Game News Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader Released

[luj1]

How good is it if you aren't terribly interested in the 40k universe? Basically just from a pure gameplay rather than lore standpoint.

Pure gameplay is... quite poor

Text dumps + annoying companions + basic combat

 

[Axel_am]

Coming from you I'd say that is a compliment. I have yet to see you post something positive about a game.

 

[Roguey]

OMG pleeeze let it be Shadowrun. I did like the Harebrained games but they were a bit barebones and an Owlcat Shadowrun would be much more detailed and lush.

Their next thing is a cinematic third person shooter, so are you sure you want that for Shadowrun?

Luckily you don't have to think, just try the game and see for yourself what a mediocrity it is.

 

[Axel_am]

I am playing it. I'm also enjoying it.

 

[Humanophage]

This is looking better and better.

Game is looking good, repels all the right people. Will try in 1-2 years.

Translation:
"What's the fun of making most of the followers in Rogue Trader non-romanceable? What endgame? What's the idea? Well here's literally the first three companions have no romance preferences. And the rest have restrictions. I don't get it at all. In Pathfinder with this matter somehow was richer, I did not feel the lack of sweet titties and pussies. If anyone wants to see all of them, there is a trailer of companions on YouTube.

I wasn't there, of course, but I assume the studio optimised resources this way. If so, they optimised in the wrong place. UPD they say it's all the fault of the copyright holder."

He does, he does... And when he does he writes about it all the time, sometimes even annoying some people with too much posts or threads. Pay more attention. luj1 is a very passionate gamer. Which isn't a bad thing, mind you.

PC Gamer suggesting that BioWare should've made a Rogue Trader game is wild, lmao. No matter how much someone might dislike Owlcat, we're not in the timeline where BioWare could've made a better game.

Game is surprising good for a W40k fan if too much reading isnt your problem.

 

[mediocrepoet]

Does this run on windows 7? if not pass.

Does it run on DOS 3.1? If not, pass.

 

[Azdul]

Does this run on windows 7? if not pass.

Kingmaker runs on Win 7/8/10/11, Linux and Mac. Wraithfinder dropped Linux. Rogue Trader dropped Win 7 and 8 and Mac.

It's called 'technical progress'.

 

[Lady Error]

So is it a buggy mess or already playable?

 

[Axel_am]

It is indeed

Spoiler

playable

.

 

[His Dudeness]

Been playing it for a while. Nothing special and kind of repetitive, aesthetically speaking.

Let alone a tabletop conversion / RPG for...... like twenty years.

They all run on Linux. They just haven't created a Linux-native version since Kingmaker, which I don't recommend playing by the way. They introduced a save-breaking bug in one of the final patches and never fixed it, so stick to the Windows version in wine/proton.

 

[Atlet]

Are Owlcat going back to Pathfinder now?

I think they've got Starfinder planned next. I've heard they have another big IP acquired, but no additional info to that.

Where did you read this?

 

[Axel_am]

I've pm'd you.

 

[Decado]

Give me 18 months to start a review, six months after that I'll be done.

Proton runs fine. About M$ win 7, just download linux and run with proton. There is no need to use M$ bloatware.,

 

[Kruyurk]

I am only p% interested in 40K, so I will wait for a (100-p)% discount.

 

[Mr. Magniloquent]

I ran Kingmaker native on Linux, and it performed perfectly with the exception of a one-time audio bug and a single crash to desktop at HatEoT. Wrath of the Righteous worked fine in WINE until I had my first interaction with Minagho. The cutscene bugged out to a black screen, despite audio functioning. I could even progress the dialogue with the keyboard; however, the game would eventually crash in a manner that resembled a memory leak. Once I switched over to Proton, everything was smooth without any issues. I even modded it with TTT. I expect to run this in Proton as well.

 

[Cryomancer]

I even modded it with TTT

How did you installed mod in Linux? And what TTT is?

When someone fixes psyker powers in Rogue Trader, I will play it and would appreciate a hint on how install mods. i tried to find tutorials but none of them worked.

Playing Rogue Trader native on Mac and enjoying it.
