Awww, I missed the NIN chat.  Well, I saw him for the Self Destruct tour at the Riv (one of the best concerts I've ever been to), the next one where he toured with Bowie (forget the tours name), the Fragile tour a couple times (Chicago and Madison the next day), and With Teeth (where I lived next door to the Congress and my roommate and I snuck in between acts).

I mean, it's not like there's a little tiny dude in there pulling levers to move the arms and legs, right? Suit? Fit? The dude's Chaos, you think there's a difference between his flesh and his armor anymore?

We just walked in through that backdoor with penlights shining at the ground and walked right by everyone. They had the house lights on and we just walked right into the crowd and waited for the show to restart. We were also the two guys yelling from the second floor apartment above the pizza place on the corner if you were lined up early.

(Aside from the mandatory brainwashing, of course) They have a bunch of artificial organs implanted in their brain. Catalepsean Node lets them sleep with half their brain at a time like a dolphin, the Omophagea gives them the ability to absorb the memories from eating their enemies' brains, Occulobe gives them much better eyesight than a regular human, and the Sus-an Membrane lets them enter a healing coma. That's along with having their ears completely replaced, Neuroglottis implanted in their sinuses gives them crazy good taste and smell, and the Betcher's Gland that gives them the ability to spit acid

I like how space marines are so repressed that when they defect, they go all out monstrosity evil. Aren't there any atheist, middle of the road space marines that just didn't feel like screaming "for the emperor" anymore?

Thanks to reading 1d4chan too drat much (only way I can stomach the 40k universe), I know that there are, but the nature of 40k is that the Imperium basically has a "If you followed the dudes who turned into literal demon monsters, we're gonna splat you" policy in place.

Regrettable posted:Reznor chat I saw NiN in 2007 in Melbourne and some fuckwit answered his phone and started a loud conversation at the start of Hurt. Trent stopped playing and told security to get him out and then decided he had had enough and left the stage. I saw the idiot who answered his phone later on outside sitting in a gutter with cable tied hands while police tried to take a statement from a hysterical woman. No idea what actually happened - the dude's shirt was mostly ripped off, but he didn't have blood on his face or anything. Lots more goons like NiN than I expected, but I guess for most of us we're the right age to be heavily influenced by The Crow and early-mid 90s teen angst.

nerdz posted:I like how space marines are so repressed that when they defect, they go all out monstrosity evil. Aren't there any atheist, middle of the road space marines that just didn't feel like screaming "for the emperor" anymore? Most Space Marines are atheists. Chapters that actually worship the Emperor as a god are pretty rare. As for moderate, non-Imperial Space Marines, that happens but they don't tend to last long. First off, Space Marines don't grow their own food. They don't make their own bullets. Once they're cut off from the Imperium, their best option is piracy. Which paints a big old target on them. The Inquisition doesn't take lightly to Space Marines going off the reservation, and every time they raid a colony or ship, that just helps the Inquisition find them faster. Secondly, you basically gotta have something protecting your soul from Chaos. Like they say, an open mind is like a fortress with it's gates unbarred and unguarded. Even though Space Marines don't worship the Emperor, they still have the absolute discipline of the Imperium. Take that away and new thoughts can start to creep in. Not to mention that a life on the run from the forces of the Imperium is eventually going to make them take safe harbor someplace unseemly. Maybe not the Eye of Terror, but at least someplace where the light of the Emperor does not shine. So yeah, Renegade Space Marines pretty quickly either get destroyed or become Chaos Space Marines.

Night Lords are your edgy "believes in nothing" go-to who are onlt classified as chaos by virtue of their hatred of the Imperium. Otherwise they stay pretty clean of the tentacle hellfire poo poo. Memento posted:I saw NiN in 2007 in Melbourne and some fuckwit answered his phone and started a loud conversation at the start of Hurt. Trent stopped playing and told security to get him out and then decided he had had enough and left the stage. NIN was my gateway to industrial as a kid. Only time I saw them live I remember the bassist tried and failed to sock the guitarist for getting too close (or vice versa) and they noped right the hell out of there with no encore. I mostly remember that concert for introducing me to Boris, who opened. Deified Data has a new favorite as of 00:30 on Jul 28, 2017 |

Elfgames posted:Pst all of 40k is pretty monstrously evil in some form or another And, originally at least, the setting's writers knew it and were rather tongue in cheek about it. Somewhere along the line, the joke got lost except for the Orks.

Cythereal posted:Some of them. There are Night Lord daemon princes and possessed and others. Same for the Iron Warriors and Alpha Legion. Yeah, Night Lords as a group aren't pledged to any given Chaos god, and they don't have a ton of sorcerers so there's less openly inviting corruption or possession. But they're still pretty Chaosy. Their go-to tactic is to inspire fear in populations by skinning people and crucifying the skins. And a lot of them live in the Eye of Terror. Night Lords might be less committed to the cause of Chaos on average, but most of them are still running the risk of waking up one day to find out their arm turned into a crab claw.

Is there a 40k lore thread around here? Because this poo poo is fascinating. I've played the games but never the tabletop one due to just how expensive that poo poo is. Couldn't get into the couple books I've seen either, it just had abysmal writing.
