14:15 that has got to be one of the best dialogues I have seen in any game. It feels so grounded, so real. I honestly was kinda touched by the captain’s dialogue. Incredible writing

HAHA that "phased plasma rifle in the 40 watt range" is a reference to Terminator 1 XD

Was just going to watch like, 5 mins to see how it's looking. 1 hour later I'm wondering whether to watch it again. One of the best campaign sequences I've seen in a game, the transitions from different types of gameplay were very natural and it just looks epic in scale. Double thumbs up

Here in 2022 watching this for the first time. I've been playing SC for 3 years and had no idea about this S42 clip and boy this was like watching a movie, so amazing I cant wait for this to release! What they are doing is truly ground breaking and I cant see any other game development compony coming close to what CIG can do for so many years to come if ever. I'm blown away and this is just a old WIP too wow!!!!

[TheAmzngAids]

Nice to see they put scotty in the engine room

[Wrath-rj]

OMG, those faces, animations and the voice acting and it looks beautiful, TOP NOTCH!

[nasstor]

first i was highly skeptical, than i got more curious, bit skeptic again, and than i pledged and joined the fam. No regrets.

[TheSahelanthropusSurfer]

I have to remind myself that I'm watching a video game and not a really cool new sci-fi channel show.

[GrandHeresiarch]

This is even better than I hoped for. Wow.

[SNOWSOS]

I was about to watch a movie before going to bed but I think this will do just fine

[saltygoat]

Blown away by how amazing the facial expressions and voice acting is. Incredible! Well done CIG

[DonBilboism]

Thank you all at CIG. Have a nice holiday and Merry Christmas.

This is what can happen when passionate people get the time and money to work a dream project. The quality of the entire production from the graphics to the acting and writing are an example of what gaming can be. Can't wait to hook up my HOTAS and put on my VR headset and head off into space and explore the verse with the rest of the community.

7:30 Morrow is actually reacting to what the player is looking at, and talking about it. They called it SpoilTech in the commentary. Very small detail but took a lot of work. I hope others can appreciate stuff like this and the time and effort required to realise it.

[badnewsbruner]

You guys are doing a great job, I hope this game lives up to the hype.

"Gamers just aren't interested in linear single player experiences anymore" paraphrased from EA.

BTW, Great job on the voice acting! love the internalized voices for the options as well! very natural and flows well.

[AbbreviatedReviews]

I never imagined watching this over four years ago that four years later, I'd still have no idea when Squadron 42 was going to release.

[HunterKiller]

did that armory guy make terminator reference?

[strifejs]

12:08 this scene got me and I haven't seen the whole video yet. lol, you can see the sadness for not giving time to his own family over this career. the emotions and pause before speaking amazing acting and animation.

This is amazing! Thanks CIG for the crazy dream, your hard work over the years and thanks for not giving up and never saying it's impossible to do. +42
