i'm gonna get more of you to be interested in warmahordes. while not as grimdark and grand as WH40K, it is damn good take on steam punk fantasy.
and to get your interest, here is a nightmare on a horse, fenris.

So, one of the new worlds that have been leaked for KHIII is Monsters Inc.
Ichigo: What even *are* you?!
Kenpachi: Some say my mother was a train. Some say that I'm a rejected Godzilla monster too strong for the series canon. But everyone says: I'M THE KEEEEENPACHIIIIII!!!!

Star Wars 8 was........kind of disappointing to be honest.

The Last Jedi plays with a lot of story tropes and conventional narrative structure. There's a lot of quick build up and investment that may or may not pay off. At the end of the day, some parts of the story are unnecessarily bloated. Luke and Rey's story is at once profound, fanservicey and absolutely not fanservicey.
i shall explain this one.
you see those blades in fenris' hands? they are called fellblades. they were weapons created by the hostile invaders of immoren called the orgoth. the faces on the blades are always changing when you barely look at them. anyone who handles one is instantly driven insane by the countless whispers in a language utterly alien to them. i remember one story where a scholar was tasked with studying a recently found fellblade. within a week, he had slaughtered everyone in the village where the blade was found and he was rendered completely insane afterwards.
so khador, the warmachine equivalent of russia, found a stash of the blades and decided "hey. let's use these on our enemies". so they forced convicts to hold the blades, turning them into mindless berzerkers called doomreavers that only the greylords, khador's wizarding KGB, could control.
fenris was different though. a criminal who's crimes were so horrific, that his records were erased from public record. he not only was able to use two fellblades in battle, something the greylords thought was impossible, but he was strong enough to resist both the blade's curse and the tons of mental conditioning that doomreavers are subjected to. and his horse is no joke either. that thing killed 2 men before fenris decided to make it his personal mount. the only thing it seems to eat is the flesh of the dead, since it just wanders battlefields, eating the skin of the recently killed.
how scary is fenris? in the game itself, if he runs into enemy infantry, they have to do a command check to see if they will run away from fenris or not. that's right. this guy is so pants-shittingly scary, just seeing him can cause units to break formation and run for the hills.
