WARNING- This is a Warhammer 40k tale that is Grim Dark and most definitely not safe for work. Do not expect Space Marines to save the day. Do not expect the Emperor's light. Do not expect hope.
Not only do you claim that the light been extinguished but I bet I will even miss the premier as well...
Truly all is lost!😢
@@sadwingsraging3044 no issues, I may have to rethink when I do premieres in the future. Not sure if many can make this one!
@@AVoxintheVoid it's just bad timing on my part. As for the release time with me being an American it would drop at 5PM here which isn't bad but there aren't many 40K fans here in the States relatively speaking.
Got a family dinner to attend so it is time to don the Dreadnought armor.😑
Funnily enough a huge portion of my audience is based in the states. Enjoy the family meal my man!
No god can save you, there never were any, they never were alive. Only you can save yourself. Only death will be your salvation. So make your choice. Hide, weak and cowardly like sheep or fight and struggle, murder and butcher, rip and eat. Because no matter which choice you make we are coming for you. For you all!!!
“That’s a Hell of an act,” remarked the talent agent. “So what are you called?”
And the family cried out in gleeful unison: “The Aristocrats!”
Classic godfried
This has got to be the 40k-est of all 40k story out there. No glory, no epic fight, no last stand. Just ol' grim ,dark, and hopeless far future.
the 40k of alltime
A perfect example of why the Eldar deserve extinction. They "birthed" this particular flavor of Hell into the galaxy. Let their knife eared souls suffer under the tender love of the Dark Prince for the rest of eternity.
Aaaaaand this is why you fight for the Emperor. Look at your options.
I'd rather be used as psychic fuel to sustain The God Emperor than end up in the claws of Slaanesh for them to do god knows what to me with god knows who or what.
100 percent lol
I'd rather live on a Tau world than an Imperial world, and I mean as a human. The best case scenario in the cosmic birth lottery of 40k. Average quality of life is astronomically better.
@@anibalybarrarojas race traitor !!! Lol
@@anibalybarrarojas good luck getting there when you live in a hive city
I genuinely love this. It genuinely highlights how horrific life is in the 40k universe and how not everyone has heroes to appear and save them.
Thankyou so much wanderer. I have a little bit of a dark fascination with unhappy endings.... I hope you enjoy the other two parts!
This one does such a good job of portraying Slaneesh worship that I'm honestly thinking GW should let you write Emperor's Children books. Can't wait for the next part!
Cheers David! This kind of story was right up my street. It's only going to get worse from here! 😎
*me prior to listening/watching* "Fuck yeah, Slaanesh!"
*Me ten minutes in and remembering that this is what Chaos is actually like* 😶
Fuck yeah Slaanesh
Finally someone writes the visceral brutal nature of chaos without reservation.
[Cries off in the distance] "f**king HERETICsss..."
Few writers truly get Slaanesh the way you do. There’s no empathy or consent or love with She Who Thirsts, just stimuli so overwhelming that they obliterate the ego. An excellent story, and I hope you write many more Chaos tales.
This story is so grim dark it would make a Black Library author quiver in fear.
Hands down the best warhammer 40k narrator. Stories are insane as well. This series in particular is quintessential grim. Love it.
This is the eldritch space horror I've been looking for.
Part two on the way my man!
**note to self**
_Never forget to put your glass vial of life-eater virus out of reach_
Voice and presentation aside, this writing is truly work of talent. -- I came back here after listening to the 3rd act to figure out who the writer was and why it was so good, and God damn... It's the Vox himself. -- Real talent, man.
Thankyou so much. This story was a labour of love for me so it's always a huge boost to read comments like these. Thankyou again my friend. Vox
@AVoxintheVoid Nah, thank you, man. - Stay good. 👍🏻👍🏿
Terrifying, i'd rather die being axed by a khornate berserker.
Slaanesh might sound tempting, an escape from the grimdark reality. But this is where the endless pursuit of even further extacy and pleasure leads to eventually.
