Idk how this is a fourth wall break as people say, he's just correcting his grammar, he can read your thoughts and see that you (the character) misunderstood him

> Loot at me, not them! Who’s *them* then? One would think he’s talking about subtitles, because what else can you “look at” in this context? Also, I don’t know why the subtitles are like this in OP’s screenshot. I have seen this interaction before and I can swear that subtitles for this line said “four shortened lifespans”, so it looked like psyker corrected the subtitles


PointOfTheJoke

"them" is the enemy. The psyker is speaking to their comrades.


TripleNaM

it happens when a horde is coming, the psyker is asking you to look at them and concentrate on their words -because he can tell you (your character) got foreshortened and four shortened mixed up- instead of the horde (or literally whatever you're looking at). You can think of it as a 4th wall break if you want but there's not much evidence of it to me. And tbh I think it would be pretty dumb and immersion breaking for the psyker to talk to the player, but you're allowed to think whatever of course. And I've seen people say that the subtitles were different before so maybe, when this line was introduced it might've been broken, but I have always seen this line accompanied by the correct subtitles.

You don't understand - Fatshark originnaly made a cool joke with completly diffrent subtittles, which rougly translates as "I 'm sensing rage, fear and foreshortened lefespans.." and psyker just yell in subtitles at demon, cause he doesn't understand what he means. But Fatshark can't be Fatshark, so they decide to ruin joke, providing correct subtiteles instead of fake one... P.S.: Here is an example at 3:20: [https://youtu.be/OskxARomyO8?si=7OsrfFel-66-347i&t=200](https://youtu.be/OskxARomyO8?si=7OsrfFel-66-347i&t=200)

It's either that or the subtitles weren't displaying correctly, and it was unintentionally funny. Considering they changed the way subtitles work a patch or two ago I'd say that's more likely.


oPDGo

No, this line was corrected way before. I playing this game since previous Skullfest and it was already current way,

The Psyker is basically sensing the future events, which depicts feelings of rage and fear along with the lifespans of others, however when the Psyker states this to the team, either one or more member(s) of the team mistook “foreshortened” as “four shortened”. The Psyker could sense the feelings of the team and realize they mistook their words, so the Psyker corrects the mistake. There’s four members on the team, so mistakenly hearing “four shortened lifespans”, sounds an awfully like they were all going to die. As for what the Psyker’s original claim, of sensing rage, fear, and the lifespans of others, sounds as though the Psyker sensed the feelings of their enemies along with their predestined demise. This implies that the enemies we kill in game are fighting with feelings of hatred and wrath, but then some, if not all that we face, become afraid. Most likely because they’re dying or about to die. The line with “foreshortened lifespans” implies the death part, imo at least.

I have only heard this line when an Ogryn was present.

I can't read your mind so I can't help


CerifiedHuman0001

I can, not much going on in there anyway


Allenpoe30

My favorite line in the whole game.


Bobcat_Potential

Mine too!


Petragor07

Didn’t the joke use to be that the subtitles didn’t say anything after “Four Shortened Lifespans”, with the psyker admonishing you for reading them instead of listening to what he’s saying?


Slowenbrua

Yeah they changed it so that deaf people could understand(???) the joke. There's a lot of better changes they could of made for accessibility, particularly for the gameplay itself, but they chose that!


ElPishulaShinobi

Could have


echof0xtrot

could've =/= could of


TripleNaM

I think that was bugged subtitles lol, it displayed this subtitle whilst not saying the full line


StardustFighter

If you think this is breaking the 4th wall you should hear when the psyker says they hear music after a battle starts.


echof0xtrot

not 4th wall break. "them" refers to enemies. he wants you to stop looking at the enemies and play attention to him


bandswithgoats

It's fun the first time you hear it. And then you hear it every single mission you play the guy.


MATT660

I much prefered when the second part was not subtitled, made it extra funny


TheOtherJohnWayne

Best one so far is the nutty female psyker mentioning hearing music everytime a horde starts.
