Rouge Trader companions look significantly better in comparison ( not even including the DLC companion)


Edit: Even the blurbs are less interesting then Rogue Trader.

Imagine paying a collector edition that has no physical disc, will be broken on launch and not even including the inevitable season pass,

What a joke :lol:
What are you going to do with a physical disk.

Was right about every single one of them, no need to thank me.

Black character is a psychopathic drug using Mengele doctor "NOOOOOOO THIS IS WOKE". Actually, you're right, the crazy fucks who do gruesome medical **** are all white, better protect that heritage.

Hey, maybe it won't have rogue trader's awful custom ruleset this time.


:sad:

As if.

I like the setting and I think Owlcats games are at least pretty cools from it's complexity but I am sceptic, hoping for the best.

The ruleset definitely was an absolute mess.

I'm a chaos player and would love to see a game revolving around the dynamic of corruption but having it as a unfitting after though like in Rogue trader is a pretty **** idea, so they should just not have the option at all.

Some predictions :
  • At least 1/3 of abilities wouldn't work at launch
  • A stupid minigame that wouldn't work
  • Combat based upon stacking 564646546841351856746564646834368 debuffs and 65463543684631 buffs to get 4613654545186764 attributes so I can deal 5643646531685343516156 damage against a enemy with 75161515536468346534685441634685468748946541856468 hp. And if you don't stack 365483964863748943 buffs and debuffs, any common enemy can survive 54465053 shots of bolter in the face.
  • Zero cool psyker powers and those who will be in the game will be 4e tier bad powers
  • All powerful weapons like Bolters and Plasma guns will be anemic as lasguns
  • They will reduce good to equality cultism
  • Leveling up will be a shore and not fun and rewarding.
  • The last 1/3 of the game will be borderline unplayeble mess till two years after the second DLC release
  • Lots and lots of gay romance.

Most likely Owlcat is going to stick to two alignment’s for Dark Heresy game of being a puritan or radical inquisitor.

Playing a puritan is gonna be weird seeing as nearly half the companions are xenos, wonder how that's gonna fit into everything.

I’m sure Owlcat will find some excuse to hand wave it. Additional can’t wait for them to **** over puritan players for choosing that route because it’s “Evil”

And that would be the way to go.

Still hoping for a real chaos game though, but I am weird.

So if there's a kroot party member, then chances are that the Tau may be featured in this game.

Who wants to bet that the Tau will be depicted as the only faction who is objectively moral good and there will be countless in-game lectures about how communism "the greater good" is in fact the bestest best thing that ever happened to the galaxy or some **** like that?

Game "looks" about as fine as Roguey Trader looked. I'm not familiar with the Dark Heresy game system but I do hope that they can come up with something better than whatever ******** RT was trying out.