None of THAT is my idea of pleasure...
You encapsulated the whole grim darkness of it all. You just flawlessly described how every random chaos cultist has a unique, individual, and interesting backstory, albeit a terrible horrible one in this case... anybody in the crowd could be this guy...
Many truly horrible 40K things are a case of “wrong place, wrong time.”
And this is the closest we’ll get to Books of Blood era Clive Barker writing for Warhammer…
Oh man that takes me back ❤
Imagination adds to horror.. this feels like a top notch horror to me. The writer and narrator nailed it. Gruesome and shocking work. 9/10
Thankyou buddy. This is the first story I wrote myself for the channel! I'm glad you feel that way!
I don’t know if I’m leaving these comments or I believe I am but I come back to this trilogy every 3 or so weeks and can’t quite get enough of it, it just so much, each time I forgot a small detail and then I hear it again and it becomes crystal clear, the whole thing has this indescribable feeling and it’s a really driving story it’s perfectly 40k and an outstanding story. I seriously can’t stop seeing the tragic events of Solomon play out over and over in immaculate gory detail.
Phenomenal
You know, this could be a very good survival horror story for a 40k game.
I can imagine it being like outlast
@@AVoxintheVoidOutlast x dead space
"tasteless pink and purple", Slanesh reported SLAIN.
Yooo she felt so safe I his arms as he caressed her, only for him to bail on her the one time he needed to be there the most. The one time she counted on him the most. This shits wild dude.
Ya hit me super hard first few lines in a weird way die standing you coward
Good grief that was horrible. I could feel every gory detail, every pain, every stench in my mind. This was true horror. Lingering terror slowly descending into indescribable madness while encapsulating the indulging, hedonistic nature of Slaanesh.
Amazing job a writing and transmitting the madness. Now if you'll excuse me, I have a lunch that I'm going to take a good look at again inside the porcelain throne.
Thankyou for sticking with it! This series was my baby. Consumed me for a couple of months but I think I exorcised the demons!
@@AVoxintheVoid "but I think I exorcised the demons!"
[The Ordo Malleus became highly suspicious]
This trilogy was and is brilliant! 40K honestly needs more stories about the civilians of the universe and this tale was a great blend of horror, corruption, guilt and loss.
The wait will be too long, looks like we get a great story for bedtime today.
I hope you enjoy your little night night tale
It's always content like this that's needed to remind us of all the true horrors of the 40K universe. Excellent work, brother.
I stumbled upon your channel last night after hearing “The watcher in the rain from Wes hammer” My Halloween day and night will be fucking immaculate thanks you to.
Thankyou Josh, we share the same surname so you're most definitely in my good books 😜
Same
WOW this series is amazing it had everything horror blood guts a man desperately trying to survive dealing with the grief and guilt of abandoning his dear wife to the chaos hoards and in the end to find the strength to go out swinging and meet his end and once again truly amazing narration absolutely gripping from beginning to end 😀😀😀😀😀
Sing praise farmer because you have received through mere chance and your own choices something untold mortals have spent their entire lives in pursuit of and failed to even glimpse. The direct attentions of a demon.
Beautiful
@@AVoxintheVoid Thanks! I wonder what his excess was? I believe it is a willingness to do whatever it takes to survive. An excessive desire to continue to exist if you will.
You got it my friend
Holy hell all I know of the chaos entities are facts about them this brings their meaning and action into frightening realism I can understand on a more emotional level. I now understand the meaning of ruinous powers and chaos. I also understand why people turn to chaos with the imperium being akin to a monster in itself chewing its people up and spitting them out into xeno food, chaos victims, or corpse starch. Or inhuman monsters from purgatory like work
That was a wonderfully woeful tale of pain, spite and delight. A true look at the depths one my sink for survival really well done
It's only going to get worse from here... Thanks for being here buddy 👍
@@AVoxintheVoid the pleasure was all mine thank you for the video
Truly incredible. I wish that I could listen to it for the first time again.
