I'm not that surprised, considering the DnD fans have been on the Left ever since the Right falsely accused them of demon-worship in the 1980s. Spoony was the standard-bearer for them during the Youtube internet celebrity craze, and he fucking hated the Right. RPG companies like Bioware which were full of people who played DnD in their youth did things like sneak a lesbian romance into KOTOR, a Star Wars RPG game, and in their version of SW named Mass Effect, the ''tolerant'' politically-correct choices are considered the ''paragon'' good choice while being a human nationalist was considered ''renegade''. Mass Effect's wisest and most powerful race are the Asari, a race of lesbian space elves who reproduce without the need for a man, whose culture is all about tolerance and free love, with very few Asari embracing strict religious guidelines like the Justicars. The DnD culture has been infested with Leftists ever since the 1980s. Especially when that culture was persecuted by the Right on false charges, so it's easy for them to hate the Right and buy into the Leftist agenda.
But considering what that person says in the video, yes, this isn't the first time GW fucked the lore in the ass, this isn't the first time GW tried to gaslight the fans, and this isn't the first time retcons of this scale happened to 40K. People who are acting like this is something new ought to look at GW's history of treating both the fans and the lore. GW treated both like crap, refusing to create a solid canon for the lore, and constantly jacking up prices for the model kits. That's why it's so easy for GW to say ''there have always been female Custodes'', when the lore that says otherwise was never canon to begin with. Just fanon that they can throw away or keep at their whim.
If anything, the price hikes should piss the fans off more than the Fem-Custodes. That one mention of a Female Custodes can easily be written off as a practical joke played by the male Custodes, dressing up a Sister of Battle as one of their own for a prank. Or it can be ignored entirely by fans who write and make their own stories and continue to believe that all Custodes are men. But the price hikes are something that affects fans for real. That is, if they actually buy the stuff instead of just staying on the internet farming clicks from nerd outrage bait.

Here's a woke clickbait article from Callie (Carlos) Cadorniga of Distractify, attacking fans and comparing gamers to Zoe Quinn's "harassers".

Yes, the Fans are up in arms because of women existing. Which is why the Sisters of Battle are one of the most popular factions in the setting that routinely sell plenty of books of figures. At this point you have to just call out the malicious lies for what they are. This is industrial scale gas lighting.

I love how these people think D&D was created by these ultra hip hippie liberals Gary gygax hated homosexuals and was devout Christian most of the big metal acts were Catholic I'm sorry that evangelical Christianity which is about as Christian as that one guy who got caught snorting cocaine off gay prostitutes *****.
Also that's some history were you writing at its finest the first people to hate on D&D were feminist who said it literally encourage men to be rapists
and most of the anti video game craze came from bill clinton's vice president Al Gore wife
they were Democrats they just need this rewriting of history to pretend that video games were always filled with all these left wing idiots they were not
most of the video game creators of that time didn't care about politics and we're neutral
like all leftists 90% of their version of history is outright lies

To a discord janny, "bio-holes" are either handmaidens, lesbian unicorn sex dispensers or transmisogynistic terfs, none of which deserve respect.
However they weren't part of the regular set and there wasn't much fan demand

I do think GW want and is hoping that the amazon show causes WH to blowup among casuals and women the way D&D in the past decade. BUt doubt that will ever happen. With TRPGs. all you need is friends who play and some dice and book, has a far lower bar of entry, that allows women as casual players to just dip a toe in. In D&D you don't spends hundred of dollars then weeks, or even months building and painting you army, before you even get around to reading both the rulebook and your army book let alone actually play. There is no such thing as a "just get in casually" the money and time won't justify it.
Ya the Amazon show might pique some interest beyond the traditional demographic. But once they learn how much time any money it takes to get into it the interest in playing will 95% of potential new people will diminish beyond to "just liking the show."
Not to mention everyone at my LGS I try to get into playing Warhammer instantly loses intrest one the learn they have to build and glue models, once they learn that tidbit, they always tell me "fuck that, I'm not doing all that work to play a game". Vast majority of both males and females especially younger people don't want to do that.
No matter what GW does with WH just like model trains, fishing, woodworking, it will always be seen as in the niche "dad hobby"

The fact that people are shitting on "her" and the like/dislike ratio for the video isn't skewed towards the likes gives me hope.

