Something I wanted people to hear when it comes to shock content or horror using edgy subjects without a real and good purpose. Go watch Painticus on YouTube he’s an interesting fella and made a video two weeks ago about Azeroth.

‘Tis such a struggle to have such beauty! Beauty and perfection arent easy feats after all but with a hole puncher, a blue wig and some $1 fairy wings, you too can look like me

Hot Take

I think turning kids cartoons and child-centered media into horror stories is more terrifying than actual horror stories. While grimdark horror stories are meant to be scary and anxiety inducing, making grimdark stories for things initially made for kids feels like a perversion of innocence into something truly sick and twisted.

I'm sure that is the desired effect.

Goretober 6: Bugs

Goretober 6: Bugs

" No wonder I never got my cutie mark as a filly!"

My men stood gathered around the mare as she spoke, too stunned to speak. She seemed fine save for the gore that spilled from her body cavity. Maggots squirmed and writhed in her decaying flesh.

How was she alive?

" It all makes sense now! I was never cut out for the family business at all! I was always far too clumsy for pottery- a bone fide bull in a China shop!"

Was it shock? Or did these vermin secrete some kind of numbing agent as they burrowed? Both? My head swam with nausea but I was unable to tear my eyes away.

" This is what I was meant to do! It's even in my name! Blue Bottle!"

I would like to announce to any fellow grimdark enjoyers, death stranding aficionados, and looter-shooter enthusiasts that there is an awesome looking game coming out soon.

It is called “The Forever Winter,” the devs have said that it will be 27 USD at time of release, there will be no P2W at all, and they just have an epic vibe.

Here is a link to the steam page:

https://store.steampowered.com/app/2828860/The_Forever_Winter/

This is not me telling y’all to go buy this, just give it a look-see is all I’m asking. The Devs are trying to start to bring back a better era of video games.

Whilst this is definitely an interesting point to make about star wars that I don't have an answer too

But in Warhammer 40k's context I think this can be explained

Short: the empirium is a shit hole that *could* gives its soldiers spacesuits but chooses not to because they are expendable

Long: Yes it's impractical.....the imperium does not care. The imperium is very impractical in a lot of ways....it would be good if they gave people spacesuits for combat but in all likelihood they just don't have the money the equipment and the logistics to make that happen.

Also during warp travel, spacesuit or not if you end up outside the ship your dying either way

To the empirium manpower is one of the cheapest things they have....far cheaper than protecting their workers with advanced tech they just get new workers and soldiers when the old ones die from whatever preventable cause they are choosing to ignore

What I don't like about star wars and warhammer 40k, is that no one, almost no one wears any kind of space suits while traveling in space. Especially during battles, when a ship can be damaged badly enough to cause leakage of air.

For comparison, in mobile suit gundam it's common for a military vessel's (and sometimes cargo ships too) crew to wear space suits during space battles. The same can be said about mobile suit pilots, with some notable exceptions like OYW era Char and Haman, unless the battle is happening on Earth, they wear space suits.

It's a mystery to me why it's so uncommon to wear a space suit in wh40k and SW.
