73s	[Music]
81s	[Music]
82s	I know technically the stream's supposed
84s	to be live like right now right now uh
86s	flying by the seat of our pants today I
89s	guys could probably imagine why so thank
91s	you for your quick patience then you're
93s	just like one second
95s	oh my goodness
98s	it's just answering some questions over
99s	on Reddit maybe we'll have some audience
101s	members join us to be able to refer to
103s	some things maybe that are sad in the
105s	Stream
106s	um I know that there are some uh
108s	questions out there already floating
110s	about release timings and stuff for
112s	various other users we will cover some
114s	of those details okay so thank you for
117s	your patience
118s	really do appreciate it
120s	Let's uh yeah let's get this let's get
122s	this game started that would be the best
124s	thing ever right that would be the best
126s	thing ever hello ladies and gentlemen
128s	welcome to the official 1.0 release for
131s	everspace 2. oh my gosh we're here we
134s	made it we made it
137s	oh wow
141s	wow
142s	it's it's what a day it has been what a
144s	week it has been what a couple of weeks
147s	um jeez I don't even I don't even know
150s	what to say I'm just like so giddy like
152s	I just wanna
154s	it's it's nuts it's nuts but okay all
156s	right I'm gonna calm down a little bit
157s	okay
159s	bring it in welcome ladies and gentlemen
161s	my name is Eric Schroeder the community
163s	Ambassador for Rockfish games the
165s	creators of everspace 2 which is live
167s	right now on PC so if you have steam or
171s	good old games you have access to this
173s	title I know that there are some
175s	individuals out there on Game Pass going
177s	wait where's the update now I do want to
179s	add some quick Clarity here all right
181s	just let's dive off into this direction
183s	I know there's some questions in the
184s	chat about it I know there's some other
186s	elements floating around there so Game
187s	Pass we pushed a different close to 1.0
192s	version through Microsoft certification
195s	it's still technically stuck in
197s	certification so I got information like
200s	literally moments before this stream
201s	that it's probably going to be close to
204s	a day until that's pushed through now
206s	this build was pushed through this not
209s	quite 1.0 was pushed through to avoid a
211s	very long certification process which
213s	could otherwise take like two weeks so
215s	you are getting it probably tomorrow
218s	okay which bypassed a lot of these other
221s	issues that we generally have and then
223s	the true 1.0 release which is like it's
225s	it's almost there guys like if you're
227s	doing Game Pass if you're concerned
228s	about starting a new save or anything
230s	like that everything's going to be fine
231s	I can assure you you can start the
233s	moment that goes live
234s	um that true 1.0 release that's going to
236s	tweak just a little bit more it's going
239s	to drop somewhere around a week from now
242s	so happy to provide that Clarity that's
245s	crazy times right now it's it's
246s	ridiculous
248s	um but yeah let's just uh
250s	that's how it goes so thank you
252s	everybody for being here I know that you
254s	could probably just be playing everspace
256s	2 instead and uh if you do that
258s	alongside the stream that's probably
259s	best honestly because that's awesome
262s	um otherwise if you're waiting for
263s	downloads or waiting to get out of work
265s	I'm hoping to provide you a sound reason
267s	why everspace 2 could be a game for you
270s	so this is going to be sort of an
271s	amalgamation stream of what it looks
275s	like from the beginning to some late
277s	game stuff to giving you a retrospective
278s	of how this whole development cycle of
281s	Early Access being over two years as
283s	well as full development being over five
287s	thank you
290s	I'm gonna try so hard not to just
296s	ridiculous amount of energy it's it's
298s	guys it's been it has been insane it has
301s	been insane
303s	all right let's uh let's get into some
306s	gameplay let's do something right um I I
308s	was thinking about this before the
310s	stream and again we've been jumping
312s	around on so many different things
312s	there's so many opportunities that we
315s	can showcase here
316s	um and what I want to do first is
318s	actually load up kind of a pre-save that
320s	we did
321s	um let's see I think I think this one
323s	actually would be fine I think this
325s	would actually be fine so this is kind
326s	of like the earlier game segments um
328s	spares and scrap
330s	um just to kind of give a way to move
332s	into this slowly all right we're gonna
334s	start with more of like hey if you start
337s	playing today if you do the demo
340s	um this is going to be kind of where
341s	you're at and the capabilities that
343s	you'll have and I just said demo
344s	speaking of that Adam I need you to
346s	pause
347s	um speaking of the demo the demo will be
350s	updated to 1.0 as well I could really
354s	use some clarity on a team member
356s	knowing when that will go live because
358s	I'm not sure if I've heard any news on
360s	that front so
362s	that would be great but we are updating
364s	the demo as well to 1.0
366s	so it'll have all the reflected changes
368s	accordingly as well the demo is live
371s	I've just been told thank you Casper I
373s	appreciate that the demo has been
375s	updated 1.0 so if you're diving into the
376s	demo you have all those respective
378s	changes right then and there
381s	good good stuff all right
384s	all right
385s	so uh let's go ahead and I'm gonna I'm
387s	gonna bypass this conversation because I
389s	just I want to get into some gameplay so
390s	uh we're gonna go with the short short
393s	version of what is other space too
394s	because where it's yeah it's so much so
396s	much here Aerospace 2 is a single player
401s	open world
403s	RPG
404s	with looting and shooting mechanics
407s	so there's been a lot of individuals and
409s	a lot of different shots who kind of see
411s	this and are like oh yeah so it's like
412s	another space Sim no it's less like
415s	Elite dangerous and it's more like
416s	Destiny Okay so change your mindset of
420s	how you're approaching our title just
422s	right out of the gate I know it was
424s	weird because you're like oh it's
425s	another space game sort of yeah but like
428s	we've got this narrative driven
430s	Adventure there's lots of places to go I
432s	mean the map which I haven't explored
434s	much in this particular save it's it's
435s	rather expansive there's over a hundred
438s	handcrafted locations you'll be going to
441s	and back from depending on what your
443s	particular tasks are and uh yeah what a
446s	what a wild ride you'll be sent on in
448s	this single player campaign
451s	um I also want to do one other thing uh
453s	which is I think I have this
456s	difficulty let's go up to
460s	nightmare
462s	because that's a great way to introduce
463s	everyone into the game seeing me die
465s	repeatedly alright
467s	uh but last but not least there are uh
471s	so many different directions that you
474s	can take with your play Styles here okay
477s	the story is more or less linearized to
480s	carry through and open up new places and
483s	you're not it's not like a Choose Your
484s	Own Adventure on that front but as
486s	things open up you can absolutely design
489s	entire builds around a ship that you
491s	enjoy around play styles that you love I
493s	mean the itemization here uh starts
495s	getting deeper and deeper the more you
497s	progress we're only at level five so
498s	you're not going to see much on this
499s	front I'll show you another save a
502s	little bit later to capitalize on those
504s	details
505s	but uh lots of different ships uh that
508s	you'll be finding in your travels that
510s	all do different things for example this
512s	bomber focuses on secondary weapons
514s	instead of having them as effectively
516s	consumables you use them up now it's
518s	energy based so your secondaries will
520s	recharge you can use them effectively
522s	infinitely uh you also have Vindicator
524s	which is basically your drone boat your
527s	uh Summoner class if you will a lot of
529s	people enjoy this one the striker oh my
532s	gosh this is your up in the grill of
534s	your opponent this is kind of a nice
535s	all-arounder has some good boost has
537s	some good Firepower good defenses uh but
540s	uh yeah it's it's a pleasant one this is
542s	actually the starting ship but we are
544s	currently flying uh just another visual
546s	variation because all these are
548s	modularly composed so the body of the
549s	engines and the wings are all unique
553s	I told you there was a lot this is this
555s	is the onboarding section everyone don't
556s	worry we're going to keep going uh we
558s	have the Interceptor this one is also a
560s	jack of all trades but puts a lot more
562s	focus on Firepower so if you want the
566s	guns and you don't really care too much
568s	about managing other things like yeah
569s	Interceptor is a pretty good choice and
572s	you know we also have a space tank
573s	because who doesn't like having an
575s	automated turret do the dirty work for
577s	you and massive numbers of hard points
580s	to just Slaughter your foes right good
582s	good
583s	excellent we also have a bunch of jobs
585s	and I'm still using the dev build I'm
588s	still I was I was gonna not do that for
590s	this live stream uh whoops so you're not
592s	going to see this many jobs uh this this
594s	is actually for testing purposes but
596s	you'll be able to pick up jobs you'll be
598s	able to shop for new items of course
599s	you'll be those will be dropping all
601s	over the place uh there's crafting to
603s	fill the gaps and where you're at in
605s	fact let's take a look at this we have a
607s	level one Marksman corrosion missile uh
609s	yikes let's go ahead and replace that
613s	um either with something we have down
614s	here that's much better yeah we're level
617s	five right now so this some of this
618s	stuff is kind of garbage like this cargo
620s	unit
621s	um so as you are dismantling things like
623s	we just did a moment ago like say we
625s	want to swap that Shield out get rid of
627s	this one anytime you're scrapping stuff
629s	you get resources and you unlock
630s	blueprint progress when that blueprint
633s	progress is reached you can then craft
635s	that very specific item like for example
639s	The Shield
641s	uh we haven't quite reached said two out
643s	of three blueprint progress if you scrap
645s	three of them then you will be able to
646s	infinitely craft them at that particular
648s	Rarity of course there are multiple
651s	Rarities to go for all these weapons and
653s	equipment
655s	do we have car videos now we don't have
657s	car units that's fine that's fine
659s	[Music]
660s	oh
662s	so so much so much stuff to cover not
664s	enough time in a single live stream uh
666s	but we're gonna we're gonna use this it
668s	should be fine on nightmare difficulty
669s	right
671s	right let's see what our objective is
673s	where we're at in this game
676s	good good excellent
678s	we need to go to cryptus bowl
682s	just a test to make sure that we're not
684s	like significantly outgunned let's just
686s	go up against the same level Proto Scout
688s	I think there's two of them there
694s	okay good good
696s	that that's not that's not doing a lot
698s	of damage at all I was kind of hoping
700s	that would oh okay nailed it
703s	perfect
706s	definitely a little bit beefier and I
708s	really don't want to get hit like at all
714s	cool
716s	me so the whole game is in a spaceship
719s	you are always in the ship You Are The
722s	Ship okay for all intents and purposes
723s	You Are The Ship you do have a first
726s	person view and you can look around
727s	holding the left alt or if you prefer
729s	track IR you can use that as well I do
732s	not have it currently enabled but it
734s	works like a charm there's also a first
736s	person without the HUD
738s	without the HUD man there are so many
740s	questions and I'm completely ignoring
742s	the chats oh my gosh let me tell you
745s	what I am so glad that we have Gary
747s	another one of our community managers
748s	present with us hi Gary hello wonderful
751s	he is grabbing all those questions that
754s	I am completely missing because there's
755s	so much to talk about so much to share
