit isn't being peddled for Argenta btw.
Just rename the general either into Warhammer General or into Owlcat general. It's the only thing we talk about anyway
>>552067150>being lusted after by beastsGITWM
>>552067150>yet when that Eldar on Quetza touches her shoulder while talking to her she feels no repulsionI've never seen this, it must some super rare thing. Could be an oversight.I have seen this though
>>552067205she's a nun, so it really doesn't matter
>>552066960>Instead there's plenty of evidence that she'd remain asexual in general because to indulge her passions would give an opening to Slaanesh, and that would occur regardless of her partner's species. In fact it would be even worse with a fellow eldar since it would risk two of them to Slaanesh rather than just herself.Complete bullshit contradicted by Eldar lore. Craftworlders ave sex and reproduce
>>552067128That's how fandomfags are. Fictional characters are their babies.
>>552067349Sisters are not nunsNot at allShe also has a crush on that one guy you can save in Commorragh
>>552067150It boils down to these two possibilities:A. Yrliet is sexual, she just doesn't want to have sex with monkeighs. You believe the schizo theory that the "romance" is written purely as a humiliation ritual. You are a schizo.B. Yrliet is asexual, therefore she also doesn't want to have sex with monkeighs. This is straightforward and you don't have to start to headcanon like a schizo. Just because a character never explicitly says "I WOULD NEVER EAT SHIT" doesn't mean you have a reason to imagine they would.
>>552067347Anon she isn't angry because of the Drukhari's touch, she is angry because they were fucking torturing her by making her torture prisoners and RT showed up to save her so she had the chance to stab him. if you leave her she doesn't do anything.>A. Yrliet is sexual, she just doesn't want to have sex with monkeighs. You believe the schizo theory that the "romance" is written purely as a humiliation ritual. You are a schizo.I don't you subhuman retard never brought it up once, I just stated what YRLIET SAID IN THE FUCKING GAMESeek fucking theraphy you mentally ill freak
Just a totally normal socially active eldar girl here, lots of eldar friends and lovers, nothing unusual about her nope
This why Yrlietsimps and female eldarfags should be put down.
>>552065668>>552066127>>552066793>why is an elf on the path of the outcast who got her craftworld blown up and is racked by guilt over it not telling you about her favorite color or wine or her parentsGarbage criticism. Yrliet is in crisis for most of the game. The exposition is well done. And she does tell you about herself, it's just usually in relation to her Path and her craftworld.
>>552067659The second part is for >>552067495forgot to tag
Hey how come Yrliet is so opposed to sleeping with humans, but Laarthyr is obviously going to sleep with the (female) acolyte?
>daily YDS meltdown
>>552067872She is autistic while Larry is a cool chad
>>552067872Laarthyr is not as autistic.
>>552067779The craftworld is only blown up because they wrote it that wayIt would have been more interesting if it was still around, but damaged, and all your dealings with eldar were with emmisaries of themIt would also have had her final ritual encounter with ancestors make some sort of sense.
>>552067697Yrliet had plenty of friends!>Can we see them?No, they're in Canada.
>>552067898>Well done, Outcast >The mon-keigh are in complete disarray
>>552067659>I just stated what YRLIET SAID IN THE FUCKING GAMENo you started to HEADCANON LIKE A SCHIZO that Yrliet would be fine with sex with an eldar male/female and were called out by multiple anons. Where is the evidence?
>>552068051What about the final ritual encounter doesn't make sense as written?
Just rename this into Yrliet General. This is worse than the daily Three Houses Totally Not A General on /v/
Do you think Yrliet says monkeigh with a hard h?
>>552068382The power of simps
What compels a person to spend hours a day imagining being cucked and writing paragraphs about being cucked when they supposedly don’t even like that fetishAspire to be like build autists and obsess over something less insane like getting numbers higher at least.
>>552067872yrliet was an outcast wierdo who was so retarded she was working for a human slaanesh worshiper
>>552068451We hear her say that a lot anon. She does it like how someone would say nigger but with rolled "r"s.
>>552068103>The skein is clear. All confluences are now in alignment. Now, instead of Eldar women going to Terra for human men, the flow shall be reversed and human men and woman will revitalize and restore the Aeldari Empire.

