Welcome to Warhammer 40k Rogue Trader, the universe in which the only thing that everyone can experience is suffering. Everyone except you. Because in this game you can: - Feel like a Nepo baby - Loot poor people of their last possessions while being a Nepo baby (those people belong to you anyway) - Sell your body (and it's parts) to get companions - Touch all the things that should be left untouched - Commit crimes (and righteous murders) in the name of the God Emperor - Have a personal grandpa to proudly introduce you to everyone - Perform sacred rituals to make comp… machine spirits obey you. Hit them if they do not cooperate - Compose a team of individuals who will gladly murder each other behind your back (they try it at least once) - Fight bureaucracy (and lose) - Try the most unhinged playthrough others will not understand (being a decent person) - Commit yourself to BDSM relationships with someone you should totally avoid (the dynamic depends on you) - Get a stroke trying to level up all companions to level 50 - Use the power of friendship to tell some antagonist to kill themself (they happily oblige) And yes, it’s a 2024 game, not a 2007 one. 100/10, the game feels like forces of the warp that consume you and throw you out 130 hours later, with your life changed, mind blown, sleep schedule completely ruined

I just finished my first campaign and I... I don't even know how to put into words how great of an experience that was. I'm sort of in awe of the scale and quality. Whoever wrote these characters and dialogue is legitimately on another level. There will be READING. Yes, plenty of reading. But the payoff... my goodness. The detail on the lore, character development, the combat, the SPACESHIP BATTLES! Emporer protect, this game has it all. I've had this in my library a long time knowing I'd like it but was just never ready to take it on, it seemed like a heavy investment. It looked like work to play this game. I very much regret not playing the game sooner. This review doesn't do any sort of justice for this absolute masterpiece of a space opera. Do yourself a favor and jump in.

TLDR - If you like turn-based CRPGs and are interested in Warhammer 40k, I think you will like this. I also have 200+ hrs on Rogue Trader on PS5. Pros: Story, character building, turn-based strategy, music, choices that matter, surprises, tons to do, dark Warhammer 40k universe, voice acting, replay value, continued support by devs and new significant new content being released (even more coming), and more. (Very minor) Cons: Mild learning curve to understand game mechanics (e.g., "wounds" = health, how some characteristics like Perception affect battles, etc.), some difficulty spikes (if you explore a lot and engage in voidspace battles you will level up and be ok - also just be conscious of having a mixed group - tank, melee characters, ranged characters, support/psyker of some kind), some reading involved (voice acting is great and there is a lot of it but not everything is voice acted), once you get hooked it can take up a lot of your time :) This is now one of my favorite games and one of the few that I played a second time back to back. I am a fan of old school turn-based CRPGs and was interested in learning more about the Warhammer 40k universe so I decided to try Rogue Trader. I was hooked by the lore and then got sucked into the gameplay, strategy, and exploration. The game is very big and I enjoyed it so much I played through as Iconoclast and then immediately started again as a Heretic psyker. As noted above, I have 200+ hrs on PS5 and 160+ here on Steam and the replay value is immense depending on your decisions. The experience as a Heretic was very different from what I saw as Iconoclast and you can do some surprisingly evil things if you choose to. I am probably going to do a 3rd play through as a religious zealot once the next expansion releases. You do not need to look up any character builds to be successful in the game. I just learned the basics of the game mechanics and read the descriptions of the skills to look for synergies. I did not have any any issues in either play through. I did the second play through on the hardest difficulty. I have not played Baldurs Gate 3 yet (it's on the list) so I can't compare but I really enjoyed Rogue Trader and am looking forward to the expansions and next Warhammer game.

Thought I completed the game and then I got an achievement saying “completed chapter 1”

June 2025

Chapters 1-3 are 10/10s Chapters 4-5 are 7/10s This honestly one of the best CRPGs I've ever played and its insane the amount of love that went into bringing the Grim Dark future to life. My only complaint is that Chapters 4-5 felt lackluster, the first three chapters were amazing and rewarded exploration - but when you got towards the end of the game it genuinely felt as if it devs didn't know how to guide the player towards its conclusion. I'm not saying it has a bad ending, its actually really good one that varies on based your decision, but what I am saying is the feeling of exploration feels non-existent towards the end. You can still make your choices that influences the story, but just that feeling of freedom is gone is all I'm saying. Aside from that this is a very worth it experience and even more worth it if you love Warhammer. As this being my first Owlcat game, I can't wait to play their next project Dark Heresy because of Rouge Trader. The Emperor Protects!