757s	for people to understand what we are
759s	offering here
760s	um and at a certain point we will take
763s	all of those questions that I have
765s	missed and we will be answering those if
767s	you have not been answered in the chat
769s	yet okay
770s	so thanks for your patience on that we
772s	know there's gonna be a lot of questions
773s	we'll get you covered
775s	we will get you covered
777s	okay
779s	so
780s	I think our build's okay
784s	early game high difficulty is always one
786s	of those fickle things I think but we're
788s	gonna try and pull off anyway I do have
790s	some jobs floating around
792s	so we look at our map here you can see
794s	I've got this Minesweeper job over there
796s	a Search and Destroy This is probably uh
798s	oh this is repel attackers excellent so
801s	we're gonna try doing a couple of jobs
803s	to increase our Renown as you reach
806s	different levels of renown you unlock
807s	little items to give you a boost where
810s	you are at
812s	cool it also gives you permanent
814s	benefits too like credits earned from
816s	jobs are increased by 25 percent uh
819s	higher level job opportunities with
820s	greater rewards are available jobs will
821s	always reward an item etc etc the higher
823s	you go
825s	let's get back to flying
828s	complete some tasks
832s	I see some folks a lot of folks
835s	saying they are starting new games and
837s	you're going on very hard oh yeah that's
839s	that's great to hear that's what I like
842s	to see
843s	that's what I like to see
852s	all right
853s	see what we can do for our friends over
856s	here
866s	I'm a little hesitant to use my ALT
868s	right now
872s	that doesn't mean I'm gonna forget about
874s	it later but let me tell you what
875s	there's only a couple foes here I want
878s	to save it for when the going gets real
879s	tough
886s	noise
890s	random container just some scrap
894s	this Nifty station you're speaking to an
897s	FD station jobs complete good I want my
901s	payment signature is fine
906s	excellent excellent
910s	it's going to clear this out but as we
912s	completed that job you saw we got some
914s	credits actually a pretty decent number
916s	of credits uh let's actually explore
918s	that a little bit further
920s	uh and this little bar this tiny little
922s	bar right here actually went up
924s	and once we reach certain tiers as we've
927s	reached the rookie status we can claim
929s	those Rewards
931s	so we just got all of these items a
932s	little credit boost a decal this rookie
935s	decal and you'll keep getting those the
937s	higher Renown you get
941s	that is just that's so much better I
944s	think we just we have to use it my
946s	energy core situation as freaking me out
950s	a little bit I think we need a new one
952s	let's see if we can actually
956s	think that we can actually craft uh
958s	energy course yeah let's let's just
960s	craft a new one
962s	so yeah that's just a straight
963s	Improvement and we're gonna we're really
965s	gonna need that as we keep going up we
967s	don't want to fall behind on energy
968s	course
969s	at all uh let's see if we can further
971s	modify this maybe can we uh increase the
973s	Rarity no no we don't have the ability
976s	to yet all right
978s	well that's unfortunate
981s	all right
982s	[Music]
984s	so let's make a little bit more progress
986s	here on the early game just you can get
987s	a pretty strong feel how this thing
989s	flows
991s	and then we'll get to the crazy fun
992s	stuff
994s	my goodness Commodities look at that
999s	there is a commodity system in place so
1001s	if you do like space Trucking there are
1003s	elements of it here that is not a focal
1005s	point right it's not like the big thing
1008s	that you do but it's definitely possible
1010s	you can find some optimized trade routes
1013s	to maximize some credit gains
1016s	so if you prefer that style of play it's
1019s	it's present it's going to be good it's
1021s	going to be nice for you
1023s	let's do one more of our jobs actually
1026s	let's do this uh Search and Destroy what
1029s	could possibly go wrong
1032s	and while we're flying over there
1034s	um hey Gary let's answer maybe a couple
1036s	questions if we can
1038s	oh cool
1040s	um
1043s	what is the difference between Early
1045s	Access very hard from 1.0 very hard
1049s	to be nightmarish and very hard
1052s	what's the differences in the highest
1055s	levels of difficulty yeah for for sure
1057s	for sure yeah so effectively the
1059s	differences in difficulty are mostly
1061s	stat based
1063s	the differences of enemies you're gonna
1065s	have a different level of accuracy as
1068s	well and to my understanding there can
1071s	be a difference in quantity of enemies
1073s	depending on the difficulty too
1075s	so
1077s	yeah that's gonna be the majority of it
1080s	in addition to that when you're playing
1081s	on Nightmare and I'm hoping it happens
1085s	I'm hoping that it happens that the
1087s	volume is too high I was kind of
1088s	thinking it was here let me adjust that
1089s	let's uh let's just pop this down
1094s	hopefully that'll be better but uh
1095s	hopefully it happens but when you play
1097s	on nightmare
1098s	legendaries
1099s	can randomly drop
1103s	yeah they can just they can randomly
1106s	drop
1106s	from usually higher tier sources so your
1110s	the likelihood of it dropping from a
1112s	drone is basically not not going to
1114s	happen but
1115s	it can it's possible
1117s	it's possible
1119s	so
1124s	it'd be super cool if one of these uh
1127s	chops even in this level five State I
1129s	mean it's it's I highly doubt we're
1131s	gonna see a legendary drop but
1134s	it is definitely possible
1137s	albeit unlikely
1143s	so far so good we're not having too much
1146s	trouble with these guys let's just use
1147s	the alt anyway
1155s	nice thank you
1159s	short and simple sometimes that's the
1162s	best way to be with these jobs
1164s	so you can grab your stuff and be on
1166s	your way oh ship color
1172s	all right let's toggle that last job I
1174s	think was just Minesweeper but you know
1176s	what it's flying all the way across the
1177s	map again so we can answer another
1179s	question
1181s	uh right pesky husky over on YouTube
1185s	would like to know uh how long did it
1187s	take for the devs to code the game
1190s	it's hard to take the code for the quiet
1192s	side as well for the streams
1196s	I know it's because I've got a British
1198s	accent you don't like the fact that you
1199s	know tweet The King's English
1201s	oh my goodness
1202s	um
1205s	that is such a hard question to answer
1207s	because there's been so much work over
1209s	the course of five years over five years
1212s	honestly I think like even the ideation
1215s	phase which is where you're putting
1216s	together the vision of the game like
1218s	that started back in 2016 2017
1221s	so it's been uh it's been
1224s	pretty
1226s	yeah there's but there's it's
1231s	I'm honestly not trying to answer that
1232s	question because it's just there's been
1233s	so much
1235s	there's so much to that
1238s	um
1239s	yeah
1242s	it's certainly been an incredible
1243s	journey
1245s	for all of our team members we had to
1247s	bring on new ones to ensure all these
1250s	different prospects were being reached
1252s	uh for that Vision as well as the
1254s	support and the ideas that you guys
1256s	brought to the table too I mean
1257s	cyberspace 2 was not just created by
1259s	Austin and that's it like we did Early
1262s	Access because we know how much that can
1266s	help make the game so much more into
1268s	what it needs to be time to clean this
1270s	mess
1274s	so good good stuff I'm gonna clean up
1276s	these mine sweepers then we're going to
1277s	jump over to some later game situations
1279s	and uh show off some legendaries that
1282s	maybe haven't been shown yet at all ever
1285s	in a live stream
1287s	that have been hiding
1289s	that could be fun
1294s	I am gonna have to go back to one of my
1296s	classic saves
1298s	and showcase the legendary that I've
1300s	just been absolutely loving to death
1310s	a little bit of mine sweeping this would
1311s	be so much better with a flat Cannon
1313s	whew
1317s	let's go ahead and answer another
1318s	question while I'm just cleaning up this
1319s	minefield
1323s	two of she's asking uh does rarity
1327s	increase sorry that isn't actually that
1329s	was Fred spec vet I was asking does
1331s	rarity increase with difficulty
1334s	does rarity increase with difficulty no
1336s	we didn't want to do anything on the
1338s	front of like uh also sorry I just like
1340s	maxed your voice out over on the history
1343s	so uh as a rip headphone users but it
1345s	should be a lot better
1347s	um but in regards to the difficulties
1349s	um and you know again there's there's uh
1352s	six difficulties now
1353s	we didn't really want to contents Gates
1356s	anything from any of these difficulties
1359s	whatsoever so that's why it's primarily
1360s	stat based what you're going to see
1362s	between all of the different factors is
1365s	not so much like drop rates or types of
1367s	items that you can gain stuff like that
1368s	and I know there's somebody out there
1370s	like well Eric you just said you can
1372s	have legendaries drop a nightmare yes
1374s	this is a reward for when you complete
1376s	the game absolutely absolutely it is an
1380s	unlock that you can then have access to
1383s	yes so otherwise all of the standard
1386s	difficulties how you're diving in they
1388s	are exactly the same aside from the
1391s	literal challenge that your foes will
1393s	bring to the table
1395s	and also some timers are adjusted
1407s	excellent so now after doing a couple of
1410s	these jobs just seeing how we have built
1412s	up our Renown ever so slightly further
1414s	look at that nice little Boop and we
1416s	also that doing those jobs gave us a
1419s	pretty decent amount of credit so this
1421s	is something that we could go back and
1422s	maybe even purchase a new ship and all
1424s	that fun stuff but instead of taking all
1427s	that time to do that in this save I just
1429s	want to jump over to something else
1430s	that's really cool so let's do let's see
1435s	we do the rifting we could do the Drake
1437s	signal Union system could be kind of fun
1441s	let's let's go to rifting for now let's
1444s	let's do a rift
1445s	let's do a rift
1448s	the game is quite tough on standard I
1449s	see in the chats uh yes uh it is this
1452s	game is is not messing around
1456s	I will certainly agree with that one of
1459s	the things that we have as a sort of a
1461s	foundation here at Rockfish is that we
1463s	want our game to be something of a
1466s	challenge okay that is because
1469s	we don't want to play something that's
1471s	not engaging or something that's going
1473s	to like pull us that like we have to we
1475s	want to try we have to try and so yeah
1478s	from the even the base level of the game
1480s	there has to be that level of
1483s	challenge
1485s	straight making that known now of course
1487s	we have the difficulties and a lot of
1489s	accessibility options to boot uh
1491s	sincerely we have a lot of different
1493s	elements that you can adjust and modify
1495s	here
1496s	um to your liking from various camera
1499s	elements to
1501s	um the display to so many different
1503s	types of input controls
1506s	um and I mean it doesn't stop there I
1508s	mean we have like input smoothing aiming
1509s	sensitivity Auto aiming strength
1512s	there's a there's a lot here that you
1514s	can dabble with to get things closer to
1516s	where you need to be we do have
1517s	accessibility options for like color
1519s	deficiency mode for color blindness
1521s	we've got all types of these and uh I am
1525s	not colorblind I wasn't able to like
1526s	officially test these and know if they
1528s	were working but I can actually confirm
1529s	we had a user come over to Pax who was
1531s	colorblind and he was like yeah you know
1534s	I would really like to play this but
1535s	it's hard for me to tell these colors I
1537s	was like oh hey check this out swapped
1538s	it around for him and he was like this
1540s	is amazing thank you so much for doing
1541s	this blah blah blah praise worship
1543s	whatever but I can confirm that at least
1546s	for one colorblind individual these
1549s	options are rather satisfactory so
1553s	cool
1554s	let's get into the ship and our
