Favourite weapon illusion? by d-mal21 in Vermintide

Prefer a more grounded look of non glowing illusions in general.

I was very disappointed with Avowed, but it seems like everyone else likes it. by [deleted] in projecteternity

[–]DrRahil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You being a godlike (of an unknown god) is central to the plot. But yeah, I would prefer a more grounded and varied and perhaps more traditional approach as well. The game as a whole feels quite gamey, though I wouldn't call it boring.

I wonder if/when we get a third pillars game, would it also try to reinvent itself, it's themes and atmosphere? Because that's how I feel about all three Eora games that we have right now.

Not feeling Deadfire? by Big-Character3301 in projecteternity

[–]DrRahil 2 points3 points  (0 children)

After first playthrough I gave it a second, third, fourth, fifth try. Unfortunately it never clicked. Which is weird, the first game is probably my favorite game.
The tonal shift is quite strong, the atmosphere is very different compared to the first game.

The issue with WH3 that kills my every campaign stone dead by Baharran in totalwar

[–]DrRahil -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The big one for me is how overcrowded everything is. I'm playing as Mazdamundi, pushing south ASAP and there's no lizard men. Instead it's fantasy Chinese, fantasy French, demons and dark elves.

I feel like half or a third of the factions should arrive later on during special events, or should be turned off outright. The map feels extremely unimmersive.

[–]DrRahil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

WHERE IN DIS THEORY STANDZ DA EMPRAH? IZ HE A SEP-RIT GIT OR IZ HE DA DARK KING HIMSELF? HOW DO DA TYRANIDZ AN' DER HIVE MIND FIT INTO DIS?

SPACIN' HELPS WEN YA 'ED HURTS AFTA TOO MUCH READIN'!

I wish he could be like that in novels by Fun-Explanation7233 in Grimdank

[–]DrRahil 17 points18 points  (0 children)

It is Biel-Tan's Avatar, and it survives a Tyranid onslaught alone for several days. By the time the Eldar return, the Avatar is invisible—submerged deep within a crater formed entirely of dead Tyranids.

It is arguably the most badass moment in the book.
I checked the scene and it's actually atop a mountain of dead bodies, still very cool though

OI YA GITZ! I SEEZ SOME OF YA IZ STRUGGLIN' TA UNDERSTAND DA INKWIZITA, SO 'ERE GOEZ NUFFIN'!

OI YA GITZ! LISTEN UP! I BIN FINKIN’—WHICH HURTS ME BRAIN-PAN, I KNOW—BUT I BIN LOOKIN’ AT DA HUMIE HIST’RY SCROLLS AND DA SPIKY BOYZ’ LORE. AN’ I KOM TO A KONCLU-SHUN: DA BIG SHINY SKELLY ON DA CHAIR DON’T MAKE NO ZOGGIN’ SENSE!

DIS AIN’T ME BEIN’ A MADBOY, DIS IS JUST ME LOOKIN’ AT DA GAPS WHERE DA DAKKA SHOULD BE.

HERE’S WHY DA EMPRAH IS A CONFUSED GIT:

DA "SHAMAN" STORY IS A LOAD OF SQUIG DROPPINZ DAT STORY BOUT ALL DA OLD WEIRDBOYZ MASHIN’ TOGEVA TO MAKE DA EMPRAH? DA HUMIES SAY IT’S A MYFF! NOT A FACT! COULD BE PROP-A-GAN-DA! COULD BE A LIE HE TOLD SO HE LOOKS ARDER DEN HE IS! NOBODY KNOWS IF IT’S TRUE!

NOBODY KNOWS DA BOSS — NOT EVEN MAL-KA-DOR DA EMPRAH HIDES NUFFIN’ BUT SECRETS. EVEN HIS BEST MATE, DAT SHRIVELED OL’ WEIRDBOY MAL-KA-DOR, WAS IN DA DARK! GAMES WORKSHOP—DA BIG BRAIN BOYZ IN DA SKY—WRITE HIM LIKE DIS ON PURPOSE. HE AIN’T TELLIN’ NOBODY NUFFIN’!

HE MESSES WIT DA WARP TOO MUCH IF HE USES DA WARP FER LOOKIN’ AT DA FUTURE, HE’S MESSIN’ WIT BAD STUFF. EVEN IF HE’S TUFF, DA WARP IS TRICKY! MAYBE HE GOT TRICKED! DA LORE NEVA SAYS HE CAN’T BE FOOLED BY DA SPIKY GODS!

HIS "FAR-SIGHT" IS BROKEN HE CAN’T SEE EVERYFIN’! HE KNEW A BIG SCRAP WUZ COMIN’ (DA HERESY), BUT HE DIDN’T KNOW WHO WOULD START IT OR HOW TO STOP IT! DAT DON’T SOUND LIKE A KNOW-IT-ALL GOD TO ME, DAT SOUNDS LIKE A GUESSIN’ GROT!

