Arch isn't all that bad. As long as they're making 40k content I'll keep supporting em. Although I think Oculus immersive writing and the character he portrays is really well done, and that is something the honestly no other channel has done. We may wait all month for 2 videos but Oculus's content is ALWAYS worth the wait.

If Oculus wanted to do another interview vid like the Iskandar Khayon one, "The Anchorite" is a Word Bearer who repented on Calth. He's still in an Imperial prison cell, sometimes giving advice to the Ecclisiarchy but mostly praying in solitude for the Emperor's forgiveness. Oh, and a suicide attempt also got him put in a Dreadnought.

I just watched a Majorkill video talking about 40k content creators, specifically long form, and Oculus wasn’t mentioned. How do we fix this? This channel easily lives up to the mantle of Lutien and Baldermort. It irks me that shorts creators get tapped but the glorious Oculus isn’t getting the proper nod in the larger community. I MUST fix this somehow.

@andrewlowe3231 11 месяцев назад

I do not challenge the accuracy of the great lore master's record lightly. However, if my knowledge proves to be correct, this thrice cursed legion was humbled at the city of Monarchia on Khur, not the world of Nuceria. Let this be tested against your records with the hope that the integrity of your great archive is maintained. Regardless, may you continue to bless us with your extensive knowledge for you truly have a gift, and it is an honor to receive it.

The idea of early Imperial Heralds resembling the Inquisition appeals.

@Bluecho4 11 месяцев назад

Who knows. Perhaps one of the Second Founding chapters to operate in the wake of the Heresy were Loyalist "Word Bearers" who never wavered in their faith in the Emperor. Having proved this loyalty during the conflict, were quietly renamed and folded into the bewildering array of Imperium assets during the Scouring. A group regularly employed, in relative secrecy, by the Inquisition for their unique talents.

The bit at the end with a glimpse at how emotionally taxing all this is on him reminded me of how much I love the way the character seems to hate what the Imperium has become but also recognizes that every other option is so far worse for a human in his era. Which in turn reminded me a quote of a character I included in a Warhammer 40k TRPG campaign (used a homebrew instead of any official game) based on The Oculus. "The Imperium is the best we have, but it can be better. It should be better. It has been better and if my life's work can make it even one iota better then it was all worth it. That is why I look towards the past. That is why I share what I have learned, and that is why I will continue my work until the day my corspe is recycled into starche for the parishoners at the Palace gate."

@lordfrostwind3151 11 месяцев назад

So, anybody in say the Custodese or the Emperor stop and think "man those chapter names sound awfully familiar in a really bad way?" I'm getting the impression the Emperor fundamentally underestimated or didn't understand what he was up against in regards to the Dark Gods, or he was massively distracted and or not paying attention to some really crucial stuff. Especially if he knew Colchis had only just been liberated from a chaos cult. I know secrecy was the Emperor's bread and butter, but of all the kids you need to have a special talk about the warp giving you a bad touch the one raised by a chaos priest would be the one that needa it!
