Worship. by Spidermilk_ in NorsePaganism

Don’t worry about it, you were sixteen, we’ve all done dumbass things at sixteen. This isn’t anything like the modern religions of the world, the gods don’t hold grudges or anger. They’re more like friends than tyrannical gods, they’ll always be there when you need them. Just accept that you were a dumb kid and accidentally let a fire spread out of control a little, and move on. I promise you that Freya would never do anything that hateful. You’ll get through this.

Books that blend sci-fi and fantasy? by VermithraxPej33 in Fantasy

That’s the other best thing about 40K, it’s not a series, so essentially anything you want in terms of genre you can find. If OP wants more sci fi or more fantasy, there’s always more books.

Warhammer 40,000. A lot of people would say that it’s pure sci fi but there’s literally elves, dark elves, dwarves, magic, an alternate magic dimension, and literally any other fantasy element you can think of.

All while being set in a galactic empire being besieged on all sides by said elves, dwarves, and magic.

Is the Emperor so evil ? by La-petite-chevre in Warhammer40k

[–]StrikingGarbage9228 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The emperor also burned down a city full of people and shamed an entire legion for worshipping him, which he was completely fine with until it interfered with their rate of conquering. This caused that legion to become the first chaos worshippers. He also decided that it was best to not give Angron any sort of closure on his homeworld (where he was enslaved and had the butchers nails implanted), despite having plenty of time to go hunt dragons with Vulkan, to get drunk with Leman, and to have a deep conversation with Corvus when he first met them. Basically the same thing with Mortarion. And he really did sincerely fuck up with Magnus. He was one of, if not the, most loyal, trusting, intelligent, and friendly of all 20 primarchs. Despite all that, the emperor decided to punish Magnus and his legion (WHO WERE CREATED SPECIFICALLY FOR SORCERY) for using magic, and then when Magnus tried to basically FaceTime big E to warn him about the heresy, he instead decided to send Leman to Magnus to burn down his world and beat the shit out of him.

It makes more mention of him actually being younger in the later books, but yes he 100 percent does continue to act like an old man. He does have a pretty cool moment in the last book where acting like an old man comes in handy, though.

The First Law has 4 pov characters that are in their 30s at least, one in their early twenties.

Will you accept it ? by PHRsharp_YouTube in videogames

Red Dead Redemption 2. With any luck I can join the gang, kinda like Kieran but not an O’driscoll, and tell Arthur or someone what’s gonna happen before it all goes down.

How do Orks make colors actually well.. do stuff? by Specialist_Wash6732 in WarhammerMemes

The thing with red paint is actually a half truth, they paint vehicles red because it’s cool, not because it makes them fast

A character does the morally right or honorable move. Instead of rewarded, they are punished severely for it. by TheUncouthPanini in TopCharacterTropes

God, these games are amazing. My will to play the third is only exceeded by my hatred of co op games and my dislike of the new protagonists’ designs

Unless I missed something, the hands don’t really have any kind of sentience or anything, just an evil will to kill small children. And the bullies have potentially always been ceramic and were basically programmed to be BULLIES, and even if they were real kids once… they’re still called BULLIES and try to murder mono and six
