@@FutureAllenNL It's limited in scope, so it creaks at the seams when you play for a while, but it's super neat for what it is. Especially art/script/music direction, plus several actually new TBS concepts (like 'all-you-can-do turns').
This is literally the skull of an AdMech. His body has probably completely decomposed centuries ago. And he's still able to hold a lucid conversation because he had the good sense to slowly replace his brain with computer parts. My man.
wait, the way i understood it is reditus fell in battle against the necrons and that the skulls of loyal and worthy servants are turned into servo skulls by the admech + IoM, more of a symbolic gesture that they performed so admirably in life that their services are required even in death, rather than true life extension. more likely this servo skull just has cogitators that mimic reditus' personality somewhat? correct if wrong
canned piss i believe Reditus is the servo-skull who communicates to the magos the entire time. He’s described as “unusually chatty” for a servo-skull. He used to be the Magos before Dominus (the player). Now he’s basically a machine spirit (a.i.) inside of his old skull.
There is an incredible futurist on UA-cam named Isaac Arthur. One of the concepts that he often talks about is the eventual ability that humans will have to transmit everything that is within our brain, to effectively copy ourselves to a synthetic mind. I have assumed that's what happened to Servo Skulls.
@@jeremygriffin620 Nope, as that would break with the total ban on the creation of artificial intelligence in any form. Likely, portions of Reditus's brain have been preserved and crammed with cogitators and other archeotech to maintain awareness, similar to a Servitor. Synthetic minds are one of, if not THE, biggest no-gos for the Cult Mechanicus
This intro captures the spirit of the universe so well. All hail the Omnissiah. Who's your Sacred Oil guy? My last dude didn't exactly seem to be all that in tune with the Machine Spirits. Also could use a line on Holy Incense; thanks in advance. One Zero love; One Zero Heart, and all that.
With as many Warhammer memes that are floating around, I like that this trailer makes no reference to the idea of the Mechanicus being “toaster fuckers” or any other kind of goofy idea. It really establishes them as terrifying and dogmatic transhumanists that are well on their way to being entirely alien from humanity.
Kind of. They're also hidebound luddites who fear innovation and discovery, preferring the comfort of re-making that which came before in favor of any kind of advancement. Also stuck in a universe where their technology is highly dependent on the Emperor (and Astronomicon.)
The Mechanicus are, however, reliant on the Navigators, as I recall. Whether or not the Astronomicon is strictly needed for them to do their job, the Mechanicus are still somewhat reliant on warp magic to get around. Also xenos for the most part have trouble with the warp. Orks don't really navigate, just kind of drift in and out of it. The Tau can't stay in very long since they lack psychic protection fields. The Eldar have their own problems with it. And the Necrons have plot armor because they don't need to make sense.
The Mechanicus fearing innovation and invention seems to be a common misconception derived from their absolute refusal to modify STCs. They are fine with innovation and invention of more basic technologies; but it takes a long time for more advanced designs and theories to be approved as anything new needs to be scrutinized for resistance, or lack there of, to daemonic possession. What they truly fear is the the dilution and destruction of STCs, and rightfully so. The technology is so advanced that only one human is still alive that would begin understand the basic theory behind the principle of their operation, and he's been on life support for ten thousand years. That's assuming humans in general ever really understood Golden Age Tech, it's known it was mostly AI designed. That is also why the Mechanicus is so desperate to find STCs, and favor their use above all else. Their products, for the most part, are simply better than most anything they can hope to come up with themselves and they know it. Regarding navigation of the Warp. It was a significantly calmer place, though still hostile, in the days before the fall of the Eldar Empire and the birth of Slaanesh. Navigators were a product of the Golden Age and they could see for much greater distances in those days. After the Eldar quite literally fucked the universe into the hellhole it is in modern 40k; the Astronomican is required to cut through the turbulence of the Warp for long-distance navigation beyond hundreds of light-years. Otherwise Imperial ships would be limited to short jumps, as they were during the period proceeding the Age of Strife, like most other Warpfaring races. Navigators could still guide ships further than other species with out it, but even shorter jumps are made much safer by it's presence. That's what I remember anyway. It's been many, many years since I have been caught up with fluff. Things may have changed in that time.