Too grim and too dark to be marketable for games workshop but maaan am I loving this channel!
I’ve loved this as it perfectly captures the death of hope in a Grim and very Dark universe. This isn’t for the timid souls that linger on the edges of life. This is for those whose souls have felt the corruption of chaos and have heard the calling of the wicked things in the warp. Wonderfully narrated and keep going! 🏆
Better than anything the black library has put out in ages in writing alone. And the presentation was gut turning.
I've learned by now that I can easily drop a like on your videos before even starting to watch them, because the quality is guaranteed to always be there
Came back to listen to this again. This is how I first found this channel and it is still just spectacular.
Truly appreciate this message my friend. This story arc is one of my own. My twisted baby if you will 🙂
I bet you were nervous when you hit the submit button. Replace that nervousness with pride, you did good, real good.
The descriptive storytelling transported me into the dark morbid grotesque depths of the lair of slaneesh. True chaos.
Best 40K VO on YT by a country mile.
You're too kind my friend 🤘
@@AVoxintheVoid No. Thank you. Keep doing what you do. This is top notch. You along with others have helped me traverse the 40k world. Needless to say yours stands out the most owing to the VO and the music. Well done. I hope this meets you well.
This is grim dark AF. Wonderfully made. If this is you own work I salute you. Hope this rises to the top of the algorithms. Great to paint toys to.
Yeah this is my baby! Thankyou very much boss
I’m a huge Night Lord fan, and you r the only UA-camr who creates stories and does them justice! A touching back story to a night lord that’s unheard of. Please do more night lord work you shine in this category
That one injured and heavily mutated traitor guardsmen behaved almost comically in a way with how he was disappointed that the guy didn’t slit his wrists. You perfectly captured the Grimdark. I’ve been writing a Multicrossover Warhammer fanfiction that mostly revolves around Warhammer Fantasy so there is some hope but plenty of dark moments and a bit of crude humor.
Look forward to reading it soon Samuel, make sure you link me when it's done!
I wrote the character as an homage to the hills have eyes. A mix of stupidity and pure horror 😎
@@AVoxintheVoid I've done a few chapters already. But fair warning while there are dark moments there are also moments of calm in-between. Also, there are moments where it changes perspectives which has confused some readers.
@@AVoxintheVoid Yeah, Warhammer also has silly moments as well so it perfectly captures the tone of the setting.
@@AVoxintheVoid Would it be okay if I send a link despite the fact, I still haven't finished the story? Because I've already finished quite a few chapters. But I'm not certain if my tone of writing is suitable for this channel
Just a regular Monday in 40k.
No cool marines, no stylish villians, just the horrific reality that is the followers of the ruinous powers.
Truly horrifying is the slow, reluctant, decent into darkness only to avoid a quick physical death in the light.
This is insanely good and properly grim. I love these small stories told from the view of regular people suffering the hellish existence of the 40K universe. Great job.
I keep coming back to this one. It's gotta be some of the best Warhammer horror I've ever heard. You're an incredibly talented writer. 🎉
Thankyou my friend!
Amazing work! I usually listen to stuff on YT as I go to bed and fall asleep whilst doing so but this audioplay transported me into a different realm. The frame of mind that you're able to put the listener in is something else. First video of yours that I listened to was "Abomination" which set the standard quite high so I'm glad to hear (pun intended) that your older work is of high quality as well. 10/10 gonna listen to something a bit more relaxing now to catch some z's thanks very much.
Thankyou so much for the kind words jami. I would say abomination and all the gods are dead are some of the most proud moments on the channel. Glad you enjoyed them as much as I did recording. 🤘
You guys (and gals) truly deliver on the Grimdark. Bravo!