>>552068671afraid to get BEARED, lil pup?
>>552068261You're the schizo here that argues with voices in his head: you put words in my mouth saying I believe incel theories about her and humiliation rituals which I never brought up, you headcanon that she is asexual demanding evidence of otherwise I stated the evidence multiple times that she says she is EXPLICITLY disgusted by humans. And You are headcanoning she is ace, while she mentioned no such thing, PROVIDE EVIDENCE WHERE SHE SAYS SHE IS DISGUSTED BY ALL TOUCH AND SEX EXPLICITLY NOT JUST HUMAN OR NOT JUST ELDAR BEING DICKS TO HER GIVE IRREFUTABLE EVIDENCE THAT SHE IS ACE
>>552068513Dumbliet!It's not her fault though, Muaran was the worst farseer ever.
>>552068671They still overflow here
>>552066389Why would I know anything about reddit
Yrlietfags and tumblrfags are mentally ill, they have so many copes about this character that rivals the elffag schizoIt's either waifutards coping she will fuck them after credits because they touched hands in the soul sequenceThen the acefags, there is zero evidence she is asexual. She always states it is humans she is disgusted by, not sex or touch in general. The ace stuff is pure headcanoning with 0 evidence apart from out of context quotes and cope.And see>>552067495>You believe the schizo theory that the "romance" is written purely as a humiliation ritual. You are a schizo.No one brought this up in the conversation. Yet the Yrlitard can only appeal to the elfschizo and it's own headcanon without interacting with what's actually being saidThen there is Rastard who basically made her into a whole new character while obsessing over her for yearsShe has the most mentally ill fanbase ever in all of CRPG history

>>552068820>saying I believe incel theories about her and humiliation rituals which I never brought upReal subtle. So if you don't subscribe to the schizo theory, why do you think the romance is written that way? Why write a character who is SPECIFICALLY averse to having sex with the race of your PC?>PROVIDE EVIDENCE THAT THIS CHARACTER WOULD NEVER EAT SHIT EVEN THOUGH THEY NEVER EXPLICITLY SAY THATThis is how deranged you sound. No there's no evidence and no line where Yrliet explicitly turns to the camera and say she hates the idea of sex itself. It's just called an EDUCATED GUESS you dipshit. Just like I can make an educated guess Cassia would never eat shit even though she never states anything remotely close.
maybe romance was a mistake...
Tav has a rumbly tummy from all that "goodberry pie" but just can't stop.As soon as Daddy Halsin pumps a new batch into Shadowheart, Tav is in place ready to slurp it up like a greedy little beast.

Are you retarded? She spells it out she is disgusted by the tought of being intimate with a human. She is racist like most Eldar and most humans> It's just called an EDUCATED GUESS you dipshiIt's not an educated guess, she never displays any hints of asexuality just a disgust towards humans, you just make headcanon claims and assert them as fact.It makes no sense to say Argenta is lesbian because we never saw her flirt with a dude etc.

Why write a character who is SPECIFICALLY averse to having sex with the race of your PC?Are you shitposting or are you legitametely this retarded. This isn't Mass Effect anon. Eldar and Humans fucking hate each other.
if you take your crpg dolly smooching this seriously, it's time to turn off the screen and take a walk outside. If you still have these persistent thoughts after a week, you should consult a mental health professional.
I NEED TO HAVE SEX WITH A FEMALE ELDAR, NOT FEMALE ELF, ELDAR, THIS IS STRAIGHT MALE GENOCIDE!!!
>>552070135>Because it's fucking 40K where most people are racist?This is not "most people" but a character with a name and a romance that upsets a lot of people like you. You're not answering the question. I'm not asking you to state the obvious like most eldars are racist. I'm asking you to answer why the devs and writers would write a romance that specifically denies sex to the PC but would be fine with sex with her kin in your schizo brain.
>>552070450boot up a hentai game
>>552070542Show me one hentai game with at least one eldar female