@@EMan-1920 i had a speak with khrone just now and he said that he wants to destroy slaanesh becase it annoys him and everyone else,but i dont believe that

UllNeverKnowWho Largely due to the problems 3 had narratively. In addition, New Vegas’ narrative is in the same weight class as 1 and 2, and arguably manages to be superior to both due to greater accessibility. It’s not perfect, it does suffer sometimes with the ridiculous lengths the writers went to for the sake of trying to make Caesar’s Slaving Rapepire worth considering as anything beyond the generic “villain faction”, and tries to insinuate that the NCR has gotten worse since 2 despite none of their actions actually contradicting the nation’s character in 2, but the story has enough depth and nuance to it that three out of four endgame options feel like a legitimate choice to make for a wide variety of personal reasons. It’s telling that even when its flaws are exposed, its story still stands on its own merits.
I am watching this roughly 12 hours post-appendectomy. Rejoice, for I have been freed from one small part of the traitorous and vile flesh! Ave Omnissiah!
Why isn’t something like this the trailer for 9th edition? The DOW and Mechanicus artists and sound designers seemed to understand that the Imperium is actually a brooding, alien entity, as bad as anything else, and they really get across hopelessness and extreme power in a minute or two of monologue.
It's like a sanitized version of the DoW III trailer. It's actually well made, and it definitely does fit 40k, but it's not so pitch-perfect like a lot of the game openers have been.
I have to disagree. While a lot of those intros are real bangers, I still think their 9th edition trailer set the mood perfectly for the Indomitus box set and and the new edition overall. It is very grim and dark and would hopefully awaken interest in people who are new to the hobby.
I still can't get over this intro. In 60 seconds it took me from playing a game I picked up for cheap about a faction I don't care about because I want a different take on the XCOM formula I was in love with, to completely understanding this faction's attitude and beliefs and being really damn hype for them.
0:37 and on gives me goosebumps like none other "And you will beg my kind to save you... But I am already saved - for the machine is immortal...... Even in death, I serve the Omnissiah"
This intro... and the soundtrack of this game... theres nothing equal to this. It sends me the chills... and I cant have enough of it 0.o A masterpiece!
That Warhammer show they're making with Henry Cavill has to open with a monologue like this, it immediately sets the tone for the world, and the flamboyant dialogue gets people interested and excited.
Wish games workshop did more interesting stuff with their IP. Feels like we get crumbs from talented fans or the odd good game and then everything else is some scuffed phone game or huge failure. GW should find the people who sound designed this game and give them something big to do as the sound and music in this game makes it one of the most atmospheric gaming experiences I've ever had in 25 years of gaming, absolutely incredible.
0:31 Only just realized on my 50-ith watch that as you hear "One day the crude biomass that you call the temple with wither..." the power axe on screen has a cut wire. It hints at the irony in the otherwise compelling speech. Yes the crude biomasses will wither, but steel and machinery can also be damaged, and will wither over time.
Uh, I guess if *only* the audio was in, and I didn't know the name of the game, and if not for the final line (even in death i serve the omnissiah), I could see that.
They are quite the opposites, Necrons had to become machines forced by circumstances with basically no choice, and admechs whole purpose of life is to become machines.
I don’t know anything about this game but heard this sound randomly somewhere…. Now I come back to listen every now and then when I need to feel something.
Okay full disclosure I arrived here after watching a UA-cam shirt with a snake with robot arms and legs walk around with this audio playing over it. I’m glad I came here because this is both horrifying and BADASS! Is ALL Warhammer 40K like this?!
Can we get the guy who did Project Astartes and whoever did the sound and music on Mechanicus together to make a 1 hr 30 minute Warhammer movie please?
