Imagine killing for and praying to the Emperor so much that it becomes rote. Imagine sentencing so many enemies of the Imperium to death that it gets kinda boring. Imagine having to fight ANOTHER mindbreaking horror of chaos when you just wanna take a nap.
@Warmth you're goddamn right it does, along with any other place or time we choose. Their battle cries exist solely to be drowned by our devotion to the Emperor, and all who stand with them will be burned away by his glorious light.
@Corto Maltese imagine a bolt to the back of the dome for insufficient zeal. And, you know...the eternal shame of having failed the Emperor against his greatest foes.
That's exactly what I was thinking. When someone shouts "For the Emperor", I want it to sound like someone just shot their dog, cooked it, ate it, and then came up and shat in their cheerios.
It never ceases to amaze me how ornamental EVERYTHING is in WH40k universe. Ships. tools, buildings, body armor - all decorated to the fullest, and clad in seemingly undestructible ornaments, that look good as new even after a few centuries. And on top of that its not even "peak" of the power humanity had. Mind blowing everytime I even try to start thinking about it.
Damn then look at Halo with the forerunners and ancient humanity or the covenant and shit, foundation is also really good even the show. Has the best CGI I’ve ever seen on a show. Dune is also good but nothing like 40k
There's no single thing MORE capable of snapping me out of a cool moment in a movie, TV show, or game than hearing that god forsaken dumbass scream. I want to round up every sound designer who uses it, giggling, thinking they're clever, and lock them in a room with crocodiles to see if I can record something better for future sound designers to use.
@@mateuszbanaszak4671 One of the true gods of the Harlequins. He lives in the void, and can manifest himself by leaping into remembrancer videos and adding a fuckin awful laughable scream sound to otherwise somber moments. Whenever mortals have their suspension of disbelief shattered, the Willhelm god grows more and more powerful. He is destined to take over the galaxy.
Whenever i see scenes of people fighting Nurglite Demons and Plague Marines face to face, it makes me wonder how they're not instantly dying of hyper-AIDS
Yeah how is it an inquistor can violently bisect an aids demon splattering it everywhere and be fine but my life gets totally derailed by a cold from nowhere
When I read the Codexes as a kid, both the Tyranids and Nurgle were terrifying in how easily they could kill you. For the Tyranids- Acid blood, spores infecting everything and converting it to killer creatures- even at a microscopic level they carried super germs that ate you alive. Now when you see Tyranids in live action their blood is literally covering everything and nobody gives af...
We call them Tempestus Scions now because cool latin phrase. Also because "Imperial Stormtrooper" gives a very bad impression due to a different Empire of a different Galaxy
We need the Eisenhorn/Ravenor/Bequin series to become, at the VERY least, an animated series. Either that or give Cavill the reigns and let him go to work, as he seems to be one of the few people that actually give a damn about being true to the lore.
good cutscene, but i'm always aware of how in the lore whenever demons are about reality starts to go nuts. they should slap a psychedelic instagram filter or something over this and tortured screams and maniacal laughter into the background XD
Yeah. Plague bearers are like, mid level demons. Them being in the realspace shoud make it wonky and warpy either from their presence or from the reason they're able to enter realspace.
I feel like Chaos Daemons and the Warp in general are increasingly treated with kid gloves in newer W40K depictions, especially video games. They present daemons as if they're really nothing more than somewhat scary-looking regular physical entities of flesh and blood - like the Necromorphs from Dead Space, except less menacing - as opposed to beings of pure raw malign energy, which don't obey the normal laws of the universe. As a long-time reader of the Black Library books, this is really quite frustrating, as it really devalues the whole concept, for me personally. The Empyrean is meant to be something that's *feared* - not just by random Guardsmen, but by everybody, the Inquisition included. If it's not feared, because of its immense, overwhelming power, what's the point? Why is the Imperium in an existential battle at all, if Chaos and the Warp are just an easy walkover, like the villains in most Marvel films now? That's why some random Inquisitor beating up warp daemons like they're gretchins, just makes the whole "Chaos" thing feel like a bit of a joke, to me, at least.
