Ya fuckin' ganderneck.
If you get some silly broken OP powers
They must not be very broken if they're OP.
um

they can be

If something is broken it doesn't mean it's just shattered, a gun that is broken in a game refers to how it breaks the game balance by existing.

so broken OP weapons = so overpowered they ruin the rest of the game/film/universe/book/etc
I don't particularly see how someone could believe that an intangible power/ability could be broken physically like a tangible object, but okay.

However, from the perspective of Galactus or his heralds, I wouldn't consider their power to be broken considering how it seems to do exactly what they want it to do for them.

As for the perspective of the reader, it's all subjective I suppose, whether or not shit is imbalanced.

No it's slang

A broken object =/= A broken concept

A broken concept ruins the balance of things by being horribly overpowered, breaking any kind of fair fight into a one sided slaughter.

Battlefield 3 has a nice example
You have flashlights with the power of a caged sun - they blinded everyone with no counter
This was broken because it mean nobody could see you if stuck a torch on the end of your gun

Whereas something that is just overpowered, like the M16A3, just ruins game diversity because everyone gravitates towards it.

His argument is completely valid. I was just using broken in a different context.

I'm not arguing semantics though, just highlighting which version of broken I was using since there seemed to be some confusion.

Sure thing, but I have a suspicion that If I had continued to try and really convey what I was thinking when I posted that, shit would have devolved into semantics. It's w/e.

Well I mean I got your point, it works quite nicely for galactus and his chums so I doubt they would consider it broken in the slightest.

And it is subjective too, because it depends an awful lot about what it's being compared to.

but yeah

With the sole condition that I get to exist in the 40k universe too.

Those tau motherfuckers are gonna have one hell of a shoah to deal with.
Well becoming a herald would boost you pass most 40k factions since the Power Cosmic = OP.
that's the point

If you get some silly broken OP powers (Although sadly C'tan > all APART FROM THE EMPEROR) then you can use them to help dig the imperium out of the stalemate.

Tau
Orks
Eldar
Tyranid infestations
Necron tomb worlds

Then when they are all buggered, just point the big guy to the eye of terror and tell him to go nuts.
After he's eaten all of them, the chaos gods will eat him and bewp.
Suddeenly the universe is a nice and clean place e.e

The cadians just need more pylons.
Chaos full Galactus is more powerful than the Chaos Gods >.>
So is the emperor though

Galactus needs planets with life on them to feed on.

Galactus can create planets as well as life.

What the fuck.

Does the process of harvesting planets produce suffering for those being harvested?

What are the finer details of a harvesting?

Galactus gets the munchies and sends a herald to warn a planet of his approach. Sometimes they can mobilize and evacuate. Usually they can't. Everybody living on the planet dies while he destroys the planet in question, but they're pretty much just a footnote to him. He does this to prevents an even worse entity from escaping his prison and using the universe as a condom.

Except Galactus can fucking create planets with life on them so he shouldn't even need heralds. Why would you demand your kids bring you food when you have a fridge right next to you?

You'd die because there's no longer a planet to live on. Maybe it's the explosion that gets you, maybe it's suffocation in the void of space, maybe you'd get hit by debris, I dunno. He doesn't give a shit about the people living on it unless they can somehow fight back against him.

Sorry I didn't explain this well. It's getting late and I'm struggling to keep my eyes open. Let me elaborate a bit, if you want it. Planets with life on them have energy that Galactus feeds on, not the life itself. That energy is what's making the planets capable of life, so they die as soon as he eats it, and everyone on the planet goes with it. Nobody actually gets harvested, any deaths are just a consequence.

See, Galactus is a cosmic being that ensures universal stability.

He does not care what you do with the people of the planet he is going to devour, if you as a herald feel the need to save them or help them get out of the planet then you can because Galactus does not wish for death of people but for the nutritious planet they reside on.

In other words, you can avoid suffering by using your Power Cosmic. Most heralds don't do this because they were assholes or completely clueless and void of emotions as the Surfer was before his arrival to Earth.
