I get what she means when talking about WH40K but the impression I get from fans (Namely TotalBiscuit, but I've seen others) is that despite the setting being a horrible mire of bad people and bad things happening it's also entirely heavy metal in the most stupidest way and that's super fun. I mean you got giant space marines firing red hot bolts out of guns bigger than your torso and then there's orcs flying ships that are red because red is faster and somehow it actually is.

"Or do what I did and play the Eldar"
Knowing Red that isn't surprising
but I still mock anyone who plays Eldar
fucking space elves
I think my biggest gripe with this video was the claim that optimism is the belief that things *can* be ok while pessimism believes it *will* be bad.
That distinguishing word choice kinda felt like it came out of thin air in a pretensive attempt to prove something.
