It was entertaining - and very much in keeping with the humour of the home nation. I wouldn't be averse to seeing more of these little animations, particularly if they started parodying some of our better known fixtures; Fawlty Towers, Only Fools and Horses, Peep Show, etc.

 

 

To me it seemed like a 40k entry from The Hitch Hikers Guide to the Galaxy. 40k had a similar sense of humour once upon a time.

It was fun and funny. Legit got a couple of good chuckles out of it. Completely original? Necessary? Not really, but it was still fun enough.

I forgot to note one more positive thing about this. The classic angry vox grille style slowly replacing the Primaris crab face as the face of the average Space Marine.

Little harsh there, no one is upset, Art is subjective.

 

If people do not like or they love it it's up to them. I think most things here have been said in good humour.

We’ve riled up the puriteens, Doghouse! Run before they start tweeting clapping emojis!

Fun for all ages! chainswords not included.

 

What saved this for me was Richard Reed.

Is that the guy from the Fantastic Four?

I absolutely loved this!

 

For folks complaining that it isn’t 40K I would argue that the ‘Marines being humanity’s finest super soldiers; these are the many, many horrific ways they regularly die’ is more in line with the OG version of the fluff than we get today.

 

But yes, I loved that. Please can we have some for other races, GW. GSC could be particularly good.

A cartoon! Oh the humanity!

 

It was a joke hence the laughing emoji.  

 

Most people know that I rarely take anything seriously.

 

I've been trying to ween myself of plastic crack for forty years, it's not going to miraculously happen overnight just because I don't like a cartoon.

Finally watched this. I absolutely loved it, and the humour was up my alley. I'd welcome more like this for the other factions. Imagine a Attenborough style documentary about the various ork clans. One about the Tyranid organisms would also work. Tau need a funny propaganda toon

[Northern Walker]

Not for me. I'd rather GW spent resource on proper hobby stuff, and not waffle done better and funnier by other people.

I watched it with my son (11), he loved it. I think people forget sometimes that not every bit of content GW releases is intended for them specifically, its a big tent approach, theres room for this and Astartes 2 say to co exist.

To be fair to GW, this probably came from their marketing department, so came from their budget, completely seperate to the design studios. So this existing doesn't harm GW's other stuff really.
