Explain this odd behaviour.
>>
>>343301162
dont fucking remind me.
>>
Not being able to steal warhammer 40k lore and concepts anymore really hurt Blizzard.
>>
>>343303632
What did Warhammer 40K steal from?
>>
>>343303923
Starship Troopers mostly.
>>
>>343301162
the writing of this was so awful, jeez. not even your standard hollywood popcorn flick has that generic characters and story.
>>
>>343304148
Should I watch that? I heard it's some nerd shit.
>>
>>343304215
I was referring to the books but the movie is actually better.
>>
>>343301162
What am I looking at?
>>
>>343304796
Super Saiyan Kerrigan
>>
>>343304165
The main campaign of Lotv was actually pretty ok imo.
The epilogue was utter shite though.
>>
I'm fine with Kerrigan being a space jesus and emotional inconsistent. Even the Lovecraft beings are fine.
Her turning into space angel/goddess is going too far.
The ending with Jim is even more bullshit. I'm convinced that he killed himself.
>>
>>343301162

>People actually thought the writing would somehow improve after WoL.
>>
>>343308672
Kerrigan should have died for her crimes.

I have evolved BEYOND the Queen of Baits.
>>
>>343304215
Yes, it's really great fun

Anyways it's different from the books though. The books introduce the "Space Marine" idea, which goes on to inspire 40k, Doom, Alien etc.
>>
>>343306898
Yeah, it was surprisingly ok
>>
what the fuck legacy of the void came out?
>>
Who came up wit this.
>>
>>343301162
turns giant and it makes her boobs look smaller

The protoss chicks were pretty qt desu.

>tfw bought physical copy on release for 40 jewros
i don't regret it one bit
>>
>>343304148
That´s bullshit.

It took very little to almost nothing from starship troopers, because everything that you could assign to starship troopers is found also in 2000AD and frank herbert´s dune- from which it takes considerably more- except for a swarm-like species.
>>
>>343311016
That was zerg kerrigan, not human kerrigan, zerrigan seized to be after WoL, and killing her still would have made no sense.
>>
>>343303923
Starship Troopers, Judge Dredd, Dune, a little bit of Star Wars and Dr. Who, and Warhammer Fantasy.

WHFB in turn took mostly from Moorcock, Tolkien, and history and myth.
>>
>>343304215
You are on a fucking video game image forum. You're already way more nerd than that movie holy shit
>>
>>343316196
>tfw I bought the special edition, which came with soundtrack, a dvd that had all sorts of extra content, and this kickass fluff/artbook.

Worth every penny.

>>343316480
Nigga she kept doing the same shit she did as Queen of Blades, after getting de-infested.
>>
>>343301162
Oh is this a screenshot from Illidan in Legion? I can't believe that Blizzard is doing the same shit story with WoW
>>
>>343316561
Oh and I forgot Space Hulk is inspired by Aliens, which in turn had a smidgen of influence from Starship Troopers. Basically Warhammer and 40k in general were a kitchen sink of everything that British nerds loved leading up to and in the 80s.

>Worth every penny.
i bet it is, did you read the short stories on the blizz site? they are pretty good fluff imo
>>
>>343318240
Yeah. Many of them are way better written than the main story of the game itself.

blizz tends to shoot itself in the foot when it tries to do a longer story desu
