Low Mein's Asylum Show

In this episode of the Low Meins Asylum Show, we dive into the dark, gritty universe of Warhammer 40K and how it might just be the godfather of modern sci-fi gaming. From DOOM to StarCraft, Halo to Gears of War, developers across the industry have borrowed themes, visuals, and even entire factions from the Warhammer universe. We break it all down: the history, the aesthetics, and the undeniable influence of 40K on your favorite franchises. Did DOOM really copy Warhammer? Was StarCraft just a remix of the 40K factions? And why does everything in sci-fi feel just a little bit grimdark these days? Tap in—we’re talking facts, history, and gaming culture with zero filters. Press play, share with a gamer friend, and welcome to the asylum!