@@shadow20262 All Chaos entities are manifestations of pure psychic energy - which is what the Immaterium is made of. The various Chaos gods are just the differentiated forms of the emotions of mortal creatures, whether it's anger/rage/bloodlust, sexual desire/pain/temptation, greed/thirst for knowledge/power or decay/suffering/death. Just because the psychic warp energy aspect tends to be more visually apparent with Tzeentchean daemons, it doesn't make them fundamentally any more connected/made up of the Immaterium then any other type of daemon. I get that Nurgle tends to have a very well established visual appearance, but my point is that this sometimes gets taken for granted, to the point that it ends up being more of a cliché than anything else and you lose the substance of the idea. I remember the amazing descriptions of Nurgle daemons from the books, they'd often talk about swarms of thick, fat bottle flies, a putrid smell in the air, twisted decaying bodies with hundreds of diseases present etc. I guess it just feels a little disappointing when that gets distilled down into the typical one-eyed green snot thingy with a horn coming out of its head.
Could have been great. Seems like the script writer did not dare to take the last steps toward madness and fury that the themes of inquisitors and chaos would require.
When you consider how scary even normal humans like Inquisitors and Sisters of Battle become when clad in power armor, it really puts into perspective what absolute beasts Astartes and Custodes are. Most humans of the Imperium would definitely see them as angels or demigods. And of course that's to say nothing of Primarchs which are, by every legitimate measure, ACTUAL demigods.
to be fair, inquisitors tend to be rich and powerful enough to be augmented almost to the degree of space marines, if not more, so its not just the power armour
While the Inquisition and my Chapter may not always see eye to eye, I do indeed agree with the message they preach. Purge the enemies of mankind, even if that enemy comes from within.
@@deathdynasty1628 not just a “fellow templar” brother, i am THE Templar. For it is in the name of the God-Emperor i dawn the armour of faith, i WEAPONIZE my zeal. For I am one of the Emperor’s Champions. And there will be no doubt in the mind of any where my loyalty lies. I will die before heresy lays its foul fingers on me. For I was deemed worthy to carry the torch of Sigismund. So with Bolter and Power Sword in hand i shall PURGE THE UNCLEAN!
Dude. For a second there i tought the Inquisitot was a Black Legion Marine. Only in 40k where the exact opposing factions can be confused with one another.
@jericho jones pretty much. Bosses could range from demons to OP chaos marines or aliens. Like a hive tyrant . Then all weaklings would be just normal fighters.
Nurgle is... Terrifying. Unlike pretty much every other sci-fi IP, there's no treating or containing his gifts. Actually, how the hell would this guy _not_ have been infected?
There are ways to treat or contain Nurgle plagues. Prayer firstly, the cheapest and most common. Fire is next. Purification rituals, or Mechanicus logic-canticles. Silent Sisters. Grey Knights. Living Saints. Necron Pylons. Tyranid Silence. Orks, many many Orks. And so on.
@@andrew3203 I suppose so, anything that can counteract warp energies significantly (the pylons for sure) could do it because his little diseases are products of the warp. I haven't really dug into the novels, but my understanding was that for the average human there's nothing you could do realistically. Now I'm wondering exactly how metaphysical his contagions are, as in if you looked at a specimen under a microscope would there even be much to see?
As an Inquisitor and likely ordo malleus he probably has some extremely rare and expensive artifacts on his person that grant him some resistance to nurgle. If he actually got hit it might be a different story.
@@wikipediaintellectual7088 You're right, at least for the spiritual component of Nurglite plagues. And that is a large part of those diseases. Being an inquisitor automatically implies an absurd amount of indoctrination and faith, like unshakable conviction kind of faith. So yeah, minus him being directly inoculated via some kind of wound he'd probably be fine. His exposure seems to just be ambient here
In a distant age of grim darkness, Where the stars shine with a bloodied hue, A world of glory and power persists, Forged in the fires of battle anew. Amidst the endless war and strife, Heroes and knights, their fate entwined, Steadfastly defend their way of life, As the galaxy trembles, they stand aligned. The Emperor, a beacon of hope, Champion of truth and light, His knights stand ready, bound by oath, To defend the realm, to win the fight. In the face of chaos, they remain serene, Subtle and stoic, with unwavering might, Their swords gleaming, their armor sheen, Defenders of the realm, their cause is right. Through the darkness they stride, As the enemies of mankind plot and scheme, Their valor and honor cannot be denied, the knights reign supreme.
