Yes, for what we know, there is also some secrets, reffering to some lines of some characters.
You see thats the point. It is crucial to maintain infrastructures, but the Imperium of man is litterly spanning accros the milky way, that means thousands of thousands of worlds. So we can debate here, is it that necessary to get this steel ? Surely, here, in this system. But thats the upper part of the iceberg, it is not the job of an inquisitor to deal with such things. Most likely the Governor of the Planet=> Adeptus Ministorum not the Inquisition who specifcly deals with the larger picture.
Imo we as rejects are here to maintain a certain level of stability and fuctionnality of Atoma prime, but, as we are also a part of the Inquisition, and because the taint of Chaos has already plague the City Hive of Tertium we can assume that there is more than factories at stake. I dont intend to disminish the strategic importance of those manufactoria. But, still, Inquisition shouldnt be concerned by this. And is remotely “in charge” of those key war strategic ressources, thats not their jobs. Most likely, they are here to purge the taint of chaos who wants to disrupt and destroy the Imperium of man.
Restoring the Manufactoria, would be the task of the Astra Militarum or the Adeptus Ministorum of the planet. Not the job of the Inquisition. But since their is a plague and a surge of both the cultist of nurgles, the plague and the Moebian sixth (wich was the Adeptus Militarum in charge of the defense of this remote Meobian system before turning to chaos, that we see pleeding allegiance with the Rots of Nurgles cultist in a cutscene) it makes me wonder to what extent the plot might or not extend.
Story can’t be the concern right now. I wrote a few page long post about the priorities. Yes, you’re 100% correct story needs to be in there but right now the priority has to be stability, functionality, and usability. There’s still memory leaks, crashes, poor optimization etc. From there they need to work on convienence, making shots, menues etc more user freindly. I want more story as much as the next person, we all do but story can’t be the priority right now.
Definitely check out the post I did about UX design priority. I’m with you but the time to focus on adding story is not now.
They’ve mentioned the second hive city that no one is supposed to talk about, I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s fallen entirely and we’ll have to launch raids against it at some point.
There is that, and there is also all the characters we dont know nothing about, except myth and tales of their bravery like Melk, who is supposed to be Lord Melk from (i dont remember) and fought jeanstealers, and so much other battles “his soul is tainted” is one of psyckers line about him, one says ‘"he lived so long’, there is also the Techpriest who is angry but we dont know why, is it just a banter ? The Lady Ship commander, who is one rogue trader, wich means that she is allowed to conduct buisness on her own terms out of the scope of the Administorium (thats also imo why there is an Lord Inquisitor on the ship, wich is WAY above a “regular” inquisitor in terms of hierarchy and…knowledge and…pretty much a lot of things but most of which is that they most likely no longer deals with direct threats, as a Lord Inquisitor it is more liquely you deal with internal affairs inside the Imperium and im not talking about heretics, i mean more like a Supervisor. So it is a BIG deal that we work for a Lord Inquisitor indirectly.
Go to Steam Character Showcase. Theres Small Story Written you can Read. Dont know if Dan´s Handywork but theyre good Short Stories
Steam/ Darktide/ News
I suspect we’ll see a lot more of these as well, along with some more Youtube videos. Vermintide 2 had some really well written small stories posted on steam.
The Ecclesiarchy doesn’t really like pskyers (blame Lorgar), psykers have their own organisation called the Adeptus Astra Telepathica. The general paperwork and bureaucracy are handled by Adeptus Administratum, which there is no real rep for in Darktide, although Sier Melk may be the closest. Adeptus Munitorium is the bureaucracy for the Astra Militarum.
The other big mystery so far still is the mysterious ‘dark tide’ that the Moebian 6th went out to fight and came back as traitors.
You have to go outside Darktide to figure out what’s going on inside Darktide… Youtubes…here’s her primer to “Seriously WTF is going on in Darktide”
Then… like Vermintide 2 piece together the breadcrumbs from group chat, vague NPCs and new content bits… but at least VT2 has a base campaign that made sense…
