    So this video has got more dislikes than any one I've ever published before! It's a bit dispiriting after putting a fair bit of time and effort into it.
    Maybe it was badly timed given how badly GW has done with the new codex, and the understandable negativity and fallout from the lore/rules changes. Perhaps I was a bit more positive than I should have been, but I don't usually find that being super negative is all that helpful for anyone new stumbling across the game/faction if they have chosen to get involved.
    I'm happy to hear any feedback on the video, but would ask people to save their dislikes etc. for GW if it is them you're annoyed at more so than myself! Thanks folks, and sorry if I've messed up here in some way.

    I don't usually like videos (mostly because I like to keep my "liked" playlist full of things that I really do like), but I'm just going to like this video to keep the positivity. To all people angry about their codex being crap, just ask anyone who has been into 40k for 10+ years (or, in my case, over 25 years); every army will have its ups and downs, and some armies are sadly stuck "being bad" for a while.

    • @brianhutton2370
      @brianhutton2370 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      100% this.
      saying that,
      A) downvoting shouldn't hurt the video. Any interaction should actually help it. (unless youtube has changed something , i am happy to be wrong here) - things change all the time, cant' know everything, so if you know otherwise I'm happy to be educated.
      B) I downvoted the video due to the lack of clarity to new players about how bad the state of the faction is, and how heavily you will most likely need to be leaning on FW kits. Furthermore, how hard resin is to work with for beginners. It isn't the cheapest faction to get into if you want a CHANCE of winning a game. It's overly positive and doens't reflect the current state of the faciton accurately, which as a new player who knows nothing could be a very frustrating experience 3-4 months down the road .
      So purely as a "snapshot in time" i didn't feel it was as transparent as it should be with new players, so was downvoted.

      According to 2 of the top 10 40k players worldwide it competes for the worst Codex of the last 5 years.
      Then again thats only a problem if you play competitively or have regular matches with a meta chaser type of player.
      If you play in your local friend group its easy to ask around if they want to test some shit army idea and then you have a blast with it

    • @DominatorLegend
      @DominatorLegend 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

      The biggest problem with the DA codex were the datasheets (removal of options of Legends phase-outs) and points (and subsequent balance dataslate), the later being easily fixable. Their detachments are still decent and they can always fall back on Codex Marines units and rules.
      The Custodes got it far worse, but at least they remain an affordable army with some cool big dong units, unlike AdMech (then again, you should just be 3D printing your stuff).

      The Custodes Codex is worse than the Dark Angels Codex, I have a Inner Circle themed Dark Angels list that should be playable because my list is going to be carried by a Land Raider Redeemer and a Storm Raven. I think the Custodes are lacking in anti-tank units in general. The other issue they have is they have limited tanks/transports, the best vehicle they have access to is the Land Raider.
