All of the aforementioned points make me really, really worried about how Rogue Trader will turn out. We need more good WH40K games out there. Ever since Relic dropped the ball with Dawn of War 3 and GW started just giving license away to whoever, one really has to pick and choose the better ones (the Gothic Armada ones, Mechanicus, Daemonhunters and Hired Gun definitely stand out. Gladius too, perhaps, although I was never a fan of the Slitherine stuff). An RPG, too, which would be a first for the setting, so if it still maintains Owlcat's pathological shortcomings in pacing, design, and writing, it would be a mournful occassion indeed...
I have high hopes for Darktide as well, although that definitely scratches a different itch than Rogue Trader.