This is how you portray 40k. GW has shit the bed multiple times in the past, but whoever they got to work on this opening _nailed_ the atmosphere and the image of the Mechanicus. And they are honestly one of the more difficult factions in the setting to represent, in my experience.
Okay. This opening memes so hard I love it and will quote it till I die. I hope the whole team that put it together is proud of themselves bc this is up there with the best 40k media in terms of grim dark interpretation and presentation. That audio sting at the end too MUAH GAWD
You say that like the Tech Priests, if they didn't learn this en masse and after all the infighting, wouldn't just look at even that dude as the chance to either test their technology or acquire new forms of it? Necrons were at least cold when they offed the C'Tan and sharded and imprisoned them. Tech Priests look at tech the same way a seagull looks at food.
This is why I would gladly replace my human body parts with that of the machine. The weakness of my flesh disgusts me and I do crave the strength and certainty of steel.
Admech is the most expensive (money wise) model range rn, and units are cheap pointswise, if you want to play 40k as admech, you'll need at the very least around 600 american dollars, even just for 500 points worth of units

Thank fuck for things like this :) my christmas was really shitty, broke and alone, and the feeling I get rewatching this is the best ive felt today
Toaster gang is saved from Covid 19
That moment when you make your first pc
I listen to this every time I'm about to work out, it helps
What I love about the Void Dra-er, Omnissiah is that he is slowly turning humanity into more Necrons. Perhaps this batch will be more loyal.
Meanwhile, C'tans inside Tessseract Vaults: "NOOOOOOOO, PLEASE GOD NO!"
And Trazyn is busy stealing everyone's cool shit. The Blood Ravens better give him a run for his scarab dollars.
You say that like the Tech Priests, if they didn't learn this en masse and after all the infighting, wouldn't just look at even that dude as the chance to either test their technology or acquire new forms of it?
Necrons were at least cold when they offed the C'Tan and sharded and imprisoned them. Tech Priests look at tech the same way a seagull looks at food.
This is why I would gladly replace my human body parts with that of the machine. The weakness of my flesh disgusts me and I do crave the strength and certainty of steel.
This should be a plastic surgeon advert
This is why I love the mechanicus
Man, that intro is so grim. Love it
All the more reason I wanna give up my humanity and become machine
this single-handedly made me wanna buy and paint adeptus mechanicus models wtffff
Admech is the most expensive (money wise) model range rn, and units are cheap pointswise, if you want to play 40k as admech, you'll need at the very least around 600 american dollars, even just for 500 points worth of units
@@rileysimpson6536 fuckkkk this is an upsetting but important bit of info. Getting into 40k again is a bit of a pipe dream atm due to my financial position so ill probs wait until I've got good cash flow anyway, maybe it will be worth
I reject my humanity, JoJo!!! The weakness of my flesh disgusts me!!! I crave the strength and certainty of steel!!!
best intro, best music in 40k.
Covid got me thinking being a cyborg ain't so bad
When Grandpa gets his pacemaker
Unironically this the same speech Elon is gonna give when he upgrades the NeuroLink into himself.
One of the coolest intros I’ve ever seen
I just keep coming back to this
Back again, my Omnissiah.
This is dedication.
This is the game that got me into warhammer. A fantastic title drop
When the Nervodervergent dude cuts his finger once (that was me)
Twitter artist: You can't just use a machine to draw art, just hire me!
Ai bros:
the fact this man has the balls to say this potentially to a space marine and still live. amazing.
I have literally never played warhammer. I know absolutely fuck all about it. But this. This is fucking gold. This shit gets me so fucking hype and I have no idea why. Someone should use these voice lines in a song or something.
My Grandpa when he gets a hip replacement
When the engi of team fortress starts a religión.
When your the smart computer kid during a test and people don’t know how to use the computer
One of the best Warhammer games ever! I just love the Adeptus Mechanicus!
When you realise that this is the studio's second game
*pog face*
Anyone else listen to this before they start in the gym?