1557s	inventory very briefly we need to get a
1559s	legendary we need to get a legendary all
1561s	right okay
1565s	you know what
1566s	I kind of don't want to wait
1568s	I kind of want the legendary now
1572s	because we're showing stuff off right
1575s	we're showing stuff off right so uh give
1577s	me one second
1578s	let's change this
1581s	let's change this let's let's let's show
1583s	something new
1585s	something to be excited about in the
1587s	late game
1590s	could be fun
1600s	[Music]
1601s	here we are
1604s	I think this will do nicely
1606s	all right
1609s	little tomfoolery in the background yay
1612s	Dev controls but what I have here is a
1615s	legendary courtesy of our backer Dennis
1618s	Svenson duva
1620s	I'm hoping I'm pronouncing that
1622s	correctly maybe I'm not it's called the
1624s	pigeon's Stare this is a beam laser
1626s	legendary after hitting the same Target
1628s	for two seconds the beam overloads and
1632s	damaging is increased by 30 percent
1634s	destroying the target during this phase
1636s	restores 50 percent weapon energy so
1640s	basically it gets stronger the longer
1643s	you focus on a Target and if that Target
1645s	dies you get energy back to go focus on
1648s	a new Target
1651s	it also has a nice aesthetic
1654s	I quite like it
1657s	quite like it
1660s	so let's try this out on the rift shall
1662s	we
1663s	let's get this going
1669s	man it sure would be embarrassing if I
1671s	didn't make it through a 200 lunacy
1674s	since we also did that last time
1677s	so let's up the ante to 250 right what
1679s	could go wrong
1681s	what could go wrong
1686s	here we go
1689s	250 bro 1000. well I mean I should point
1692s	out though uh because this this is
1694s	something to very much note when you are
1697s	looking at the riffs this is a late game
1701s	event okay this is a late game event
1704s	you unlock this ability to go through
1707s	sort of a rogue light light
1711s	my goodness naming conventions these
1713s	days it's a procedurally generated run
1715s	through four areas that you're
1717s	challenged with uh depending on the
1720s	lunacy that you choose so this
1722s	difficulty over here that says very hard
1724s	now like I mean I can change this right
1726s	now of course over to nightmare that
1728s	doesn't matter at all in a rift the only
1731s	thing that matters in a rift is the
1732s	lunacy
1734s	only thing that matters in a rift is the
1736s	lunacy
1738s	so even if you're playing a very easy
1740s	and you're like oh well I'm gonna make
1742s	the riffs super easy to like exploit or
1744s	whatever and Max on lunacy 1000 you are
1746s	gonna get burned because that's not how
1748s	it works
1750s	one more time the lunacy does not care
1752s	about the difficulty
1755s	not even close all right
1759s	let's see how this goes what could go
1762s	wrong
1763s	do we have did it already explode is
1766s	that
1767s	all right let's get the pigeons there
1770s	going see if we can get it focused oh oh
1773s	oh man yeah we're already we're already
1775s	cruising for a bruising I love it
1780s	okay
1782s	let's really get the focus down I don't
1785s	want that Weber drone let's get this
1787s	outlaw Viper
1791s	oh yeah it's much better
1793s	much better let's get the teleport drone
1800s	of course he teleported away
1802s	we're out of juice oh man
1810s	now I'm not maximizing my tools here in
1812s	this little bitty Vanguard
1815s	to which I should
1817s	a big thing about this ship is that you
1818s	get bonus damage when you are behind
1821s	your foes
1823s	it's once if it's specialty traits if
1826s	you will
1827s	but for now we're just kind of
1830s	flying by the seat of our pants
1833s	oh my targeting with this weapon is uh
1837s	less than desirable at the moment
1840s	that's all good
1842s	okay let's um let's get this okra Prime
1845s	protector out of the picture because I
1846s	it's it's painful
1857s	don't want to deal with that
1865s	what's that sniper drone
1867s	Tormentor this guy needs to go
1873s	our what
1877s	all right all right
1887s	we're gonna start using a few more of
1888s	our tools our devices have a lot of
1890s	Splash damage capability
1894s	so we're gonna maximize that
1900s	come on give the kill so I can get more
1902s	energy
1911s	the good news about the Synchro pulse
1913s	because that still does some serious
1915s	damage even to armor and hole oh oh no
1918s	thank you no thank you
1922s	so even though we don't have a dedicated
1924s	kinetic weapon per se
1928s	we can still lock down
1931s	some pretty decent damage numbers I
1933s	think
1936s	let's try and focus some crits
1940s	shooting at the rear yeah all those
1942s	orange all those orange numbers are
1944s	crits
1956s	come on awesome
1968s	it's all these little effects and
1970s	whatnot going on these are devices that
1972s	an annihilator virus that bounds around
1975s	from one target to another one and then
1977s	on a certain point they all pop like
1979s	that
1981s	another one we're using is called the
1983s	corrosion injector
1985s	and it just dishes out some serious
1987s	damage to a single Target
1991s	there we go
1992s	and also for those wondering what in the
1994s	world does static electricity stuff is
1996s	going on around me we are using a level
1998s	30 perk called Ride the Lightning
2002s	and as this stacks
2004s	it gives us protection against our foes
2007s	in the form of retaliation
2009s	so when we are getting hit it returns
2012s	fire to them if we have them maxed out
2015s	we can gain unlimited Boost energy and
2018s	increase our fire rate as well
2020s	pretty nice pretty nice
2022s	all right
2026s	random item overheated enemies slowly
2028s	repair their hole let's do random item
2031s	overheating what could possibly go wrong
2034s	as we're moving into the second level
2036s	let's answer some more questions as I
2039s	attempt to do this let's what could
2041s	possibly go wrong let's let's do this
2045s	um could you just reiterate a little bit
2047s	about the whole game pass some Microsoft
2049s	certification without a lot of users on
2051s	the various chats just wanting to a bit
2052s	of an update on that if you could please
2054s	if so I I totally understand and guys
2057s	thank you so much for our patience on
2058s	that uh it's a little bit of an
2060s	unfortunate outcome but effectively we
2064s	were looking to kind of alleviate the
2067s	Microsoft certification by sending out a
2069s	not quite 1.0 update to be to get into
2073s	your hands today
2074s	and I think it was because we had two
2077s	pending certifications it kind of
2079s	backfired and now we have to um wait for
2081s	a certification just a tad longer so
2083s	it's going to be approximately 24 hours
2085s	ish uh you know I think it'd be better
2088s	just to say tomorrow
2090s	um when we will likely see an update
2094s	so uh yeah that's that's how that's
2096s	panning out
2097s	so we try to to beat the system and uh
2101s	the system still said no
2103s	but we will get that into your hands as
2106s	soon it can possibly be there
2108s	whenever that 1.0 version is with you
2111s	the not quite 1.0 do not fret and think
2115s	that you've been dipped a 1.0 true
2117s	experience everything in that game is
2120s	effectively done
2122s	the elements that aren't quite complete
2124s	a couple little wrap-ups bug fixes
2126s	adjustments things of that nature that
2129s	you will then get in approximately a
2131s	weakeish time after that level of
2134s	certification is compiled
2138s	so that's the uh that's the overarching
2140s	gist of everything
2143s	pretty sure
2145s	and uh there are team members in chat to
2147s	where if I did miss anything at all
2149s	uh they can absolutely correct me
2152s	because you know this information
2153s	legitimately came to our hands
2156s	oh my gosh it was like 30 minutes before
2158s	the full release if igmar's here it was
2161s	it was just like really seriously it uh
2165s	gamed up sometimes man
2167s	but uh yeah so that there's anything we
2170s	can do to push this through faster we
2172s	will
2177s	excellent um I think you may have
2180s	answered this question a little bit
2181s	earlier I think we should probably
2182s	expect that it was about legendary
2184s	because they dropped in nightmare mode I
2186s	think
2187s	yeah so the the main element about
2189s	nightmare mode and legendaries it is a
2192s	very low chance okay it is a very low
2194s	chance
2195s	but legendaries can start dropping from
2198s	like higher tier enemies like Elites and
2200s	stuff
2201s	now uh if for some ridiculous reason
2205s	they were to drop while we're in a rift
2207s	like from a foe like this that would
2209s	absolutely be a bug that wouldn't be
2210s	intentional it should be outside of refs
2213s	but basically anywhere in the game it is
2217s	now possible so long as you're playing
2219s	on nightmare after you unlock it
2223s	so yeah
2226s	a nightmare is only available after you
2230s	completely TV correct correct you must
2233s	complete the storyline once oh boy let's
2236s	uh make some distance
2240s	no thank you
2245s	this is a tricky position to be on oh
2248s	okay
2251s	I really need my EMP backup come back
2253s	EMP
2258s	okay that works that works
2262s	there are so many missiles getting
2266s	thrown around here this prospector you
2269s	your dang Thermo gun
2279s	trying to maximize our
2282s	alts because that's what's going to give
2284s	us the clear Advantage here
2285s	in our Vanguard it's all about
2289s	being such a heavy hitter from the rear
2291s	like that
2292s	somewhat roguish in nature if you will
2300s	get out of here good good
2303s	wow that mine was close I'm not sure how
2304s	we didn't get hit by that but
2306s	I'm certainly not complaining
2311s	oh I don't like being locked down nope
2313s	nope nope nope nope
2315s	[Music]
2316s	another ravager oh my gosh this is a
2320s	rather Savage one
2322s	see if we can uh spread the damage love
2325s	around here oh that's much better much
2327s	better
2332s	so go ahead and give me another question
2335s	all right
2337s	right 6372 is asking what's the
2341s	challenge but not brutal difficulty
2344s	setting is normal tuned for a casual
2346s	player they want a challenge but not to
2349s	have their fist punched in
2356s	all intents and purposes
2358s	the difficulty that we feel everspace 2
2360s	is played last at so if you are a gamer
2364s	and you want to be gamering
2367s	that is what we recommend diving into
2369s	the experience if you
2371s	you have struggles with shooting games
2374s	in particular you know whether it's you
2376s	know you're you're a little sluggish or
2379s	you know uh or you know your eyesight's
2382s	not what it used to be or whatever
2383s	whatever the reason if you feel like you
2386s	are disadvantaged and you need a little
2387s	bit of assistance definitely very easy
2390s	and easy they're going to give that
2391s	added
2393s	um leeway through enemies being softer
2396s	as well as missing you more
2398s	and if you are just an avid gamer
2402s	and you're just like oh yeah I play all
2404s	my games on the hardest mode blah blah
2406s	and you like you just want a challenge
2407s	then yeah like slap it on very hard like
2409s	I do basically every stream
2411s	that would be the recommendation
2413s	so yeah but normal
2415s	yeah that's that's the way we generally
2417s	feel the game should be experienced at
2421s	oh not deal area damage at death that
2423s	would be awful increased movement speed
2425s	oh all three of these choices are bad so
2428s	the reason why
2429s	um I'm looking at these little portals
2431s	and the if you can read that text right
2433s	there each time you go through a new
2435s	Rift
2436s	you get a stacked mutator on top of
2440s	what's going on so we are having
2441s	overheated systems randomly occurring to
2443s	our ship so like right now our sensors
2445s	are overheated that's not so bad
2447s	and when we go through here enemy name
2449s	types are then going to be hidden
2451s	could be tricky if there are specific
2453s	enemies that I need to hunt down like a
2455s	maybe like a sniper drone might get lost
2457s	in The Fray if I can't see the name
2459s	specifically uh hopefully we can track
2461s	down the shots
2466s	but yeah as you can see there
2468s	are you referred to as ancient
2471s	whoop
2473s	I'm already way more into The Fray than
2475s	I should be oh God they're all around me
