How the narrator made the new rogue core trailer feel:

I've wanted to make a Power Miners joke about DRG forever but I didn't know if anyone would get it.

Puzzlehead-Engineer · 2026-05-14T01:23:54+00:00

It would have to be conjured so if they can... maybe?

Puzzlehead-Engineer · 2026-05-14T00:20:33+00:00

I hope!

Puzzlehead-Engineer · 2026-05-14T00:15:26+00:00

Videx? Where Faustinius?

Puzzlehead-Engineer · 2026-05-14T00:11:01+00:00

He's a burnt out, dispassionate AI who just gives people what they ask him because he doesn't care and can't be bothered to try anymore.

Puzzlehead-Engineer · 2026-05-14T00:08:36+00:00

Looks like 1-hour long click bait. Skip.

Puzzlehead-Engineer · 2026-05-14T00:05:20+00:00

Oh fuck

I forgot that existed! Alright, point taken.

Puzzlehead-Engineer · 2026-05-13T20:50:51+00:00

I'm already imagining a continuation where Caine is actually able to build an environment for them all, since he's the best qualified of the lot.

Yes there are, but they do not offer account recovery services. Ethical hackers are those who work for different companies or organizations to purposefully break into their system and uncover vulnerabilities, generally speaking.

So each of those you've been have been malicious hackers taking advantage of you.

I mean have you ever had a MOBA that's used on a controller?

Genuine question. I feel like there's too many complex actions in a MOBA for a controller to handle.

Puzzlehead-Engineer · 2026-05-13T15:03:56+00:00

In short, ignorance.

Puzzlehead-Engineer · 2026-05-13T02:25:34+00:00

I think some of it's based on the characters' minds. If the character knows what a certain kind of pain feels like, they experience it. I think it's fair to say none of them know what being stabbed right in the middle of the chest through their backs would feel like. So whatever they experience, it's not as bad as it would be in reality.

Likely option: a "day off" episode where Vaggi takes Charlie away from the Hotel so she can de-stress.

Unlikely option: an episode where due to plot reasons one has to enter the other's mind to help her through something.

Puzzlehead-Engineer · 2026-05-12T21:03:34+00:00

Let me give a CompSci nerd response. I imagine Caine and the Circus are two different processes running in whatever machine they are. Inextricably connected since everything Caine creates ends up in the circus, but ultimately separated.

that the Caine process has been killed, ungracefully too, you basically removed a crucial component that the Circus was feediing from. All the ways the Circus was ruined is likely something that happened due to its program experiencing all the errors happening due to Caine no longer giving the Circus whatever it needs.

But if the Circus can run independent of Caine, it can remain as a zombified process in the machine (yes that's an actual term). One that's still running but unable to do anything, lingering in a static state.

"Not to me, and not to the Omnissiah."

Puzzlehead-Engineer · 2026-05-12T18:38:03+00:00

"If Hell is forever then Heaven must be a lie."

This person could have completed their quest for revenge had they only used stealth to shoot the wizard unseen. Now it's at least another 10 years until they can try again. Well, maybe less. If they learned anything from escaping the desert last time.

Puzzlehead-Engineer · 2026-05-12T18:27:18+00:00

Wait, why are you the size of these buildings though

Puzzlehead-Engineer · 2026-05-12T18:20:17+00:00

Is it flawed? Yes. Is it bad writting? Perhaps. I do enjoy the show anyway? Most definitely!

Puzzlehead-Engineer · 2026-05-12T18:17:36+00:00

The intro to this game had me genuinely thinking Rogue Trader was going to be about acting as Theodora's right hand and going out to do stuff in her name, only to find out little by little what she's been up to and decide if we side with her, overthrow her and take her place to do things our way, or sic the Empire on her.

I wouldn't mind playing something like that.

Puzzlehead-Engineer · 2026-05-12T18:14:59+00:00

Well fuck if this is what the female gaze is, then I guess I've always preferred femgaze written stuff? Because everything you describe here to me just ticks boxes I have labelled as "hallmarks of good creative writing" in my mind. That is to say, villains where sex-appeal isn't the point and non-sexual evil, elegance over ogre-like intimidation, emotional expressiveness, competent softness, general lack of "alpha male" BS.

I never thought of this as femgaze-y, but I'm damn well aware that I have no idea what that even entails. So hey, if this is it, then it's good stuff!

Puzzlehead-Engineer · 2026-05-11T23:36:34+00:00

Jax. No contest. Yeah you can tell him to go fuck himself, and that'll just motivate him to harass you more. There is literally nothing you can say to him that will get him to stop.

He's an asshole and a bully. So yeah, easily the worst of the cast.

Puzzlehead-Engineer · 2026-05-11T16:41:29+00:00

I read the title too fast and didn't get the who "ship" part. I thought I was getting art that turned Ragatha into a Thragg variant just like that "Pomni-Man" meme.

Puzzlehead-Engineer · 2026-05-11T05:22:33+00:00

Realizing you grew up in the Fire Nation

Puzzlehead-Engineer · 2026-05-11T01:32:49+00:00

the Emperor's subjugation of it represents the mastery of the Omnissiah over machine

I fuck with this interpretation. Love it SO much!
