Yeah it was my first real encounter with wh40k, and I really enjoyed it.
That said, I felt that act 3 massively overstayed its welcome, and act 5 seemed kind of vestigial.
In retrospect, I also think the RP and faction system didn’t really work given what it’s meant to represent. You’re supposed to be unimaginably wealthy, with the output of entire planets at your disposal. You should be able to get a basically unlimited number of anything non-unique. But the way it’s implemented means that your ability to actually purchase anything is still limited by the value of whatever junk you found lying around, in a way that is significantly less flexible than a traditional cash-and-vendors rpg economy.
Oh, and can anyone give me an in-universe explanation for why “scrap” continues to be a limited resource after Kiava Gamma and/or Vheabos VI?
Well, that all came out sounding rather negative, but as I said I really did enjoy it. Those are really my only complaints.
I’ve never been a super fan of Warhammer, but rogue trader is so fucking good. You can really feel the experience owlcat had built up.
