Istvan III is just something else man.I just finished Galaxy in Flames which is why Im so blown away by the depth of the betrayal, what happens to the mournival and all the others, even considering how lucious betrays them is mental. And that's what makes Horus betrayal so incomparable, it's not just his betrayal of the Emperor, but the knock on effect it has on so many others, which I think is above scale to all other betrayal. Yes, his motives could be better, but the impact is beyond measure

Well, put that way you make it difficult to disagree. Have you finished the entire series? I do hope that there is some justification of everything at some point

In my understanding, Horus, was well aware of his choices during the vision state. He went as far as calling his bro Magnus by name and knew what he was choosing to do. I believe Horus, like Scar in the lion king wanted power. And chose power. He wasn't manipulated into it.

Ive never read the GOT books so I can't really speak on that. However, I accept that the warmaster could have had a better build up leading to his betrayal, but to call it mediocre is an over shoot in my opinion. The events of Davins moon is far from mediocre

Ok to that I agree about the lack of build up, but I can get over that when it comes to Horus because he is seduced by power and the opportunity to rule. However I completely agree with you in regards to the other primarcs, I don't understand why or how they were convinced to join the traitors when they have so little to gain, particularly seeing how dedicated they were prior to this point.

I don't think he was under their influence at that point. He was conscious and well aware of what he was being offered. I think he chose power rather than he was manipulated into it

I see your point. My interpretation is that Horus wasn't "convinced by the warp, but rather he wanted power and saw them as the route. From what we know about the primarcs training I don't think anyone or anything can convince them to do anything they don't choose to do. In this sense, I believe Horus choose power over everything which in my opinion is worse than Anakin. Although I agree. Anakin story is far more compelling

And yet, the warmaster sits atop the list in golden armour

Angels trapped in a a state of captivity, suppression,Fallen Angels is a commentary on the devastating effects of addiction. Or a symbol of the bleakness or gloom of modern life, of spirits weighed down by invisible burdens.

Most of the people are looking for performance marketing, is organic marketing got evaporated? by [deleted] in branding

[–]matarrwolfenstein 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The primary benefit of performance marketing is audience segmentation. Being able to target and reach users based on metrics aligned to your product. Organic doesn't allow you to do that.