Thankyou so much! Your support on a few of the videos has been noticed and very much appreciated! Vox
This is stellar! Congrats for daring to put out your first own story, you knocked it out of the park! This is the best depiction of Slaneesh I ever read, fantastic job!
You don't understand how much messages like these mean to me. It was an absolute labour of love to write this trilogy and I'm really happy that others can enjoy my writing
This makes me glad the Astartes exist, for they, I feel will be the only ones able to stomach and do something against horrors that simply refuse to let you die until they're satisfied
Or will become the mightiest champions of chaos and spread it even more.
people underestimate the guard imo
@@isaiahd5396 No one underestimates the guard more than the Commissars
@@TAttila84 Just to get deleted if a Black Templar sees a vision and comes after them like a fiend seeking missile known as the Emperor's Champion to whack'em with that championship belt that Sigismund refuses to let go of, even in death
Cadian Guardsman literally train for this. Mere mortal humans.
From a heart filled story of an ogren to a truly beautiful nightmare …. A story is just a story .. it’s the story teller that makes it a masterpiece… start to finish I was transfixed on this stories unfolding horrors. What a treat again
Ty for your continued giving of such treats, I’m am without question hooked and can’t wait for more.
Thankyou sir. I'm glad I have supporters like yourself on the channel.
Wait…… you wrote this story ?
@@MrDrDeaGood I did indeed 🙂
I don't want to be captured by the night lords under the influence of slaanesh, this is terrifying.
Perfectly got the essence of Slaneesh, and the cruelty of the imperial regime too.
That gives me a huge boost. Thanks my friend 👍
@@AVoxintheVoid And I thank you for the amazing content you always deliver, hope the channel will grow in popularity, this is the quality 40k fans need and needs to know about.
Excellent work. It's insane how they would leave such a place this defenseless.... and how a crisis changes people so much. On to act 2. 😊
It’s a village on an agriworld, while the residents definetely deserved a better defense from our point of view, from the uncaring administratums perspective there’s much more “useful” places to place guard regiments. I also assume the attack was unexpected.
This certainly put the "dark" in Grimdark. Excellent use of description; you managed to convey the depravity without going overboard and leaving nothing to the imagination. I think Fulgrim and Lucius would be amused.
Means a lot coming from you Chester. Thanks buddy
It's Inspired to make my own Homebrew Chaos Chapter - a mash up of Barker's Cenobites and Slannesh Disciples - The Progeny of Pain. They fuel themselves with the suffering of all sentient species. Their " armour" made from the constantly mewling forms of various intergalactic newborns, spawned into a pitiless universe without consent. Humans of course being the hot favourite. They return to their God to be torn asunder and harvested before being agonisingly rebirthed to repeat their cycle.
That's amazing!!! You and me are on the same page when it comes to chaos corruption!!
You can rub a little Lovecraft funk in it. Go the way of Old Shubby. Maybe call the harvest/rebirther The Ecidna. A grotesque disembodied purplish hued psychotropic perptually pulsing, convulsing womb-vula like entity which twitches spazmodically in the Orgasmic throes of Transcendental Torture it's screams stifled due to lack of Orficial Outlet and reverberated backwards into an echo of endless Ecstacy. It is one of many of Slannesh's Harlots of Scarlet Suffering. An order of various hyper- hermorphidical herseys. The Progeny of Pain Serve as one of Slanessh's violent violations of virtues. And The God gets vicarious vibrations from their many Ravages Upon Reality.
Oh, that is inspired. The Prince of Pleasure surely approves.
Grimdark at its darkest! Great writing and great narration! Keep up the good work.
Thankyou Toni! Glad you enjoyed my work!
Have you written anything before? Because you did a great job with this story. Can definitely feel the grimdark influence and how you really doubled down on it, but wasn't overdone at all. You did a great job describing everything as well, especially the vision the poor farmer had. Just screamed Slaanesh. I look forward to listening to part 2!
