"Warhammer 40K's Rogue Trader: A Satirical RPG Surprise Tops Steam Charts"
TL;DR Summary
Warhammer 40K, known for its satirical portrayal of the Imperium of Man, has seen its satire gradually shift towards celebration as the franchise has grown more mainstream. However, recent video games like Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader and Warhammer 40,000: Darktide are bringing back the classic satire of the setting. These games embrace the ridiculousness and campy nature of the universe while exploring themes of dehumanizing class structure and mindless zealotry. They offer a better medium to portray the complete version of Warhammer 40K than the tabletop game itself.
