Space Marine was heretical to the core.

It was a fun shooter, but it shat on the lore heavier than Peter Griffin after an extra large portion of Mexican food.

its been a while since i played it but i cant recall anything lorebreaking about the story

smurfs land on a forge world which is under attack by orks, you kill orks, you meet some inquisitor dude who secretly is a chaos worshipper, your character seems to be a psyker?, you fight chaos lord while falling down and supposedly you both die

Your protagonist behaves nothing like an ultra smurf captain. Also he doesn't die but is instead taken for inquisitorial interrogation.

What is name of game, and are these dedicated FPS, or just certain missions?

Name's in the title of the videos but first one was "Space Hulk" (really old for the Atari 3DO) and the second one was "Space Hulkeathwing" which is relatively new. There's been other's in between such as "W40k: Fire Warrior" (where as you might guess you play as a Fire Warrior).

I can be down with third person, but has to be good. I dont want one like Gears of War, or Mass Effect. I prefer more in line with the old desktop PC Jedi Knight or MOTS style third person.

Have you tried Space Marine? In my opinion the best W40k games so far (albeit that isn't saying much) have come from Relic software. DoW 1 and 2 were good. Space Marine was okayish. DoW 3 was serviceable.

But really we are talking about a licensed property into a game here (eg. Movie games) so these tend to be more miss than hit.

he was boring, as smurfs usually are

The first is the old-school Space Hulk: Vengeance of the Blood Angels. The second is Space Hulk: Deathwing. The first is a hybrid RTS/FPS, the second is a pure FPS.

Why they calling it Space Hulk? I sounds like a Marvel title.

Hulk like a massive pile of stuff, in this case- asteroids and old spaceships

I want a turn or real time strategy game where I can conquer planets, slaughter xenos and exterminatus.

Doesn't have to be that hard

Think master of Orion meets 40k

A Space Hulk is a conglomeration of ships and other detritus that gets jammed together and fused. They typically spend a lot of time in the warp and are a hotspot for weird shit, like daemons and genestealers. They are extremely dangerous, but can contain relics and important technology so they are always charted when they are encountered and usually have expedition teams sent to them.

Warhammer? I feel like its too bigoted with its theme of toxic masculinity and extreme patriarchy. I think they need to fix it by including more women, colored, and LGBTQ people. Its also offensive that they go on Crusades and is very intolerant to other species and cultures.

Apparently there's big news coming tonight.

Space Hulk was a board game released by Games Workshop set in the W40k universe - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space_Hulk

It's the most known spin off of the main game itself.

Space Hulk also has a connotation within the W40k as described in the posts above.
