All the choas gods are neither good nor evil. They're just manifestations of latent sentient psychic power.
The only pushback I would offer is that they're empowered by strong emotions generally. Like Slaneesh from love, or pleasure. Is that pleasure from non consensual sadism? ~~Sometimes~~. Mostly, lol 40k suuucks
yeah I agree.
However it would be possible to generate the gods from a 40k that was ordered differently, like a communist choas god that arose from an abundance of self actualization.
I kinda wish the writers would have a more nuanced view of Chaos, but Chaos just seems to be "spiky Imperium" and easily identifiable bad guys. Ain't nothing about the God of Death and the God of Life having a relationship being a mythical version of a circle of life. >:(
I'm always baffled by nerds on various 40k groups asking about what "really" happened in some event or other. And apparently that shit sells given the popularity of the horus heresy books. Bleh
To be young again. Looking back, what shit pit of a first online community to interact with
I remember "energy output of a turbolaser based on this effect of an asteroid being destroyed" with some spurious pixel counting. And how it would totally destroy the Star Trek ship. Or vs 40k stuff. Gotta make sure your fictional guys can beat up their fictional guys.
