Star Citizen is a complicated topic, and a $48,000 puchaseable item is sure to raise a couple eyebrows, as it has recently. The general gaming community, understandably, is a bit skeptical and taken aback by Star Citizen, so today Bethesda-focused Youtuber  @LoneVaultWanderer  was kind enough to join me to discuss the outside perception and misconceptions surrounding the project, as well as the controversy and general negative coverage of the game that leads to its reputation.

The 2 longest-running past times of Star Citizen are transporting goods and shooting things. Combat has seen a multitude of updates, but cargo updates have been minimal. In today’s episode I’ll be talking to industrial streamer Seggellion about how the profession has changed and stagnated, and what the future holds for space truckers.

If there’s one thing everybody in Star Citizen can agree on this year, it’s that something has changed. Whether it’s tech like PES, gameplay like salvage, or game defining systems like the cargo refactor, the game we are playing now is much different than previous years. But there’s more to it than that, the game is expanding it’s presence in the community and beyond. Today, I’m joined by AbdiYohan to take a deeper look at this change over the course of 2023.

One year ago salvage didn’t exist in Star Citizen. Now there are 3 methods of doing so, and tons of missions to choose. This change was quick, but it’s not over yet. While structural salvage introduced another step to salvage, it’s far from complete and polished. Today Dedleader and I go over the existing salvage gameplay, and how it’s expect to continue changing in the future.

Star Citizen has always had alien races in lore, but recently they’ve been having a heavier influence on the actual game. The Gatac Syulen is the first ship from a new manufacturer, and the first alien “starter” ship. Today I’m joined by YouTuber and ship reviewer Farrister to discuss the Syulen as well as all the other vehicles being released to Star Citizen at CitizenCon.
