Computer Gaming / Re: 40k Custodes - Who here ha...
Last post by W8taminute - April 22, 2024, 03:38:34 PMI agree that life is too short to get upset about dumb stuff like this however...
Notice how clever they are to immediately de-humanize the complainers before they even get a chance to complain by calling them neckbeards. A tactic that genocidal maniacs use when it comes to making the target seem less than human so that it makes it easier to wipe out, or in this case ridicule. Same tactics.
By playing this off and saying "it's no big deal" gives these oppressors a green light to continue this sort of tactic. Look at what they called SW fans who criticized Disney Star Wars. They called them "man babies" in an attempt to tell the rest of the uneducated masses oh look at the poor cry babies who don't like our version of Star Wars.
They can all go fornicate under consent of king themselves.
If we don't resist this or at least call out evil when we see it it will only continue to get worse and worse.

Last post by Grim.Reaper - April 22, 2024, 01:29:54 PMCertainly wasn't movie of the year or must see by any stretch, but was "watchable" and had no regrets in seeing it, wife actually like it more than me. Do think it could be have been better for me if it was more focused on the war but oh well.

Last post by al_infierno - April 22, 2024, 12:16:10 PMI don't get what the big deal is. GW rewrites 40K lore all the time. They completely rewrote Necron lore, so why does it matter if they update one of the factions to have women or whatever?
As for the article, seems like your typical "journalist" looking to rile people up. Life is too short to get angry about dumb stuff like this.

The story has some tense moments, but overall it just seems to drift. I really can't recommend it.
Maybe when it gets to streaming, and the 1000 other choices you have just don't seem to catch your interest...then you might try it.

Last post by Jarhead0331 - April 22, 2024, 09:23:30 AMI think there is a place for diversity that fits neatly within the existing lore. For instance, the Salamanders are black. The White Scars are Asian/Mongolian. The Adepta Sororitas are all, of course, women. Many agents within the Officio Assassinorum and Inquisition are women, as are many sanctioned psykers, Rogue Traders and navigators. This works with the lore without feeling forced or imposed. Once they start changing lore to benefit notions of diversity and inclusion is where you piss people off (no, not just the "neckbeards") and start diluting the lore that is organic and "believable" and that has been developed over many decades at this point. It seems totally unnecessary and forced.
Bad for the entire IP in my view.

Last post by Gusington - April 22, 2024, 09:17:14 AMFor the record I do not have a neckbeard. But I do love me some 40k. Maybe on a more casual level, but I still do love it.
