The enemies in the game are giant murder bugs and suits of armor piloted by evil space wizards. I wouldn't really classify these things are "things that look or think different" but instead "legitimate threats to my health".

thought it was kinda funny how space marine 1 is all about how titus is unusually moral, respectful and human for an ultramarine and eventually he's betrayed horrifically in part because of that
and space marine 2 has him show almost none of that humanity after getting tortured by the inquisitors for a century. People on here were going LOOK LOOK THERE'S A TRANNY ON THE WRITING STAFF but ultimately space marine 2 is both less woke than the original space marine and ultimately less interesting for it

That's right!
Villains and hypocrites, that's what the Imperium is made of!
Thankfully a few brave souls are willing to resist, to bring forth a new salvation to the souls of the enslaved!
A new strength, that comes from the heavens to liberate all!
To unlock your inner potential, and to bring you to the stars, in the company of your wondrous celestial Mother, where you deserve to be!

A prototype for this exists in the Fulgrim Horus Heresy book. There is a scene where thousands of Eldar just throw their bodies like gaunts into the marines and get mowed down. It is completely retarded and it was the last Warhammer book I read, I don't know why I let this one shit writer taint my sentiment towards GW, but it was indicative of the holistic Marine fellating they have fully solidified 40k into since.

Considering that GW's solution for game balance is "make everything into a horde army", I wouldn't be surprised they started writing fluff to reflect that.
That, and they have always wanked primarchs too hard (Until they go to chaos, then they are jobbers)

Nah it was just Titus isn't as Dogmatic as his retarded battle brother who reported him to the Inquisition because he NEEDED that +3 Dogmatic bump.
but there's also nothing wrong with being so Dogmatic because Iconoclast behavior is how you end up causing an oopsie 400 years from now when that Genestealer cult you DIDN'T completely eradicate ends up spreading. again.

It’s like they hyped it as the ultimate Emperor’s "in case of galaxy-wide heresy, break glass" moment and it ends up being "keep doing what you’re doing, bros." The whole thing read like GW wrote themselves into a corner with all that buildup and realized too late they couldn’t actually shake things up without rewriting every codex.

My mate had a theory that it had something to do with wiping out geneseed, thus destroying the Space Marines which are the biggest reason why chaos shit is happening (Thanks Horus).
He had no actual facts for it, but I thought it was cool. Better than the GK somehow fighting against the Custards.

The idea is that the Emperor has been split into a number of different shards, and shards can be in opposition to one antoher as proven by Magnus' shards. The thronebound Big E has a kooky plan in the works, the Terminus Decree is for instructing the GKs to prevent other Empy shards from screwing up the throne E's plans, as that is something that Malcador thought might happen.

I didn't mean it wouldn't work for tactical reasons (though that too). I meant for moral reasons. Doing Doom Slayer glory kills on Orks, Tyranids, and Daemons is 100% guiltless but for Tau or Eldar? That would be God of War levels of villain protagonist

Not the best example, as it was a society that integrated xenos that had some connection to chaos. It was a weapon from their museum, Anatheme, that was used to mortally wound Horus and start his corruption by powers of the warp.

Diasporex - yeah, they only wanted to be left the fuck alone on their starships.