2477s	what was I thinking hang on a second
2481s	what's up
2483s	reorient ourselves
2490s	a little bit of careful six degrees of
2492s	freedom dodging no big deal
2497s	trying to break all the parts of this
2499s	guy off these ships
2503s	have armor you can see it kind of
2506s	highlighting but man I'm kind of
2508s	crushing them all over the place so it
2509s	might be hard to see
2511s	but every Every Little Bit Of Armor
2513s	plating that you take out on these guys
2516s	dishes out a significant amount of
2517s	damage to them and makes it easier to do
2519s	damage to them as well so yeah
2523s	those are mines those are not foes all
2525s	right
2529s	okay we got a find a way to last here
2532s	because things could get real intense oh
2534s	come on
2535s	pulse laser overheat oh that was bad
2538s	timing that was real that was rough
2541s	and we don't want this Raider to give us
2542s	any more slow down
2546s	that's why we're focused on him
2548s	whoa boy
2551s	yikes
2554s	all right oh no no no no
2559s	about just ate that
2561s	you need to go away sir
2571s	oh boy all right
2579s	let's go out to the smaller targets
2581s	maybe that'll be more effective oh we're
2582s	running out of time so if you look over
2583s	on the right side you'll see progress
2585s	and resolve you have to maintain your
2589s	resolve else you lose
2592s	good day sir
2596s	and your resolve is gained by
2599s	destroying enemies that's right I heard
2602s	every single one of you who was watching
2603s	right now
2612s	okay
2613s	ah yikes all right this is our new big
2617s	Target okay
2621s	this this is gonna be nasty because
2623s	we're about to lose our alt oh no
2629s	come on come on come on
2632s	Ah that's not good
2637s	resolve is looking way too close for
2640s	comfort we might not end up making this
2643s	oh gosh
2651s	racing Against Time
2659s	periodically to ensure they are not
2661s	depleted in combat come on come on come
2664s	on
2668s	all right
2670s	getting a little bit of it back
2673s	it's still pretty close much closer than
2676s	I would like it to be
2678s	ah let's get some drones out that should
2681s	help
2684s	but yeah as a reminder this is lunacy
2687s	250 and again the difficulty don't care
2690s	what you are playing at
2693s	doesn't matter if you're on very easy or
2695s	very hard or whatever
2697s	the lunacy is all that matters here
2707s	okay all right all right
2714s	new Target
2716s	you must go down Redeemer
2719s	do not like that coil gun on me
2725s	I also don't like these mines being
2727s	thrown at us goodness
2729s	for that reason right there oh man it's
2732s	close again
2735s	come on come on
2737s	I see some weak foes come on
2741s	we're weak
2761s	oh come on
2773s	oh thank you drones you just saved us oh
2780s	also using the alt saved us too hey guys
2783s	never forget to use your alt it's
2785s	important
2794s	oh
2803s	I have my concerns against the final
2805s	boss but we do have a secret weapon up
2807s	our sleeve
2810s	two of them in fact
2814s	come on come on almost there
2819s	get some distance from everything on
2821s	okay
2828s	no big deal it's fine everything's good
2832s	also Hans Christian I'm so sorry this
2834s	bug is back snuck back in before release
2837s	build these dang drones
2841s	don't you worry about that guys
2843s	that's not game breaking I don't think
2847s	all right secret weapon we got some
2849s	powerful Rockets So if things go south
2854s	we unleash the fury
2860s	all right
2863s	so let's just start things off a little
2865s	bit more slowly
2867s	oh yeah even more slowly see what is
2870s	there
2871s	drain the shields off first
2876s	oh great our secondary weapons got hurt
2878s	all right now it's go mode
2882s	oh yeah we're fine we're fine
2889s	let's just just look at this missile
2891s	barrage we've got going on in slow
2893s	motion all these beautiful missiles yeah
2897s	yeah I think we got him
2900s	I think we got him I think that's I
2902s	think that's GG
2905s	all right and I see a legendary
2907s	what is it which one we got another one
2910s	to show oh boy
2914s	all right I'm excited
2921s	all right
2923s	and don't worry you don't have to pick
2925s	up that loot it goes with you
2927s	it goes with you
2932s	whoo
2934s	we're fine yeah yeah exactly exactly
2938s	that's a little closer than I thought it
2940s	was going to be admittedly but you know
2941s	it happens
2943s	so look we got the RG beam laser here
2948s	another legendary
2954s	so a little bit funny because these are
2956s	the only two uh legendary beam lasers
2959s	but we got both of them so let's go
2960s	ahead and just swap to the RGB laser
2963s	and show you what that one looks like
2965s	also this one complements to salty
2968s	pretzel a backer way back 70 years ago
2973s	backing everspace 2. thank you so much
2975s	for the support
2977s	RG beam laser
2980s	this was his concept this was his idea
2984s	and it looks like this
2986s	[Music]
2992s	oh oh see that movement around
2996s	when we are at this state we are doing a
3000s	ridiculous amount of damage okay but it
3003s	is a little it's admittedly a little bit
3004s	harder to control okay
3006s	admittedly a little bit harder to
3008s	control
3009s	so let's read this
3012s	sequentially alternates between three
3013s	states while firing red increases
3015s	kinetic damage by 40 green increases
3017s	critical hit damage by 160 percent and
3020s	blue increases energy damage by 40
3022s	percent
3023s	after six seconds of constant fire that
3027s	extreme changing the beam engages RGB
3030s	mode applying all three bonuses at the
3032s	same freaking time
3034s	but it's hard to control so yeah it can
3035s	be
3036s	it can be nuts yeah so I'm hoping that
3039s	we maybe get another legendary to pair
3041s	with this bad boy because there's two
3044s	that go into Rave mode there's two of
3046s	them yeah there's two of them if you
3048s	haven't watched the release trailer
3050s	maybe you have an eye to catch what I
3053s	may be referring to all right
3057s	all right that was fun that was pleasant
3059s	I was pleasant so let's take a breather
3061s	and answer questions in a little bit
3063s	more of a calm state so we can uh reach
3066s	the folks at home so what do we got Gary
3068s	what do we got
3069s	we have a question from T3 Cube over on
3073s	Twitch
3074s	um if you're a seasoned veteran will
3076s	there be an option to do some form of
3077s	cheat code to allow for early nightmare
3080s	difficulty I think yourself experienced
3082s	Pilots have maybe played a lot of Emma
3084s	space too I think can we just unlock
3086s	nightmare so what I would recommend
3089s	you know we've we've said countless
3091s	times like there's going to be a save
3092s	white blah blah blah and you want to
3093s	start fresh blah blah yes
3095s	um there's no longer save life for those
3097s	wondering you can use your old saves we
3099s	do still recommend a new save however
3102s	in this case if you veterans who have
3105s	been playing Early Access over and over
3107s	and over ago want to unlock nightmare
3111s	use your save
3113s	finish the game and then start a new one
3117s	that's an option okay
3118s	it's an option but otherwise
3121s	I still recommend starting a new game
3124s	still recommend starting a new game
3126s	so yeah
3130s	[Music]
3131s	all right
3134s	next one
3135s	next one uh slurring over on YouTube
3138s	there was some talk of making Hive more
3140s	divisive on lower difficulty uh has that
3143s	been added or is it still on the table
3146s	I don't know where that came from but
3148s	I don't think that's still on the table
3151s	no
3154s	next question please
3157s	I think there's been more lines put in
3159s	so people are aware that he can be a
3161s	little bit um
3163s	erasive still at times but yeah we
3165s	haven't done that in any difficulty as
3167s	such yeah for sure for sure
3171s	um I know this question has come up uh
3173s	before uh internally but uh people have
3176s	noticed that the photo mode can no
3178s	longer enter model Interiors yes is
3181s	there going to be a way to make it like
3183s	it was in Early Access so I'm glad that
3185s	you guys brought that up uh the short of
3187s	it is I can't confirm if we're gonna
3190s	bring that back or not but when we did
3192s	it internally we went huh
3196s	that kind of sucks
3199s	I wonder what we can do about this so
3201s	hopefully there can be an adjustment but
3204s	I cannot guarantee anything just know
3207s	that we we have the exact same
3209s	sentiments actually we have the exact
3211s	same sentiments so if we can figure out
3213s	a way to uh keep the ship apart from
3217s	basically everything else so that your
3220s	photo mode can in fact go into the ship
3222s	and look out of the cockpit because that
3223s	was freaking awesome then we will do
3225s	that but again
3228s	we know this is what you guys want we
3231s	recognize it
3233s	can't can't quite guarantee that can't
3235s	so please know that we hear that for
3237s	sure
3238s	we hear that for sure so
3242s	yep
3246s	yep next question please uh next
3248s	question is from Randy over on Twitch uh
3251s	what does resolves mean in the rift uh
3254s	is it something to do with the player or
3255s	the uh enemy your resolve is the
3258s	stabilization of the rift
3261s	so the rift will stabilize the more uh
3264s	Madness tiers you're effectively
3266s	invoking and you gain those by
3268s	destroying vessels uh stuck in this
3271s	rift-like state uh as your resolve
3274s	increases the rift becomes more stable
3276s	and you stay if you do not gain
3280s	stabilization you will be completely
3281s	kicked out and uh would have to start a
3284s	completely new Rift
3290s	um some people are just asked a question
3292s	earlier which I did answer and if you
3293s	could just have a little show through of
3295s	the modules on the ship
3297s	um yeah we're almost there we're almost
3300s	there yeah I've been tweaking a number
3301s	of little details I'm sure you've been
3303s	noticing
3303s	um and uh yeah I'm gonna kind of just go
3306s	yellow here but um yeah let's jump over
3308s	to the ship modules do I not have any
3309s	unlocked in this build of course I don't
3315s	that's just that's brilliant oh my gosh
3318s	well you know we can't have this we
3320s	can't have this one second one second I
3323s	want to show you modules like come on
3325s	come on give me one second I'll fix this
3328s	I'll fix this and I'll tell you exactly
3331s	how to unlock these things okay it's not
3333s	by having a Dev command behind to make
3335s	sure all the freaking modules are
3337s	working accordingly nay I say to thee it
3340s	is in fact by
3342s	firing at enemies and getting their loot
3344s	drops
3346s	it has a similar Loop pool as ship
3348s	colors
3349s	so the same way that you would acquire
3351s	the ship colors
3353s	is the exact same way all of these bad
3356s	boys it's the exact same way you would
3357s	acquire
3358s	these different modules
3361s	these different modules and if you guys
3364s	have not read the 1.0 informations yet I
3369s	would like to point out that there are
3372s	more modules coming
3374s	so uh the mediumship classes basically
3378s	have all of them that's not true there's
3381s	actually more coming to the mediums too
3382s	but they have the most of them the light
3384s	ships and the heavy ships they will have
3386s	a decent number more coming I think
3388s	decent number more
3391s	so we can kind of say hey which one do I
3393s	want to use I like this type D no I like
3396s	the type C I like the type C here uh
3399s	different wings
3400s	what you can see here is we have this
3402s	Mercury 4 but it's blocked out
3405s	because we're flying a mercury three you
3407s	cannot customize the visual aesthetic of
3410s	your ship to a higher tier you can only
3413s	customize it to lower tier options okay
3418s	but you can also customize a tier 4 to
3420s	like tier one as well
3422s	so depending on which tier you're at you
3424s	can customize add that to your end below
3425s	we can also completely change types
3430s	like so
3432s	I think we want to go up to the The
3433s	Harbinger 3 here this is nice we'll do
3435s	that
3436s	and then last but not least we'll adjust
3437s	the engine I want to go over to where's
3440s	that yeah this one type four
3444s	I'm much more pleased with this result
3447s	so over time you will be collecting all
3449s	these modular Parts again they will be
