Duncan Jones is back with a new movie, and it was made using Epic's video game engine.

    Fuck yes. So excited for this - Rogue Trooper is one of the best comic series and he needs a proper adaptation.

    It’s not addressed in the article, but I assume this must be rendering quite slowly, not in real time. Still, it’s impressive that a videogame engine has the fidelity required for film.

      Garona was an half orc (she gets called half breed in the movie), and was like that before the movie was even in the work. (Iirc they don’t mention the other half in the movie but we know it’s half draenei in the lore) The movie actually did a great job at respecting most of the lore and visuals, and it’s chokefull of Easter eggs for the ones versed into it.

          I do think it’s an argument to have with the creators of the lore from a notoriously sexist company. The director kept her appearance in line with their lore. She was seen as ugly and deformed from the orcs point of view because of how tiny she was and human like.

          The entire story was a mess here and there with so many nitpicks i could make. But honestly they stayed true to the appearance and feel of the world even if some like a sexy orc might be problematic.
