Answer me, Astarte. If the Imperium of Man is so great, why are there no good Warhammer 40k games anymore?

Because every warhammer game is either spess mahrenes or tertiary games like space hulk or battlefleet gothic. It's getting that they won't take risks like letting you play a guardsman or traitor guardsman/chaos cultist.

Because Fantasy is better than Sci-Fi.

Never played DoW 3. Explain to me how this green guy won

sounds like great fun, especially the crafting which is something I would normally hate but Orks just have to believe it works for it to do so, so you could make anything you liked

He got into a massive scrap and came out alive. I think he may even leave with a piece of the spear or somesuch, so he even has a trophy.
By Ork standards, that's a win.
By comparison everyone else just spent a lot of effort for little payoff.

You will NEVER get any game featuring Orks as the main characters because it wouldn't appeal to the lowest common denominator normalfag who has to play as humans in every setting ever.

ok guys I've got an idea for a 40k game
you play as a space marine, ultramarines
you fight orks but what if there's a bigger threat? chaos

I can dream can't I.
And while they certainly were not massive successes, the Styx games sold decently.

Same reasons would make lost and the damned style chaos gameplay fun. I want to see all the crazy industrial tools modified into weapons. Like nurgle chem/ooze sprayers or mining lasers jerry rigged into the lasgun equivalent of LMGS.

Why does the bigger great has always to be Chaos? Why can't the final boss be A Hive Fleet or some big scary Ork like in the War of the Beast?
Better yet, subvert expectations and make so that the the Genestealers were behind it all in the end

Guilliam said it's okay to have an eldar waifu.

Attached: Blood ravens eldar gf.jpg (894x800, 663K)

ok another idea for a unique 40k game
what if you're a terminator in a space hulk fighting genestealers?

Were there any good ones? I always wanted to delve into that universe more than just the books

Does Slaanesh have dibs on every single Eldar soul or can they go to other chaos gods when they die?

DoW 1 and 2 plus expansions, particularly the solo campaigns
Space Marine is ok
Those are pretty definite answers
Beyond that some pretty old games might be alright such as Chaos Gate.

Because videogames are for virgins. True chaos Chad's are busy drinking blood and fucking tentacle monsters with pussy for foreheads

Go stroke your topknot, Abby.

By their nature, unless killed by an aspect of any other god - any daemon or servant - they go to Slaanesh.
Always.
Unless they have a soulstone. Special case being the Solitaire of an Harlquin troupe who will have his soul bartered for by the Laughing God, since he does not have a soulstone but may yet be saved.

Was the Mechanicus game any good?

yeah, solid 7/10
it would be an 8 but it gets quite repetitive in the late game

>why are there no good Warhammer 40k games anymore?
Battlefleet 2 and Mechanicus was good.

Pretty fun, I'm halfway through my first playthrough but it's getting a bit easy

because games workshop is retarded and they don't want to support AAA 40k games because they get the idea that it'll compete with their plastic shit yet they somehow manage to give the license out to literal who's who make mobile tier shit

What game is this?

battlefleet gothic 1-2,space marine, dow1-2, mechanicus.

fuck you Abaddon

they're better when chaos is not involved, chaos is the worst thing about both warhammers (rats not included)

>why are there no good Warhammer 40k games anymore?

wait, did they take DOW off the storefronts?

>Why can't the final boss be A Hive Fleet

Literally DoW 2.

Because both tabletop and videogame 40k are realm of shovelware.

If they make a good game with proper Dev time and budget it will overshadow the tabletop.

Battlefleet Gothic 2. Even the Chaos campaign is fun as fuck

because we're all waiting for that sweet Total War 40k money shot. Ahhh, it's gonna be glorious, just like Total War Warhammer is turning out to be.

>As in all things warhammer, older IS better.

Well, the 90s were the peak of all things Warhammer, but 40k has fared much better and gotten gutted way less than WHFB, which they literally squatted to death, faction by faction, until there were barely any left.

>Total War 40k

Never ever.

Is it worth if I don't know/care about Warhammer? The screenshot intrigued me

It's a good game but I'm not sure how great an introduction to the setting it is.

Also it would be racist to blacks

That's, like, homophobic AND not inclusive.

fantasy is fucking retarded and im glad its dead

God I just want an IG game that captures the feel of playing as the IG in UA and sending 4 squads of 32 per squad conscripts in the front of the charge and watching all of them die in 5 seconds just so your regular guardsmen could fire off 1 round of grenade launcher volley safely.