3451s	drops from your foes
3454s	but you'll be able to uh you know
3456s	maximize and collect now there's a
3458s	number of other things that I kind of
3459s	want to show here I think we might be
3461s	able to purchase uh how many oh we have
3464s	like no credits
3466s	ah well I can at least go to Mr Cato and
3470s	show you
3472s	uh something that's fun and needs some
3475s	fantastic because in the late game
3479s	fashion is the real late game I see oh
3481s	my gosh yep
3482s	you know it
3484s	um though I will say I I feel like I
3487s	feel like the team all of us we've done
3488s	a pretty good job of making sure you're
3490s	building up your options even
3492s	aesthetically
3493s	over time through the game experience
3496s	of spatial bypass travel
3499s	I mean shoot even just watching other
3501s	streamers uh through Early Access and
3503s	also like our you know I think that we
3505s	could most notably see what co-carnage
3509s	has been doing in his stream he's he's
3510s	had his 10-year anniversary stream
3513s	um and he's been highlighting a lot of
3514s	really cool stuff
3516s	um
3516s	there he's been customizing his ship as
3518s	he's going through the motions going
3520s	through the story and you can see the
3521s	like the very progress he's made on his
3523s	ship which is kind of cool
3525s	kind of freaking cool so
3527s	um here uh I don't have do I not have
3530s	the perk unlocked oh my gosh terrain
3531s	what what and I had to have loaded the
3534s	wrong build guys oh my gosh I'm so sorry
3536s	let me get let me get this straightened
3537s	out too gosh dang it what in the world
3540s	ah there weren't a thousand and a half
3543s	things that we were dealing with all
3544s	week or anything you know just they're
3546s	nothing like that whatsoever uh so good
3550s	goodness gravy wow all right one more
3553s	command for the win oh goodness gravy
3557s	ridiculous I was supposed to be done
3559s	before and I'm sorry guys I'm sorry all
3561s	right so now when we stop at Cato Palace
3564s	wow look at that a ship dealer because
3566s	we got this very specific perk from
3568s	Turin that says Katrine convinces Cato
3570s	to offer top tier ships for sale at Cato
3572s	Palace I just want to show you how these
3574s	ships look because dang I feel like I
3576s	feel like there's been such wonderful
3578s	work on these models so like oh my gosh
3581s	I
3582s	I love the look of the Vanguard now like
3585s	I just I've like splurged over it
3588s	I know that I've been playing the
3589s	Vanguard a lot
3590s	um it's growing on me just because of
3592s	that speed
3593s	but uh yeah yeah we got the Scout here
3596s	oh yeah look at those wings
3600s	oh yes
3603s	ah yes we got the Stinger here
3606s	now you can't see it but the engines
3608s	these are actually the engines the mouse
3610s	that I'm doing
3611s	these are the engines in addition to
3614s	that so when you're thrusting your
3616s	engine color comes out the sides here oh
3618s	It's So Glorious I might have to buy
3621s	this just to show you what I'm talking
3622s	about
3623s	um with illegal cheats again uh but we
3626s	also have the striker here
3628s	look at that
3630s	definitely some souped up Wings To Go
3634s	we've got this Sentinel version which in
3638s	fact this should be reminiscent if not
3641s	very close to one of the wing types from
3644s	the Prototype from the everspace 2
3647s	prototype guys holy crap
3651s	obviously it's been a little more
3653s	refined over the years
3656s	we have the Interceptor oh gosh that's
3661s	that that's a that's a sexy ship right
3664s	there
3666s	I'm a I am a fan of that one goodness
3668s	wow
3671s	all right very nice very nice we got the
3674s	gunship
3676s	love the aesthetic here I love the it's
3679s	almost like it has this organic movement
3682s	through this entire piece this tire
3684s	structure
3688s	bomber
3690s	Titan wings
3692s	it's got like almost like this Double
3693s	Wing thing going on it's too low This
3695s	ship's too large you can't
3698s	[Music]
3699s	it's wonderful
3702s	last but not least the Vindicator
3705s	in all of its Glory
3707s	These Wings that have just chunked up
3709s	even further
3711s	it's nice clean lines
3714s	as you can see all of the tier four
3715s	ships have uh even more emissive lights
3718s	to add that extra little flared Pizzazz
3720s	like these little I don't know what to
3722s	call them like orbs I suppose on your
3724s	ship don't worry they're not weak points
3726s	for you but they do glow with an
3728s	emissive color choice that you choose
3733s	well there's so much there's so much
3735s	here there's so much here and I think
3737s	that right now is actually a good time
3738s	to take a brief
3740s	look
3742s	at where we've come from like just just
3744s	taking like a retrospective and uh this
3746s	is gonna be a little bit more loose fit
3748s	there's not gonna be any sort of like
3749s	crazy slideshows or anything in the in a
3752s	presentation here um but I just kind of
3753s	wanted to walk through a little bit of
3756s	like where ever Space 2 has come from
3759s	and see just how much it's freaking
3761s	transformed I I'm tempted actually I'm
3764s	gonna do I'm gonna do this I'm gonna
3765s	pull up the Prototype okay we're gonna
3768s	pull up the Prototype really quick we're
3770s	gonna stream that for just a moment
3771s	just a moment
3774s	just to like see how far things have
3779s	truly come
3781s	oh my goodness this is this is nuts
3784s	actually nuts to me
3788s	wow
3789s	and uh of course as I'm going through
3792s	these out
3794s	to also uh
3796s	uh you know go through
3799s	is that is the music over there okay no
3801s	no okay uh we're gonna go through a
3804s	number of your questions still because I
3805s	know you I know you've got more I know
3807s	it's still I know they're still coming
3809s	in so let's just uh hopefully this picks
3812s	up
3814s	this wasn't actually planned I just
3815s	thought that this would be fun look at
3819s	the Prototype guys and this is in the
3822s	hands of our backers but it's kind of
3824s	like this exclusive First Look honestly
3827s	like this it says early prototype for a
3830s	very specific reason this has a uh you
3833s	know core ideas and Concepts
3836s	that we hadn't fully fleshed out yet at
3838s	all
3839s	so uh what could go wrong with starting
3842s	a new game I think that this will be
3844s	okay just just have a
3847s	frame rate oh my gosh this the OBS does
3852s	not like this at all so before my
3856s	computer catches fire uh just look at
3859s	this single screen that's all you're
3861s	gonna get to look at uh wow the
3864s	optimization
3866s	oh my goodness
3868s	goodness yup yup okay so this is
3870s	probably why this wasn't in the mix all
3872s	right uh technical difficulties uh
3874s	please hold please hold
3877s	my goodness wow there is just a sliver
3881s	just a wow
3884s	that that's actually Wild
3886s	[Laughter]
3889s	um I think that I think that things have
3891s	optimized a little bit further um I
3893s	would say
3895s	but uh
3897s	that was that was not expected to happen
3899s	at all oh my gosh guys
3902s	that was nuts okay
3905s	um glad that there wasn't an official
3906s	segment we were playing to do with that
3908s	that would have been uh insanely
3909s	impossible to pull off so but yeah so
3912s	let's let's take a trip back now
3914s	um let's take a trip back now and what
3917s	I'm gonna do is we're gonna go through
3918s	just like little segments in history
3919s	together
3921s	little segments in history together just
3923s	to see just how far honestly ever Space
3927s	2 has come so we're gonna go over here
3929s	to the chat segment here uh I think I
3932s	think this is fine I think this is fine
3934s	can we full screen this or something is
3936s	that yeah there we go
3939s	and this is going all the way back to
3941s	when we first
3943s	dropped
3944s	everspace two okay this is the official
3948s	Early Access launch so this is after
3951s	that absolutely atrociously not
3954s	optimized uh prototype
3957s	and what you see here what you see here
3960s	is let me get even closer let's maximize
3963s	this puppy here we go
3965s	the patch notes for version basically
3968s	this is version four of the Prototype if
3971s	you will of
3972s	everspace two and we're I'm not gonna
3974s	like read through all this type of stuff
3975s	but just want to like highlight where
3978s	things have come from because like even
3980s	here this is when we added like
3982s	Crosshair Mouse controls
3985s	what we are the show mouse dead zone on
3988s	screen which I use very much all the

4167s	also before we had a level scaling
4170s	removed so at this time a lot of enemies
4173s	were really close to you it was
4175s	intentionally designed that way but yeah

4230s	people

4232s	lot of people for those of you who
4233s	missed it or didn't even realize this
4236s	kala was the one who added the ability
4239s	to know your percentage of completion
4241s	and the various areas this again this
4244s	happened goodness gravy November 3rd of

4258s	fail you know I'm sorry you know I'm
4260s	sorry that you feel that way we actually
4262s	tried to cut corners for you uh to
4265s	bypass the certification process

4271s	it's gonna be about you know a day
4272s	longer 24 hours so we appreciate your
4274s	patience on that front because otherwise
4276s	if we would have done it by the books
4278s	you'd probably be waiting two weeks so
4280s	hopefully you can accept the fact that
4284s	24 hours is in fact less than two weeks
4287s	but yeah we'll get it to you as soon as
4289s	we can as soon as we can push it out the
4291s	door we will do so

4326s	redone in this this one if you guys
4329s	remember before you just like had a
4330s	single spot you just kept shooting over
4332s	pew pew pew pew pew it's going to show
4334s	you not the Prototype but you know that
4335s	didn't work out single spot you keep
4337s	shooting Intel just gives you all the
4338s	reasons right there we change the visual
4340s	look and feel of all of that
4343s	so gosh dang ridiculous ridiculous
4346s	that's the beginning of That's April
4348s	April 1st that was not an April Fool's
4350s	Day joke we move into August 5th
4353s	this is August 5th Drake gang wars
4357s	hidden another massive update gosh every
4361s	single like look I just keep scrolling
4363s	every single one of these major updates
4366s	like just foreign
4370s	I honestly don't know how we have
4372s	reached 1.0 in some cases
4376s	this team is wild
4378s	this team is insane every single one of
4382s	these these the features added
4384s	the tweaks that went back and adjusted
4387s	all the different various settings and
4389s	balance issues and and even additions to
4391s	the game because of your guys feedback
4394s	another one November 23rd this one is
4398s	what a lot of you guys were playing
4400s	right before today
4402s	the fall update the ancient riffs we're
4405s	there we're almost there November 23rd
4409s	wow
4410s	we still have the Texas speech and some
4412s	people were concerned that for some
4413s	reason it was uh gonna be continued to
4415s	be used no there was always placeholder
4416s	that's why in game when the Texas beach
4418s	is playing under the dialogue it would
4420s	say text to speech placeholder uh not
4422s	sure how we could better convey that but
4424s	regardless yeah fully voiced by both
4426s	English and German man that kind of
4429s	sounded like I was I was dogging on
4430s	people that that came across a little
4432s	bit more salty than it probably should
4434s	have um but yeah like it's also kind of
4437s	ironic though because you guys did enjoy
4439s	the Texas view so much that of course we
4440s	have bang Jack now at the cryptus bowl
4443s	who uses text-to-speech permanently that
4445s	is his voice we were gonna have voice
4448s	lines recorded and in fact I believe we
4450s	did uh Michael you can confirm or deny
4452s	that pretty sure we actually had voice
4454s	lines recorded for that character and
4456s	then we were like you know what the
4457s	community wants this so we're gonna keep
4459s	it
4461s	so thank you good work guys Gigi

4520s	particular I want to highlight Hans
4521s	Christian he's one of the the lead
4522s	developers on everspace 2. he has been
4525s	cracking through that list I think it's
4526s	it's it's
4528s	he completed like over 700.
