Did the chapter even create new Drukhari players or were they all women having a hard on for Marazhai?

Imma stop you right there, OP, its Dark Eldar, or Deldar, not Drukhari, do not fall for Games Workshops copyright tricks

>>734120237
Faction is too complex to play for your average 40K player.

What about Aeldari?

Nah why would I want to be evil?
>>
>>734120487
They weren't encroaching on copyright, they wanted to get copyright. You can't copyright the word "Eldar" "Imperial Guard" or "Space Marines" (they tried and failed) so they had to make special terms for their stuff so they could get copyright.

Why are you even playing 40k if not to run an army full of the worst fucking people in the cosmos?

Lmao, get fucked GW. Serves them right.

Soon... we will get our refresh...

>>734120327
What's wrong with having the variety? The other words are in Eldar language while the classic names are in gothic and are from a human perspective

GW must really hate the female audience if they refuse to use this, I can't imagine having the "I can fix him" faction and then not doing anything with it

I'm kinda conflicted about this. People used to love Asur, Druchii, Asrai, Dawi, Dawi Zharr, etc. Hell, some dwarf players are autistic enough to use words like Elgi or Grobi as racial slurs. Yet when they try to add similar thing to 40k then it's "Fuck GW!"
>>
>>734124445
GW thinks that making the Custodes female is what their (tiny) female audience wants, which tells you enough about how clueless they are about women.
>>
>>734124860
Its because theyre still called 'high elves' etc in meta aspects with the terms you listed merely being used in flavour text. In 40k they replaced it in both cases which just annoys people.
>>
>>734125809
>autistic nerds who game all day know nothing about women
I could have told you that one retard
>>
>>734127935
We already had fluff terms, asuryani and eladrith ynneas, before the chapterhouse debacle. AoS got the brunt of the stupid names though, orruk, ogor, aelf, gargant.
>>
yeah you could tell season pass 2 was not planned lol, there was like a one year gap between them.
I guess its because void shadows did much better than expected, but what about lex imperialis? I didn't see as many people talk about that one.
>>
>>734128634
We heard arbites, we thought we'd get an occult glowie taxman, we got a heckin pupperino, can't start my day without mah cawfee, and 4 dialogue options that range from fuck the police, FUCK the police, blue lives matter and i've got to go.
They had a pretty cool intro cutscene on rykad minoris however.
>>
>>734128924
I haven't played that dlc yet but the companion just seems sooo boring
>>
>>734128924
I greatly appreciated all the shotgun shenanigans that Lex Imperialis let me do.
>>
>>734128634
>but what about lex imperialis?
It just didn't feel like it had as much of a presence honestly. There were like three missions and they were pretty far spaced out. Meanwhile void shadows kept popping up with more stuff to do. I felt like too much of the budget went into the admittably nice cinematic. Didn't help that the guy was a nigger as well.
>>
Starting this game today. Already played other owlcats games and this one looks like the class selection is kinda gimped compared to other titles or even other crpgs. Is the build variety huge? What build did you guys play with?
>>
>>734120237
I was suprised to see Dark Eldars at all, just like "Slaanesh", dark ones involve quite problematic topics such as tortures , slaves (niggers in muttmerica might get sad :( ) and sex (including abuse).
Modern day GW can't have such things that is why age of smigmar is sterilized shite, warhammer fantasy died and nu-warhammer40k centres around power of diversity and friendship.

Lex Imperialis was good but Void Shadows were amazing. People were obviously expecting more.
>>
>>734129427
what game is this?
>>
>>734129357
Doesn't really matter, past act 1 the game is piss easy, the hardest enemies are the spawn in the tutorial and a sniper rebel at the end of act 1.
It's kind of fun playing a death world pyromancer blademaster though, breaking your own legs before fights so you become untouchable and destroy every encounter on turn 1.
>>
>>734124860
As a secondary I felt the fantasy versions were used because they sounded cool and 40k were used because GW forced you to. Large massive difference right there to me.
>>
>>734129357
Build variety is less in-depth compared to say Kingmaker or WOTR. That said you can still play around with it a fair bit. Just don't expect it to cater totally toward build autism. But what >>734129747 said. Even with the difficulty rebalance in the latest patch you're not likely to run into much trouble unless you act like a total retard. Action economy gets busted later on.
>>
>>734129357
The combat is not amazing. You will likely just kill everything on turn 1 with Argenta.

Well-presented though. A lot of good lore and mostly pretty faithful stuff.

Just don't expect the endings to be any good. For anything. The endings are terrible no matter what you do or pick. Just ignore the retarded ending slides.
>>
>>734129357
theres less build variety than wrath but the combat somehow has more variety. still not much tho, as you can easily one shot everything. but its slightly more interaction than "buff then auto attack everything to death" at least
>>
Holy fucking shit why is Yrilet so fucking retarded and annoying?
>>
>>734130037
She's an autist even amongst the Eldar. There's a reason they told her to fuck off under the guise of 'following her path'.
>>
>>734129845
I kinda agree, but that's why I'm feeling conflicted. I'm not sure whether new ones are just worse or whether I just grew up with the old ones, so I'm used to them.
>>
>>734130037
Terrible characterization. Something somewhat common for the original characters.
If shes a spy hanging around nobles she should have been extremely skilled in imperial etiquette and human behavior in order to avoid raising suspicion to herself and the other eldar.

