I don't mind reading. But when it's just pointless exposition and over explanation for no reason other than to see how many words you can use in an essay, I tune the fuck out. You want to add that blather to a voiceover I can listen to in the background? Whatver. But having to read through 9,000 words of self felatting drivel just to parse out the few relevant points?

Just tell us you have no idea what it means to be faithful to the source material bro.

I'll be honest, I'm getting a little tired of the whole initial game release and then multiple DLC model. I'm not talking about money grab DLCs, I'm talking good, solid DLCs like Owlcat puts out. But the reason I'm tired of it is because I only ever play any of these games once, and so if I play the initial release there will inevitably be a DLC that adds a new starting race/class/town/whatever, and I will never see it because I'm not playing it again. Or if they add a new level 10 area but I finished the game at level 50, same thing.

This has resulted in me playing like 30 minutes of Rogue Trader (even though I bought the deluxe pass that includes all the DLC) before putting it down so I can wait for the entire game to be released...like 3 years later. I should have just waited to buy the GOTY edition or something for half price. Which is what I'm going to do with this game, even though this appeals to me even more than Rogue Trader does.

Am I the only one that feels this way? I kind of think I might be a rarity since so many people play games multiple times without any issue. Even if I had the time, I just don't think it would interest me that much.

EDIT: To be clear, I don't see anywhere that this will have DLC, but come on, we all know it will.
The only thing to do is start the cycle 3 years behind. Go play one you haven't yet and come back to this one. I started a Heretical run twice now in rogue trader and the last time I stopped because 10 hours in I found out another DLC is coming...MFer!

I really hated the HoMM side crap that you feel obligated to do in WoTR. Kept me from finishing the campaign. Do they have a huge side game in RT that you have to do?

Side game is ship to ship battles, but they are not that prominent in the overall game. You enter a new solar system and there could be one, or not. And only a very few are must do's. I actually found them pretty fun. There is also a ship upgrade system, so the more you do more you can upgrade. and your team gives bonuses for the different "seats" in the ship.
