Thread 96949629

People who claim to like shit like 40k but hate the concept of grimdark outside of the aesthetic need to be killed. This includes people who use the term "grimderp" to describe anything that portrays their favorite faction as anything less than heroic.

That's why I like the Tau desu. They're the least shitty faction but they still have their darker authoritarian tendencies, and most importantly they're also the smallest faction, with only some 300 worlds, making them only .03% the size of the Imperium. For ever Gue'vesa living a relatively comfortable life in the Tau Empire, there are over 3,000 Imperial citizens living in darkness and misery in the Imperium, and who knows how many more humans living in the nightmarish realms of Chaos.

OH MY FUCKING GOD JUST POST YOUR FUCKING MINIS ALREADY YOU FUCKING TOURIST

Ohohoho when we go door to door killing grimdark haters you're gonna be amongst them

Retarded

>>96950090
You are larping so pathetically

>>96949629 (OP)
Grimdark, outside of aesthetic, is juvenile garbage for mentally stunted cunts. Hope that helps.

>he hasn't read Peter Fehervari

>Peter Fehervari
Shit sucks and is, as mentioned, juvenile garbage for mentally stunted cunts.

>>96950363
Will you still be calling it juvenile garbage when you are forced to witness your heroes (GW executives) have their throats slit open in front of Warhammer World? Making 40k grimdark again will require an extreme show of force.

>>96949629 (OP)
>>96950090
Without posting models your opinion on gatekeeping is meaningless.

>>96950434
Gatekeeping? Who said anything about gatekeeping?

>>96950399
>your heroes (GW executives)
Lol. Lmao even.

Readcels when confronted with the fact that they have negative hobby skills

>>96949629 (OP)
This is so specific and out of nowhere. This feels like a thread where you just lost an argument on discord and came here to bitch and moan. For that reason I am going to say you are wrong, the people who ass-blasted you are the protagonist chads, and that you should make this thread your suicide note.

>>96949629 (OP)
>People should die because they play pretend wrong.

>>96949629 (OP)
You missed the general.

>>96950784
This was worthy of its own thread. The world need to know that I am not tolerating this anymore.

Are you retarded?

>>96949629 (OP)
I actually agree. It's the whole "But Gorlock Soulflayer would NEVER use a racial slur or disrespect women!" kind of thing.
It can feel bizarre, sometimes, how certain 'people' want to get into 40K but want to change the setting to make it more PG-13. It's the same people who think that Chaos is full of misunderstood antiheroes instead of really, really evil motherfuckers.

>>96951116
Funny, I have the opposite problem where tards like OP can't stand the idea of Chaos not being one-dimensional cartoon characters.

>>96951212
Of course they're one-dimensional. They're unknowable, bizarre, ancients gods of evil. There's no room to really get to know them or explore other facets of their personality, and they quickly abandoned any pretense of the "good sides of chaos" theme because it was fucking stupid.

>>96951212
Anyone who posts these sorts of images needs to have my dick shoved up their ass. That includes you.

>>96951460
I was under the impression that anon spoke more about the people who turn to chaos, not the chaos gods themselves. There's room for subtlety and doubt when some renegade planet head honcho finds out his new allies wearing funny spiky armor are a bit more than he's happy to chew, instead of going 'meh I guess it's nonstop murderorgy with tentacles from now on'.

>>96951515
>not the chaos gods themselves
Eh, even the Gods shouldn't be that black and white.
After all, they are the embodiment of the Galaxy's emotions and thoughts, so being completely EVIL with zero redeeming qualities would mean there was none of that in the materium to begin with.

>>96951515
I mean even the 'agnostic' Chaos dudes are horrible fucking people. Talos and his merry band of murderers skulk through the stars flaying people and go "We're totally not Chaos worshippers."
Argel Tal had a demon in his soul and committed horrible atrocities (he personally mutilated and sacrificed astropaths) while going "I'm just following orders" the entire time while simping over Cyrene.

Genre autists who post on TV tropes need to be killed alongside them. Someone can like grim stories, dark stories, and stories which are grim and dark, while also rejecting the fagginess of a genre called "grimdark." No review of Cormac McCarthy's ouevre ever needed to stoop to calling him grimdark.

>>96949629 (OP)
I hate the concept of grimdark because it's a fake marketing buzzword and isn't functionally different from normal dark fantasy.

>>96951751
>implying
Reddit McCarthy always cucks out at the last second and throws in some mumbo jumbo about le human spirit and god and gnosis or whatever.

>b-buh my guys are the REAL good guys of 40k! If you don’t jerk off to the Emperor every night in real life you are an evil heretic!!!
So glad evilchads don’t have this problem. I pick the evil faction so I can be evil.

>>96949669
It's funny how some tau players get into a hissy fit when lore revealed the etherals were mind controlling and not hecking wholesome goodies.

>>96952611
Eh, even with mind control the Tau are still by far the least worst faction in the game.

>>96949629 (OP)
No, you're just a whiney retarded faggot.

Just because something is grim and dark, doesn't mean it can't also be fucking retarded, ie grimderp.

>>96952648
Report to your local commissar anon