>>552070542I am joking .......Is GW aware of how mentally ill eldarcels are
>>552070458You are mentally ill my manShe doesn't upset me I was arguing about people thinking she is asexual, I literally mentioned nothing else on the topic you are headcanoning that I am one of the inccels who screams about elf sex like you headcanon Yrliet's asexuality>This is not "most people" but a character with a name >I'm asking you to answer why the devs and writers would write a romance that specifically denies sex to the PC but would be fine with sex with her kin in your schizo brain.Because that's a realistic 40K Eldar character and how one is expected to operate you fucking retard, giving her a name doesn't erase thatShe isn't asexual you are using the most idiotic leaps in logic
>>552070873obviously WE are joking anon
>>552068290The ancestors of Biel-Tan are trying to "fix" her like they're her ancestors instead of some randoms.She defies them to protect you and her spirit stone breaks, which makes no sense unless this is her infinity circuit that she's linked to.And the spirit stone breaking symbolises her being disowned once and for all, which only her own ancestors can do, not done random dickheadsIn fact she should have been from Biel-Tan. They really hate humans and their craftworld survived a devastating attack from space marines
>>552070997Why are you still responding to the tumblrtroon?
>>552070724yeah, there is precisely one WEG w40k game with eldarWhorus Heresy went nowhere and Imperial Bureaucracy Hero probably won't have any eldar
>>552071396Damn, DH DLC is looking great
>>552070997>hehe I never mentioned X so therefore you can't accuse me of being X even though I use the exact same rhetoric heheYou're a fucking waste of time. Let's agree that we're both headcanoning (me that Yrliet is asexual, you that she's sexual and fine with eldar sex) but your headcanon sounds very close to the schizo theory while mine doesn't need to change anything about how you view the character.>Because that's a realistic 40K Eldar characterSo Marazhai isn't because he's an eldar who has sex with monkeighs? Brilliant logic, you're literally more willing to twist the "realism" of a race than to accept that Yrliet could be asexual. Fucking hysterical.
I was checking out the older 40k art and it has lost an incredible amount of soul. Its completely sterile today.
>>552071396This would be DH's companions if anons made the game
>>552071396>genestealer scumburn it
>>552071601I came across a dump of 1st edition art once, it's really nice
Shadowheart incel vs Yrliet incel
>>552001268rolling for Arue
>>552071583>I use the exact same rhetoric heheWhat same rethoric? They bitch about devs only deny men elf sex I never mentioned that. The debate was about Yrliet's asexuality, which is never hinted at just that she is repulsed by humans.>So Marazhai isn't because he's an eldar who has sex with monkeighs? Brilliant logic, you're literally more willing to twist the "realism" of a race than to accept that Yrliet could be asexual. Fucking hysterical.You don't know anything about the setting. Drukhari are degenerates who can practice actual bestiality, incest and mass rape and are nothing like the Craftworlders like Yrliet is. For a Drukhari fucking anything is normal. And even he talks about how humans are inferior creatures. You can't compare her to Marz. Which the incel seethers do so their argument falls apart with that being the evidence for a "double standard"
tiefling bard girl should have been a party member. it should also be a crime to have a DnD game with no dwarf/halfling or gnome companion
As Halsin and Shadowheart fall deeper for each other, he takes the lead as the MC running the party. His team rarely includes you so most of the game is sitting at camp with Gale and the pets and Withers asking about your relationship.Cut scenes with them sharing a tent, laughing and playing all through the night while you try to sleep next to "gassy Gale".The game proceeds this way where you get to hear about all the things they're doing in the world until they solve the crisis and live together in marital bliss, hiring you on as a caretaker (since you weren't involved much, you aren't entitled to much of the spoils)"I'm.... I'm really happy for you two" you manage to get out with a weak smile at their weddingThey smile politely and look at eachother"Oh, Astarion! Ahh, please do excuse us" Shadowheart says, leading Halsin away as you try to look casual standing alone by yourself.
Is it a bot, or has he been seriously posting this shit for more than 2 years?
I was the first anon to ever post the take that led to a belief that Yrliet was asexual. Though I imagine others may have reached similar conclusions.I am here to say that when I originally posted it the context was that having a relationship with Yrliet was meant to be *like* having a relationship with an asexual and autistic woman. It was not meant to say that she was, herself, actually asexual in-universe (no aeldari is asexual in the lore).
>>552069172>She has the most mentally ill fanbase ever in all of CRPG historyHonestly this might be true.Because the schizophrenia regarding her is not exclusive to this place
yrliet is just an unfinished character with contradictory characterization. theres no other way to explain it
The power of elf lust
>>552072129>What same rethoric?Why does it bother you so much that some people headcanon that Yrliet is asexual? What does it change for you? Why did you feel the need to correct these people that she's obviously sexual and "would have a normal relationship with an Eldar male or female"? I mean that's a little strange don't you think.>You can't compare her to Marz.You can't compare Yrliet to all eldars either then. Characters are allowed to be special, weird, unique, autistic, or even asexual. You can't say that this sexless romance was written because racism!! even though there's a simpler explanation staring you in the face.
>>552072587>the schizophrenia regarding her is not exclusive to this placeIt exists only here and with Raztard on r*ddit
When is Owlcat making a WHF rpg
>>552071092It was craftworld Alaitoc, not Biel-Tan, that the Crudarach survivors and Yrliet contact. Alaitoc takes possession of the survivors so I think it does make sense they judge her. The ritual is also about reconnecting with her people and ancestors is used in a general sense. It doesn't necessarily need to be Crudarach's infinity circuit or ancestors to make sense narratively.
>>552072663Can't be, Owlcat writers are professionals
>>552072950hopefully never
Owlcat learned their lesson by making Larry the only elf companion in DH bless
>>552072950WHF is too generic. Literallly the only good thing about it is Skaven.
>>552073185WHF is based, and far better than WH40k
>>552072775>Why does it bother you so much that some people headcanon that Yrliet is asexual? What does it change for you? Why did you feel the need to correct these people that she's obviously sexual and "would have a normal relationship with an Eldar male or female"? I mean that's a little strange don't you think.Because it's false.And how does that in any way shape or form relate to the incelschizo rethoric about her? Since there is 0 overlap with what I said and they said. >You can't compare Yrliet to all eldars either then.Yes you can. With Craftworlders, not with Drukhari who are their polar opposites.> Characters are allowed to be special, weird, unique, autistic, or even asexual. You can't say that this sexless romance was written because racismIt was written like that because of racism which, she says herself she is repulsed by humans dude. She openly insults them throughout the entire game. She isn't asexual. She is just repulsed by humans. The reason why she won't be intimate with PC is explained by her multiple times over and is in line with 40K lore.Serious and MOST IMPORTANT QUESTION: Have you read or watched vids about any basic 40K lore prior to playing Rogue Trader? Since the claims you make just make it sound like you have 0 knowledge about the setting.

