Oh look, another reason not to give a shit about ultra-fashy WH40k
I think you're thinking of Games Workshop, the IP holder for WH and WH40K. This is about Creative Assembly, the developer of the Total War RTS games, mostly historical, but also 3 set in the WH universe. They basically developed a very adversarial relationship with their core audience and failed to innovate in decades. Oh wait it is kinda similar to the Games Workshop situation...
But...this has absolutely nothing to do with WH40k? The fuck are you talking about?
They are either a troll or an idiot, in either case best to just mute and move on instead of giving them attention.
isnt total war warhammer about w40k?
No, it's about Warhammer fantasy, also Games Workshop, but different universe. Creative Assembly - the Total War guys - have never made a 40k game.
lol, no. Makes it pretty obvious you don't know what you're angry about.
uh Im not that guy lol
Im just a random person who made a throwaway comment which happened to be wrong
at this point the confusing naming is a pretty good shibboleth to show if you know what you're talking about
you failed
Dumb take. That's not what's at issue here and making it an excuse to red herring a series you dislike is really dumb.
But violent video games and rap music is still a problem though right?
Wait what? The "everyones evil" franchise has evil people in it? Gasp