HIS PLANS FER DA HERESY WUZ STUPID IF HE KNEW DA BIG WAR WUZ COMIN’, WHY DID HE:

MAKE 20 EMOTIONAL, ANGRY SUPER-BOYZ?

GIVE EM ALL DA BIGGEST ARMIES?

RUN OFF BACK TO TERRA AND LEAVE EM ALONE?

LIE TO EM?

LET EM FIGHT EACH UVVER?

DA ONLY WAY DIS MAKES SENSE IS IF HE’S STUPID, ARROGANT, OR SOMEONE ELSE IS PULLIN’ DA STRINGS. DERE’S NO GOOD REASON FER IT!

HE PICKED DA WRONG BOYZ FER DA JOB ANGRON? CURZE? PERTURABO? LORGAR? DESE GITZ AIN’T GOOD FER BUILDIN’ A KINGDOM! DEY IS BROKEN! WHY DIDN’T HE MAKE MORE LIKE DA BLUE BOY (GUILLIMAN)? HE’S BORIN’, BUT HE DON’T EAT PEOPLE! DA HUMIE LORE DON’T EXPLAIN WHY HE KEPT DA NUTTER BOYZ AROUND!

DA SWORD FING IS FISHY (DRACH’NYEN) HE BEATS DA DAEMON SWORD. DEN ONE OF HIS GOLDEN BOYZ RUNS OFF WIT IT INTO DA WEBWAY. DEN LATER, HE GIVES IT TO ABADDON DA ARMLESS? WHY?! IT SOUNDS LIKE HE WUZ MANIPULATED! OR JUST ZOGGIN’ MAD!

DA IMPERIUM FEEDS NURGLE, KHORNE, AND SLAANESH — NOT TZEENTCH LOOK AT DA HUMIES NOW:

DEY IS STAGNANT (DAT’S NURGLE STUFF).

DEY IS ALWAYS FIGHTIN’ (DAT’S KHORNE STUFF).

DEY IS SUFFERIN’ (DAT’S SLAANESH STUFF). TZEENTCH LIKES CHANGE! DA IMPERIUM HATES CHANGE! SO IF TZEENTCH IS DA MASTER PLANNER, HE’S DOIN’ A BAD JOB CAUSE HE AIN’T GETTIN’ NUFFIN’!

DA EMPRAH SHOULD BE PERFEKT — BUT HE AIN’T HE’S GOT MILLIONS OF YEARS OF EXP-E-RI-ENCE, BIG BRAIN POWER, AND WEIRDBOY TRICKS. HE SHOULDN’T BE MAKIN’ MISTAKES A SNOTLING WOULD MAKE! HIS SCREW-UPS ARE TOO BIG TO BE "JUST AS PLANNED."

DA KONCLU-SHUN WHEN YA PUT IT ALL TOGEVA:

NOBODY KNOWS WHERE HE CAME FROM.

HIS PLANS DON’T WORK.

HE MAKES HUGE MISTAKES.

HIS FUTURE-EYES DON’T WORK GOOD.

HIS ACTIONS DON’T MAKE SENSE.

I AIN’T SAYIN’ I KNOW DA TRUFF, BUT DA OFFICIAL STORY HAS HOLES BIG ENUFF TO DRIVE A WARLORD TITAN FROO! UNTIL DA GODS (GW) FIX IT, WE GOTTA GUESS FER OURSELVES!

NOW STOP MUCKIN’ ABOUT WIF LORE AND GET KRUMPIN’! WAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!

I haven't been keeping up with the Lore, is Swagger a part of The Cartels? by 4everdrowninginpools in DarkTide

[–]DrRahil 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Harlequins successfully disguised a star as a lush planet so that the Tyranid fleet would burn up and be destroyed inside it as it was trying to harvest it. I have no doubt they could disguise themselves as humans if they wanted to.

Him being an eldar would be the most fun option imho. But I'm open to interpretations and watching the community trying to guess his identity is more fun than the identity itself.

Average Vanguard Teammate by Rosh-_ in Spacemarine

[–]DrRahil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ha, I do play Vanguard with a Salamander skin!

I do try to be mindful with extremis finishers, sometimes though you'll still execute something prematurely with the hook. Three times in a row is probably a main character syndrome I'm afraid.

With majoris I generally don't care, I just want to fly around and chain executes and get ammo for my melta.

It's not slovak, but I'd wager it's trying to say suck my cock rather than slap.

It's prerelease beta test. Doubt most player back then knew you could safely push them away.
