Spoilers: Commorragh just isn't fun for me. Personal rant.
First of all I feel like I'm supposed to fail here. Everything I've put my stats into all game because they work well is suddenly completely redundant and I don't really succeed much of anything.
Secondly I really don't give a ♥♥♥♥ about Eldar lore, especially not Dark Eldar, the "cool edgy" kid on the weird upside-down spiky block. So everything that happens is just lame. All the dialogue is just boring as well and "ooh aren't I a pretentious ♥♥♥♥ who likes p a i n." Yeah well nothing pains me more than listening to you drone on, xenos scum.
Thirdly what the hell is this combat? It feels like the devs just gave up. "Here's an agoniser pain engine. It has 700 health and will kill a retinue member in two shakes of a can of pringles. That includes splash damage. It also gives this other 800 health enemy an impenetrable shield and we all love those." And then you ask if you can at least have some cover and stay a decent distance away and they laugh at you for suggesting such a thing. "No, you can't. The arena is practically empty, and full of other enemies with 250 health each. woo."

Anyway Commorragh sucks.

Dark Eldar are easily the coolest faction in the setting. Chaos done right (most Chaos worshippers are delusional; Dark Eldar are self-aware). You just have poor taste, OP.
I just don't like the murder-bdsm elves. They're just shock value and not really anything else and I don't like the way they treat my precious humanity.
The only good kink elf, is the dead kink elf.
The grab the elf-be-good revolver, and have a go at them!

I can certify as a Prodigal Sons fan skinning babies is pretty lame, I'd rather just glass the whole planet.

ye, that i never understood of these guys, torture, and well ... everything that could fit he description of man-made horror, hell ye they are sucker for that.

a tentacle ? eww ! yukes !


i always found dark eldar to be more wierd than orks... and i'm insulting orks right there

That just proves you don't know the Drukhari lore. They are doing all those horrible stuff to escape Slaanesh.

your assumption is false, i know they do it to try and avoid slaneesh, what i fail to see any logic is how it help them so. if anything they are worshiping her by doing so... quiet ironic.

anyhow here's something nobody need reasoning with, eradicating them to the last one.

They are either doing Slaanesh stuff or Slaanesh eat their souls if they don't. Don't know what is hard to understand here.

Not entirely accurate; Drukhari are pretty much Psychic Vampires. Their sadomasochistic habits are a result of the soul-devouring curse of Slaanesh; in order to sustain their souls, they have to basically imbibe on the suffering of other sapient species. They're not doing it in reverence to Slaanesh but to actually save themselves (and unfortunately became their own monsters, so there's little sympathy for them—they're evil, both as a product of their past hedonism and love for what they do). So you can trust a Drukhari will do something awful.

They don't have the luxury of Spirit Stones to hide their souls like the Craftworld Aeldari do, and this game does good in showing that the metaphysical differences between Drukhari and Aeldari souls is actually quite significant (when you find Yrliet in Commorragh you discover that she was in the slow process of actually transforming into a Drukhari).

Marazhai's Soulless quest best represents what happens if they go so long without it.

The Drukhari are actually interesting and are more than one-dimensional—it's just that Chapter 3 wasn't executed very well.

Yeah my sentence was badly put together there. I know they are doing all this only to save themselves. They feed on the psychic residue that comes from torture etc. in order to stave off Slaanesh to slowly consume their soul.
It's one of the worst levels in recent memory. WoTR did something cool and unique. There is nothing cool or unique about Commorragh, a garbage dump of a world.

Love the game but this level is tedious.
I thought it was great. First I put a bullet in the head of every Aeldari including this dumb one that tried to side with me, then I put a bullet in the head of every Drukhari including this dumb one that kept trying to join me. And then I unleashed Chaos on their house for good measure. Your turn ya little ♥♥♥♥♥!

Good times! My only regret is I didn't get to shoot more. The game was like "you have to leave now, go home" but I just wanted to keep murdering stupid elves for treasure. MFer I'm a rogue trader and I've found a cheat code to infinite xenotech, why would I ever leave?!?!

DEldar also used to be one of the funniest armies to play before JewDubs lost their plot with 9th (or is it 10th? 11th now?) edition.
We're currently in 10th as of June/July last year.

agreed. Alushinyrra was a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ since you had to toogle camera constantly in the place which were confusing but well imemrsed, after all this was a chaotic place but still it was well integrated.

commoragh is erh.. you know the feeling when you replay a game you enjoyed and suddently you freeze because you remember there is "THAT" place.

ye, Chapter 3 is definitely that place for Rogue trader
Chapter 3 was problematic as it felt really samey, tedious and the shock value of massive torture factories wore off after you realized the average living room here had three slaves with hooks in their butts formed into a sofa with fleshcrafting. Also, it felt really out of place, even if I get that the intent was to throw you out of you grand illusion of power.
in that sense i'd say that's how comoragh was to be expected, dark eldars do be torture lunatics.

the problem is msotly how they integrated the whole thing it came out of nowhere, and you can pretty much guess.

i believe the most disapointing here is the management of the camera during the whole thing, going from and to the same place a good 5-6 times, and goosh... once you get your equipment back manually put back everything to each every member of your party...

on a more personnal view most of the cringiest plot twist happen there like :

Argenta : btw i killed theodora

or

Yrliet : maybe i regret what i did, maybe not, simp a bit more and i'll tell you



being dogmatic as heck and still have to be submissive or die... did they really considered a dogmatic option during commoragh or it just intended for you to be at best icono/heretical in your behavior in this whole chapter ?


once i was done with that chapter i was wondering what's next ? high inquisitor gonna turn out heretical as well...

oh boy chapter 5 not only convinced me so but also gotta be the shortest chapter i've ever seen in my CRPG career. 3 systems to explore, 1 place to visit, 3 bosses annnd done.