I've written bits and bobs for my own enjoyment but never put it out into the world like this. I hope you enjoy the second part! Looking forward to reading what you thought of it!
You and Bladermort have a very outstanding dare I say masterful use of the inflections and changes in your voice when describing depravity
I feel as if you're a old man recounting the horror and terror
You witnessed I feel.as if I can picture you clutching a rag dishelved and emaciated
While you tell my guardsman unit what was done to you and your friend and family
Talking in third person to preserve your sanity
Powerful story telling Thank you
What an incredible message to read. Thankyou so much!
Grimdark indeed.
This is why we purge heretics.
I’m new to 40k all together, like really new. So glad I found this channel. Keep up the fantastic work.
Then you're up for a hell of a ride. Enjoy the dark.
Perhaps your best one yet! Background score and sound effects created an amazing ambience. Bravo Vox 👏
That means a lot as this is the first one I've personally written for the channel. Can't wait to get stuck into part two!
Who wrote this, yourself Vox in the Void? It’s brilliant, the truest thing I’ve read/listened to o my minds eye of the grim dark 40k horror
Hi Ben. Yes I wrote this tale myself. I am glad my writing had this effect sir!
@@AVoxintheVoid fantastic job mate! Poor wretched solomon! Just realised there is more than just this one video. 🤘
Hope you enjoy the rest!
This 3 part series was utterly amazing. Dan Abnett levels of writing here, and the narration was peerless. I was listening to all of these while on a long car ride and I was utterly engrossed.
I hated Solomon at first, then I finally began to empathize with him. This is one of those works I know I'll think back on from time to time.
This is an incredible message to read. This was a passion project for me and it's always fantastic to hear others enjoy my madness!
That's funny, I was the exact opposite.
@@Va11idus in what way?
@@AVoxintheVoid the longer he lived the more I found his continued, hollow existence to be an insult to the memory of those who sacrifice themselves to save others. I found him to be revoltingly ignoble, and every breath he drew further solidified that truth to me. In fairness, I did post this before I realized the other acts were going to follow the same character. Perhaps he will redeem himself.
@@Va11idus yeah check it out 😎 great takes though!
The cultists remind me so much of the crossed. If you don't know already just look up crossed comics
Definitely good for inspiration for this kind of storytelling. But, he warned.
Oh they definitely were an inspiration
@@AVoxintheVoid the shared imagery of the series combined with your storytelling ability is truly a waking nightmare in the best way.
I'm hoping for more content inside the ranks of chaos cults and similar stories! 🏺
I read that. You do have a point. Garth Ennis man.
Just discovered your channel today and been playing through the list. This one was genuinely horrifying, and it's the first time an audiobook has had me on the edge of my seat. Brilliantly done.
Thankyou so much! Glad you enjoyed it my friend.
I'm New to your channel and stories but these are incredible, really makes the mind visualise and feel each scene, "abomination" on particular gripped me. Amazing Work.
I keep rewatching this... It's enthralling
I'm glad you like it brother! I'm very proud of how it came out and even more proud when I hear about people enjoying my writing 🤘
I'm on like new game plus six on this.
GW would never write this well or this accurate. Great work!
Geese dude this is dark. I think you have really captured the personal horror and tragedy that being confronted with Warhammer's Chaos, would bring. You have my admiration sir. Well done and I can't wait for part two, which I'm going to listen to, right now. :) Thanks for your efforts, it is appreciated.
Hey! Thankyou for checking out my short story. I hope you enjoy the subsequent two parts. They are close to my heart as it is one of the only stories on the channel written by myself. I get a huge boost to read comments like these so thankyou again 🙏
@@AVoxintheVoid I did indeed check out the other two parts and they were awesome. I really liked that subjective nature of the ending. What our protanonist seeing his wife or was it a delusion of "She who thursts"? We don't know but you nailed it. Well done. I can't wait to check out more of your work. Thanks for your time and energy. Peace.
