WHDH_Skulls_3_days_left.. Dark Heresy confirmed?

Think so. There are other people speculating the same thing. The image name confirms it for me.

I greatly enjoyed RT and spent far too much time playing the DH TTRPG to not get this if it is DH.

Looks like an amazing start to a crpg.

>The players assume the role of a group of Acolytes working for an Inquisitor, who sends them on various missions. Depending on the type of mission, the gameplay can involve investigation, combat, intrigue, or a number of other genres. Therefore, the Game Master can tailor their campaign to suit their player group. As the players work for an Inquisitor, most missions involve rooting out heresies or matters relating to them, but the breadth of the game allows for many other missions, including wiping out dangerous gangs, gathering evidence of corruption, dealing with alien threats or eliminating rogue psykers.

They pretty much already confirmed they are working on another 40k game on their AMA some months back. Now the question is if this is the bigger budget UE5 game they've been hinting at or it will be more similar to RT.

What if it's the Deathwatch PNP rpg? It's the same system and it makes you feel like proper Space Marines! Sadly, it involves a lot of combat, which is easy to fuck up in a CRPG.

Dark Heresy is one of the top contenders for "most well-fitted game for a cRPG that never got a cRPG"

Owlcat sent Mortisal gaming a package with a message/code related to the Night Lords Space Marines. A teaser for their next game ?

Maybe it is both, by that I mean game similar to RT but in UE5 engine with better production values.

Current rumor is Dark Heresy will be their next game. Maybe this connected to that?

So, for someone whose main understanding of 40k stuff is friends who were super into tabletop and games like DoW, what the hell is Owlcat teasing anyway?

Tomorrow is Warhammer Skulls, an annual event where Warhammer video game announcements are made. Some people are saying that besides the next DLC for Rogue Trader, Owlcat are going to reveal an entirely new Warhammer 40k game as well.

Each of the images they’ve uploaded since the first have teased one of the TTRPGs in the file names : Dark Heresy, Black Crusade, and now this is Only War. Only one not teased is Deathwatch. Might be trolling but man I’d kill for a Dark Heresy CRPG so I’m still hoping that is what they’re going to announce.

 

[Nirvash]

Hopefully they stay in the 40k setting, and also make a better battle system than the 5013053135130131 millions perks tabletop fuckery ill suited for a full party control.

Its Dawn of War 3-2

Nice. We might be getting another 40k cRPG. Lets hope it isn't using the 40k FFG ruleset, they did good with RT one.

No they didn't, it is still bad and unbalanced. It is needlessly complicated, irritating with constant same buffs every combat and whole momentum into OP abilities does not work.
