Popped back into the local Warhammer store to pick up a tech-priest mini and left with a burning hole in my wallet. Guy running the place made me Play three questions for the chance to win a free one (not the monthly). Failed. I shan't be going back for some time /s

Jerma but he's a Warhammer inquisitor:

I want this guy thrown out of the airlock for 10 seconds. Stop asking me to look into the warp. I'm not going to open myself up to the warp. Yes, Nurgle has a dumpy but we really don't need to be talking about it. I don't wanna get in trouble.

You know I wouldn't mind a Mechanicus shooter. The Mechanicus are cool. Probably my favorite faction within the Imperium.

I've said it before but I'll say it again. I hope @gog.com's new leadership continues to expand its one-click modding initiative. This stuff is so cool. Great way to set itself apart from Steam.

I don't know anything about GTA roleplay servers but I do know that I flinched when I saw these price tags.

Now I've only played two hours of Total Warhammer 3 and didn't like it but I do hope I like Total Warhammer 40,000.

Good video talking about iD's problems with storytelling. I agree that if they want to put more emphasis on the story than they need to put more effort into making something that's cohesive and comprehensible. Yes, har har. Story in a Doom game. I know, I know.
