This man is insane. His upload schedule and the length of his videos is wild, and it’s not like the scripts feel rushed or bad either. The grind is real.

[DrasticSkuba]

I just got control of the ship. I'm new to 40K lore and loving what I'm seeing so far. As of now, my goal is to be a primarily Dogmatic loyalist to the emperor with a Ned Stark "man who passes the sentence should swing the sword" mentality. Super enjoying being a Commisar Soldier from a Forge World.

Owlcat have got themselves a winner here

[robcampion]

I like the fact that the Owlcat graphical style makes it look like a table top game much like Chaos Gate.

[BlastedOblivion]

Using too much psycher power can call in demons to make the fight harder.
I heard that as "summon more xp bags to hit."

[darksavior]

Marksman got renamed in the release into Soldier, for those that might get thrown off looking at archetypes in the video.

[Mristheanswer]

You forgot to mention the Commisars most powerful ability - a sweet hat.

You are my go to youtuber for crpgs and more. I m really excited about this game, but havent yet started it due to my backlog. I expect to start it in March. I m glad to see you like it too to the point of making a guide.

[dezzdinn]

I’ll buy it as long as I am the captain and I can make people walk my space plank.

Also it looks good, Owlcat is my new Square and … Mort does great work here helping muppets like me connect the dots on games I don’t get.

[Jabberwokee]

This game looks like a lot of fun

I was originally thinking it wasn’t for me but all this detail and options for unique builds have sold me on it

I’m hoping I can pick it up on console

[lockheart]

Im watching this after finishing the prologue with my Noble Officer. I saw the extra turns and was like 'yes please'. Loving the breakdown so far, i may restart with this new knowledge, but love the game and love your vid man.

[Gadgets]

So happy your video was top result when lookimg for a beginners guide. I played about 30 min so far and kinda lost. So thank you for this.

[stefeeNRG]

Amazing! The WOTR Guide was awesome, it really helped me understand the game better which I then completed on Core without much difficulties. This guide is going to be equally helpful as well if it gets complicated. Thank you.

[GovnaSK]

Starting my playthrough, thanks to this guide! Thanks man, informative and concise as always.

[hoot]

As I am not familiar with the Rogue Trader TTRPG rules (unlike Pathfinder that I know enough to dive into WotR and Kingmaker), this video is right on time. Thanks, excellent work!

[faydex]

Made me a Crimelord Operative without knowing just how broken it is. I dont think ive ever missed a shot and nearly always crit and penetrate armor WHILE making my whole team way more effective

[LordSerion]

Started my first character, a Voidborn Naval Officer. Plan to raise INT and use Be Smart talent as the "face" of the team.

[georgschulz]

Thanks! You sparked my interest for this game. I wasn't aiming for a text heavy game, but the love to the details of 40k changed my mind.

[gavvy]

This game was very overwhelming for like the first hour but clicked very fast. Definitely a lot of fun.

[macus]

Really excited to see your first psyker build guide in the next couple of months!

[dumplingshakes]

My god if there ever was a video I absolutely needed
