The series should have just consisted of 6-8 large 1000+ page books that follow a coherent story line.
Instead you've got a handful of writers purposefully dragging it out because they know they cant write for shit in any other setting or come up with their own.
Ayden Harris
Nobody gives a fuck what you think you stupid piece of shit
Hunter Wilson
It was probably before you were born I understand if you cant relate.
Matthew Nguyen
I didn't know BL writers were so easily triggered. Might want to work on your insecurity Aaron
Lucas Lopez
Why didn't GW hire professional writers for the series?
Jace Howard
Your idea sounds terrible, good thing you're not a professional writer.
Kayden James
Man, Neil's covers were ass back then.
Jack Ramirez
>Why didn't GW hire professional writers for the series? And have to pay them decent money? lel. Still, what I wouldn't give to have Cormac McCarthy write the final battle between the Emperor and Horus. Mother of God, it would be epic.
Aaron Rogers
My fucking negro.
Thomas Bell
Fuck you. That cover is great. Perfectly melds the Gothic Knights Crusader feel with Sci-Fi cosmic adventure.
Cameron Butler
Composition, sure.
The Space Marines looking like the cast of Reboot, less so.
Michael Jenkins
lol lad people other than I can see this. A good author doesn't bleed their insecurities, female dominance fantasies and self flagellation into their work.
Jordan Brown
I enjoy some of the books. I like some characters and like read stories about them. If I don't enjoy a book from the series, I stop reading it.
It's a scifi-fantasy series people, calm the fuck down. 40k has the same problem (some books being good, others being terrible) and nobody screeches about that.
Nathan Sanchez
fuck man, I would be so good at this. I'd write for fucking authors credits and exposure if I had to. Why the fuck won't anybody hire me?
Justin Watson
Dubs of truth
Aaron Cox
Its like GW is determined to ruin everything good about their own settings backstory.
Isaiah Rogers
>a good author So none of the BL authors then.
Carter Robinson
They still do
Cameron Long
Pick related was arguably the high point of the series and the first to become a Best Seller
Can't believe 2009 was 8 years ago....
Noah Adams
>40k has the same problem (some books being good, others being terrible) and nobody screeches about that.
what universe are you living in? 90% of /40kg/ is people complaining about how shit the writers have made the fluff
William Campbell
>Can't believe 2009 was 8 years ago.... After reading the Crimson King I can. That fuckers gone senile.
Gabriel Carter
It came out spring 2010, iirc. But yeah, 7 years. I mean Veeky Forums itself turned 10 years old this February.
Bentley Adams
Go away Aaron. But seriously, only abject fucking retards could stomach this garbage, and you're obviously one of them.
Luis Mitchell
Trashy books written very simply mostly for kids.
Problem is as the kids get older they either grow out of it and find better written books or stop reading.
So you keep on pumping out new ones for the new kids who have only just learned to read.
Evan Evans
The horus heresy lasted decades, in which scheming and skirmishes took place across thousands of worlds. You might enjoy looking at long lists of names of battles with losses and victors, but you can get that on wikipedia.
FPBP
Adam Wood
I'm pretty sure the Horus Heresy itself lasted only 7 years, granted stuff like the descent of Lorgar into Chaos did happen earlier and over the course of decades.
Hunter Parker
>horus heresy lasted decades
The Horus Heresy lasted 8 years you mong
Believe it or not Aaron stated he browses and posts on Veeky Forums regularly on the Bolter&Memesword forums
Blake Harris
He's also been pretty butthurt about Veeky Forums since they stopped sucking his dick.