Holy crap this actually gives me anxiety 10/10
My work here...is done

@@AVoxintheVoid I have now. Did you write this?? Im in love. The atmoshpere of the whole thing is fantastic.
@@antonyhart6757 I did indeed my friend. I wrote this series and the skull takers narration 🙂
this is perhaps the best WH4K fiction series on youtube. really a different level.
This is a true compliment. Thankyou sir
I know little about Warhammer, but am an ardent cinephile and especially adore body horror and all the exquisite darkness that springs from it. You are extremely talented, both in your vocal talents and your writing. This reminds me a bit of Clive Barker, and your vocal intonations are reminiscent of Doug Bradley in Hellraiser (this is a sincere compliment). You've earned a new subscriber and an eager listener.
Wow what a story hope we'll get part two soon
Hopefully not too long to wait, gonna start finalising the story over the next week 👍
Yes!!!!! This is so Grim Dark!!! Love this.
Indeed.
In the grim dark stories of A Vox in the Void, there is only NSFW epicness...
Haha! I try my best 😉
Incredible first tale. I would dare say better that some of others written by long term writers. I would like to hear more of this type of work. Keep it up.
Really appreciate that George. I'll keep the story going for sure
Daemonculaba levels of grimdark present in this tale Vox. Cannot wait to see how this pitiable wretch's story will unfold in Act 2.
Congrats on popping your author cherry!
Binging everything you've done since I've seen one video and you and Baldermort are masters of the Grim Dark narrative art form doesn't even feel like hours while I get lost in your tales sir good show
I just finished listening to all three acts of this. Wow! I feel like I had just partaken in the audio equivalent of Hieronymus Bosch's "The Garden of Earthly Delights"! I was never really interested in Slaanesh throughout the years, but after this, I have a bit of reading to do!
Many thanks! Just to let you know that I'm not sure many official GW tales of slaanesh go as 'hard' as me 😜🤘
Jeez, your narration really elevated this already amazing story to incredible heights. Great work!
Thankyou! This is one of the only stories I've personally written for the channel, I'm sure the passion came through 😜
@@AVoxintheVoid That's some great writing man. You really know how to paint a scene.
Jesus, it’s been 10 seconds and I’m already uncomfortable. Well done
Now moviemakers could take note of this...True horror at it's finest.. No disney ending here.. What makes it scarier is the fact.. This reminds us of life and the lack of time we have and how little control over it we wield.I await Act 2 and Act 3.
They are already up my man
@@AVoxintheVoid I just finished 2 and am moving on to 3 now !
@@zazz69ed hope you enjoy my friend!
It reminds me of a transgressive horror movie and I approve.
We need more more descriptions of chaos like this.
Just discovered this channel and I'm amazed by the quality of everything; perfectly fitting atmospheric ambient, great voice and pretty much flawless delivery the entire way through and the stories themselves are just up my alley as a horror/sci-fi fan.
Truly appreciate your words of support! Glad to have you here!
Brother Vox you've outdone yourself once again. Truly gripping work. Hair curling at moments. Thank you for these great works! Emperor bless you with peace and prosperity.
Thankyou sir. I'm glad you enjoyed it! I was extremely nervous about this one as it was my first personally written piece I've ever narrated. I'm so happy how it's been received and truly have the bug now!
I'll be at work when this premiers, but I'm so glad that you've gone and written something yourself. It never really occurred to me that we might get fiction from you one day. Looking forward to listening later tonight. Hope the premier goes well 👍
Thanks my friend. It was a great experience to flex my writing 'skills'. This is a pure horror piece so I'm sure it won't be everyone's jam but I like my Warhammer as Grim Dark as possible. Take care!
Solomon is the biggest pile of human waste I’ve ever heard about. Can’t believe he left his wife to their mercy out of self preservation, I went to hold my wife when I heard that part. It’s just a story but I thought of how she would feel if I did that in real life and I almost wanted to cry. I could not forgive myself if I was Solomon. If that happened to my wife it would only be because I was dead.
