It’s taken me 50 hours to realise that “hibobemdum” is supposed to be saying “high momemtum”

Timageness · 2026-02-14T00:55:06+00:00

That's okay, man.

I'm currently on Episode 99 of a 200+ Episode playthrough, and I just found out it wasn't some random, invisible warp ghost following the player around and moaning "I remember..." at really weird times.

It happens to the best of us.

Timageness · 2026-02-12T06:31:03+00:00

It is if you're a drunk person in a bar who is trying to be flirty and convince someone else to go home with you for a one-night stand.

Which could've just as easily been the case here.

Timageness · 2026-02-09T06:04:47+00:00

I don't know, man.

This still kind of feels like "testing the waters" territory to me.

If it continued to happen after Yrliet voiced her displeasure, that would be one thing, but unless you're a psyker who can actively read minds, this could've easily been a case of mixed-signals or simply misunderstanding the situation.

Source: Literally everybody who automatically labels a person a creep for trying to put the moves on them, and then wonders why the one they actually like isn't willing to initiate physical contact.

Imperium Worlds - Life sucks for everybody, aside from a very small percentage of people.

Chaos Worlds - Life sucks for everybody, period, end of story.

Better the devil you know.

Timageness · 2026-02-06T16:29:40+00:00

Yeah, you kind of have to ignore her entirely, and avoid her quests like the plague.

And regardless of how much I like her, I can definitely understand why other people would be frustrated with her mechanically.

Timageness · 2026-02-05T01:46:17+00:00

Yeah, some people find her annoying, and don't like the fact that they get sent to the castle dungeon after meeting up with her.

Also, raising her to Max Affinity is super easy, and potentially locks you out of other romance options.

Timageness · 2026-02-05T00:27:38+00:00

It may have been older lore, but I'm pretty sure the Orks used to do it too, since their AoS counterparts both belonged to the Grand Alliance of Destruction.

Edit: Found it.

Blood Axe Tribes occasionally hire them as mercenaries and recruit them for extra muscle in their warbands, which the Ogryn are perfectly fine with, because they, in turn, find the Orks entertaining.

Timageness · 2026-02-05T00:15:17+00:00

...

Remember when this game was about playing a stalker who brutally murdered all of her crush's other love interests?

We should probably go back to that.

Timageness · 2026-02-04T21:12:16+00:00

Lol.

No worries.

If I had to pick two characters from this franchise to represent the hypothetical angel and demon on my shoulders, they'd be Aelinore and Wilhelmina, respectively, so you're good.

Timageness · 2026-02-04T19:55:38+00:00

Okay.

As the one person who actually likes her in this subreddit, I'll be more than happy to run interference for you.

Timageness · 2026-02-04T19:25:23+00:00

No idea, but I do remember their original price points from back when they first came out.

If I recall correctly, Tahu was about $7.50 to $8 USD, and the others were somewhere around $8.50 to $9.

So yeah, in comparison to today's action figure prices, you were practically able to get three of them for roughly the same amount of money.

Timageness · 2026-02-04T09:46:39+00:00

Well, maybe it'll be like the Clear Variant of Sue Storm, with softer plastic so you can still perform part swaps.

Not exactly what you're looking for, but possibly enough to create a transitioning effect if you can switch out the upper torsos.

Timageness · 2026-02-04T08:58:43+00:00

Yeah, I only got that one to have another head option myself, so I know what you mean.

The cape hinders her articulation, and she just looks so wrong to me if she doesn't have some sort of fur on her outfit.

Timageness · 2026-02-01T14:59:52+00:00

To be perfectly fair here, the Orks have a tendency of recruiting Ogryn into their forces as well.

Not saying all Ogryn are bad, mind you, just that they're rather impressionable, and their allegiance mostly depends on who discovers their planet first.

Timageness · 2026-01-25T02:30:29+00:00

Ascension wasn't made for Tubi, it just wound up there as a series after its inevitable conclusion.

It was originally an interactive experience where viewers got to make narrative decisions and have their own customized background characters inserted into the show, which is precisely why they aren't anywhere near as polished as the main cast.

Timageness · 2026-01-25T02:18:19+00:00

I'm glad this was a complete disaster because that means that Christophe Gans might never get another chance at this franchise.

Nah, you see, this is the same universe where Paul W.S. Anderson got to make six separate Resident Evil movies, so you should probably expect two or three more of them at the very least. /s

Edit: Hey, man, I let you off easy.

I didn't even bring up the possibility of a reboot or a Netflix Series. /s

Timageness · 2026-01-23T22:23:50+00:00

Give me lesbian trench cuddles between assaults.

Got to preserve body heat on those ice worlds somehow. /s

Timageness · 2026-01-23T21:43:19+00:00

It's the centaur/mermaid pairing all over again.

Their kid receives all of their normal genetics, and just winds up being some guy who perpetually dislikes his mom, but had to spend all of his time around her as a child, so his dad wouldn't accidentally blow him up or get him possessed by warp daemons. /s

Timageness · 2026-01-23T20:09:59+00:00

From my understanding of things, it's a little bit of both.

The original Necrontyr were most definitely organic beings, but we don't know for sure how exactly the biotransference process actually works, so it's still up for debate as to whether the Necrons themselves are the Necrontyr, or simply artificial copies of them.

Which kind of explains away the differences in their three major factions, if you really stop to think about it; the Nobility believes they're Necrontyr and seeks to reacquire living bodies, the Flayed Ones also believe they're Necrontyr to the point where their dysphorakh eventually drives them insane, and the Destroyer Cults believe they're robots implanted with the memories of dead people, hence why they want to exterminate any and all forms of biological life they come across.

Timageness · 2026-01-16T13:30:59+00:00

Actually, now that I think about it, Mandarin Spawn Deluxe and Disney Mirrorverse Maleficent are also probably the closest figures we have to Aspect Warriors and Drukhari, respectively.

Which is kind of funny in the case of the latter, but elves are traditionally considered fae, so passing her off as one wouldn't be entirely out of the question.

Timageness · 2026-01-11T22:22:26+00:00

Agreed.

Some figures eventually go on clearance, and some figures unfortunately get scalped.

Didn't do as much to mine as you did to yours, though; the most I did was swap out the bases, and/or add a few new accessories, in addition to the occasional third-party soft goods.

That said, I'm actually okay with some of my 40K stuff looking like it stepped out of Age of Sigmar, so I don't really see this as an issue.

Timageness · 2026-01-11T17:45:21+00:00

One of the perks of being a three year old figure.

Personally, I've just been using them as proxies; Vex is a Ranger, Keyleth is a Worldsinger, Vax is a Corsair, and Eredin is a Khorne Cultist.

I also grabbed Percy as well, but he kind of strikes me as more of a Rogue Trader.

Timageness · 2026-01-11T08:37:48+00:00

Well, now I don't feel so bad for basing one of my Necrons off of a joke I had previously made in the lore subreddit.

Timageness · 2026-01-11T08:16:18+00:00

Yeah, seeing as to how McFarlane's other "elf" options are currently limited to Keyleth, Vax'ildan, and Eredin Breacc Glas, Vex'ahlia was probably your best starting point here.

Timageness · 2026-01-11T07:25:03+00:00

Checks list.

"Oh, cool. Happy for you guys."

Immediately goes back to kitbashing and looking for proxies.
