You're picking up on some subtle clues about the secret project. Still not a lot to go on yet, but good job, IMO. Some comments on dialogs with bridge crew: (1) If you had spoken with Vigdis before Idira's little breakdown with the fake Lady Theodora, you have an optional way to calm Idira down, which can lead to some minor interactions that can actually end in a different ending slide for Idira. Not a big deal, but it does encourage the player to speak with NPCs early and often. I know that this can be tedious, but I encourage periodically going around and looking for new interactions with both companions and the bridge crew. Maybe off screen unless you find something? And yeah, personal skills are necessary for these interactions, both persuasion and awareness (at least that I noticed). (2) Heinrix will also offer gift advice for Jae. (3) Yrliet will have a random ship event with you now that you expressed interest in how she sees things. Try to trigger that before you end the chapter. (4) Try to get the space cat before the end of the chapter from Jae as well. I know it's not exciting viewing for some without the thrill of combat, but I enjoy the character interactions, your comments on their personalities, speculation about lore info gained, and even paraphrases of the prompts your Rogue Trader says. So...my two cents.

To those that don't want to look up Battlefleet Gothic games, best representation of Eldar craftworld would unironically be protoss Spear of Adun colony ark.

StarCraft being based on wh40k, because GW refused to lend the IP to Blizzard, non witstanding...as far as i know, a craftworld would probably put adun to shame as they're part ship part planet (know of the moon sized Blackstone fortress that broke cadia? They're bigger...) each is big enough to contain a whole fighter jet speed racing track for training, their biggest ships and million of eldar doing everything from farming to art...

@@pedromoura1446 1)the history of relations of Blizzard and Games Workshops started before that. I can elaborate further, but this isn't a context of this comment. 2)Craftworlds house billions, not millions. However you VASTLY underestimate the size of both Spear of Adun and imperial vessels. And of how irl relativistic colony ships would look. Or rather how much space is in a ship that can be as "small" as several kilometers long. As mentioned to other guy in comments, planetoid, NOT planet. And when mentioning moon, it doesn't mean our Luna, which is a planet sized giant compared to other moons.

@@TheArklyte 1)sure. It was at most a footnote. StarCraft is 40k but more grounded and toned down so it would make sense for their ships to not be as ridiculous and physics defying as 40k ones... 2) the Spear of adun has around 75km in length... craftworlds are said to be "the size of continents" in more than one occasion and the closest thing to an actual size we get is in "doom of the eldar" were they're described a being "thousands of miles long", not "hundreds of miles" (which is were the spear of adun would fit if we're being generous...) but "thousands". Though i checked and you're right about the darkstone fortress...it is indeed smaller than the largest orbital defense fortresses which are by themselves far smaller than the spear of adun (around 30km if i recall correctly, with some of the largest imperial ships being 20-25 km long). I thought they were the size of the ork attack moons from the war of the beast but apparently not, which came as a surprise to me...

Funnily enough, i have exactly 1h15min before going to work. Just enough for a energizing episode of rogue trader from my favorite GM/youtuber. Thanks for treat Retcon!

I maintain the best use for soul stones would be to make a mural of slaanesh out of them.

Lord Retcon, could you ask someone on the Bridge to straighten out that carpet!

Carpet is nothing! There's that whole love poem Jae painted all over the floor. This crew has no standards...

Good video, no violence but mych world build. The Forge planet was good for combat so we due some talking XD

I have just realised that Vigdis is named after Centauri Beta aka Toliman.

@redvenge709 Ай бұрын

I doubt Mort's death was because of Theodora's intrigues. Examining Mort when you first find him reveals he was killed before he could draw his weapon and that he was killed with some kind of auto-gun (not a bolter or energy weapon). Who killed Mort and Theodora seemed fairly obvious to me from the information gained at the crime scene.

Like and good video.👍👍 Mann Great Lord Guilliman must have titanic patience if that what it feels to talk to an eldar.

Funnily enough with mon’keigh technology, there are actual orangutan creatures called jokero who are some of the best creators of digi-tech or microtechnology.

10:00 I guess shooting a man in the spine a couple of times could sort of be considered "watching his back". Also, you think activating the dlc might have anything to do with all the conversations that are showing up.

I could've sworn you talked to Abby already I think the dialogue options reset for lack of a better word and aren't greyed out even though they should be.

@RetconRaider Ай бұрын

I definitely talked to him back in Alpha, but I think in the launch series I only specifically talked to him about the stuff related to his personal quest on the lower decks. :)
