One day Owlcat will make an RPG that’s perfect out of the box, but 3 years after launch, it’s time to get disgustingly into Warhammer 40K: Rogue Trader

I’m not sure whether to feel sheepish or smug that I exclusively come to Owlcat games late. On the one hand, I feel like a fairweather fan of this underrated RPG powerhouse, one whose output and ambition is honestly kind of scary. But on the other hand: Owlcat has yet to have a single smooth…

Its first major build update since 2021 coincided with a slight price increase for The Indie Stone’s undead phenomenon, but this didn’t stop…
