When the Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader was released, we received a very interesting Rogue Trader set. Due to the upcoming release of Void Shadows DLC for this game it would be nice if we could get Death Cult cosmetics.
I understand that this theme is strictly limited not only to a certain class - fanatic, but also to the female gender. But in connection with the fact that now we can change the gender of our characters (body types), maybe, at least as an experiment, you could try to do this?
As an additional argument - take a look at recent releases of asian games with a large player base thanks not only to the gameplay but also to “interesting” female costumes (if you know what I mean).
Other classes can get costumes based on the Ministorum Assasinorum theme.
I am not calling for hypersexualization of female characters, but only for them to wear the costumes that they already and rightfully have in the background of this universe.
It’s normal (and beautiful) for a female character to be feminine and it’s not normal to have the disproportionate male torso (for them) that many skins give us.
Today we have at best 2-3 skins that can literally slightly hint at female proportions. Most of skins are gender neutral. But there are skins with a definitely male body type (yes, they are available for both sexes, but they looks ugly on women).
(Personally, for this reason I had to remove the female psyker character and create a male one)
So why not release good-looking female skins?
I’m sure you’ll make a ton of money from this and grow your player base, and then after a while maybe we’ll get a Repentia set.)
this seems like a long and wandering post asking for a better looking female body type specifically for a single set of cosmetics, which isn’t how the cosmetics work. you look at the plain janes of the empire and face reality!
Not as long and not as wandering as it seems to me.
I would`t like this text to be a set of unreasonable desires, so I gave, as briefly as I could, some relevant arguments.
Considering FS released a dark elf and necromancer to fight alongside a dwarf for the old world, I don’t see why they cannot add skins related to the 40k universe. We are on a ship that deals in unsanctioned trading so there can be a half-handed lore tie to this and a comment from morrow about people playing dress up on the ship, the integrity of the Mourningstar is already shaky considering there is a smuggler dealing to prisoners in plain sight.
Well for sure there would be no way to say that lorewise they couldn’t introduce them. But I don’t understand why the comparison to the Dark Elf (which imo isn’t that much of a problem) or the Necromancer
A Dwarf wouldn’t fight alongside Elgi or something undead, besides Gotrek, especially if they talk about beards.
The comparison just shows FS already delivered unique characters that can put aside differences and fight together.
A character in 40k following a heretical cult I’m sure wouldn’t go over well. And at the end of the day it would be cosmetic which no one has to comment on in-game. Lets just say most players in Darktide would rather hear the OST than any one conversation happening over the vox channel.
Do you consider the death cult to be heretical?
Generally, no, but Death Cults can be terrible. It is in this assumption that they can be some of the most hidden chaos worshippers. For the good of humanity, they say.
Necrophagic Cults on the other hand…
Dwarf fighting alongside an Elf has happened before. And they had time to fight alongside each other.
Also it’s the End Time. Elf fighting alongside Dwafs isn’t that strange.
Death Cult aren’t specified as Chaos. They can be chaosites. But so can any Imperial organisation
True it’s the End times, but dark elves and necromancers fighting alongside dwarf is still strange, to me. One could say I’m being awfully stubborn about it.
The dawi and elgi have joined forces plenty of times since the war of vengance was concluded by Gotrek Starbreaker. there’s still bad blood, but the two eldar races are too pragmatic to let everything go to hell over their feelings. a dwarf and elf joining forces to quash the skaven, a larger threat, is fairly common.
Elgi pragmatic and won’t let their feelings get in the way? hah! that’s a good one!
Today I heard such a dialogue:
ogrin - think Boss should send assassin, yes?
veteran - budget might stretch to a Death Cultist… Wouldn`t advice it.
Agreed, I wouldn’t advise it, that’s a vet who’s seen some sh!t.
There’s some sh!t about literally every character - zealots are constantly shouting about blood for the Kho… sorry, for the Emperor, ofc; psykers are on the brink of possession; ogryns are planning to command the puny ones; veterans… they are just despise everyone.
The Zealot are already very close to being Death Cult Assassins. More so since the 3rd branch is themed on it
This is exactly what I wrote in the title.
I always avoided the 3rd branch of the Fanatic tree (seeing how most players rush ahead just to ruin the whole game), but I decided to try it anyway to finish all the penances for my Fanatic.
And suddenly… I liked it. It’s a perfect embodiment of the Death Cult, and literally the only thing missing is a good-themed outfit.
While ibthink we will get some inspired from it. They won’t be with the heels, and probably without the armour bra thingy
