Why would anyone want to worship some warp fuck knows what instead of a perfectly good Emperor?
>worst dad

>>47802745
Well it's not like you know what having a father is like to begin with you fucking nigger.
>>47802684
Because GW likes to be edgy and lets chaos win everytime.
>>47802684
>supposedly guided humanity from the shadows since prehistory to prepare us for his golden age, therefore has first-hand experience with all the great dictators of the past and why they failed
>made several very unwise decisions to lead to the current sorry state of the Imperium that he of all people should have known to avoid, most notably trying to abolish all religion by force and not expecting people to worship him instead
Pick one. The being known as the Emperor is a fake, probably not much older than the Primarchs, and certainly far from infallible.
>>47802954
Despite basically being a god in physical form he is still only human.
>>47802745
I have to agree on that point
>>47802684
We only have his word that he is the best at everything.
From what we have seen his one trick is being a very powerful psyker who isn't all that clever and has the personality of a petulant teenager.
He is basically Best Korea
>>47803377
Shut the fuck up cyclops and go back to being molested by warp tentacle rape daemons of hentai.
>>47802684
Because people are stupid and make bad decisions.
>>47803409
I think you mean trump...
>>47803377
So is that your excuse on why you got your ass kicked by some furries?
>>47802684
Supposedly an accomplished scientist, yet his empire is filled with religious fanatics and has essentially outlawed science.
Supposedly the best general in history, yet he could not prevent a civil war that tore his empire in two.
Supposedly the best warrior in history, yet crippled by an encounter with a lesser warrior.
And yeah I'm totally convinced he has the time to go around personally collecting souls of his followers, even though he consumes the souls of his psychic followers by the boatload every day.
Why would anyone outside a cult of personality worship him?
>>47803377
Don't you have some furries to rage about?
>>47806726
That's the satire. He is a Catholic relic, a corpse topper on the giant machine that turns souls into a warp beacon. Might as well be ascribing miricles to the brass cock on a weathervane.
>>47803409
I read that as Best Korra, and it was still pretty on the money.
>>47802684
and he created this
>>47803377
You're just asshurt dad sent me to whoop your ass
>>47802684
Maybe the have bad taste in movies.
>>47806726
Not a 40k buff, but:
1.Happened after the civil war in question, when the Emperor wasn't around to counter it, and the Imperium was having a crisis of faith.
2,3.Whether he was a better general or not, Horus was the Warmaster of the Crusades until he turned traitor, which meant he had a lot of hands on experience in war and the trust of his troops. On top of that, he took half the Astartes with him and crippled most of the other half as the opening move of the Heresy. So Horus had both force superiority and the element of surprise, especially after the Emperor dismissed Magnus's warning due to warp/webway shenigans.
Wars have been won with less advantage than Horus had. The real question is how with all that he couldn't manage to land the killing blow and destroy the Imperium right then and there.

>most bling in the galaxy
nigger
>accomplished scientists
plural? There are a lot better scientists all over the galaxy, nothing special about this asshat. Besides, half of this creations were defects. 50% success rate is failure.
>best general in history
nope
>best warrior in history
nothing really important about him and he wasn't that great.
>successful career all around
his career barely started, then he died
>handsome
he's a shitskin from Turkey according to fluff
>protects your soul from Chaos meme gods
he actually strengthened Chaos. Chaos would have no power if it wasn't for him, he's an utter failure.
>>47806726
The imperium at the time only had one planet worshipping him (plot twist the emperor shat on them.) and science was actually advanceing rapidly. As for horus the emperor could've just killed him instantly with mind bullets. But instead he tried to convince him away from chaos and meanwhile horus beat the shit out of him.
>>47802954
Little-known Tzeentch plot: sneak out of game world, create Black Library, get them to write shitty 40k stories where the Emperor's actions make less and less sense over time.
>>47814833
Or GW just wants to make The Emperor blatantly flawed so they can push the grim dark angle.
Pretty soon we'll learn the emperor used his payment powers to devour other players while he was alive or so etching and had intended to bodysurf through his primarchs.
What would the Imperium have turned out like if the Emperor was less of a fedora tipping, petulant, arrogant moron?
>>47802745
Actually, I'll point out something.
The Emperor is a giant softy. No, really - He loves his children beyond belief. He let Angron and Kurze live, and he even loses to Horus because he DOESN'T WANT TO KILL HIS SON.
Seriously. It makes you wonder what the two Lost Primarchs did to force his hand.
>>47818366
>The Emperor is a giant softy.
Quite.
>>47815853
The Emperor isn't exactly flawed. He simply sees things on a massive, eons-long scale. Sort of like the various protagonists in Dune.
Some novels imply that he saw the Heresy coming, and was content to let things play out the way they did. (The Outcast Dead, and the Lorgar books.)
>>47802858
GW is pretty much the HFY company out there.
