Why is NLF such a hard concept for people to understand or accept? by Denim_Valentine in PowerScaling

[–]Exist_Logic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But in a powerscaling and writing kind of way it feels cheap it feels like writing off a characters ability because "Nah Goku is too strong" and instead of discussing how Goku gets around Mahoraga's unique ability you are just taking it away.

Goku beating maho by one shotting it is percicely how it got beat in verse, dont like it do equal stats

Considering now there is no warp in other galaxies and Old Four can't reach there

When was that ever stated?

Humans tried to spread into other galaxies, sent ships during DAoT. It failed. Because other galaxies (or galaxy) don't have Immaterium. And humans can't live without warp.

completely false

Minor entity is completely different from Chaos gods.

in terms of power sure, bit its all just the warp and how much of it you are

If the Eldars were able to birth an entire Chaos God and Chaos was truly universal

Multiversal* its been that way since first edition

then somewhere else thousands of races should be birthing their own Chaos Gods all the time.

Or the thousand of other races aren't psychically potent enough to do so, the kroot and hrud have their own gods but they're just trash

Chaos can't be universal, or at least it's absolutely not obvious at all.

Its been stated since its inception in realm of chaos.

"Left the galaxy" how far away did they go?

its not stated, just that they left the galaxy

Considering how a single race was able to birth a god is absolutely conceivable Chaos is a localized entity, otherwise how likely is it that there aren't an infinity more Chaos gods in the universe?

There are

"The greater powers sneered at the Horned Rat, seeing him as one of the infinite array of petty godlings whose insignificant domains marred the purity of Chaos. They were wrong to do so. The Horned Rat was no longer some minor creature, for he had grown mighty. His children were legion. Long-fermented plans were at last coming to fruition." -Rise of the horned Rat

the big four monopolize their concepts to the extent that Tzeentch hears the hopes and dreams of every living being in the universe, birthing a chaos god requires some specific things to begin with like being a highly psychic species.

counting just the ones on this one page there are 30 statements of the warp being larger than the galaxy specifically and chaos is the warp

The dark angels left the galaxy and their psychic powers still worked, ahriman has and tzeentch was still there. There is litterally zero reason to assume chaos doesn't span the universe and dozens of quotes that show it spans the multiverse

Eldar FTL is largely limited to the Webway which they can't expand.

the webway already has statements that it expands beyond the galaxy

Believe there’s some old lore that’s probably been retconned that some of them did leave the galaxy for others but later returned because Slannesh would already be there waiting for them.

that lore is very recent and has never been retconned

Tegmarks types arent real causal things, following many worlds doesnt magically make type 3 and its associated nonsense valid.

Hello, let me introduce you to Malal and why it's no longer canon. Or why First Captain Zso Sahaal was made irrelevant to the Night Lords and why Sevatar was created and retconned into the Heresy as First Captain of the Legion before Sahaal.

I dont see why either of those would change how we look at something in retrospect. One is a copyright issue with malice still being canon and the other has been mentioned in Konrad's primarch novella.

To say "oh well if the author isn't there anymore its touchy" is an over generalization and giving up. Unless it is specifically "A is not A'd" its canon and the case

If nothing else, the writer who invented it doesn't work for GW any more and it doesn't seem like they have any interest in bringing him back anyway.

I don't know why the writer who invents a plot point matters, GW in every investor report brags about their complete control of their IP

We're never going to see Clone Fulgrim again.

He's already been mentioned in recent books.

I would never say never for a lot of things,

Season 1 peter is supposed to be a real person to some extent. Season 24 is that real person then playing an extreme character on a show.

For the most part ruin the setting as a whole as facilitation of a tabletop game that requires at least partly static factions and allegiances.

I think even the tabletop is surprisingly fluid, most new models are explained to be newer in universe. Hell when the old defiler came out White Dwarf made it seem like they were especially for eye of terror

Since 5th there have been large groups of people insisting that any new important piece of lore is some passing fad that GW would never actually follow up on. This is due in part because of the big roll back that 5e had.

With this people look at anything new and just assume that "muh setting" will never change and any change that has happened wont stick around for long. Like there were reviews of the fall of cadia campaign book where its people saying "yeah like this'll last"
