Priority fixes

  1. [genre_clarity] Incorporate a subtle visual cue such as a hex grid overlay, tactical UI element, or isometric environmental hint to signal the turn-based RPG genre to browsing players.
  2. [title_readability] Increase the size or contrast of the 'WARHAMMER 40,000' franchise text so it remains legible at the 231x87 small capsule size, strengthening IP recognition.
  3. [uniqueness_polish] Introduce a secondary environmental or narrative element in the background that hints at the game's unique Rogue Trader setting, such as a grand voidship interior or alien world, to differentiate from generic character portrait capsules.
  4. [contrast_color] Brighten or add a subtle rim light or glow effect to the upper-left creature so it reads as an intentional supporting element rather than murky background noise at small sizes.

Store copy priority fixes

  1. [uniqueness] Add 1-2 sentences explaining what makes Rogue Trader's space exploration, voidship customization, or Koronus Expanse setting mechanically or narratively distinct from other 40K games or space CRPGs.
  2. [feature_communication] Replace 'enormous number of possibilities' with specific examples of character customization options or progression systems (e.g., 'build your character as a loyal servant of the Imperium or a heretical trader' or 'upgrade your voidship with new weapons and crew').
  3. [audience_targeting] Add a sentence clarifying whether multiplayer/co-op features support the campaign cooperatively or are separate from the single-player story experience.
  4. [hook_strength] Consider opening the short description with a more direct value proposition (e.g., 'Command your own voidship and lead a crew of misfits through the Koronus Expanse') before leaning on developer credentials.
