@40kWorldview …burning the guys who are actively trying to summon demons into the world is not good? Dawg….are you dumb? And don’t give me the “turn the other cheek” shit, Christ took a whip to fuckers in the temple.

@ShadowofHawk55 You spectacularly overreact. I love the Ecclesiarchy for its mission and zeal. Two sides of a coin. Burning heretics is not a good thing. Moving masses to faith is.

Yes the religion that protects people from Demons, provides a guiding light that lets the civilization function, and has actual angels that come and save the day......is a commentary on the evils of Christianity.... Some people are so stupid I wish for the Petrol Age Collapse

@dingaling202 @HashionDiscord Their only claim to being good is treating aliens like people. Like the Imperium did with the Jokaro or the....fuck what are those rat people called? Strixi? I think? Or the Q'orl or some populations of Eldar depending on the sector Governor, etc....

@ShadowofHawk55 @HashionDiscord well as I said, the T'au are just better than the Imperium, not GOOD.

The Warhammer fandom not only does this, but will then get mad when the canon invalidates their headcanon

I am going to be so fucking vindicated when this game comes out I saw this game being trash from Trailer 2 x.com/ShadowofHawk55… x.com/ShadowofHawk55…

@khuryaggoth @Freddies_boy @HashionDiscord Dude's actually blind, can't see that you're an Ork Fanboy

@Freddies_boy @ShadowofHawk55 @HashionDiscord whatever helps you sleep at night lol. cry more, little taucel.

@Freddies_boy @HashionDiscord So you want me to take time out my day to grab those screenshots only for you, a self identified libtard, to go "but those don't count cause of (insert bullshit goal post shift here" like you people always do? Yeah, no thanks.

@ShadowofHawk55 @HashionDiscord Why don't you show some examples?

@Freddies_boy @HashionDiscord Or you're a liar

@ShadowofHawk55 @HashionDiscord If I've never seen it in 11 years then it's not a relevant problem. You're just shadowboxing here.

@corneliusmzu Nice argument

@ShadowofHawk55 absolutely no self awareness at all

They're evil but you'd have to be geniunely mentally handicapped or have completely fucked up morals to think they're as evil as the IoM. Like geezus

@changeling025 @HashionDiscord Tight

@ShadowofHawk55 @HashionDiscord No, I play with the tau players pretty regularly. Just because something doesn't back up your onion doesn't mean the other is lying either lol

@dingaling202 @HashionDiscord Like Malei said, you just made a white savior argument dude

@ShadowofHawk55 @HashionDiscord I think you have to consider the life quality of the average T'au. Even allied races, while treated as second class citizens, still live far better than most imperials, even if you don't count hive worlds

@corneliusmzu ...the Imperium, not every single person in the Imperium. Bad dudes who are on Chaos level evil exist in the Imperium. Just like good dudes exist in the Tau.

@corneliusmzu Don't be ridiculous. Chaos worshippers sacrifice babies and make Demonculabas cause they're selfish power hungry gits. The Imperium's worst activities are driven by the fact that the aliens, demons, and alien/demon loving humans want to kill the Imperium. Note I said...

@Freddies_boy @HashionDiscord Yeah and those guys who ignore the Imperium's flaws are also retarded. Doesn't mean Tau fans doing it don't exist. So you're blind or a liar.

@ShadowofHawk55 @HashionDiscord I've been collecting tau since 2015 and never once saw anyone say anything remotely like that. It's just not a problem the tau community has. Imperium fanboys meanwhile will unironically claim they're the good guys while lying about the tau.

@changeling025 @HashionDiscord See my previous statement. Youre missing it or you're lying.

@ShadowofHawk55 @HashionDiscord And yet, I still haven't seen any of this. Doesn't happen in my LGS, doesn't happen on any of the lore channels i watch, hasn't happened in any of the discord servers I'm in either 🤷‍♂️

@nuhre_ Old fantasy was created by people who studied myth and history New Fantasy is created by people who played World of Warcraft and watched Game of Thrones

Let’s talk magic, because this is where it really starts to fall apart. In Dragon Age: Origins, magic is a system, not a gimmick. It’s rooted in the Fade—mages can cast spells because they have a stronger connection to it than ordinary people. Spirits and demons are real, possession is a constant risk, and the entire Circle system exists to control that danger. And the variety actually matters. You’re not just “a mage,” you specialize: • Primal (fire, ice, lightning) • Spirit (mana drain, spell disruption, anti-magic) • Creation (healing, buffs, support) • Entropy (hexes, curses, debuffs) • Arcane Warrior, Blood Mage, Shapeshifter, Spirit Healer, etc. Magic is learned, studied, and taught. Mages train in Circles, pass the Harrowing—literally entering the Fade and resisting possession by a demon—and only then become full enchanters. There’s structure, risk, philosophy behind it. And the Veil? When Solas created it, it separated the physical world from the Fade. Without it, it’s heavily implied that magic would be far more common—maybe even universal. That’s why ancient elves were so powerful. Technology, meanwhile, is rare. Dwarves—who don’t have a connection to the Fade—are the ones pushing engineering forward. People like Bianca’s creator (and other surface dwarves) are outliers specifically because innovation is uncommon. Magic and technology are two completely different domains in Thedas. They don’t overlap. And then Dragon Age: The Veilguard comes in and suddenly everything is “ancient magic,” “elven magic,” artifacts that function like tech, and organizations like the Veil Jumpers basically acting like magical containment units. It starts to feel less like a mystical system tied to the Fade and more like… fantasy-flavored technology. Even the basics get weird. If you play as a mage, there are moments that treat magic like something you build or “graduate” with a project—when in the original lore, becoming a mage is about surviving the Harrowing. You don’t craft your way into being an enchanter. You face a demon, or you die. Magic in Origins felt dangerous, spiritual, and deeply tied to the fabric of the world. It had rules, consequences, and identity. Turning it into something that behaves like advanced tech—especially elven tech—doesn’t expand the lore. It flattens it.

@changeling025 @HashionDiscord This site, Youtube, discord, seen it happen in the Grapevine store (that was a lot more civil than on these sites and was more of a discussion since people were face to face)

@ShadowofHawk55 @HashionDiscord genuinely where?

@dingaling202 @HashionDiscord They are just as evil, they just do shit on a smaller scale and have a better PR department. If they operated on the Imperium's scale they'd be doing the exact same shit just with Mecha instead of Space Marines.

@ShadowofHawk55 @HashionDiscord just as evil nah but I get what you mean. My favourite interpretation of them is from the Dark Coil. They are extremely calculating and just ally with people to save costs. They run an entire war with human meat shields while barely ever appearing on the battlefield themselves

@Freddies_boy @HashionDiscord I've literally seen Tau fans go the Tau are morally good and the only ills are things that are only found in Dawn of War, ignoring the books that literally have the Tau doing evil shit.

@ShadowofHawk55 @HashionDiscord This is you doing exactly what OP is talking about lmao, tau fans *absolutely* don't say their faction are "the good guys". We know it's just the lesser evil.
