Warhammer Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader Pre-Release Thread [GAME RELEASED, GO TO NEW THREAD]

[Camel]

Just fyi, achievements and the season pass have been leaked. It's a couple of expansions, first one is about expanding the activites and quests you have in your castle, I mean voidship, the other expansion is more story fluff. You also get a couple extra companions with them...
Please be excited.

Both Kingmaker and WotR DLCs were lackluster.

 

[kangaxx]

I've deliberately ignored this game until now. Any good?

 

[Dishonoredbr]

So you can’t romance the sister for the sole and noble purpose of breeding more loyal servants of the Imperium but you can hook up with either of the xenos, wtf.

Thank the emperor then they didn’t add kroot and tau like i’ve seen some degenerates request.

Yrliet's "romance" is not really a romance , it's platonic thing. You probably not gonna bang her.

 

[Jermu]

all romance options (so far at least)

• Jae, female smuggler (partner for both male/female PCs)
• Cassia, female navigator (male partner only)
• Heinrix, male interrogator (female only)
• Yrliet, female aeldari (male/female platonic relationship)
• Marazhai, male drukhari (male/female)

So the least degenerate route is to bang Heinrix

Why would the Eldar even have Human-compatible gear down there? They are xenos.

Waaaay back in the early editions there were human/eldari characters, including at least one space marine (!). I never understood the RPG half-elf craze beyond mechanics, but it's apparently a huge fetish thing.

Of course, all that has been scrubbed and I don't think there's any official material that mentions if eldari have compatible sex organs, or if they just have brain sex or something. Plenty of non-official "documentation" tho

Wait, it's actually spelled Aeldari? Fucking decline.

It’s GeeDubs dog Latin and copyright obsession. GW can’t really copyright Imperial Guard and Eldar is Tolkien’s name for the Elves which they stole. GW dropped a frivolous lawsuit against a female writer with the story named Space Marine after a backlash from its own fans.

 

[Aarwolf]

Hope we can contribute to Commorragh by sending them some cattle. <3

I hate it spoiling it for you, but

oopsie

you are sent there as some cattle.

It used to be Eldar but gw couldn’t copy right that which is why they changed a bunch of names like Imperial guard becoming astra militarum.

Tbh i‘d argue it is one of the least forced because eldar still works as a bastardisation of the eldar tongue when spoken by filthy “monkeighs”.

As for eldar and human compatibility…Cant remember if it was mentioned in xenology but clearly the dark eldar dont seem to have a problem. Or maybe they just dont care if the parts dont click and that just makes it more fun for them…

Half-Elves used to be the rpg's Mary Sue race, as they have all of the advantages of the elves and are still human enough to be relatable.
Not sure what happens nowadays in DnD now that there are dungeons for wheelchair-using adventurers and modules about working as baristas.

but clearly the dark eldar dont seem to have a problem. Or maybe they just dont care if the parts dont click and that just makes it more fun for them…

It probably results in nothing, and it's "just" regular rape before they do something worse next.

The spoilers imply there are multiple endings, as expected, including some somewhat obscure stuff, such as the

Spoiler

Cursed rings whose name escapes me now that turn you into a monster. Probably related to one of the endings.

It's in character for deldar to fuck a squig, so that's probably not saying much.

Another reason that anybody with a brain will instakill the deldar companion at the first opportunity. Imagine allowing one to live, much less giving it a bunk on your ship.

For the uninitiated, this is a squig:

IIRC, in the pnp, having a xeno, especially a troublesome one like an Ork, nevermind a DEldar, is a literal drain on your resources, as it takes a penalty on your morale stat of your ship, 1 point of your total crew members (because the Deldar had to torture people to live), and so on. Sadly, the numbers were too small to be anything more than a nuisance... Although the rules pretty much told you that having a DEldar is inviting him to backstab you sooner than later. Or stumble upon a particularly close-minded Inquisitor.
I dunno if this game will make it a problem for you to have a DEldar.

Both of owlcat's games have had points of no return where several of your party members either try to kill you or each other. It seems kind of naive to assume they're suddenly going to pussy out about stuff like this in a setting where such things are even more hardline and essential to the theme.

 

[Johnny Biggums]

I'm giving it a pass because of all the strong wahmen I'm seeing. It's inconsistent of me, because I've happily played plenty of games filled with them, but something about the militia sister's grand entrance was just so tiresome. The game overall looks mid, so it didn't take much to turn me off. Honestly I'm probably done gaming forever, at least until Archaelund releases in 6 weeks.

They should add mechanics to romances. Dice rolls for pick-up lines, failing during sex etc. Stats influence dick size and endurance.

They should hire the F.A.T.A.L. developers.

 

[Tyranicon]

Roll to pull dick out of pants.

Nat 1. Fuck. Gets caught in zipper. Somehow.

Roll to play it off cool.

Result is 4. You scream like a little school girl.

None of the sisters of the Order of the Sacred Rose want to suck your now bloody dick. In fact, they are recovering from the shock of you crashing your atmospheric craft into the convent and are readying their bolters and flamers on you.

Roll charisma to say something that'll save your bacon.

Nat 20. You give an eloquent and stirring speech about how your penis was accidently blessed by a long lost relic of the Emperor and that only speedy coitus will prevent it from falling to the Ruinous Powers.

DM rolls 2 for insight check.

You have crashlanded on a very stupid convent. All 10 of the sisters present and their Prioress immediately begin to disrobe.

Roll for sexual perform- wait, there's another craft incoming...

It also crashes into the convent, causing rocks to fall from the ceiling to crush you into unconsciousness.

In your last moments before the darkness takes you, you hear

"CIAPHAS CAIN, HERO OF THE IMPERIUM!!!! Hello ladies, I seem to have gotten my cock accidently blessed by-"

That fucker.

 

[Cyberarmy]

I'm ready to purge xenos and heretics.


Maybe after a few patches...

 

[RegionalHobo]

That is a strange question. Gay relationships are also Xenos but that does not stop them..
