Evil Eye Posted September 21 Share Posted September 21 An interesting theory via Olden Demon on the actual identity of the plastic "Roboute Guilliman". Certainly a fun watch!

Moonstalker Posted September 22 Share Posted September 22 I like a good fan theory as much as the next guy, but jeez he took a long time getting to the point. There are some bits that I'm not sure he has exactly right, and I'm not sure whether it's him getting it wrong, new lore, or him failing to draw a distinction between old lore and new lore. Such as him stating that Guilliman's wounds were visibly healing - this was some of the teased hope for the future in the 5th ed Marine dex, one of those bits that was open to interpretation, where some people believed his wounds were healing. Something that should be impossible in a stasis field, which should cast doubt on any claim that his wounds were healing. And then that Guilliman had instructed that the stasis field he would be kept in be created way before he needed it. I don't recall that from any old lore, it was always just something the UM did when they got him home, as him dying was more of an issue of the poison blades his neck had been cut with than the whole cut was in the first place.

Wormwoods Posted September 22 Share Posted September 22 Look, I would love for him to be dead, Primarchs are garbage, but I'm not that lucky.

Indy Techwisp Posted September 22 Share Posted September 22 He's died Twice already tho, right? Once so the Ynnari Resurrection Ritual could heal his mortal wound and bring him back to life and once more when Big E in his "Totally not a God" spirit form revived him while screwing over Nurgle.

Seriously weak lore. Having Rob be an undead meat puppet of the Emperor's Psychic Might or Eldar Tech and Witchcraft, would be appropriate to the setting. Having Rob just keep getting revived by plot armour, is not.