That's a tad unfair. He couldnt move her in time. Though I'd have had her down there long before the madness begun. He simply didnt want to die. Roles reversed she's have given up moving him as well if it meant they both got caught
@@sijiadegoke No like you said he should’ve moved her there before everything went down, he had time. And yeah but considering she was sick and weaker as it was she had a better excuse for hiding herself. Whatever way you look at that was messed up. Imagine being sick and in pain and the shitty feeling that comes with it now being exponentially multiplied by torture and possibly abuse of the worst kind specially done to emphasize pain and discomfort as a form of sacrifice. Terror pain humiliation. It’s just a story but that man is a fictional pile of human waste.
Simp.
yeah couldnt agree more. this rat is as bad as the raiders just in a different way. That kind of betrayal is so black and disgusting
I raise my cup to this beaty. In anticipation.
Damn Vox. Well done, as it's f***ing creepy as a Cynobite.
Pinhead walk in.
"Wtf?"
Turns around and walks out.
Loving your content. It has that pure Cosmic Dread. Your channel's Handle is also some great branding. Keep on Keeping on.
Bravo my friend!! Loved every second of it!! You are a superb writer and voice actor!!! Keep it up!!!
Never heard you before this.
Blown away, looking forward to more, dark like this or dark in the normal 40k with marines.
With amazing with the tone and ambiance of sounds.
You made me visualize a story better than anyone else ever has! 👍 Damn good
Cheers Christopher! I've tried to specialise in the darker side of 40k and glad people like yourself enjoy what I do. Hope you stick around!
Yesss.. this is the way 40k should be, grimdark to the very bone and so haunting it leaves the reader pondering the dichotomy between good and evil, humanity and inhumanity and of course darkness and light.. Furthermore I want to feel in my heart the raw intensity of what life truly is and all the horror that comes along with it threatening to make even the brightest of flames flicker and die or burn all the brighter in defiance of inevitable oblivion until you transcend the mortal coil of humanity altogether and manifest into a burning star of all encompassing hatred and rage..
This is the exactly how I feel about the universe as well. I have always gravitated towards the darker side of any franchise I have an interest in and the GrimDark of wh40k that I grew up with has dissolved over the last 20 years or so.
@@AVoxintheVoid Damn I myself have only been a fan of Warhammer for six years give or take and yet the fact it has progressively become less and less grimdark overtime stings all the same considering it is the very heart and soul WH40K. Therefore I can't imagine what it must be like for a fan such as yourself who grew up with 40k only to watch as it strays further and further from what made it so special in the first place.. I honestly think that at this point 40k should be a part of the public domain so that anybody can draw from it in order to create their own stories, short animations, short films, full length live action/animated movies or TV shows and actually make money from it. Then fans could be treated to the truly grimdark 40k universe they once loved! Ugh I really REALLY don't like GW cause the AMAZING fan base deserves so much better than them 😮💨
To be honest John I've been a fan for over 30 years...Christ I'm an old boy now. I remember actually feeling scared when reading through old white dwarfs. I don't think it's even possible to feel that way when reading through modern lore etc.
Question? Could you please provide the soundtrack to this beautifully grim masterpiece? The music you choose for many of your videos is so good that I would love to just space out to it. I'm sure others would as well.
Should be in the description I think!
this is the essence... the horror that allows child soldiers desecrated with pain, hatred and inhuman indoctrination to appear as heros... its like drinking fine wine made from grapes plucked by slaves worked to death under the wips of mercyless masters in the twillight of a world violated by nuclear fire... its so horrific yet intoxicating... the absence of humanity and the palpable aura of despair makes me value humanity of today with all its flaws and i wonder how close we are to stories like this... thank you Vox for making me think, to slow down. by all their horror... this stories help me to silence the blender of the 21. century infornstion storm.
