and the inquisition + grey knights look like bumbling idiots.

That's because they already are.

An inquisitor may have close to unlimited authority, and might occasionally abuse that authority to do something retarded. But doing something that retarded should at some point be regulated by other inquisitors stepping in. Especially when one of their main assets (grey knights) is involved in large numbers. The fact that this all plays out the way it does, on this scale, makes no sense to me.

Indeed. It is really retarded.
Attacking a First Founding Space Marine Chapter is really dumb. The Inquisition wanted to flex those muscles and got fucked up in the process.
Really, wanting to get rid of a First Founding Chapter (created by the Emperor Himself) is akin to taking a shit all over His work. The other chapters would have retaliated. Heresy 2.0: Electric Boogaloo.

The WH40k modern writers are less coherent than the average Chaos cultist. Look how Grey Knights decided to use Sororitas blood as an armor against "Chaos-possessed nanomachines" in a story by Matt Ward, supposedly (or so I read in 1d4chan). Despite GK being immune to Chaos anyway.

Matt Ward was a special kind of lolstupid. And had a massive boner for the Ultramarines. I'd say that he's also the starting point for the game turning full marine wank, and the subsequent knock on effects on the newer fanbase who've only ever known marine wank.

Ward is considered the worst GeeDub writer ever but that was before the newest dross about Erda.

Welcome. Since you are here, could you let us know what was the rationale on not having the Orks in the game? Plenty of people are taken aback by that.

I can't elaborate on the decisions made by the team, as well as give you any spoilers, so the only thing I can say is that if something is absent from the game, there are good reasons for this. BUT I'm here for your honest feedback about our game, so I'm gonna keep an eye on it. So, let's just pretend I'm not here +M

is this going to be another 50 hours of trash combat 5-10 story content game from you guys?

Sorry you didn't like our past games. Although we have introduced plenty of new mechanics and a brand new combat system in this game, it can be somehow similar to Pathfinder, of course
