It's like wanting to play something useless like an alien, or monster or some shit. They're dumb beasts, the dragon to be slain, not the hero of the story. Same deal with the nameless mook. They're a non-character who is meant to be ignored by the story, or passed over like a speed bump.

I like the idea of a nameless rank and file soldier rising to the challenge and becoming a legend. But I hate when people just use it for really bland self inserts.

Especially when there are far cooler races and factions in the setting.

You could probably get to Breeding Season level with a good year or so of study. Not that it's bad art, but it's pretty simplistic. How the audience snowballed for it so quickly is another thing.

I'm not paying, so it's none of my business. Good for them.

Except that's not how it works, they already have people for that, you'd be a grunt hastily trained, if you're good with it you'd be the squad's marksman, which is not like a sniper because you still get to go toe to toe with the enemy instead of laying for days with an antimaterial weapon for your mark to cross the road

>>342977780
It's the same dudes that want to play an imperial guard in a shooter. They want to play the no name shitter but still accomplish stuff, but if the game was accurate you'd be dying in the first or second level.

In that case you'd be killed by the enemy or your own unit after the fourth level. Or if you were assigned to a unit of Catachans you probably die at the end of the first level.

If that's the mechanic and it's a war story told by you playing dudes until they die and then playing someone else that would be cool. But most people seem to want to take one IG and play the whole game and get a medal and the emperor himself gives you a blowjob because you were the little IG that could.
