Still, his soul remained unbroken: he still had his honor relentlessly shining against the darkness and even reclaimed the greatness of the Emperor's Children of old - and ended up turning traitor marines to his cause and humiliating a creature made out of pure pride. That was undoubtedly one of the best sci-fi tales of all times.
From shooting mini blackholes from your rifle and destoying planets with an average space ships, to this?
The dark age of Humanity is truly upon us. Space Marine armour would just be your average grunt armour in those times. Sad.
Humanity was better off fighting the Man of Iron than this
imagine what the imperium could have been if horus wasn't bald.
warhammer is not about death, battles and war...
is about have hope, even with death, battles and war
0:31 The God-Emperor in this scene reminds me of Griffith joining the God Hand even though the leader of humans here is respectable compared to Griffith who became Femto
it's videos like these that gives a reason to why you're up at 6 am while having an exam tomorrow.
Seems like a perfect galaxy to me. Bar chaos
This makes me feel a feeling that doesent even exist
Can I just say it’s videos like these that make me appreciate the one of many positive things that the community of Warhammer 40k has, the many wonderful artists that help give the universe life and personality.
Police men swear to god: Inquisition
Loves seeping from their guns: Slannesh
I know my friends and I would probably turn and run: imperial guard
I grieve in stereo: mechanicus
The stereo sounds strange: necrons
The stereo sounds strange: Tzeench
When you get out of bed: Necrons
God, I am listening to this for already few hundred times
The nobility of the imperial dream vs its grim dark reality
1:15 that's the sickest bit for me. Oh man I'd love to pilot one if those😎
Well... Your body would rapidly deteriorate... does it still sound appealing?
@@davisdf3064 crushing the enemies of the imperium in mankind's strongest weapons it would be the role of a titan pilot is extremely important
"Giddy wih delight. Seeing whats to come" - it captures perfectly how you feel when you start reading the Horus Heresy book 1 where everything is so great and humanity is prospering... but you also know 40k, so you know what is to come and the image of the dead
The legionaries have two hearts so that they can love their emperor with double the force
Reject "The Imperial Creed", embrace *THE IMPERIAL TRUTH* .
Welcome to the Warhammer 40K fandom, you will either find a guy that gets 0 bitches, or the biggest Chad on this planet.
This is more depressing when you realize that most of this stuff happened in 30k
me who never played warhammer before: wow this lore is so epic
A universe of overpowered technology and magic is pretty awesome isn't it?
Even the 40k fandom itself is not free from the taint of the warp.
FOR THE EMPEROR
1:21 hits hard though
Reject women, embrace the Imperium
But what about the sisters of battle it's an entire Battalion full of female super soldiers I have achieved ultimate erection
There is no greater faith than that in a lost cause
This is probably what contempter dreadnoughts think about when they see how the imperium is now
Aaah this hits me in the feels just as bad as Sanguinius fall.
Filthy traitor: hOw DoEs iT fEeL tO dIe FoR a DyInG iMpErIuM aNd HuMaNiTy?
Chad Loyalist: *E U P H O R I C*
Why does this make me feel nostalgic for the grim dark future that has yet to come?
The magic pain glove has allowed me to endure no small measure of suffering in my search for enlightenment. This however, was enlightenment enough.
This, was E U P H O R I C.
The best time in human history (beside The Golden Age of Technology) is from unification wars on Holy Terra till the start of Horus Heresy.
For who tho? Because it wasn’t really that great
Yeah gotta agree with the above person.
It was a damn sight better than the modern Imperium but by god is it a shadow of the DAoT.
Not really, if you were some regular guy you'd still suffer in a hiveworld
Nah, the Imperium always sucked. The Emperor is no hero and the Horus Heresy is a testament to that. Hive worlds were always shit, they never stopped doing absolutelly horrible shit like servitors, noone has rights, the Imperium was taking planeta over by force and every planet was to be under the Imperium's huge and absolutelly pretentious boots... Hell, the only change is that they weren't fanatics, it was just some regular tyrant wanting to own everything because he had a big ego and tought he'd be the hero, but he rly screwed that up by treating his children like tools, huh? Hell, they even ruined the Interex and they were a sane and advanced society that dealt with chaos pretty ok without adhering to the Imperium's shitty dogmas.
@@lovebunny2652 Purge this Heretic in a instant.
God rest TTS.
A little dark age that lasts _10,000 years._
"How does it feel to serve the Corpse Emperor, Loyalist?"
"Like loyalty, Traitor."
*aggressive bolter and chainsword sounds*
I love the shock on Corax's face when his talons are blocked by Kurze.
Despite being one of the darkest universes out there 40K is also one in which you can really feel the potent hope that stems from people like the primarchs and the emperor
The Warlord titan is a big as you should be on this platform
Why is this actually making me cry...
Heretic: "You're really going to die for a corpse upon a throne?"
*Sudden booms and high pitch screams from dozens of drop pods breaking through the atmosphere.
Guardsman: "Someone is."
The imperium lives as long as a single man is willing to stand for humanity.
Not even dying will saving you from suffering in this universe.
¡¡¡ FOR THE EMPEROR !!!
...Hand me my Lasgun...
Fix bayonets
@@joaopedrodebarrosdaeira5466 That's the spirit Guardsman...
Nah I'll give you an Earthshaker
@@comradekenobi6908 the marching footsteps of billions of guardsmen will shake the earth enough, enough to tremble our enemies with fear.
@@joaopedrodebarrosdaeira5466 unless its the filthy Tyranids! Ever seen the size of one of those things? 😄
This must be a little inkling of how guilliman felt after waking up
Roboute Guilliman in the 40K: father........sorry
I'm not gona cry!.. I am... Not... Gona.....
He may not exist, but I would gladly fight and die for a chance to change history in his favour.
Funny thing you added the Thunder Warriors considering what happened
Me explaining 40k lore be like
The enemies of man are many, but man’s power and spirit are indomitable. May the agents of chaos, the xeno and the heretic all fall to our might.
@IntrepidTit their place is on the top
@IntrepidTit Speaking from experience, eldar?
@IntrepidTit The imperium exists due to your species fucking up the galaxy. While you carry a few words of wisdom, your species prioritization of yourselves would probably lead to my demise. Good day
@IntrepidTit This is the 40k community. Enjoy.
Simple as
Да, да да, маленькая темная эпоха...длительностью более 10000 тысяч лет
