CRPG, or as I like to call it: Open world xcom. Which is all 40k can seemingly muster to make. I know it's basically what the tabletop game is like but jesus christ. You get 3-5 games a year; try something else.

? This is the only 40k crpg I've seen. Usually it's some turn based strategy title.

The only thing in common is the turn based. Other than that, an RPG is miles away from what the usual yearly 40k are.

Looking forward to this one myself. There is some pozz'd shit with some of the romances but other than that haven't heard anything overtly degenerate.

Won't be able to play on PC but hopefully the PS5 version will be decent.

Do you mean YOU won't be able to play it on PC?

Because it's already in second round of Beta test on PC. It's on my Steam list right now.

My apologies. Yes, precisely that. I haven’t been able to upgrade my PC for more than 5 years so I don’t think that I would be able to run it well.

I bought Chaosgate: Daemonhunters and the frame rate was horrible.

I’m therefore relegated to playing newer cross-platform games on my PS5.

That is assuming that the PS5 version comes out anytime soon AND is also decent.

Owlcat's console releases are awful, Kingmaker is barely playable and Wrath is likewise very unstable.
 
Console versions of Kingmaker and WoTR took at least a year each before getting on console. May be this time they will be quicker to release Rogue trader for console.

Though, Owlcat was never know for stability. Players teared them a second asshole when Kingmaker got released for the first time because of that and WoTR was very buggy too.
 
They're apparently going with 'body type' over gender in character creation.

That's kind of odd. Earlier when they showed off the characters they had no issue using the terms male and female. This has to be a very recent change.

I wonder if the tantrums thrown over the "lack" of gay romances prompted it.

So long as they still refer to the rogue trader as he/she in dialogue rather than replace all the pronouns with neutral ones I won't care too much, though hopefully the game is too far along for that sort of change.

I wouldn't worry about that. Owlcat games have potato graphics, it isn't Baldur's Warpgate 3.
 
Well after darktide I believe people can make half decent 40k games and path of the righteous is pretty good so I m optimistic about this one.
 
So apparently to Owlcat, having gay buttsex with a degenerate sadistic space elf, banging a lying skank, doing a psychic, and molesting a mutant navigator is a-ok, but if I want to have a romance with a redhead space elf, it's a problem and not going to happen.

I just want a fulfilling relationship with a normal Eldar woman, what offense does that cause anyone?

Burn heretic!
 
I can accept anything that doesn't involve the ruinous powers. Id negotiate with the Tau to destroy them. Send an orc horde and some bugs into the eye of terror. Pull a blood angel and team up with the necrons.

Now I'm wishing for a screwball comedy where a Rogue Trader has to keep pointing a band of pirate orcs at various enemies of the empire to keep them out of trouble through more and more eblorate lies.

Yeah it's kinda weird how you can barter with and negotiate with the orcs sometimes. If they were all like that id just bribe them into fighting chaos all day. They tried that with the bugs and apparently that wasn't a good idea though

I think most high level empirical have too much of a stick up their ass to deal with the happy go lucky attitude of orcs. I forgot the game but I remember the whole orc freeboota campaign was hunting down a inquistor for her hat. ( It was a pretty sweet hat)

The orc didn't even kill her at the end! He just wanted the hat.
