    Only two xeno companions and they're both fricking Eldar. They went from having no humans in Wrath of the Righteous to having nothing but humans in a fricking Rogue Trader game.
    I'll wait to see if the DLC actually add anything worth acknowledging and maybe get it on sale in 4 years.

      Complaining about almost everyone in your party being human in a warhammer game is just weird. You get an eldar solely because you are rogue trader

        In the original Rogue Trade game you could have a

        >Tau
        >Dark Eldar Kabalite
        >Dark Eldar Wych
        >Ork Freeboota
        >Ork Weirdboy
        The decision to only include two xeno companions and having them both be Eldar is 100% because some morons seethe when any xeno factions get any attention. There SHOULD be more than enough human companions that if you want to go full "kill all ayys, humanity first", you can. But the inverse should also be true.
        I want a gaggle of weird aliens to go on grim dark space adventurers with.

          Those all came with expansions though, and you still needed a permit for a xenos to be planetside.
          plus, it's still viewed as heresy pretty much anywhere, if the game wasn't set in the koronus expanse, it just wouldn't really work.

      It really would be hard to incorporate some of the more "friendly" xenos. How about a human tech obsessed ork mechanic? Or a dark eldar mercenary out for revenge against his/her kind? Or tau? Or maybe even a defective necron (it would be pushing it).

          I wonder if it would ever be possible to have a chaos aligned companion without breaking the lore. It would either have to be by making the "good" side of the chaos gods more prominent or something like a warlock situation where the companion is either an unwilling pawn in a greater design or using the chaos gods for their own ends.

            Not in the same party as a space marine, two Eldar, a SoB, and a non-Xanthite inquisitor. Chaos is some serious shit and it's one of the few things that even a rogue trader can't easily get away with.

              Tyranids might be the only common cause imperium and chaos would find common ground with (and full necron apocalypse maybe). But yeah, the narrative has to go full apocalypse levels of frickery for a chaos companion to even begin making sense. On that note, I wonder if a confused/separated from hivemind tyranid could be worked into an interesting companion.

                Tyranids that get separated from the Hivemind just become violent animals for the most part.
                The only Tyranid related anything I could see every possibly working on the side of "not eating everything in the galaxy" is a genestealer cultist who managed to figure out what would actually happen when the Tyranids arrive and realized they've been duped so they try to atone by helping anyone whose against ze bugs.

            The problem with Chaos-Aligned allies is that 99% of them start out with "I know these dark powers have destroyed absolutely everyone else who has dabbled in them, but it's cool boss I can totally handle it" and 1% are pure Erebus "Today I think I shall ruin everything on purpose" from the get-go.

            Which is honestly great fun in a Dark Heresy or Black Crusade setting, but its less of a draw in Rogue Trader. Then again, there's plenty of Traders who have done way more dubious things than have the occasional Warpist. Some have even survived the experience, so long as they're mindful of the First Commandment of Imperial Politics: Thou Shall Not Get Caught.

              I can imagine chaos sorcerers who get into Tzeentch because he lets them research dark stuff that is forbidden in the Imperium and dont necessarily get fricked by it. Maybe they also study chaos mutation as body modification to be better adept in combat or something like that.
              This is what I meant by not making all the aspects of a chaos god completely evil and irredeemable. In most fantasy settings, its accepted that dark/evil sources of power can be used for good but that is a taboo in wh40k, I assume because the imperium's point of view is taken as the standard and that is necessarily antithetical to chaos.

            There's plenty of secessionists, pirates, and mercenaries who are vaguely chaos-aligned in the koronus expanse, and a warrant of trade allows a rogue trader to do whatever he likes. I think there's plenty of room for someone not particularly religious from such a society to join up with a rogue trader.

      Orks and eldar are the only ones that really fit the bill.

      Only certain orders take vows of chastity. The
      Order of Our Martyred Lady, the order Argenta belongs to, is the only one explicitly stated to not, I believe.

    I played an play amount of alpha and It feels years behind bg3. Battles still take place on a 2d plane using the same character model graphics from the first pathfinder game.
    Meanwhile bg3 looks years ahead in graphics and presentation from dos2 and i can fully i interact with the environment for instance i thorn whip’d a guy off a banister in the big act 2 battle so he can be aoe fogged with everyone else. Every other crpg you literally cant do that. At best its just 2 planes with the only thing changing is a basic accuracy bonus.
    The leveling up system is too confusing until you really sit down and look at it and realize its incredibly basic. I still don’t get the point of many skills in a party game it just means i have one guy designed as the guy who gets hacking skill points and another guy get repair skill points or whatever.
    Idk im still excited even though im usually a fantasy gay its the only big rpg still on the horizon

    >no more following adventure paths written by paizo
    That's a huge negative. The early adventure paths are some of the best things written for tabletop, because it was written by longtime writers who loved the hobby. It is easy to be mistaken about this since it's known that later they "diversified" themselves, scooping up the girl that worked for ArenaNet who got all pissed off that a male replied to her on twitter, but early Paizo stuff is significantly higher quality than anything Owlcat wrote. That's why the NPCs for Varnhold's Lot are 100x better than any NPC in the game, because they were characters written by early Paizo and not goofy characters roleplayed by Owlcat's employees and gay lovers trying to have a quirky tabletop session to translate into the game.

    Owlcat has never written anything that was average or higher. I'd go as far as to say that their own written stuff is the worst part about their games.

        She's not the only one who's gonna be incorruptible you dumb Black. You're gonna lose both eldars, probably the space wolf and at least 1 human

          You have no idea if Argenta can be corrupted or not, and the same applies to every character, also

            You're delusional if you think owlcat will write fanfic about sob/Eldar, they'll follow the established lore and you'll be down 3 followers + 1 human because that's how it goes

              Argenta already has plenty of dialogue foreshadowing a fall to Khorne, Hieronymus was not upset when she vanished and eager to get rid of her when she reappeared with you because that girl ain't right.
              The Eldar will be interesting since we don't have much fluff on Chaos-following xenos, let alone undivided ones. We will likely have to kill them which I wager a significant amount of players will have done anyways.

          SoB has obvious foreshadowing for falling to chaos
          Space Marines fall all the time
          Dark eldar might stick around depending on how exactly the chaos route works

            Chaos Eldar have basically been squatted, even a deldar sticking around for a Chaos route would be wildly lore-breaking

    Owlcat screwed over the WOTR fanbase by cancelling the Devil path update without even allowing users to play new quests like they said they would in August 2022 and does not deserve your financial support for these gross consumer-unfriendly practices.

    As far as I can see they removed the Aesthetics of the sororitas because "boob armour" is not "realistic" in my fantasy setting where Space marines have literal ab/boob armour and orks shoot green lazers out oftheir eyes.
    Most likely gonna be "body type" choices and I would be surprised ifthey made all females troonys like dark tide did.

        Secondary.

        >It's illegal even for Rogue Traders to consort with xenos.

        They have the ability to do it outside Imperial space and inquisitors laugh at their permits anyway. Goodl luck brining xenosonto an Imperial ruled world secondary homosexual.

            Doesn't matter to an Inquisitor, at all. Only good thing about a Rogue trader consorting with aliens is the flammability.

              Gee, you know what happens when some uppity Inquisitor tries to mouth off to the Rogue Teader? Best case scenario, he gets told to frick off and return to the Imperial space. Worst case scenario, he gets a trip through an airlock.

              The laws that forbid most humans from interacting with xenos literally do not apply to RTs. As long as they don't actively work against humans, the Inquisition will not care. Inquisitors can even become Rogue Traders, and most often they're Ordo Xenos precisely because an RT's duties involve interacting with xeno cultures.