4532s	700 one of these targeted issues in the
4535s	matter of probably about a month's time

4565s	single one of these like bug fixes and
4567s	tweaks and and everything if we were to
4569s	make just a solid list here

4780s	and I were kind of like hmm how do we
4782s	fit our community uh Ambassador into
4786s	sort of this space um but you might even
4788s	notice this is blocking it but the title
4791s	there says QA and game designer okay QA
4794s	and game designer so this was actually
4795s	prior to me becoming your community
4797s	Ambassador there's a bit of a story
4799s	there we're not gonna go into it because
4801s	right now we're talking about everspace
4802s	two so good but I went to like a little
4805s	studio uh to get a green screen to
4808s	record this little segment of the
4810s	kickstarter
4811s	oh my gosh
4814s	what a fun time and even like the the
4817s	interface is so different look remember
4818s	the logos wow oh my gosh I forgot the
4822s	logos

4834s	like Splurge or like okay I can't take
4836s	this man's energy I am I kind of
4839s	apologize because I'm just a high energy
4840s	person but also I'm not gonna apologize
4842s	because one freaking o baby ah I am just
4845s	I am on Cloud Nine okay and uh but yeah
4848s	you can watch any of these videos uh on
4850s	our YouTube this is a this is from the
4852s	Prototype wow oh my goodness the first
4856s	look at a legendary a legendary Auto
4859s	Cannon wow that's changed a little bit
4862s	oh my goodness UVA UVA over here yep
4866s	nice nice looking great as always that
4869s	man is a machine honestly when it comes
4871s	to physical health so is Michael friggin
4873s	they're always doing something like bike
4875s	riding or biking a casual Mountain
4877s	that's like 10 000 kilometers tall it's
4880s	it's nuts they're they're impressive
4882s	they're wonderful people
4883s	uh let's see and we also like topped it
4885s	off with a little bit of trailers of
4887s	what's to come uh man I'm just gonna
4890s	play this even though there's no sound
4891s	just right here just to see yeah oh my
4894s	gosh
4897s	now this this actually still looks
4899s	pretty good and pretty decent to the you
4901s	know the core experience that we ended
4903s	up uh uh hitting but man that's just
4907s	wow this this is like this is nuts to me
4910s	all right now we get into some secret
4912s	details too this is fun this is fun
4915s	all right here we are we've got some
4917s	gameplay features that you can uh
4919s	cleverly see or hear of what we had
4922s	designed this was last modified you can
4924s	see here last modified November 9th 2017
4927s	and it was probably touched up because
4929s	the editing was wrong on the page and
4931s	they needed to format it differently but
4932s	like this this is like the foundation of
4935s	whatever Space 2 look like I want to
4937s	kind of move over so you can see all of
4938s	this as much as possible this is also in
4940s	the announcement on Steam if you can
4942s	follow this and you know zoom in even
4944s	closer if you want to
4946s	um but the the first tier features was
4948s	that it needed to be an open world
4949s	exploration space combat narrative
4951s	driven game one two three second tier
4954s	features Game World home base and
4955s	economy system player ships for space
4958s	combat NPC units friend neutral infos
4960s	and 3D orbits uh the levels themselves
4963s	for space combat the narratives the hero
4964s	story the lore and the Cinemax all right
4966s	every single item on those completely
4969s	reached third tier we could go into even
4971s	more detail but um let me just say that
4975s	in 2017 with our initial Vision being
4977s	these elements
4979s	I am rather confident that every single
4982s	one of them was hit every single one of
4985s	our core initial Vision was actually hit
4989s	I'm checking right now to make sure that
4991s	I'm not being a like silly on this front
4994s	and yeah
4996s	um
4998s	yeah there's been a couple of justments
5001s	to how some of them came together okay
5003s	all right so it's like 95. okay for
5007s	coming up with an idea back in 2017 to
5010s	where we're at now alongside Community
5012s	sport
5013s	that is ridiculous
5016s	that is actually absurd okay
5019s	yeah and then we have even more
5021s	information on that I don't I don't
5023s	actually want to go through all of this
5024s	because it's so much but uh the point is
5027s	is that
5030s	Michael is a madman and this team are
5033s	crazy that's that's it the end stream's
5036s	over
5040s	2017 hasn't really been that long yeah
5041s	yeah yeah so um Early Access hasn't
5044s	really access was only a little over two
5045s	years
5046s	um but yeah development like the concept
5049s	phase of games like before you even see
5051s	a first graphic of the game of course
5053s	it's got to be written down and compiled
5055s	and you know you have your all of your
5058s	tools to to put those elements together
5061s	right like that's where this is coming
5062s	from this is before even the Prototype
5064s	was made right so yeah yeah that
5067s	ideation started in the minds of UVA and
5070s	Michael and key members of the team to
5073s	make sure everything brought together I
5075s	know Marco was involved Andy Hans
5076s	Christian goodness so many key players
5078s	here to make sure that everything would
5081s	reach the destination uh we were aiming
5084s	for and then there's words here uh again
5087s	you can read this on you know on the
5090s	actual thing but basically it's saying
5092s	uh things are good we're excited
5095s	thank you for your support uh then we
5098s	have this keone star system or is it
5101s	keyone I don't actually know how to
5102s	pronounce it I need I need Hive Hive
5105s	please help me understand how to
5106s	pronounce this um I think it's Keon
5109s	last star system that you'll be able to
5112s	enjoy we did say there would be at least
5114s	star systems and there are in fact at
5116s	least six star systems
5118s	very pleased with the results of this
5120s	one once you get there I think you will
5122s	enjoy it too we also have the final
5124s	Story chapter G spoilers Michael why
5126s	would you share
5127s	it's fine it's fine but yeah anyway uh
5130s	events of Aerospace one do carry over to
5132s	Aerospace too I imagine that some of you
5133s	probably recognize that there would be
5135s	some carryovers uh but yeah new boss
5137s	fights new legendaries new player perks
5139s	fun fun tier four ships we actually
5142s	showed you all of those early on stream
5143s	wonderful commodity trading definitely
5146s	had a blast nightmare difficulty yeah
5149s	wow and then we have down here at the
5152s	bottom what comes next so much more so
5157s	much more so I just want to say
5161s	but if you guys continue coming to these
5162s	streams as we continue our journey
5165s	into more everspace 2. we're gonna still
5169s	give you a little teases we're gonna
5171s	still show you what's going on
5172s	internally we're gonna give you that
5174s	slice of pie to be excited about Cuts we
5178s	still have a bit of free content we just
5180s	want to push out there you don't have to
5182s	make any purchases it's just like ah you
5184s	know the game is done at 1.0 but let's
5187s	have some fun and make some more stuff
5189s	there's some stuff that we would just
5190s	like to add if we think it would be
5191s	great
5193s	you'll get it
5195s	for free we also want to work on some
5198s	story driven components some a little
5201s	bit more expansive than not and in order
5203s	to do that we have received a government
5206s	grant over in Germany our our home base
5209s	if you will and our
5211s	going after a pretty sizable expansion
5215s	for everspace 2 which will be out
5218s	scheduled about mid to late 2024. I'm
5222s	sure it's probably written like mid 2024
5223s	here but I'm just gonna you know I'm
5225s	just gonna say mid to late just
5227s	just to cover just to cover right now
5230s	you never know what's gonna happen
5231s	hopefully it's gonna be mid though
5233s	um yeah there's probably gonna be an
5235s	imminent hotfix
5236s	it's bound to happen you know internally
5239s	and all of our little uh NDA testers and
5241s	stuff with like 40 sets of eyes on it uh
5245s	maybe at most
5246s	um that's not nearly quite the number as
5248s	thousands of players so when you find
5251s	those bugs or have those core issues we
5253s	will absolutely track them down and
5256s	provide fixes we also of course have
5259s	consoles coming out in the summer as
5263s	well nice little screenshot of the
5264s	Stellar Edition here with the steel back
5267s	case the 64-page mini art book the uh
5270s	original game soundtrack all of these
5272s	things soon TM good good good
5276s	some scope changes were also in the mix
5280s	I think maybe that's important to dive
5282s	into as well and we'll just talk about
5284s	this kind of also briefly but you know
5286s	there were some things that we did want
5288s	to do that just kind of didn't quite
5291s	work out in the moment and those
5293s	specific things are listed right here
5296s	we even talked about them I personally
5298s	talked about them in the streams because
5300s	they were in the plans and we had to
5302s	adjust because there were greater
5304s	priorities more important to the game
5305s	Space like uh more item sets more
5307s	Catalyst cockpit customization
5309s	customization and difficulty settings
5310s	affecting not just stats okay all of
5313s	these things were modified changed or
5316s	dumped for 1.0 that does not mean they
5319s	will never happen it means that it just
5321s	didn't make 1.0
5323s	so uh but because of that we were able
5326s	to redirect our focus and to more
5330s	Community requests so I mean I've spoken
5331s	on this one before but ship
5332s	customization is a sound example of this
5335s	because before we were just gonna do
5337s	like this internal cockpit customization
5340s	sort of thing
5341s	and we found out that the work that we
5345s	would have to pour into that
5346s	was not going to have nearly a visual
5349s	effect as we really wanted it to have
5352s	so while it would have been cool for
5354s	sure it made much more sense for us to
5357s	go you know what what would have a
5359s	strong visual impact and that's why we
5360s	rotated we saw the request coming out
5363s	anyway we're like let's make the cockpit
5365s	color changeable as well as give
5367s	different engine trails and we're very
5369s	happy with those results I hope that you
5371s	will be too so going that particular
5374s	route gives much more visual
5376s	customization especially in third person
5378s	mode
5379s	without sacrificing
5382s	the direction that we needed to take
5383s	priority elements
5385s	last but not least
5387s	man that's a glorious image of a
5389s	leviathan creature ah I love that
5392s	concept piece
5394s	that is great last but not least we do
5398s	have a little bit of stuff to talk about
5400s	for our Linux player base we're going to
5401s	try and swoop through this very quickly
5404s	um and yeah so basically let's let's
5407s	start here um I want to take this I want
5411s	to take this model I want to focus on
5412s	all of our Linux players out there okay
5413s	so like everybody else you can just kind
5415s	of like sit down you can kind of back
5416s	off because I want to give my full
5418s	undivided attention to our Linux player
5419s	base
5420s	we were taking this very seriously okay
5422s	very seriously our approach to Native
5425s	Linux support was there from the
5427s	beginning I know a lot of you have been
5429s	questioning that like oh well did you
5430s	let's try to like tack it on at the end
5432s	no
5432s	no this was actually planned from the
5435s	very very beginning of development okay
5436s	I want you guys to know that we thought
5438s	there was a really great handle one
5441s	[Music]
5444s	why we kept preaching it that's why we
5445s	said yeah this is totally gonna happen
5447s	we've gone through the motions of
5448s	everspace one and
5452s	well
5454s	yeah we had that announcement last
5456s	week's stream and it sucked for our
5458s	Linux player base
5460s	and there's not really much else to say
5463s	because it's not going to be native
5466s	Linux and I know that a lot of you guys
5468s	that was the point right that was the
5470s	point of playing on Linux it was to be
5473s	native proton
5475s	no like I know it's not going to cut you
5477s	it's going to satisfy other Linux users
5480s	out there okay and we are going to
5482s	further optimize Linux via proton okay
5484s	that's what we can do
5486s	unfortunately
5488s	we cannot pursue native Linux not at
5490s	this time okay
5493s	that's where we're at
5495s	we have opened up the doors
5498s	for the backers who saw our premise of
5501s	bringing native Linux to everspace 2.
5503s	way back when the kickstarter opened
5505s	okay so if you are one of those people
5507s	who are like I just can't stand proton I
5510s	like this is what I wanted okay we're
5512s	gonna refund you that is what we're
5514s	gonna have to do that's gonna be our
5516s	best result okay
5518s	I'm not going to pretend that this is
5520s	something that's pleasurable for us and
5522s	I'm really sorry that this is the result
5523s	that we've come to I also hope you know
5526s	that like
5528s	I I'm hurting internally too for this
5531s	great team who honestly put so much
5534s	effort into trying to bring this to the
5535s	table and I know that for you guys those
5538s	Linux players out there this could have
5540s	been a flagship title for the Linux
5542s	community
5543s	and it fell to the Wayside look much
5546s	like a lot of other native Linux games
5548s	that then had to be utilized in a
5551s	different way
5552s	all right
5553s	that sounds really sad and depressing
5555s	but again I wanted to make sure you guys
5557s	know that we are taking this incredibly
5558s	seriously this isn't just a matter of us
5561s	oh well you know it's a small player
5563s	base no no no actually this was
5565s	something we truly wanted to do and it
5567s	sucks that we weren't able to bring it
5570s	to fruition so you have my condolences
5572s	on your feelings on where you're at with
5575s	how we've gone about this process and
5578s	we've learned some even greater elements
5580s	regarding how this needs to be
5582s	communicated as well as how to just
5584s	establish native Linux in the freaking
5586s	first place and moving forward we'll see
