Thanks, that's exactly what i wanmted.Here you go - don't ask me what each class is like... I have no idea
Apparently there seem to be some core rules and additional rules/books for different games, Rogue Trader being one of them. But again the classes from @purpleblob 's screenshot aren't found there...
Ah, thanks... so the Adept seems to be the Psyker. These are the guys with magic, which apparently in Warhammer isn't magic, but "magic".
It's confusing to me. Since it doesn't match a book specifically made for Rogue Trader, perhaps it means that Owlcat Games made something different, or changed names as you suggest. I'll look at Purple's post more in details later, maybe the answer is there.
Yep, it's confusing. Imho this time Owlcat somehow needs to provide/push a Wiki or something else with information about the ruleset, because they can't rely on the information being publicly available.
No, adept =/= psyker.Ah, thanks... so the Adept seems to be the Psyker. These are the guys with magic, which apparently in Warhammer isn't magic, but "magic".
It's not more confusing than playing a game not based on a ruleset. In other words, 99.9% of them. I'm sure they'll explain all relevant mechanics in the game itself.
I certainly hope so because I'm more confused with this ruleset than Pathfinder ruleset - and I didn't even had to google anything for Pathfinder but with Rogue Trader, I wish there is a guide somewhere
I'm not a game developer, but it makes sense to me that tutorials/introductory scenes would be one of the last things added; otherwise they'd have to be changed a bunch of times as the game systems were tweaked.
Last time they had a part of the tutorial already in alpha I think, then they added more later during the beta. But this time the alpha doesn't include the beginning, players start at level 15, which probably makes the feeling even worse.
Yeah, Psykers seem to be all idividuals who are capable of using magic. For me the important thing is that I'd like to play as some kind of caster/wizard guy. Would be a bummer if that wasn't possible.
Well, yes and no. You're right for random cRPGs which aren't backed by an existing (tabletop) game which always had its rules. But that's not the case here. Warhammer 40k has been played for decades and it's obvious to assume that the rules used in the video game are somehow based at or derived from the tabletop rules.
Actually WotR alpha started in chap2 but it wasn't a big deal for many of us because we were already familiar with ruleset via Kingmaker.
If they do tutorial popups like they did in WOTR then I think we'll be in a good place.
It's obvious that you're making that assumption, but it doesn't change the point at all. If any game requires you to be familiar with a set of rules outside of the game to play it, it has failed as a game. I don't think Owlcat will fail in that way, any more than they did with the Pathfinder games. There will be copious tooltips and explanations and tutorials to tell us what we need to know to play their game, in their game.

Maybe it was added later then. I've only played near the end of the alpha, but I'm pretty sure the game started at the same point as the final release (and the beta), with the prologue.
I hope they'll flesh it out later, which is likely with Owlcat Games. I mean, they took a great care about the tutorial and the GUI in WotR, so I suppose it will be the same for Rogue Trader.
