pentyne posted:No that's correct. If you explored as much as you could in Act 2 there's pretty much nothing new to find aside from a single system that is main quest locked. Lol no way. Not much of a spoiler, but that's a let down. Ch2 I was cruising through the map like, "oh boy can't wait to see the rest of this map opened up! There's all this space yet to be explored, they'll surely have stuff for it later." I'm almost done with chapter 3 and reading that I almost feel bad slamming through it as fast as I could.

You get extra up stuff if you read all the rumors in your journal and a bunch of it is only available chapter 4. I explored every system in chapter 2 and still had about 20 or 30 hours of open exploration content in chapter 4.

Also if you don't take any warp routes down to yellow you get a fight almost every trip, which will certainly make the game feel longer. I liked the demons that got empowered from las weapons.

The last major patch changed some things so there are a few systems previously visible in Act 2 that are no longer there, the places like the 3 Chaos Marines and a Doombrute. Possibly others like the Dark Eldar turrent trap planet. Rumors was also a pain in the rear end to figure out as the journal did not track them in the slightest and too many of the rumors gave you no information or context. They fixed it with the large ? areas overlaying the map but I traveled through those a few times and didn't trigger or encounter anything new. After see a few quests somehow failing automatically for no reason I kind of stopped caring about finding every little detail and just went through what remained of the main game.

I think Owlcat went too hard into the lore accurate map, you have all the big scary pictures drawn on to indicate places you just can't go, plus the bluish haze that I think indicates un-passable warp storms. It makes sense in ttrpg standards but for a computer game all you see is a ton of empty map space expecting it to full in with interesting events and locations until it doesn't.

Their community manager posted about taking the feedback they got about the Kingmaker and Wrath DLCs that people were not enjoying the rogue-like standalones or endless dungeon additions so Rogue Trader is going to focus on expanding the main game. 2 new companions and more character creation choice is a good start. They need to add literally any other races besides Eldar as potential enemies to mix it up.

Decided to do a fresh start of the game rather than pick my, probably bugged to poo poo, Act 4 save. I really wish they had not added VO lines for the master Helmsman, they suck. Also  at the character creator still having the ship selector look like a big list with a single entry for the Sword Class frigate.

They should add Kroot, Orcs, Rakghoul who are hilarious because they use nuclear bombs as engines, maybe a Slaagh (creepy worm monsters that walk like Men), just any of the xenos that've already been established by the TTRPG.

Really disappointed that the main story is about some poo poo no one cares about, instead of being about your rivalry with an Ork Freeboota Captain who manages to outpace and outwit you at every step as you attempt to plunder the Koronus Expanse

My only complaint is the sudden swerve instead of there being a bit more foreshadowing as to what Act 5 would be about. Wrath was a nice, cohesive narrative, but each act of RT feels like distinctly separate adventures, and the final one is so short and sudden that it doesn't really have time to sink in. I do hope they throw in Ork DLC at some point though. A comic relief story would be a good addition to the narrative. Maybe the Void DLC will set up Act 5 better.

That all felt like act 3 to me, maybe I missed loads because I did think it was odd I wasn't even close to maxing out my level before going into the end stage.

While waiting for the patch to come and fix what was a very nice game before Act 3, I played Wrath and then went back to play Kingmaker. Both have a lot of charm, and all three show Owlcat improving in areas ( and failing to change in others ). This game has been very fun so far and has some great storytelling, which with some gameplay/interface improvement would make for a killer sequel. What else would you be saving Space Orcs to do? This game was fresh and interesting as someone who never touched Warhammer 40,000 outside browsing a Wikipedia page, and I'm hopeful to explore it more.pentyne posted:Their community manager posted about taking the feedback they got about the Kingmaker and Wrath DLCs that people were not enjoying the rogue-like standalones or endless dungeon additions so Rogue Trader is going to focus on expanding the main game. I'm glad to hear this because I thought a lot of the Kingmaker and Wrath DLC was forgettable at best and boring filler at worst. Wrath's trippy one was good and all of the ones with companions were decent, so hopefully it's more of that but with DLC Companions fully interacting with base game companions.

Given how much of Warhammer 40k is the dieect result of the Emperor being a worthless dogshit parent, it feels appropriate that the best outcome possible in Rogue Trader is being a good parent to a nascent demigod

Relevant Tangent posted:Yeah, basically The Aeldari and Necrons get my sympathy, at least a little bit. The latter is more of a stretch for various lore reasons. Chaos and Drukhari though... Rykad, Janus, Kiava Gamma, Euphrates II, Commoragh... nah. Especially Drukhari, who have alternatives but instead choose to do the exact things that got them into their mess but more rather than take the Craftworld, Harlequin, or more recent Ynnari solutions. To be frank, Drukhari are the one you can point to as an example of every Imperial stereotype of the 'perfidious xenos.' They are arguably the most awful of all the factions in 40k, including Chaos and Nids. The only other xenos we really see are the Sslyth, who are a bit one-note and the only one we talk to doesn't really do much to give them personality beyond what we already know.

My favorite bit with Drukhari is when talking to your companion if you recruited him, and he asks why you decided to work with him and you can respond with "Because I pity you" and nothing anyone has ever done or said to him at that point infuriates him as much as your earnest empathy.

It is definitely better than release but still buggy, YMMV. The longer you can wait on the game the better your experience will be, including waiting for the DLC(s). I got through RT fine on release, some companion content didn't start like it should have.
