so true

Heresy totally lost my interest. I'm back to playing 40k 2nd Edition...

Normally i agree with 95 percent of what your saying, and I'll probably agree with 95 percent of this one to, but your opinion on helldivers difficulty is omega bad, first of all, only like 1 weapon is worse then it was on release, with every single enemy unit used to be a lot stronger because no armor was able to provide any amount of protection, combined with massive nerfs to damage from some enemy's the reason rocket devistators were so feared is because each rocket was able to oneshot you in heavy explosive reistance armor, the only effect that could save you was 50/50 not dying armor, at launch this game was so much harder it's not even funny, and this goes for both bots and bugs, bugs have recived less nerfs as they were always easier, but they are certainly still easier now then launch, largely just because shriekers are hunters if they didn't have to land

Justice for the Atramentar.

Great video. I honestly hope that GW forgets about Heresy and leaves it alone; I'd much rather have to use bit-websites and other websites to make miniatures that they don't make anymore. It sucks that, a couple of months prior to 2.0 (and before that) they slowly started to remove kits that could be used, like the mkiii ten man tactical squad, old contemptor dready, etc. All of this was done for money, and the writing also reflects this, so there's really no point in buying their miniatures. Maybe one day the passion from 1.0 could come back...

Nothing worse than a narcissistic rules team... yikes. Not good for player-designer relations.

The loss of Allan Blyth was far more damaging to games workshop than anyone could have imagined.

So ahhh i want to play IF only because i played Crimson Fists in 40K and I've had Alexis Polex on my shelf for nearly 5yrs. I am not a fedora wearer

The efforts GW put into AoS in order to salvage it from its launch disaster has taken its toll one must say. All the creative sculptors and rules writers basically go to buff AoS up leaving others even 40K in poor maintanance. GW is just pretending everything is fine they really need to pull some resources into other gamings systems aside from AoS. (I'm pretty sure there is only one or less than one moderator in charge of HH rules and that guy may also have to support boxed games like epic or necromunda

Helldivers was always trash

People say Space Marine 2 will bring new blood into the hobby. I beg to differ. When they pull up to their local GW or hobby shop and see that the price of a few minis is equal to the game they just bought they're going to turn right around and leave. And that's not considering all the paint and tools you need to get up and running. I know. It happened to me. GW sucks at making first impressions. Always have.

Some people are proud of being long-time customers. Personally I'm proud of not having bought a GW product in several years.

Helldivers 2 player base is down 97% due to their screw ups

The size of the 40K errata and FAQ vs the size of actual core rules section of 40K is a crazy ratio.

I think Contekar really exemplified this idea for me. Everyone wanted Atramentar, it was obvious. Instead we got a unit that nobody asked for with crappy rules that seem almost designed to piss people off.

Fun police here, we’re going to need you to make a video about the few things you like about AoS’s world. In order to balance out the salt intake you see, completely procedural. On a serious note though that could be an interesting, if brief video.

Remember when Bungie would release a Halo game and it would be near perfect and remain so

Often in popular 'longtail'/Live Service computer games i find the developers have more success bringing weak things up than smacking the strong things down. I think this is what Heresy Needs, Stop releasing crap units with page long special rules that do nothing! Invictus Suzerain wouldn't even need a points increase if other Legions had anything close to as good (and cheap).

NGL I'm disappointed this isn't a video ripping the piss out of the new Coteaz model.

Algorithm brought this back I guess "I'm not going to include old WHFB stuff (for Cities), that's lazy" "Maybe it needs some of the old WHFB stuff" Really makes me think.

FYI: AoS and 30k have similar number of Facebook users (100k to 115k), but Reddit users is 222k to 86k in favor of AoS (40K sits at 902k redditards, Warhammer Fantasy at 98k, and The Old World 8k)

Did Gw mess up 40k core rules or putting minimal effort in HH? Both, both is good. GW just doesn't care about rules in general. The fact they don't consider Mantic, warlord, etc competition is starting to bite them in the ass.

The solution is obviously more Sons of Horus characters.

Same problem as with most products: the people who make it never actually use it.

In terms of if they’ve stuffed the 40k rules or not, or rhe HH isn’t putting effort, it’s both. What you’re seeing is what people are calling 10.5th edition, as they did a complete rules overhaul to address many of the core-rules based pain points. People are still judging them, but it’s a definitive improvement. The FAQ before was around 15~ pages, but it had less illustrations as it didn’t need them. Does it fix 10th edition? No, but that’s because the issues i find in 10th are a much wider problem that isn’t really fixable without rebooting the game, *again*.