>>552073330>Because it's false.No, it's a headcanon. Just like your headcanon that she would be fine with eldar sex. You're not correcting a false claim, you're just saying your headcanon is better than mine. And your headcanon aligns with the schizo theory that she was written a certain way because of certain reasons. My headcanon that she's asexual doesn't change anything and clearly contradicts the schizo theory.

I hope we see more "romances" that humiliate cishet manbabies honestly.
>>552073624Every dev that makes one either stopped doing it or takes 8 years to make one.
I hope when they do DH dlc, they don't do RT style. The companion roster is way too bloated and I would've much preferred if they'd given more content to the existing companions instead of releasing more.

>>552073930>those reasons are lore accuracy No, this is you dodging the original question. You don't need to write an eldar romance just to say "eldars are racist they hate monkeighs that's the lore lol" because that would be pointless.

>ctrl+f sex>92 resultsJesus f**king christ
>>552074353Owlcat aren't really confident in DLC plans I think. WotR dlc was panned with only the Ulbrig and citadel style dlc getting any praise. I think they overcorrected in RT and tried making every DLC like the Ulbrig one. Void Shadows was fantastic and their best DLC they've ever done but I don't think having 4 Void Shadows by the time the dlc is over will be good ofr the game, especially for new players.
>>552075318sex rpgs
>>552073621Trazyn DLC could be literally anything. It could be Elvis. The ship graveyard DLC is the best chance for an Ork Freeboota or possibly a Blood Axe. Could be lots of other things too. A Votann/Squat, another abhuman of some sort, various human mercs/scum/ex-guard.
>>552074280You can have a non-Drukhari Eldar character that would be willing to have intimacy with humans (usually corsair) but Yrliet is not one of those Eldar by her own words and generally that's rare as fuck. Yrliet states multiple times she is disgusted by humans, she is open to a platonic bond, but not intimacy with a human, specifically a human. She displays she is a racist and doesn't display any general aversion to sex itself or touching itself, she is touched by an Eldar on Quetza and doesn't react. So it is more rational to conclude that she is just not attracted to humans physically and not asexual in general.
>>552075318>ctrl+f yrliet>53 results>ctrl+f romance>53 resultsRomances were a mistake, just like Yrliet

