I did a research paper this summer on this subreddit and there was a published study that found that 74% of attacks on Reddit came from 1% of source subreddits. I assume that subs like r/Drama are the 1%.
look at shit like this dude and tell me this reminds you more of warhammer than of aliens
or just click on terran units like 90% of their lines are a straight up movie quote
starcraft=warhammer is a meme
theres literally zero similarities between terrans and the imperium outside of their space marines looking somewhat similiar aesthetically, and even then, terran space marines are basically just worthless convicts used as cannon fodder and nowhere near the level of literal demigod space marines of the imperium
when starcraft came out tyranids were still goofy rainbow colored space dinosaurs with guns (google tyranid first and second edition literally not exaggerating in the slightest)
the strongest case you can make is point out the similarities between 40ks space elves and starcrafts ancient aliens protoss, but even then, a weak case, considering the three main factions in 40k are imperium orks and chaos, two of which are completely absent from starcraft
"but everyone knows blizzard wanted to make a warhammer game" yeah and that game turned out to be warcraft, as it was supposed to be a warhammer fantasy not warhammer 40k game, and starcraft came out like five years later, when blizzard was already highly successful because of warcraft 1 & 2
sure blizzard devs being 80s and 90s nerds were fans of warhammer and warhammer 40k and were no doubt inspired by these franchises at least partially, but if you compare similarities with warhammer and similarities with aliens the latter by far outweights the former
jokes on you my world of warcraft classic character just finished cooking a hundred nightfin soup while i was writing that post, time to make like 30g by putting them on the ah

Can’t wait for a female space marine chapter!
1 Stenwalden 2019-10-01
Isn't that a thing already?
1 slugulon 2019-10-01
Sisters of battle kind of fill that role but they're definitely not the same thing

Kerrigan was already a ghost so it’s really not to far fetched.

Its not like the writing quality of 40k can get any worse, right?
1 WeWuzKANG5 2019-10-01
The astartes videos on youtube are incredible, if anyone at 40k had half a brain they would hire the guy asap.