5589s	what can be done but right now
5592s	please know full compensation for any
5597s	Linux backers expecting native limits
5600s	complete compensation if you are a
5602s	backup so you can do that process over
5604s	on the kickstarter
5606s	all right everyone else you can now join
5607s	back in everyone else you can join back
5609s	in thank you so much I really need to
5610s	talk to lunch Community because that
5612s	again very important stuff so very
5615s	important stuff
5616s	let's bring up the mood a little bit
5618s	because even though there were some
5620s	hiccups along the way you know it's
5622s	still important to note we have overcome
5625s	a lot of hurdles we've been able to
5628s	Champion elements that we didn't think
5630s	were going to be possible through your
5633s	support the feedback and the ideas that
5636s	you've poured out through all of the
5638s	channels really whether it was a
5639s	Mainline delivery or it was through an
5642s	experimental Branch wherever that came
5644s	from you guys really did push this to
5647s	the next level and truly this is a
5649s	massive thank you to accomplish these
5652s	tasks
5653s	are we done with every single little
5655s	tidbit within the game Space there's
5658s	going to be a couple more tweaks and
5659s	elements here and there I mean we've
5660s	already been seeing a little bit of
5661s	feedback within the short time the
5663s	game's been live uh wildly enough and we
5666s	will keep doing our damnedest to bring
5670s	these elements to where they truly need
5672s	to be from our quality standards here at
5674s	Rockfish so that is how it is going down
5678s	that is how we're bringing this all
5679s	together and I do hope that you are
5681s	going to join us for this continued wild
5684s	ride look at all these features for
5685s	freaking 1.0 the differences from fall
5687s	this is again this is just the
5690s	differences from Fall alone oh my
5692s	goodness
5694s	hi this is the this is absurd this is I
5698s	can't even
5700s	goodness gravy Hunt's Christian
5705s	and I'm just I'm so incredibly proud of
5707s	this team for doing everything they
5708s	possibly can for pushing the limits of
5711s	every element that we have sought after
5714s	to ensure that it got the care and love
5716s	and support in order to be at the
5719s	quality standard that it needed to be
5721s	and if it didn't if it wasn't reaching a
5724s	quality stand that we wanted it we found
5725s	a way to either work around it or we cut
5727s	it out completely to find alternative
5729s	means I know that not everyone's going
5732s	to please be pleased with every single
5734s	one of those decisions but I truly mean
5737s	this we are so satisfied with the
5738s	results not just because of our vision
5740s	and because of this team but because of
5743s	you because of your support because of
5745s	what you've brought to the table and
5747s	being so passionate and so active
5749s	through the course of this early access
5753s	absolutely Wild
5755s	absolutely wild so
5758s	[Music]
5760s	rather positive we've got a bajillion
5762s	questions
5763s	to dive into so I'm going to take a very
5765s	brief break after that uh much longer
5768s	retrospective than I thought it was
5769s	going to be but wow what a ride what an
5772s	insane ride
5773s	and let's um yeah we're gonna get back
5776s	into some gameplay while answering those
5778s	questions so so give me one second to
5780s	line things up
5783s	and then away we'll go
5798s	[Music]
5806s	[Music]
5822s	I see a question over in the chat that
5823s	says can I still be a backer
5826s	oh a little late on that one
5830s	goodness uh no we we do not have things
5833s	open for backers anymore so I'm gonna go
5836s	ahead and start playing another build
5838s	out here uh just for some kicks and
5840s	Giggles uh let's go to let's go over
5843s	here to the Drake signals and uh Gary go
5845s	ahead and start throwing some questions
5847s	at us so that we can start get those
5849s	clarifying details going
5851s	uh girl one of them uh is really a
5855s	request uh some people want to see some
5857s	planetary surfaces
5859s	um in the game if you could show that
5860s	off yeah sure I'll start on the way to
5863s	do that and go ahead and jump over to
5865s	the next question excellent
5867s	um slithering peanut bit of a cheeky one
5869s	this one is there or will there be any
5872s	Viridian paint colors the illegal one
5874s	from the mission obviously
5878s	there is a virgin paint color
5881s	it's in there
5883s	yeah they probably haven't seen him yeah
5885s	definitely be looking around um I want
5887s	to go to the the Gilbert naval base in
5889s	all of its Glory however I will say that
5891s	OBS and everspace 2 whenever we go there
5894s	they don't play nice together so we'd
5896s	probably get some frame rate issues
5898s	um I'm gonna try and go somewhere else
5900s	uh let's go to the maybe go to motor
5903s	Rift that might might be nice and
5904s	calming oh
5908s	hey I'm gonna briefly talk about this
5909s	before we answer another question
5914s	up more down to each other I believe you
5916s	know the procedure at this point so
5918s	what's happening right here let me
5920s	explain the procedure at this point when
5922s	you are playing through everspace 2
5923s	there are levels associated with all the
5926s	locations okay this is not something
5928s	where everything just dynamically scales
5930s	straight to you if you heard somebody
5933s	else talking about it it's because they
5934s	were on a different version or a older
5936s	version of the game that is no longer
5938s	the case every single location has its
5941s	own level Association now there are key
5944s	intervals of the story
5947s	how you are moving through this process
5949s	that will then level up previously bound
5951s	areas we are at level 30. this is the
5954s	final one to hit and it boosts
5956s	everything so that it is relevant at max
5959s	level
5961s	okay it boosts everything up this is the
5964s	final one
5965s	so any sort of side quests or missions
5968s	that you haven't quite done yet look at
5969s	this we haven't completed these they
5971s	were lesser levels but now they're level
5974s	30s you will get all of the rewards
5976s	accordingly through that
5979s	um and of course all the itemization
5981s	will then be adjusted as well
5984s	and uh yeah I think that's I think that
5987s	makes sense for the majority of this
5989s	audience I think probably
5993s	it all boosts up at the end game for
5996s	relevancy of everything
5997s	but on your journey through there are
6000s	locations that are great
6003s	to to go for if you're like under
6004s	leveled and there are locations that
6006s	will absolutely Savage you if you do not
6009s	prepare
6011s	so let's see what this does to our frame
6012s	rate I want to show this location per
6014s	request while I'm doing that let's get
6016s	another question in
6018s	let's get another question all right we
6021s	have a spoon night he's wanting to know
6024s	if every patch note was compiled to one
6026s	list how many words would it have
6028s	compared to everspace's two dialogues oh
6032s	it's about four times
6034s	it's about four times if you're looking
6035s	specifically well actually I should
6037s	clarify if you're looking at the
6039s	dialogue delivered by voice actors alone
6042s	like the characters within the game
6044s	Space as well as descriptions as well as
6047s	like the the characters in the Kodak and
6049s	everything
6050s	um that that's like four times the
6053s	amount of text
6055s	um the question specifically asking
6057s	regarding coding is that
6059s	is is that what I understood
6062s	no it's it's every patch note was
6064s	compiled to one list how many words
6065s	would have oh my gosh I completely I
6068s	could that went completely over my head
6070s	I'm so I got this
6072s	we've had so many discussions of people
6073s	wondering like well how much dialogue is
6075s	in the game it is an absurd amount of
6078s	dialogue honestly so much text so many
6081s	translations and uh yeah it's it's nuts
6085s	it's it really is nuts um regarding the
6088s	patch notes I'd have to do account why
6089s	don't you get on that can you tell us
6093s	that's right that's right so this is
6096s	this is a um this is a location that you
6098s	can absolutely go to a bit later in the
6101s	game actually so this might be the first
6102s	time streaming at this location I think
6104s	but uh regardless uh let's go ahead and
6107s	answer another question while I'm just
6108s	floating around frame rates looking okay
6111s	so we're gonna keep going yeah okay uh
6113s	right the one question we've had just
6115s	coming uh from a new player uh one
6118s	question difficulty settings still have
6121s	an impact on Loot and resources drop
6123s	were it or is it still this game and
6125s	it's scaling rate or any changes yeah it
6127s	does not impact any drop rates
6129s	whatsoever we in fact we intentionally
6131s	designed it to not do that we did not
6134s	want uh drop rates to be affected by
6136s	difficulty
6137s	so the only time where that is
6140s	technically true is when you get into
6141s	the lunacy level of a rift in which case
6144s	the lunacy does impact the quality of
6148s	loot
6151s	Sly my pretties
6154s	all right next question please
6157s	uh we haven't got anything lined up uh
6159s	however I just want to point out to
6161s	everybody that's in the chat um if you
6162s	do come across some bugs we've tried to
6164s	release the game and obviously as best
6166s	condition as we can please do stick them
6168s	up on the steam forums for us to catalog
6171s	and look at and then we'll try to deal
6173s	with them as soon as we can yeah for
6176s	sure for sure yeah I mean I think I
6178s	think it's fair to say I mean we're all
6179s	Gamers here let's let's be realistic
6182s	um any time a game Hits full release
6183s	launch any game at all like you name a
6186s	game and I'll tell you yup that happened
6188s	any game that launches it's gonna need
6191s	just a little bit of something else that
6193s	kind of follows up and we were planning
6196s	on doing that we know it's inevitable
6198s	this game is not the epitome of
6200s	perfection in the slightest you know so
6203s	help us achieve it help us get there so
6206s	if you do encounter a bug if you're
6207s	having some sort of problem even if it's
6208s	specific for your system like your specs
6211s	let us know so we can do something about
6215s	it because we do want to make sure we've
6217s	got this and the most accessible way oh
6221s	I forgot this is the blocked way I'm
6222s	going the wrong way
6223s	um we want to make sure this is the most
6225s	accessible and the most optimized for
6227s	every single player out there as many
6230s	users as we can and we need your help to
6232s	accomplish that so we do hope that you
6234s	enjoy playing the game if you encounter
6236s	something crazy
6237s	please consider bringing it to our
6240s	attention on the forums on the Discord
6242s	on Reddit on you know whatever your your
6244s	comfortable space is to do so uh so we
6247s	can address it
6249s	so we can address it
6253s	so yeah let's go ahead and do another
6255s	question
6257s	as I'm pummeling this fool oh maybe not
6259s	those nothing lined up just yet okay
6264s	oh actually sorry stories just asked ad
6266s	dreadnought's going to make it into the
6267s	game eventually ah that is a
6270s	wow that's a that's a wonderful question
6272s	I
6274s	I mean I can personally say I hope so I
6277s	can personally say that
6278s	um but you know I cannot guarantee that
6281s	it's going to happen I know that there
6283s	were a lot of Concepts and ideas that we
6286s	had regarding the outlaw Destroyer if
6287s	those of you out there are like what is
6289s	what are you talking about what's the
6290s	what's the outlaw Destroyer here hang on
6292s	a second maybe I can hook you up maybe I
6294s	can hook you up oh I moved my folder
6297s	that has all the concept art I'd have to
6298s	dig a little bit dang it well regardless
6300s	it's a large the the concept of the
6302s	outlawed Dreadnought is a massive ship
6306s	that you would actually be able to fly
6308s	inside of okay that's the concept
6311s	was this ever realized no
6314s	it was not
6316s	it was not realized but that doesn't
6318s	mean it can't be
6321s	so yeah can't be more direct than that I
6324s	know it's a non-answer and it's
6326s	it's you know it's strange but we do
6328s	have DLC in the works uh actually not
6330s	quite in the word so it's I'm even
6332s	talking about it we're kind of writing
6333s	down ideas so it's in the works we could
6335s	say that
6336s	um as well as you know uh free updates
6338s	uh at least one free update careful with
6342s	the wording there at least one free
6344s	update
6345s	uh following full release as well so
6351s	next question please if there's one
6353s	um yeah I've got one just come through
6355s	at rival uh over on uh YouTube is asking
6358s	were there any games in particular that
6360s	you drew inspiration from when creating
6362s	ever first suit I know obviously we've
6364s	gone through this before but oh yeah
6365s	it's fine I love the question I love the
6367s	question yeah because there's so much
6369s	influence that we honestly Drew from and
6371s	I mean even in this combat right here
6373s	right now it might even be possible to
6375s	see where some of the influence was
6378s	drawn from
6379s	um you know we can go as far back as
6382s	like the original Elite and Privateer
6385s	and Wing commander and descent and you
6387s	can throw Star Fox in there you can
6389s	throw
6391s	you can throw Star Wars X-Wing TIE
6394s	fighter Rogue Squadron uh you can like
6396s	it's a lot of these classic spaceship
6398s	shooters that we drew a lot of
6400s	inspiration from and it certainly goes
6401s	up to
6402s	um it certainly goes up to even to like
6404s	freelancer right it goes into freelancer
6406s	we took a lot of inspiration from a
6407s	freelancer I think Chris Roberts you
6409s	know he he was do he was making plays
6411s	right and there's a lot that we enjoyed
6413s	out of that experience where you have a
6415s	bit more of an Arcadia approach instead
6418s	of going so simulation that you know it
6421s	it can take a while to get into that
6423s	nothing wrong with space sims okay like
6425s	nothing wrong with space sims but that's
6427s	just not the direction we wanted to take
6428s	the game right we wanted to do something
