Welcome to the largest gaming community on Lemmy! Discussion for all kinds of games. Video games, tabletop games, card games etc.

Rules

1. Submissions have to be related to games

Video games, tabletop, or otherwise. Posts not related to games will be deleted.

This community is focused on games, of all kinds. Any news item or discussion should be related to gaming in some way.

2. No bigotry or harassment, be civil

No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.

We are here to talk and discuss about one of our passions, not fight or be exposed to hate. Posts or responses that are hateful will be deleted to keep the atmosphere good. If repeatedly violated, not only will the comment be deleted but a ban will be handed out as well. We judge each case individually.

3. No excessive self-promotion

Try to keep it to 10% self-promotion / 90% other stuff in your post history.

This is to prevent people from posting for the sole purpose of promoting their own website or social media account.

4. Stay on-topic; no memes, funny videos, giveaways, reposts, or low-effort posts

This community is mostly for discussion and news. Remember to search for the thing you're submitting before posting to see if it's already been posted.

We want to keep the quality of posts high. Therefore, memes, funny videos, low-effort posts and reposts are not allowed. We prohibit giveaways because we cannot be sure that the person holding the giveaway will actually do what they promise.

5. Mark Spoilers and NSFW

Make sure to mark your stuff or it may be removed.

No one wants to be spoiled. Therefore, always mark spoilers. Similarly mark NSFW, in case anyone is browsing in a public space or at work.

6. No linking to piracy

Don't share it here, there are other places to find it. Discussion of piracy is fine.

We don't want us moderators or the admins of lemmy.world to get in trouble for linking to piracy. Therefore, any link to piracy will be removed. Discussion of it is of course allowed.

Does anyone know if this will have any story hooks whatsoever to Rogue Trader? Because if so, I'm compelled to play that one first, but then this becomes a scheduling problem for me.

I have RT and it’s already a scheduling problem – It’s a beast of a game (many hours) from what I hear.

I think I just hit 80 hours and finally made it to chapter 3. It's definitely more than I bargained for, especially being an older gamer with less time on hand. I'm still determined to finish the damn thing. Still worth it as the story and gameplay are both compelling.

I doubt they will connect as I'm fairly certain they take part in different sections of the galaxy

Thanks. I know nothing of Warhammer other than the stuff that took inspiration from it.

I think you'll enjoy either game really if you end up liking the setting. They are great ways to get introduced as most other options (besides books)focus just on gameplay with setting and story being an afterthought.

You know what we need in a world of increasing authoritarianism? Franchises that initially satirized fascism before being a reason for their fanbase to fetishize it
