About halfway through IAE 2024, things are feeling a bit less excited than usual. There are multiple reasons for people to feel a bit less interested in the event this year, but also some complications with ships that may have people rethinking their purchases and gameplay. I’m joined by 4 of Youtube’s brightest to discuss.

Exploration in space games can come in many different shapes and sizes, but Star Citizen has never comprehensively defined all the parts of its own version. I wanted to discuss the things we know, the things CIG has hinted at, and what the community has speculated may be included.

For this talk I brought together members of the community from touring, industrial surveying, deep space exploration, and org-based gameplay to discuss their own perspectives.

This is a speculation-heavy discussion, but you’ll find a good amount of CIG-sourced info about the gameplay as well. Hope you enjoy!

Star Citizen’s new character customizer offers players a great base for building their unique avatar. But there is a lot more that goes into customizing your persona than just that initial character-building session. Today I’ve invited a few creators to join me in discussion the new creator, what make a good one, and how customization goes beyond this tool.

While Star Citizen players have been expecting a feature update after Squadron 42 was completed, we didn’t know how or when it exactly it may happened. After this week’s Star Citizen live, we are aware of most ofthese additions coming in 3.23. Today I’m joined by Croncy, Olli43, and Beyond The Verse to discuss these sudden developments, and what they could mean for the rest of the year.

With another IAE over many citizens are walking away with new ships. And recent additions both concept and in-game like the Zeus Mk 2, Hull C, Syulen, & Arrastra have helped make November 2023 the biggest funding month in Star Citizen’s history. But is there a possibility of ship redundancy and overlap, and is that even a bad thing? Today me and several Star Citizen youtubers discuss the newest ships, and whether there is such thing as too many ships in Star Citizen.

Star Citizen has had a less-than-stellar reputation amongst casual gamers for most of its life, but with CitizenCon, Server Meshing advancements, increasing new features, and Squadron 42 reaching the polishing phase, it does feel like things are shifting a bit. I’m joined by fellow YouTubers  @SaltEMike , @HybridVAudio , @RedMonsterSC , and  @Farrister  to discuss recent Star Citizen news and events, and what it could all mean for the future of the game.