Even if you assume that none of the imperials in Janus have ever seen a remembrancer deciption of an eldar you have to assume that the trigger happy nobility would be perfectly fine killing a weird behaving mutant that doesn't show proper respect for their betters.

Idira has a similar case of "why is this WITCH COMMENER giving a FUCKING ROGUE TRADER sass when she lost the only patron she could trust"?
>>
>>734130037
Everyone is retarded. There's not a single character in the game that acts intelligently.

No it's not, Dimitrescu has massive tits and a fat ass, she's popular because she's hot. Marazhai is popular because of his unhinged personality, women get off to him murdering people and torturing them

the build variety is better than pathfinder, unironically, quality over quantity, there may be fewer classes but you can actually make them play differently from each other unlike pathfinder

I still think its fucking unbelievably retarded that Marazhai was the ebil xeno companion instead of Malice. The edgy space sneks are infinitely more trustworthy than the average edgy space dark elf.

>>734120237
I personally have become quite fond of the Deldar or more specifically humunculi aesthetics, and funny dickass betrayals they're constantly doing to each other.
Also
1.they're more open to fucking humans than craft worlders
2.unlike chaos can actually be changed to be less evil by taking up a path(usually corsair) or becoming a clown
So theoretically if you get a Deldar waifu you can theoretically fix her

>>
>>734145736
My preferable future is no new companion, but the entire DLC is just hanging out with trazyn as he shows off his cool as collection to you full of random deadly bullshit, he doesn't help you in any way and he's just following you around as like a hologram acting as a museum tour guide, and there is ALOT of dialog from him, and maybe at the end of it if he think your cool he'll give you a way to I dunno call him or send shit to him that he'll pay you for and he'll yap flat you some more

Drukhari were basically being slated to be squatted and 9th edition having a good codex + Combat patrol saved them. Now GW is rushing to actually update a range they were plotting to squat.

Well it won't happen because Owlcat already said both DLCs are going to add a companion

>>734124860
The 40k terminology was created for copyright reasons, you retard, not to enrich the setting. GW lost a lawsuit trying to sue a studio over things they never actually created, and the resulting humiliation prompted them to make original dogshit names for every single faction and in a very inorganic way start trying to force them in-universe as the common names for them.
>Stormtroopers? No, they’re the TEMPESTUS SCIONS
and most of them don’t even make any fucking sense. Why would DE call *themselves* drukhari? They see themselves as the OG Eldar because they are. “Dark Eldar” is an outside term for the knowers like the Inquisition.
TLDR it’s not trying to add flavour to the universe, it’s GW going ham with copyright.

>>734145357

But will you still love him if fixing him results in him putting on over sized squeaky shoes and honking his bulbous red nose at you every now and then?

bump
>>
>>734148778
He would have more because 95% of the people that play these games are men. BUT, just like Camellia, he would get mogged by the other romance options, minus Jae she sucks that much. And by not being a man he would lose his tremendously obsessed female fanbase that releases several pieces of fanart per week

>>
>>734146296
While I'm convinced that they won't give you a necron companion I'm also very much cold to the DLC being about a 40k celebrity like Trazyn. I kinda liked that the koronus expense was somewhat cut-off from the recent goings-on of the setting. kind of a small pond separated from the broader galactic ocean to make you feel like a big fish. And while Owlcat games are always about making the protagonist the most important person in the universe it feels somewhat masturbatory that Trazyn himself would bother to learn anything let alone interact in any way with a family line of imperial corsair
>>

Dude Im still PISS at what they did to the combat patrol, I was waiting for awhile to buy it and then when I did go I learn they stop it and replace it with some gay ass new combat patrol of homuclous or some shit

Personally, I find the shit names useful as they are typically only used by the post-2017 soft reboot crowd - making whatever dogshit opinion they're espousing easily and justifiably dismissible out of hand.
>>
>>734129357
Less options in absolute terms but the classes have unique mechanics that make them much more meaningfully distinct from one another in terms of playstyle. No other class plays like an officer with it's extra actions, assassin can play completely differently depending on if you build it as ranged or melee and so on

>>734147172
i'm gonna guess it's the deceiver

It's still sorta wild to me they are working on another game before finishing the DLC for this.

Just a normal day as a servant to the Emprah
>>
>>734165374
That would still be considered a dogmatic action because dogmatards don't consider the consequences of empowering chaos with the souls of their enemies, only their allies.
>>
will the new DLC have a new class too?

>>734165665
most likely, the description doesn't say anything though

Aren't the Drukhari getting new models like, right now?