They should have hired Matt Mercer then, and created a version of Tabletop 40K where you don't buy models or actually play the game. You just sit around a table dressed as Space Marines and do bad (actually scripted) improv. Also, they want to follow D&D to where it is now? They are aware the person who was in charge of it just had to resign, right?
Actually, they had a more casual newbie friendly game:
However, they cancelled it, had Fantasy Flight bring it back as a LCG, and then cancelled it again.

I had the chaos and tyranid precons of this TCG. As much as I liked the art on the cards, I wasn’t too keen on the gameplay mechanics. I did like that it was a way for 12 year old me to get into 40k while my dad bought my dudes over time.

Just got a Chaos Lord in Terminator Armor along with an Abbadon that I am going to convert into a helmeted version like the one in this photograph below:
It's always a good day for me when I get a new Terminator delivered in the mail. They are my favorite things to assemble and paint.
my five original guys are becoming pretty much entirely finished and looking a lot better after the varnish but I did overdo it a bit with this specific brand of matte varnish, I am switching to Vallejo matte varnish exclusively since this "Army Painter" MV is way too cloudy. Decided on very simple bases to get used to drybrushing rocks again. Sorry for my shitty camera
Even got some death company guys that I decided to paint in the same red-and-gold scheme. I did not like the box art color scheme on them. The visible wings on ALL of these blood angels are probably going to be painted "white marble" soon, since I am learning how to paint that right now and it's a fixture on many blood angels wings. Looks classy when done well too. Light strokes of blue coming forward from the blue hues chilling in the recessess...it's gonna be tough but I am excited. These guys don't have any of that on them yet.
I just have one WIP that is nearly done, the rest are just base coated for now with various details picked out.
learning quite a lot after working on these and the two black legion painted chaos legionaries + chosen kits I also nearly finished this month and have sitting ready to do the silver metallic edge highlights on. Learning many "don'ts" to the painting hobby, in rapid succession. lmao
Nothing "completely ruined" yet, though.

Problem is, Evangelicals were the face of American conservatism in the 1980s, so when those people persecuted the DnD nerds, said nerds defected to the Left. That, and Warhammer 40K was basically made as a leftist protest against Thatcher and conservatives ruling England, with the writers seeing them in the same vein as Nazis. So yes, tabletop and DnD have a leftist infestation that dates back decades. Half of it comes from authors who despise the Right, who wrote the stories for IPs like Warhammer 40K as a leftist protest against right-wing political victories, and the other half comes from right-wing Evangelicals acting like idiots and driving the DnD community into the arms of the Left.
Problem is, a lot of older right-wingers also buy into the ''violent video games cause kids to kill people'' line. Even more so than the Left did. Trump's evangelical base is full of boomers who see gamers as slackers and who want video games thrown out and blame video games as their first instinct every time there's a school shooting. The Left will put in ugly women and make your games pozzed as fuck, but they will still let you have video games. The Right would sooner toss them all into the fire and tell you to get back to work.

The Warhammer show will fail simply because of one, cursed thing and it’s not Amazon and their faggoty love of Seth Rogen types, no, the downfall of that show comes from over the ocean, from an even worse company. It’s an evil that has killed at least two men and ruined upwards of four careers.
It’s called the Superman Curse and Cavill is still the current bearer (though that’ll change), anything that man is in turns to garbage, I’m sure he’s great to talk to and I really hope he’s not a monster but the curse is strong with him.
Anyone who has put on that cape has been typecast, suffered career-death, had insane bad luck and misfortune and in the case of two, death, one a very unpleasant drawn out death.
Every project since MoS has been a disaster for Cavill and Warhammer will be no exception. I just hope he shakes the curse and never goes horseback riding.

"Mecha-Arbite. My three directives are to Smite the Heretic, Enforce the Emperor's Will, and Uphold The High Lords' Trust. I live to serve."
If we want to start bringing up misogyny, how about that time the GK slaughtered a bunch of SoB so they could use their blood as sacred anti-Chaos armor paint? I think it rivaled the infamous baby carrier as the most hated part of that codex.
Even in an entire codex of hated shit, it stood out to the fans.
