I haven’t checked in on this game since around launch. Anyone want to bring me up to speed on what’s happening? I gather the latest expansion pack is priced differently than prior DLC?
Also, that line about discussion being a privilege seems icky.

Yeah, Sure. Way to much hero worship and storylines where the genetically pure supersoldiers of the empire are the good guys to be a parody of fascism.
They aren’t the good guys. A lot (too much if you ask the community) of the fiction is told from the perspective of the imperium/space Marines, but that doesn’t make them the good guys.
They go around saying things like “The rewards of tolerance are treachery and betrayal.” They clearly are not meant to be the good guys, even in their own stories.
The problem is media literacy is so poor that far too many people look at quotes like that and think “that’s a good point”. Even the creators have put out press releases about how all the fascists are missing the point.
That’s an absurdly surface level examination.
You sadly did nothing to deepen my understanding. But there were luckily other. You can now tear into me for not using google or something…
I think you might be taking this internet thing a little too seriously. We all have misunderstandings about stuff but it’s not good to stubbornly insist that you know what you’re talking about despite clearly never having actually looked in to the material. That’s the extent of my tearing in. But you are right in that I should do better about actually saying things of substance instead of trying to be snide all the time.
There are no good guys in 40k, only various flavors of evil. And for bonus points this has nothing to do with 40k.
Protagonists aren’t always the good guys. Anyone would tell you there are no good guys in 40k and everyone lives a brutal life under eternal war, showing the absurdity of facism.