6431s	else
6432s	we wanted to do something else and so
6436s	that's what we're doing
6437s	in addition to all those games we just
6439s	mentioned as kind of the the core of the
6442s	title
6443s	we absolutely Drew inspiration from
6445s	other sources like novels and books and
6447s	TV series etc etc etc we could go on
6449s	forever but Blade Runners is a big one
6452s	that we drew some inspiration from
6453s	especially Michael in particular we drew
6456s	a lot of inspiration from like Dune for
6459s	example we drew inspiration from
6461s	Firefly you could even put Spaceballs in
6464s	there uh wow uh you could do
6467s	goodness uh
6469s	there's so there's so much I mean Diablo
6472s	and Destiny should also feel a little
6475s	bit familiar if you're playing this game
6476s	those are absolutely pieces of influence
6480s	um looking over you know I did say
6483s	Spaceballs not even not even joking
6490s	I don't care
6494s	well you're gonna be in trouble cause
6497s	we're gonna steal your air
6501s	cause what you got is what we need and
6503s	all we do are Dirty Deeds
6507s	watch out all right I'm done I'm done
6509s	all right thank God for that
6513s	Savage Ludicrous Speed oh I see it I see
6516s	it beautiful
6518s	yeah Queen Commander definitely all
6521s	right we're gonna try and do this my
6522s	we're probably gonna tank the the OBS a
6525s	little bit but uh really really enjoy
6527s	the visual appeal of this so I'm gonna
6528s	try it anyway we're probably gonna lose
6530s	some frames but I did want to show you
6532s	this location I feel like the one I just
6534s	showed you it's a it's a it's a little
6536s	smaller site so let's give you a bigger
6538s	one
6539s	so very very good
6542s	I've seen the quotes in the chat it's
6544s	beautiful thank you so much
6546s	thank you so much everyone
6548s	uh frames are okay
6552s	yeah we're just gonna
6555s	dip down in the water
6559s	just take a little dip
6563s	you could possibly go wrong down here
6572s	oh yeah
6579s	let's let's make it incredibly
6581s	atmospheric oh yeah
6584s	that's not creepy at all
6587s	I also chose the wrong side to come down
6589s	on because there's actually stuff that
6590s	you do find underwater there's hidden
6592s	loot down here
6595s	but uh yeah you do have to be a little
6597s	bit careful in your searching
6600s	pop out oh yeah here we go
6604s	we're really happy with the way that
6605s	this location came out
6608s	delightfully atmospheric is what I will
6611s	call it
6618s	oh that's gonna hurt my drones don't
6620s	hurt my drones
6621s	we can't repair them with the Vindicator
6623s	by picking up those wrecks
6626s	out of here nice Focus
6629s	no no don't don't put my drones no no
6632s	Jeffrey don't do it here
6635s	let's focus down their carrier
6641s	oh yeah that's good damage that's good
6644s	damage
6652s	noise
6655s	foreign
6662s	get ourselves out of that predicament
6665s	beautiful
6667s	and Gary when you do have more questions
6668s	go ahead and feed them to me so guys do
6671s	know that we have about 10 minutes left
6673s	in this particular celebration
6674s	retrospective live stream to show you uh
6677s	where we've been
6678s	how things have all come together uh you
6681s	know the most beautiful Joys we've had
6683s	and you know some of the things that we
6686s	you know how to step around and have had
6688s	to kind of deal with
6690s	um it's all been part of this process
6691s	and we are so thankful that you've been
6693s	in for the ride to make this truly the
6695s	best game it can possibly be so thank
6698s	you and uh questions
6701s	what do we got uh right just one
6705s	question we've got lined up to my own
6706s	fungus on YouTube
6708s	um and I'm wondering if you could Define
6710s	the different ship types and how they
6712s	differ in gameplay
6715s	that is a fantastic phenomenal question
6718s	uh how many credits oh this is great
6721s	okay I'm gonna use a Dev cheat to
6723s	basically get out of Dodge and head over
6725s	to Prescott immediately
6727s	immediately just insta warp Dev cheat
6733s	because I want to show you this let's
6735s	talk about the ship classes that's a
6736s	question that's come up a lot actually
6737s	in a
6739s	sometimes it's hard to fully explain so
6741s	let's just do that let's just explain
6743s	so we're currently flying is The
6745s	Vindicator it is a
6748s	it's a drone boat
6751s	doesn't have a lot slots for weapons you
6753s	got two primaries and a secondary
6755s	so you have to be particular about what
6757s	you're choosing one could argue that my
6759s	build right here sucks
6761s	kind of does actually but um but the
6765s	main key ingredient here is that your
6766s	drones they can do some pretty distinct
6769s	damage every single ship has what's
6772s	called expertise that you can improve as
6774s	a stack which helps that uniqueness of
6777s	the ship itself
6778s	exceed greatness right increases it so
6781s	much more
6783s	and then every single ship has a special
6785s	this one's called reanimator so you can
6788s	pick up
6789s	um basically floating garbage debris and
6792s	repair your drones uh we have its
6794s	ultimate which Focus fires all your
6796s	drones on a Target every single ship I'm
6798s	blocking things now I'm sorry you're
6800s	gonna have to deal with it every single
6801s	class of ship has unique passives that
6804s	it can only have so even though you
6806s	can't see it one of them here I have an
6809s	extra drone slot none of the other ships
6811s	can even have drones
6813s	so this getting an extra drone slot is
6815s	increasing that from five to six
6818s	so there's a lot of distinctness that
6821s	occurs between ship classes so let's
6823s	talk a little bit more about the other
6825s	ship classes too
6829s	so we have the Vanguard here I was
6830s	flying this early in the Stream this
6831s	thing is the fastest ship uh and what it
6835s	does is it gets a bonus damage and
6837s	firing at the rear specifically bonus
6839s	crit chance and in addition to that it
6842s	also has the ultimate known as time
6844s	extender and it has overcharged so
6846s	anytime you're boosting your Shield can
6848s	double So that's its format of
6850s	protection you always want to be
6851s	boosting this thing you want to maximize
6853s	your Shields through that process we
6855s	have the Stinger the Stinger is another
6857s	light fighter it's pretty dang fast not
6858s	fast as the Vanguard but who needs to be
6861s	fast when you got more guns this has a
6863s	third hardpoint that is activated
6865s	anytime you use a device because it is a
6868s	device master all of your devices also
6871s	get increased by one additional level
6872s	and it has void swarm as its ultimate oh
6875s	I love it it's delicious it just flies
6877s	around and consumes your opponent's
6879s	ships and then brings it back and
6881s	repairs you we've got the striker this
6883s	guy loves close combat he's got a
6885s	Quantum tether that when you apply it to
6887s	a Target
6888s	it binds itself to everything else
6890s	firing at said targets hits everything
6894s	it's bound to very powerful when there's
6897s	a strong middle Target focus with a
6900s	bunch of Fighters trying to protect it
6902s	in addition to that the striker also has
6905s	the expertise of gaining additional
6907s	boost speed so want to be inside of that
6909s	close combat range it will get you there
6911s	next up we have the Sentinel this is the
6913s	starting ship this bad boy uses an
6916s	induction specialty so the more Shields
6918s	you have the faster your fire rate is it
6921s	goes up to a maximum of 20 when your
6923s	Shields are full its ultimate is Emperor
6926s	Palpatine a static overload and when you
6929s	fire this bad boy it will Branch out an
6931s	arc lightning in every single Direction
6933s	uh and just eradicate it's it's
6936s	wonderful now it's single Target DPS
6938s	this is not so great but the fact that
6940s	it's hitting everything all at the same
6942s	time and you can change those targets
6943s	whenever unlike the striker which the
6946s	striker can only focus on one
6948s	um The Sentinel just completely crushes
6951s	things right it's it's delightful
6953s	um I think that its expertise is Shield
6956s	damage reduction so it's just a straight
6959s	up mitigation for your Shields absorb
6962s	being damaged completely negating it
6965s	next up we have the Interceptor which I
6968s	had to do a double take that that almost
6970s	looked like a scout I was like whoa hang
6972s	on a second but that's uh that's cool so
6974s	the Interceptor is all about fire rate
6976s	and Firepower
6978s	it's got a power converter
6980s	um and it's similarly useful to how it
6983s	was in everspace one to where when you
6985s	run out of energy for your weapons you
6988s	can keep firing using the energy from
6990s	your Boost the reason I say like ever
6991s	space one is because ever space one
6992s	combined both your weapons and your
6995s	Boost into one energy slot so it's kind
6998s	of like that if you want more docadaka
7002s	you can just pull it straight out of
7003s	your engine
7004s	in addition it's got weapon overdrive
7006s	which increases fire rate increases
7009s	damage increases uh redness uh literally
7013s	your screen goes red because it's just
7015s	like violent mode and uh just the
7018s	Outsourcing of damage is is fantastic
7020s	it's delightful next up we have the
7023s	gunship it has a turret as well as two
7026s	additional hard points so
7028s	every single weapon in the game when
7030s	used by the gunship deals twice as much
7033s	damage but drains its energy twice as
7035s	quickly there's a lot of ways that you
7037s	can work around that so it can be a very
7040s	effective Choice the turret is automated
7043s	when you utilize it and it will lock
7046s	onto your foes and just blast in The
7048s	Smithereens it is the alt though so it
7050s	does have to be charged up it's a very
7053s	powerful alt because you don't have to
7054s	focus fire and it can recharge fairly
7057s	quickly if you get the right build
7058s	around it so don't look at that and be
7060s	like oh this alt is just a turret in
7062s	comparison to freaking uh unlimited
7065s	power over here no no it's it's very
7067s	effective very effective next up we have
7070s	the bomber with arguably the best alt
7073s	actually right after saying talking
7074s	about the turret but anyway the bomber
7076s	is all about converting secondaries into
7079s	Pure Energy so instead of using the
7082s	secondary weapon you're like not
7084s	shooting out missiles you're creating
7086s	energy missiles firing those and it
7089s	recharges and you can do that constantly
7091s	just has to recharge it has the arc 9000
7094s	for those who are not familiar with it
7095s	it's like The BFG all right it's like
7098s	The BFG fires forward hits everything
7100s	even close to it and then it erupts in a
7103s	massive explosion that if you're not
7105s	careful can also quickly eliminate
7107s	yourself
7108s	we have The Vindicator we talked about
7110s	is reanimator blah blah blah and then
7112s	finally we have the scout
7115s	well we have the Scout the Scout is a
7118s	delightful little ship it's highly
7120s	maneuverable it's not uh the fastest of
7123s	the light Fighters but uh it's got some
7125s	great handling regardless and this thing
7128s	loves range it's special increases the
7132s	damage the further the distance you are
7134s	from your phone its ultimate gives you a
7137s	cloak if you strike from your cloak you
7139s	do a ridiculous amount of bonus damage
7142s	combine those two in and of itself
7144s	you're already looking at dropping foes
7147s	in a ridiculous fashion before they even
7149s	realize you're in the area
7152s	um yeah that's your tour of all the
7153s	different ships they're very distinct
7155s	they each have unique traits bound to
7157s	them again I didn't even go over all the
7158s	different passes but each one of those
7160s	can kind of help Define a unique style
7162s	or play even further based on the device
7165s	usage you have it surrounding the
7167s	different items that you are
7168s	capitalizing on etc
7170s	etc
7171s	etc and just so everybody is clear no
7174s	item in the entire game is exclusive to
7177s	any class as we just mentioned about the
7180s	Scout being great at range of course
7182s	it's going to prefer something like the
7184s	railgun of course this is the longest
7186s	ranged weapon in the entire game but
7188s	that doesn't mean we can't use it here
7190s	on our Vindicator so it's going to come
7192s	down to the build that you establish the
7194s	modifiers you have present the passives
7196s	in place the devices being used the
7199s	perks you have set up for yourself to
7201s	bring everything together I also missed
7203s	something else there there's a lot
7204s	there's a lot
7206s	and so wow that was the summary and it
7209s	took like 10 minutes
7215s	but that actually does bring us to the
7216s	end of the stream goodness that was that
7218s	was a lot but hopefully that was
7220s	informative so you guys now have a much
7221s	better understanding of the different
7223s	freaking chips
7224s	uh because that's that's important to
7226s	know the ships also last last bit last
7228s	bit
7229s	um the ships themselves
7233s	will become available once you get to a
7237s	certain part in the story uh from ship
7239s	dealers so at the very beginning of the
7242s	game you're gonna be flying around in
7244s	the
7245s	um probably the most the greatest
7247s	all-arounder which is the Sentinel for
7249s	everspace two it's the energy fighter
7251s	it's going to it's it's why am I
7254s	describing it I can just show you it's
7255s	this bad boy
7256s	and uh yeah it's gonna give you a little
7259s	bit of an edge in all playing fields
7262s	um and then once you're ready to try
7263s	another one just swap out your ship for
7265s	another one or straight up purchase a
7267s	new one so you can hold multiple ships
7269s	at your home base and uh yeah cool
7273s	excellent ETA on day one patch
7276s	um
7278s	hopefully hopefully we don't have to do
7281s	a day one patch unless there's major
7283s	problems that I'm not knowing are going
7285s	on but pretty sure that we killed any of
7287s	the major issues before launch
7289s	uh but I digress
7291s	I digress so guys this is actually the
7294s	conclusion of the stream I know there
7296s	were so many more questions that were
7298s	asked and I am so thankful that you guys
