Maybe... it would have seem more confident if all the factions and their minis were put up immediately. I dont mean like. Special new stuff. Keep that back a little bit but at least have some other old shit on sale. Generate noise or hype at least.
The rest of that in regards to tomb kings. Yeah that makes sense too.
... I dunno. Should it have been greenskins instead?
"yeah. i dont need to say anything about female space marines. we got enough talk on that. imma close twitter for the night"
and then
i see the same tired old fucking take pop up on my feed. so here i am
here are two arguments that pop up EVERY.SINGLE.TIME. and it bugs me because, surprisingly, its offensive to THE LORE. ironically. yes. the lore...the thing that is always harped on about.
those two things are
-"we already have SoB"
and
-something something male biology
"we already have SoB"
SoB are not the same as Space Marines.
thematically AND BY THE LORE they are very distinct entities that operate on different themes.
SoB are about the powers of devotion and zeal. hence the heavy fire theme and penance theme.
its like a child's understanding of what is dark and grim.
YEAH. just uhhh slaps some SCRATCHY effect all over stuff. and uhhh WAR. yes. AND PEOPLE DYING. SO DARK.
DONT FORGET THE FUCKING BARB WIRE. YOU SEE THE BARB WIRE?
DONT FORGET THE RANDOM CLIP OF GUY DOING HEROINE?!?
also the weird premise that...all of these things are like something like...society doesnt talk about anymore or something cos it hurts people's feelings? huh? what? like...its taboo unspeakable lore?