>>552075753Would Yrliet touch a Tau?
>>552075963No idea, Eldar look down on Tau, but not as much as humans, so I guess we won't know unless Owlcat writes a Tau hitting on her and we see her reaction.But my gut instinct is no, could be wrong.
Yrliet touches herself btw.
>rogue trader>want to just explore a new system>forced to spend an entire hour in multiple loading screens as 14 new events pop up during warp transit, 4 companions need to have urgent conversations (each of which takes between 3-4 slow loading screens as you go from bridge to quarters to back again for each conversation), and your crew needs to URGENTLY report (4 more loading screens) that the supplies of green beans are ready to be harvested.>repeat this same exact process until you're almost done with Act 2I have never in my life seen a more disastrous integration of DLC content into a game, it was already bloated on launch but this shit is genuinely unplayable.
>>552075921I'm not sure if you know, but... fictional characters don't exist at all

Queza Temer is so painful to play through because of loading screens
>>552074313It's either that or nothing at all. And if you don't want to pay for it, then just pirate
Loading screens upon loading screens is pretty shit though, even if you manage to grind it down to a few seconds.
>>552077404to be fair, in this case the only console war nonsense is being spewed by a particularly dumb Owlcattle. you almost never see this type of thing in these threads, this meltdown is particularly unusual.
bragging about how your SSD would totally fuck anon's mom because of how cool and powerful it is a very strange flex
>>552077448That I agree with but that's the price of them using Unity.

>>552077581bragging about how poor and mad you are is an even weirder flex tbqhwy
>>552077448They contribute to about a fourth of fifth of playtimes, it's baffling how the design for Rogue Trader devolved from WOTR and is now worse than Kingmaker. In fact RT has the infamous Kingmaker throne room loading screen bouncing as an essential feature in the sector exploration.
>>552077090She expresses disgust for humans only because a heterosexual male player is a human
>>552077548You are the console wars
I’ve worked at a number of studios you’ve probably heard of but I won't mention, and I have been instrumental in the development of several gameplay mechanics.I do everything I can to counterbalance player empowerment with friction, pushing humiliating or humbling situations and outcomes into the gameplay loop so that success never goes completely unearned or consequence-free.
>>552077948post resume then
>>552077948Based. You are my favorite dev. Officer needs another nerf btw.
>>552077090I've played that section plenty of times and nobody touches her. I think my Yrliet is different than yours.
The crazy thing about playing older games is discovering modern games have disregarded incredible design decisions. Its like watching humanity slowly losing the knowledge of the pyramids.
I imagined several scenarios where I’m cucked and humiliated. Feeling owned yet, owlkittens?
Claiming that people are only annoyed at loading screen spam in an Owlcat game is because "they don't own the latest hardware" is a bit like the particular strain of midwit that responds in steam forums to people talking about badly optimized AAA game performance with copes about how they just need to upgrade their hardware, just more delusional.Loading screens in Rogue Trader take the exact same amount of time they do in Kingmaker. Nothing has changed over nearly a decade.
>>552078480>nvme ssd>latest hardware
>>552078802He's probably from Africa or something, be nice
>>552078480>Loading screens in Rogue Trader take the exact same amount of time they do in Kingmaker. Nothing has changed over nearly a decade.Funny you mentioned that. I remember when KM released and my shitty laptop genuinely took like 5 minutes just for the game to load. Then 1.10 dropped which wiped all the saved and it then took like 30 seconds.
I have an SSD but I can't name what kind it is because I'm not a fucking nerd moron bitch
>>552078480Small Cypriot studio, please understand.Unity Engine is too hard :(

