It is my sincere hope that CIG provides meaningful and immersive missions that leverage all of the effort put into the lore. As of now, running bunkers provides a hollow experience. The only component that keeps me engaged is the ability to help other players.
The way the verse will eventually work, with all it's nuance and complexity has me champing at the bit for the future iterations of the game. It is already starting to gel, but with so much more to come, it certainly is a very exciting project to be a part of.
It’s rare when content creators in SC have such great production, if they bother to at all. Not only does your content have that, but what really sets you apart is your eye for truly original subjects.
I hope the lore does become important... Im a huge lore hound, and have been following SC for years, but have never gotten sucked into the lore at all. I hope that changes!
Great video as usual. We don't mind if you take Sponsors. They can really help with Buying New equipment like GPU, CPU, cameras, stuff like that. Keep up the great work
I like these short ones. If I open a video and it is an hour or more, I tend to put it on the back burner until I have more time. The long ones are nice when playing SC sometimes. I just have to remember.
I’m so thankful for all the SC content creators! You all make it so interesting to speculate and stuff while we wait for progress. Love hate this game and I want to just love it
I really want a Tevarin NPC co-pilot. My RPG homeworld is Elysium III, also called Vosca and so I would like to learn som Tevarin language. People have been known to learn basic Klingon, enough to converse with other tragic nerds and I believe that one day NPCs with advanced AI will exist in games and be capable of rudimentary conversation. That will be a truly immersive experience. 🦉👨🏼🚀
Seriously Bro WELL DONE!! These types of vids are one of my favorites from you! Dont get me wrong, your deep dives are legendary haha, theres nothing like kicking back and relaxing listening to your knowledge bombs drop for hours and just talk about Star Citizen😎.. I found this game by chance back in 2019(wasnt even the game it was one of there long cinematic trailers) and fell in love with EVERYTHING CIG had done, was doing and especially the direction they plan on taking this game!! But of all the content creators out there you and are by FAR my go to for my addiction to SC progress, background info, the time line, Lore and especially Theory Crafting!(HUGE LORE & Theory Crafting Geek myself). Sorry for the book but for someone like me who in all honesty hasn't even been able to play SC yet cause my computer is a fukin dumpster fire 😂 and wont run it(saving up for a nice gaming pc since) i live vicariously through you and others but cause of my high stress job your channel with the lofi-beats background is my relaxation while getting a heavy dosed fix of my favorite game, specs, progress, lore and the possibilities of where this will go. Thank you for all you do for everyone bro, never change keep up the amazing work!(Both of you..Mrs tomato) 😎🤙
My man, I'm happy to help! I'll gladly read the whole comment, and glad every type of content is interesting to somebody. These videos don't do as well, but it's great to know they matter to folks! Cheers! Thank you for watching :D
@@SpaceTomato well sad to hear those don't do as well brotha but then again RUclips is filled with youngins who wouldn't know a quality vid if it bitch slapped em in the face😲👋 😂..thanks for the reply✌️
The only thing I don't like about votes for in-game leaders and lore and such, is that I'm not in there. I guess you can't have everything in life, but still The same goes for in-game factions like the Overlords. I want to be a part of that
A very large proportion of gamers have never read a single line of LORE, from any of their games played or completed. Its just not a requirement. I watched all 3 LOTR movies....3 times, without knowing any LORE or major backstory, would having 1st read the Tolkien novels have helped, not at all, you can easily glean all you need whilst watching/playing the game, or movie, did i feel short changed or not had an enjoyable, immersive experience, again, NOT AT ALL. Lore is actually more of a hindrance, its not a good use total of your time, and merely a comfort cushion for the OCD
Nope! It's already in-game! It's being built over time. As I said, there have been uses of alien languages, reputation has been implemented, and mission givers provide background.
What I disagree about is that the lore and story in SQ42 is extremely mid. I'm really disappointed by how bad it was, it's very generic, PG13(don't mean nudity). They should have brought horror elements like torture, politics etc. They should have hired Game of Throne's author to write the script.
Nice video but I'd have to sorely disagree that the lore is done well. It is done average at best imo, there is story but that is only part of lore. Explanations for why game mechanics are the way they are would be required for proper lore. At the moment gameplay and story part of lore are out of sync quite often, and many gameplay mechanics have no immersive reason explained by lore. Unfortunately when you create gameplay and then shoe horn lore explanations afterwards, it will typically feel that way. If you don't explain those things your lore has many holes. I get many people are happy to hand wave things but for an immersive game you need explanations so you can create expectations for how things should function. But maybe in a few years time they will find a way to fix these things. Currently I'd say it is fairly detailed but contradictory and it is heavily out of sync with the game and tends to be driven by the game rather than the other way around or it is just out of sync and independent of the game.
@@FuriousImp The general flight model direction they are going has no lore explanation and will struggle to have one that fits well with current design. There are retconn requirements such as descriptions of how the reclaimer claw functions, or some retconn that's already done to pyro lore.
Funny enough, pretty sure the lore molds to the development entirely. But once they agree, the relationship is reliant.
It is my sincere hope that CIG provides meaningful and immersive missions that leverage all of the effort put into the lore. As of now, running bunkers provides a hollow experience. The only component that keeps me engaged is the ability to help other players.
The missions and narrative will be super key!
Bunkers is just a shoot ppl in elevators sim. Same with the towers, wrecks etc.
The way the verse will eventually work, with all it's nuance and complexity has me champing at the bit for the future iterations of the game. It is already starting to gel, but with so much more to come, it certainly is a very exciting project to be a part of.
The lore is awesome. Astro historian is a must see channel for that!

