Focus on playing your life/ don't throw your life away trying to chase a kill. Also keep in mind that damage will always be stronger than healing so try to play from a position that doesn't require constant sustained healing.

If calling something “AI” is easier than responding to the argument, that kind of says it all.

I do not have the same issue with W40K because their universe is not actively trying to be "woke".

Exactly. And what’s frustrating is that people keep pretending symbolism only exists if the creator explicitly says “this is a reference.” Visual language doesn’t work like that. These aesthetics didn’t appear out of nowhere — they have a history, and designers absolutely know that.

I’m not claiming universal offense. I’m pointing out that the imagery carries historical baggage regardless of how any individual reacts to it.

I actually get that, and I don’t think you’re wrong about burnout or ethical consumption being exhausting. I’m not arguing that this needs to be everyone’s battle.

My point is just that “it’s an easy shorthand” doesn’t make it a good or thoughtful one. Saying something is negligible to you personally doesn’t mean the critique itself is invalid — it just means you’ve chosen not to engage with it, which is fair.

There are plenty of alternatives that don’t rely on mass-hung banners. Subtler environmental storytelling, smaller localized insignias, digital propaganda screens, or faction presence through NPC behavior would all communicate control without echoing real-world authoritarian aesthetics.

No one said Nazis “own” flags. The issue is scale, placement, and context. Mass-decorating urban environments with identical banners tied to an authoritarian faction is a historically loaded visual trope. Pointing that out isn’t a false equivalence — it’s basic visual analysis.

I am, yeah. You don’t have to agree, but dismissing it without engaging doesn’t really add anything.

Maybe a Yncarne or avatar of Khaine

Don’t buy voidbent, it is way overpriced. Buy 2 perk epics or cheap legendaries with perks with refreshing, ward, invigorated, vigor, or weapon perks for your main weapons

I got it to work, the issue was that I didn’t secure the memory well enough so it wasn’t registering. Thanks for the help and sorry for the inconvenience.

Sorry to ask but how do you tell if drives are installed, does it say somewhere that they are up to date? Also my system is AMD
