@McPantsOnTheWeb@NobodyIsOurGuy If you wanna get something right, you should just do it yourself.
So I say Yes Man.
In the past I'd have argued House, but after looking at how Billionaires operate, I changed my mind.
NCR...is reinventing the wheel and Legion are too cruel for my taste.
@MaxxFeral@Fenrirtheicewo1 There's a theory or an insinuation that Unobtanium is the product of trees or something necessary for them to function.
My guess is that it's acting like a transmitter of sorts, an antenna to connect all the living beings to Eywa like a WiFi when they're not on LAN.
@Jacksonsrule They do try, but they do so in ways that benefit them or their image.
They're not looking for effective solutions — they're looking for the most profitable ones.
It can arguably be considered a laundering scheme of sorts, since a lot of the money they get from the government.
@Zelkiiro@keepheaven@JordykJordan M8, the people that make these drawings or stick stuff on top of it, have no respect for art or each other.
Even when someone makes beautiful Graffiti artwork, some mfer will paint their stuff on top of it and ruin it.
This is not art. This is vandalism.
Playing Rogue Trader helped me understand why the imperium is the way it is better than any novel. Every time I tried to apply my world morals to it, there would be unforeseen suffering caused by it down the line. And this would keep happening until I started playing by that universes rules, not my own then things started making sense. I started adapting and being able to predict outcomes by playing by it's rules. Psykers don't have to be evil to cause evil or untold damage and you don't put them down because you hate them or even for any cruelty. Often its because they can't control themselves and will eventually end up killing thousands of people.
When a planet threw me a parade I demanded the lower classes got front row seats because why wouldn't I. I wasn't born into their world, wasn't 'brainwashed' right so I can be nice. I was bringing my views in with me and in doing so they were front row seat to a chaos invasion caused just to get at me. They were closest to me because I wanted to be nice without thinking, without being logical, without seeing ten steps ahead and it got them all killed as collateral, it got the guardsmen distracted dealing with tons of civilians, where they would have been much further away from the danger and would have had a greater chance of escape had I just acted more like an imperial ruler and kept them away.
My favourite part of the game is how it teaches you, you are living and playing by their universes rules not your own and to protect humanity it needs you to be more ruthless. You start genuinely sacrifice thousands to save billions because you have to and chaos really is everywhere. The nature of their universe is unforgiving thanks to chaos, humanity can't become some noble bright empire people say they intentionally 'refuse' to be just to be evil (wrong) whilst chaos and the warp is bleeding into reality. Any person really can let it in, any person can cause a chaos incursion costing billions. It's corrupting influence is everywhere, in every dark corner and it needs constant vigilance and inquisition just to hold it back.
You begin to understand why the imperium functions the way it does when you're lacking any current way to deal with the warp as it is. It's purely out of necessity. Even if it's just a suspicion of corruption, the outcome if you leave it compared to executing a handful of potentially innocent people is untold amounts of human suffering. It's funny Tau always talk about the greater good, when that's what most of the imperiums calculous is built on. It's easy to be an advanced society when you have no connection to the warp and your people can't become corrupted, conduits and portals for it. As soon as Tau encountered the true horrors of the warp their entire fourth sphere turned imperium on each other and the tau that returned had the same outlook the imperials had because that's what the chaos infested universe needs you to become to survive it.
But people see it purely from our worlds morality and point of view and just see cruel monsters.
@StoutAGamer Could have worked with different stories set into the period of Covenant War.
Because we already know how the war will end, we can focus on how it affected certain characters that we'd grow to care about.
Still should be about war as you said tho.

@stroggster@InfiniteGrunt I mean that's still a thing, kind of.
Flynn Taggart was still court-martialed for assaulting an officer.
It's just that instead of simply refusing the order, he struck him because the officer withheld the info that there were civilians inside.
@Omegax_27 Most likely a coincidence, because style-wise it doesn't match at all. The only matching thing here is an angle, so I'm unsure whether that was even intentional.
@4w3s0m3n00b Хм...
А что если рынок инвестирует в заведомо сомнительное мероприятие, и в итоге проёбывает деньги?
Можно ли считать это провалом рынка, или же это тоже избавление от неэффективных игроков?
I will ALWAYS stand by the fact that Imperium are the good guys and they are not cruel by choice but by circumstances they were forced into
They are good becouse they're the only ones still fighting for humanity's right to exist at all. Everyone else is either actively trying to end us, feed on us, or turn us into something worse than dead. The Imperium isn't some shining beacon of virtue it's a brutal, unforgiving and a strict nightmare... but it's our nightmare to endure, and it's the only thing standing between mankind and total annihilation
If a faction is surrounded by enemies who literally want to eat, enslave, corrupt, or erase them, then extreme measures arent a choice. Not to mention that many factions would become more hostile if the Imperium became less brutal. Fear in this universe is a important tool
Maintaining psychic discipline in a galaxy where psychic mistakes get whole planets eaten is pretty important, harshness keeps worlds producing food, weapons for soldiers and new troops and religious fanaticism stabilizes morale when people face literal gods of insanity
The Imperium isnt cruel by choice its cruel because any attempt at softness leads to daemonic possession, planetary rebellion, or species-level extinction within months. Other factions cchoose cruelty because it benefits them. The Imperium inflicts cruelty becouse the galaxy punishes any attempt at mercy
@EyeOfAzuriah@JohnEmail1984 THATs what I was saying!
If you don't agree with the person, or find their views offensive then just grab your controller and make that mfer regret ever turning his console on!
She had no evidence. All her evidence was debunked with videos, pictures or audio's. As a result her stories kept changing in hopes to match the evidence that debunked her original story. Then again evidence was provided that debunked her new story.
She had nothing.
He had her on audio admitting to abusing him, admitting that he never hit her, admitting she only accused him because "they made me do it", her parents admitting on text that "she was forced to lie", ...
And here we are, still having people like yourself smearing him because he dared to expose a lying abuser.
@Shpymouse Не, а если серьёзно, то чувак скорее всего рассматривает то, насколько далеко может зайти кастомизация.
Типо, "Hello World!", но в мире видеоигр. Или как в играх с появлением возможности рисования, первое что люди рисуют это хуй.
Такая уж у нас, геймеров, культура.