Rockin it, my friend. Thanks for the quality videos!
This encourages me to start digging more into the lore. I really have not read much in my 10 years of supporting the game.
Great video as usual. We don't mind if you take Sponsors. They can really help with Buying New equipment like GPU, CPU, cameras, stuff like that. Keep up the great work
Magnificent video. Very good production value.

These videos are all you'll get on this channel. Hope you enjoy!
Second channel is for the longer stuff.
Great job my friend!!!! Always so thorough and such a clean presentation. Thanks again
I’m so thankful for all the SC content creators! You all make it so interesting to speculate and stuff while we wait for progress.
Love hate this game and I want to just love it
if all of this ever comes together we'll have an incredibly cool game on our hands. Here's hoping CIG makes some big headway in '24!

Excellent video. Keep em coming.
Love these type of videos
Good watch!
I have hope with the sq42 release, people will get more immersed in the lore, wish we will get a halo level of immersion
Yep! Squadron 42 would definitely help!
The only thing I don't like about votes for in-game leaders and lore and such, is that I'm not in there. I guess you can't have everything in life, but still
The same goes for in-game factions like the Overlords. I want to be a part of that
Not being part of the faction is a bummer, but working with them is still a plus
That is true, maybe I can strike a sponsorship with Hurston Security?
Your channel is really underrated, it's sad that Star Citizen is so niche. Because with your video quality you should have millions of views.
The mere mention of Xeno Threat makes me shiver. Not for lore reasons, but reminding me of how terrible the servers were during the event last year.
Xenothreat are known to attack servers :P
Server meshing will hopefully make XenoThreat more fun
I really want to fight for the drink companies against the burrito companies
Thanks Tomato 🍅
Can't wait 💀
cool
Ok, now I want to know lore so I can pick the best home planet and missions for me.
Go to my videos page and search "star citizen cities", that'll guide you through the first 4 planets!
Like the topic!!

The fucking game is not out yet.
Do you comment this on every video about a game that's not out? lol
@@SpaceTomato no, only on star citizen and specifically when i know you read my comments.
Hey, whatever helps the algorithm I guess.@@varukenprime445

There are plenty of things that are NOT done well, surely. But I like quite a bit of what is in the game, lore-wise. Appreciate the feedback!
Could you give some concrete examples please?