What is the name of this inquisitor in golden armor? Completely fearless, the only thing that can break him is fatigue. For him, the size of the enemy is not important, no matter who, tyranid, monster, demon, alien, only the will of the Emperor is important to him.
After reading some of the Horus heresy..... just the bunch of plague marines would probably have been enough to retire that inquisitor and his retinue.
That person at the first of the video, anyone else think Mark Strong, the British Actor, would be great in this role and in the 40k universe? Hope he joins up with Henry Cavil!
I would probably fear these guys if they wore a goddam helmet in battle instead of letting the most important and vulnerable part of their body be exposed while fighting.
You'd shit your pants piss blood and barf up your own heart if you stood face to face with an "unhelmeted" inquisitor. Your feelings betray you and they reek of fear and weakness
People getting stabbed with one-sided chainswords is one of my major 40k pet peeves. I say one-sided because certain chainswords like eviscerators have the teeth spin all the way around the tip. But in this, his actually has a pointy bit at the end. I suppose you could stab something with it and use that as a fulcrum to push the teeth towards the target. Seems a bit less efficient though
@@epicwaba6424 My pet peeve is having a chainsword, and power armor. It's like using a plastic key on a gold encrusted door. There was alot of cost into that power armor apparently the weapons should also be just as glorious XD.
@@genericscout5408 Chainswords are actually quite powerful in the setting. Sure, it makes no sense, but they regularly chew right through Astartes power armor. Though I see your point. We see the Inquisitor has a thunder hammer at the end of the trailer, and he probably should have led with that. Those things kill tanks.
@@epicwaba6424 they’re more powerful in the hands of a marine but in the hands of unaugmented humans they only scratch up the armor. At least in the ciaphas Cain books.
Having only ever played Dawn of War II, I have the vaguest idea of what I'm watching but it's so badass!! Is that the captain's voice actor too? Was he promoted?
This depiction of inquisitors is really against the lore, inquisitors are NOT anywhere near Astartes and they can't do shit like dodge bullets, they are humans.
@@kamilpoznan6530 Hard disagree... it's not "inside" at all either. It's like imagining some dumb joke where in the middle of a cool scene someone looks at the camera and says "did I do that?" or something equivalently out of context.
I struggled hard to watch this. I love Warhammer 40k, but my critique. To much cutting and shaky cam. There was a cut about every 5 seconds. I phased out because it was hard to watch. Good models, decent animation and 40 ftw but yeah, those cuts almost gave me a seizure.
Инквизитор переводится как следователь. Он расследует преступления. И не его вина в том что в средние века главный инструмент расследования были пытки. Три раза подтвердил показания под пытками, значит говоришь правду. И если показания оправдательные, испытуемого отпускал. А тут нихера не следователь))
They do fight. Basically there are 3 orders. Ordo Xenos, Ordo Malleus and Ordo Hereticus. Xenos = deathwatch, Malleus = Grey knights, but Hereticus is usually the inquisitor and his acolytes fighting the rogue psykers or cultists. They are known to fight in battle too. But you would be right. For the most part they investigate and then call for the marines of their order to bring order back
All depends on the Inquisitor and their order. Some use manipulation to get things done behind the scenes all the way to some that only go from fight to fight at the frontlines. Full blown Chaos or Xenos incursions need a stronger approach where the best Inquisitors would be able to stop some of those with skill and or a smaller more important fight.
There is something fundamentally wrong with a 60FPS animation that only uses 10 FPS for the actual character animations. 1 man managed to make Astartes, yet an entire studio wasn't able to execute fundamentals??? Are they hiring college students to make these shorts???
Power armor isnt uncommon for high ranking individuals, especially inquisitors. Just like extensive genetic and/or cybernetic augmentation. So he´s the closest thing a human can be to a space marine without undergoing the procedure... or using a crapton of combat drugs like eversors.
@@markcurtis4465 humans can wear power armor but the thing is if it ever runs out of power youre pretty much fucked and will be crushed under the weight
Not all Inquisitors are equal. Some get power armor and Deathwatch bodyguards. Others walk around in robes tied with a rope. And some have Alpha-level psyker powers and can kill you from a few stars away with a word.
