the entire franchise exist solely because it has lore that allows it to exist, the miniatures look the way they do because they are described by lore, the games are based on characters and world building of the lore, all art, armor, vehicles, cities, planets, gods, characters, from all species and cultures human or otherwise in 40k, is because of the lore, as well as the plot its self and the scenes of events in the franchise are the way they are from lore. with out lore you dont have sanguineous, horus, or any other primarcs and their stories or their sons, you dont have the chaos gods or the emperor of mankind, or eldar, necron or tyranids, or anything else. with out lore there is no warhammer 40k, the stories and world building from the lore is what allows the world of 40k and everything in it to exist, and if you dont like 40k lore or reject its lore continuity, than why pretend to be a 40k fan?

This stream was a dumpster fire, I don't know why lore questions even made it in.

@Spinegrinder117 @SimplyShae13 And if you actually ask the GW clerks, they will candidly tell you that Old World sales peaked at launch and first wave Cathai and were not even remotely as good as AoS 4th edition, let alone Helsmiths.

@SimplyShae13 Yeah it does. Old world only gets 1 new release every few months compared to Age of Sigmar getting new content every few weeks But that deflates their entire argument of “warhammer only selling because of the lore being good” and he’d have to admit AoS had better lore

Ok cool shelf? You insisting I'm lesser just because I'm new. Mad enough to take a shitty pic of your shelves. Sure seem angry with such a small account too. I'm not afraid of you or your ilk. I made this account because of people like you. We won't back down. This is our hill

All you woke people just lie. You came into my profile and presented ChatGPT info to prove your claim, yet you’re trying to frame it as if I was the one doing that? You guys are so pathetic.

@The_Noise_13 Now he also thinks Old World sales are equal to Age of Sigmar sales. His source is ChatGPT

@coronelpanic @Spinegrinder117 As a Votann player, I agree. Their community formed around models and rules first and lore a distant second, though what they have is pretty good and everyone loves the "imperial pigeon" joke and the fleshing out of common life in the one book we have.

@Spinegrinder117 Votann is an amazing example of why lore doesn't mean shit for sales. They didn't get a novel until years after the army launched. Instead everyone rushed out and bought it because the previewed rules were fucking absurd.

“The Lore is why Warhammer sells” motherfuckers when you tell them that means Age of Sigmar lore is obviously a lot better than Old World lore because the models sell a lot better (they can’t deny it or their entire argument collapses)

@LavenderGhast See, this would be a good point if AoS wasn't massively selling more than WHFB ever did and Old World wasn't on its last legs not even two years after launch.

The irony being they blew up fantasy thinking not enough people would care because they wanted a new game. P*ssed everyone off with the end times just for the launch of their shiny new game and made the lore basically "do whatever you want" nebulous and not even a proper map to orientate the factions. Nearly everyone hated it, so they've spent the last few years fixing and chiselling away at the setting to give it a more concrete setting and established lore. Flaunting the lore side of things as not as important as the models actively harmed AoS at launch and it's still not recovered, despite having some of the best models out of any Warhammer range. Which proves that good models alone can't move armies as much as combining it with developed worldbuilding around those armies. Like others, I don't just want my army to look good, I want to know what their motivations are, who they are as a faction, why they're fighting, where they're fighting, what stories exist for the named characters. There's factions with absolutely beautiful models but I don't collect them because I didn't like their lore, didn't vibe with the factions motivations and I know i'm not alone in this kind of collecting.

This how Noise thinks someone who knows nothing about 40k buys minis. >person A walks into a game store, sees a box of Space Marines and picks it up cause they think it looks cool >turns to Person B who looks like they know at least something about the minis A: hey these guys look cool, whats their deal? B: they're Space Marines A: Yeah I can see that on the box, what are they for? B: A tabletop war game A: Oh ok....anything else? B: No, thats it. A: Oh ok thats good enough for me. >A: Proceeds to drop $60 on a squad plus an almost equal amount for paints, glue, and other tools Here is what would actually happen: A: Oh Ok anything else? B: No, thats it. A: Oh...Alright then... >A: puts box back and goes to look at whatever brought them into the store in the first place. See the sad thing is Temu Jack Sparrow here knows that the second version is what would actually happen if there was no lore. Because no one is going to drop $50-$100 on something they know nothing about. Especially something that will take hours to assemble and then paint. If lore really didn't matter or contribute in any meaningful way to miniature sales, then you can bet your ass GW would never bother with it at all. Publishing lore/books is an investment into driving interest into purchasing minis. If it wasnt there and there was nothing compelling to drive those sales, then eventually it fails. Is it folly to say that Lore is more important? Yes but it is equally so, to say it's 'secondary' and is only used by clowns like Noise to justify changing it to fit their own personal politics. Thats his entire goal when he says that kind of thing. To make lore sound trivial, even though it does clearly matter to him, so that he and other woke types can demand whatever changes fits their own world views.

@MrAntiHero1 Idk man, you having no taste or not understanding the lore is secondary seems like a you problem.

@ikekun115 @The_Noise_13 AoS, is always gets the second hand ads in GW's own website, because 40k sells and grows better than AoS. It stoped growing, so they're just "maintaining" what's left when we have rumours about Old World coming back to replace it.

@The_Noise_13 He won't, because his fragile ego fears all those he blocks. We never intereacted yet he has me blocked, so I guess me calling him a 45 years old unemplyed hack with daddy issues was 100% correct.

Warhammer 40k has always been lore and canon first, minis second. It released without a dedicated mini line, was incepted as a Narrative game and RPG first (as sated by Priesley and Ansell) and, has had more space in its Rulebooks/Codexes dedicated to background and lore than mini collecting or list building. Mini catalogues were also few and far between the numerous sources books and article collections for lore. Anyone saying otherwise is either a post 8th Ed parasite or a consumer brain half wit. Either way, fuck off my lawn posers.
