  2. I got a question ( anyone who knows Warhammer) if the warp is where all the souls goes when you die does that mean if the god emperor ever really died from his throne malfunctioning would that mean his soul would go to the warp and suffer with everyone else? Sorry if my question is confusing

  3. I would say a key point you missed was the penances you do to gain insignias. I think people would be interested on what they are. Kuz I mean come on there pretty cool. Yes some of them are just words or sentences to live by in the emporium but some also have deeper meaning.

  4. i disagree about the traitor guard being chaos undivided, i do believe that evidence shown in the snippets from the "broadcasts" on fatshark's channel seem to elude too the guard bringing the plagues with them which suggests thay are aligned with the Grandfather himself

  5. Just pointing out that it seems that the reason why AI is so strictly banned is indeed because of the rebellion of the "Iron Men" at the end of the Dark Age of Technology, but it runs a bit deeper than that.

    The corrupting influence of Chaos is ever-present, everywhere, all the time. This is also the reason why faith in the Emperor and strength of will are necessary virtues among the people of the Imperium, to avoid the whispers of daemonic powers influencing the populace.

    An AI, however, has no living will, and therefore, no defense against corruption by Chaos.
    Presumably, even if an AI was good by nature, almost as soon as it becomes self-aware, the beings in the Immaterium will sense it and easily corrupt it.

  6. I'm hoping for playable Underhive gangers, Scum, Bounty Hunters, Death Cultists, Commissars, Sisters Repentia and maybe minor Heretek's. Also, a wide and varied arsenal would be great. I don't know about the rights issues, but there was a shotgun in Dark Heresy called the Meat-hammer that I've always wanted to see. The other ideas I have I just don't think are doable in this game.

  7. I'm guessing the reason why Nurgle is used a lot in games is because he has the easiest and widest array of enemies to pick from. Khorne wouldn't exactly hold back and just throw small enemies. He'd probably toss extremely boss-like levels of enemies as 'fodder' probably not something a squad of 4 men can take. Tzeentch… Are you REALLY fighting Tzeentch? lmao Slaanesh you'd probably need an R18 rating for the game. lol just my opinion tho!

  8. I really hope they add a Tempestus Scion and Adeptas Arbites Class or at least Uniform to the game. I bet the Arbites voicelines would be interesting. Either having to work with criminals or being a former Arbites turned criminal him/herself.

  9. Hey Wes, unrelated request here. Can you do a “year in review” type of video since it’s the near the end of the year? As someone who has recently discovered your channel (loving your videos btw), it would be nice to get a summary of how much your channel has grown, where you find yourself now, and where you see the channel going next year. I bet that would get you some more traction too. I have recently discovered a few random youtubers that I like because they made similar videos that got fed into the YouTube algorithm. Wouldn’t have discovered them otherwise.

    Keep up the great work! Very obvious you put a lot of time and effort into these. Great production value, great dialogue. Love the long form videos exploring a faction.

    And don’t forget to not get burnt out!