Developers need to optimize for my hard drive from 2012
Honestly dude they’re making games with you having a fucking basic ssd in mind because they’ve been standard and cheap for a long time now. You’re pretty much fucked if you refuse to upgrade.
>>552000258Finished another playthrough of VTMB. This time as Female Nosferatu. Really fun clan and it has some hilarious dialogues. Also I respect Troika for giving Female Nos the best ass in the game. A horrible shame they never got to make Werewolf The Apocalypse game. It could have been special.
>>552079170Developers need to optimize for my 24TB HDD
>>552078802>>552078480>>552077935>>552077581>>552077591This discussion is entirely moot; load times in KM-RT-WOTR are all identical because Owlcat quite literally is incompetent.https://www.nexusmods.com/warhammer40kroguetrader/mods/182?tab=description>In order to keep the load screen responsive, the game only loads so much for each frame that is rendered. This is normally a good thing, but the implementation in Rogue Trader is flawed: it loads only one entity per frame, and late-game saves are comprised of many thousands of these entities. The two biggest contributing factors to your load times in late-game are therefore: screen resolution (as this determines how expensive it is to render a frame on the loading screen; lower resolutions render quicker, so can load more entities) and vsync, especially on low refresh rate monitors (as vsync caps your frame rate to your refresh rate; if you're capped at 60fps then you're only loading 60 entities per second).Put bluntly, if you use vsync (as you should, because Owlcrap games with uncapped framerates having been destroying GPU's since Kingmaker) you also massively slow down loadtimes in vanilla.
Could Kibbles beat Cassia as the most popular female had she been a base game companion?
>>552079331Irrelevant since modern SSDs brute force it anyway. Also>vsync in 2025LMAO
>>552079462no.
>>552079462No, chuds hate Kibellah
>>552079505By all means, don't use vsync and enjoy the free heating in your house in the winter. RT is still bugged so that normal framerate capping doesn't stop the absurd overheating issues.
>>552079462easily
>>552079331Everyone knows that owlcat games are unityjank. I’m still going to make fun of someone for not having an ssd
If you don't use vsync then sometimes all character movements slow to a crawl, even though frame rate is 2 billion
>>552079505>modern SSD's brute force something that is inherently hardlimited by resolution and frameratebait used to be believable
the western non vatnik mind cannot comprehend the true genius of the owlcat programmer...
>>552079965I play at 4k and late game load screens are under 5 seconds. Keep coping though. It's funny.
Most of my hours played is not loading screens, but being paused paused on the bridge while I shitpost on here
>>552078480Company fanboy AHAHHAA
>>552080153>went from talking about near instant load screens to saying they take 5 secondsit's over... owlsisters lost...
>>552079331>loading one entity per framehuh, it's like the never changed their kickstarter era architecturehow many employees does Owlket have again? Are they all slacking off on some beach in Cyprus?
>>552079462No. Kibbles is still too edgy for most normies
>>552080153>under 5 secondsSo no different than normal SSD performance but still far too common and long?
First Pathfinder, now WH40k. Everything Owlcat touches turns to gold. I'm stoked for the new 40k game, but also excited for whatever they introduce me to next!
>>552079462No, the delinquent girl is usually less popular than the ojou-sama.
The world would be a better place if Yrliet was never made:>she is a shit character>less schizophrenia on /crpgg/ and reddit>Raszard wouldn't be mindbroken>Eldar would get a better rep with someone else
owlsisters... so our 120 dollar NVME SSD's are actually performing the same as nromal SSD's?? how could this happen to us??
Cassia is boring
>>552080153
even my toaster has an nvme ssd lmao how old are the rigs you guys are playing on
>>552080728they find a character to obsess over in every game/show/movie/whatever. they're genuinely nuts.
I used to be able to get up and go make a sandwich while waiting for DAO load times
>>552080745Seethe kek
>>552081015honestly a single long loading screen is more bearable than how Owlcat handles them.imagine if using the galaxy map in Mass Effect took 2-3 loading screens.
>>552080728You act as if crpgg was actually a good general before Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader by Owlcat Games
Should just make an Owlcat general desu. Every other crpg except Larian's are shit anyway.

Honestly for owlcat’s other games the cuckschizoing started before the game even released. DH has been tame so far.
The funny thing is Cassia is a way more popular romance than Yrliet. I guess Cassia fans aren't mentally ill though.
I'd trade the yrlitards for Froggy, he talked about non-owlcat rpgs and was funny to watch sperg at least
>>552082369Maybe because nobody is interested in romancing ugly black woman and ugly bird thing
Before /crpgg/ existed, Yrliet waited for it.The ultimate waifu for the ultimate schizos.
>>552082487Froggy was the one spamming about waifus and cucking
>>552082595Epione is /ourgirl/ thoughever
>>552082423Yrliet fans aren't the people making unprompted posts seething about the character or posting falsehoods about a romance they didn't play.
>>552082091There's a flaw here. You assume that the number of Yrliet posts is countable. I say that they are uncountably infinite.
>>552082682I will not romance female dr. Mengele, thank you very much
>>552082836I don't think she's interested.