What's really funny to me is it seems 40k has ground to a halt as well. There's been a slew of models that scream deadlines and burnout. Codexes are mediocre or downright terrible. Constant releases has ruined creativity. The rules are seeing worthwhile updates and fix attempts, but i think that has more to do with the US division pushing competitive events and being actually present to see "playtest" data. Heresy definitely seems like an inherited passion project that nobody there has as much drive for. They keep chugging along with it, but they simply don't have the resources and people to make up for the lack of passion.

I think the big core rules faq for 40k with the pictures is because they intoduced a new mechanic and had to show how it worked. I think its called pivot or something like that.

Playtesting?! Didn't they guy who made the hours heresy box game admit he only had a weekend to playtest?

The money element is why I want this potential edition upgrade to be available as a free PDF; practically every book needs fixing but those books are expensive. By all means release them in physical form with 'new edition' on the front but they should also be free PDFs for those that spent over a hundred quid on broken books.

I flatly refuse to believe that HH 2.0 was playtested at all. I don't mean that they ignored the external playtesters' feedback, or that they playtested it themselves but in some weird environment that no other players use - there is just no evidence at all that anybody played the game before releasing it, and plenty of evidence that they can't have done.

If only that was the only problem GW has. With the exception of beautiful AoS minis, they are fumbling every other IP they have it seems.

My kingdom for them to unfuck Helldivers.

Agreed on the awful world of Age of Wokemar; everyone in my gaming group ditched 40k (after, what, 2 years?) for the new edition of AoS, and I'm sitting here, already bogged down with Heresy and 40k Guard/Traitor Guard, struggling to find anything to get into lorewise for AoS. ("Age of Wokemar" may be a bit much. The thing's, like, at most 20% w0k3)

I think you hit the nail on the head with popularity. 40k is the cash cow, AoS is what they want to push for heritage and they're trying to crack it so it gets popular and HH is left on stair for scraps of attention and tweaks rather than the balance overhaul the players want.

Well I agree. The first time I saw Wolves rules in book7 I was like "how the hell am I to create a list out of this?" Took me a lot of reading to understand those rules. They were pretty counter intuitive at times.

Possibly one of the interns is related to a major investor, we will give them 30k, those guys will buy anyway and we dont want them touching 40k or AoS

Helldivers 2 needs to get it shit together I couldnt agree more.

Macca is back

Knew where the Helldivers analogy was going. It's so frustrating to me how obvious it is that the people in charge of this game simply don't play it. It would be so simple for them to bring the community in to fix the game so quickly, but they're so stupid they don't see jt

A company who showed how to implement player feedback and watch the playerbase is Niohs creator Team Ninja. I took part in the alpha of the first Nioh game and after finishing the demo they provided a really long survey. This was really awesome to see even if I was sceptical, as it was not the first time I saw a survey ignored afterwards (looking at you APB online....) Long story short, they took the surveys, hours of gameplay behavior from Alpha users and tweaked the game in the direction they felt the players would enjoy amd they did. If someone is interestet they also have a GDC talk were they talked about it how they applied common game mechanics and changed them to make them more enjoyable to players. Its called "Nioh: Talking with Samurai" I think, go check it out. This is a talk and method every game designer should at least keep in mind no matter what type of game you are doing. In the end the product is for the player and they need to like it to make it successfull in the long term.

I just sit here sometimes completely perplexed at how GW are releasing models that look nothing like how they’re supposed to, multiple HH characters look nothing like their artistic depictions, with the amount of official inspiration to draw from why isn’t it happening. It’s like there’s a complete disconnect, it’s like the people making the models aren’t reading the books to get a feel of the character to create a pose that suits and the art to match how they’re supposed to look.

The dark lord returns.

as a dyslexic I find myself asking this question so often. I think the AlGorerwhythem must have piped this to me because it hears me sayin it all of the time. so this is awkward...how you doing man?

Bump

Babe, wake up, Outer circle just uploaded….

Hiii I’m the first comment!!!

Idk about the chain glaives but the dg power scythe fit perfectly with the curent mark 3 armor. if you add the additional mk3 gauntlet parts it’s almost seamless

I like four turns. Games finish so quickly, its great.
