An Architect Reviews the 890J Super Yacht - Star Citizen
Vložit
- čas přidán 29. 08. 2019
- In this much anticipated installment, I employ my skills as a professional Architectural designer to critically examine and critique the newly released Origin 890J Super Yacht. This video is not meant to be negative, but is instead meant to provide positive feedback while viewing the new ship both inside and out. You might also learn a bit about Architecture and Design process along the way!

![An Architect Reviews the Mercury Star Runner [Star Citizen]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/LLTFq8M-Tt8/mqdefault.jpg)
Out of all the things I can do right now, I'm watching a guy reviewing a virtual ship in a video game that I didn't even own, about a luxury ship that, even if I own the game, I probably can't afford buying... And I'm both amused and impressed and attracted by both the ship and the video. I think you just introduced Star Citizen for a kid who's usually into FPS games. Nice job man.
Kriss Vector this comment is exactly me
This is me lol
just you know: star citizen is considered as a fps game.
Of course only a part of it is actual shooting other guys with your pistol but everything is a fps. Also a simulator. Also a racing game. Also a space ship fighting game. Also a plane fighting game. Also a delivery game.... I think you understood my point
Not too hard too play around with the 890 Jump. It was available for free rental during the free fly event that just ended (and should be in future events) and it's the ship of the month for SC subscribers. Some subscribers are unlocking them at the ports so anyone can jump in them and play around. Morphologis doesn't own one either, because if he did it would have came with a snub in the hangar bay (which he could have reviewed as well). With free fly events, sub benefits and rentals, SC isn't super restrictive.
LOL This is me as well... All of a sudden I'm interested in playing Star Citizen - after avoiding it all this time. A real-world architect reviewing a virtual starship in a video game... WOW. It's clear that I have far too much time on my hands! On a serious note though... it's becoming pretty clear that RSI is doing a great job of indirectly influencing digital modelers to become even more attentive to form, function and real-world design considerations for their 3d models. For example, check out the commentary beginning at 17:21. You could almost see a future time where real-world architects / designers are hired by developers like RSI to assist in the actual design of various 3d models like this. Blows my mind...
The sculpture in the atrium is meant to represent the path taken by a ship trying to land in hover mode.
Or the dorky underlings doing tricks around the big boss's ship
OMG I literally laughed out loud.
So right on, now it’s an eye sore.
And hopefully its secured to the deck, because man if there was a sudden stop, that think looks like it would cause some havoc
Good one. Lol.
25 minutes in, we went from Luxury-Class living with brandys and spas with a waterfall and being naked in the future, to talking about shooting at bad guys in the cargo bay next to the main engineering space and diagnosing lanes of fire and decent cover O_o this be the best home tour of my life
Sounds like you're describing 5th element film.
I'm a superyacht captain and it saddens me that I'm probably a good thousand years early to skipper a boat like this.

An easy fix for the elevator doors on the spa deck is to make the glass frosted.
Its the 30th century; they could make them dynamically frosted based on if the spa hallway is occupied or not
thats what i thought too. Or blurred
Paul Peavyhouse we already have that kind of tech
@@oldstickygummybear Exactly
@@PaulPeavyhouse True, but why would you do that? The spa is meant to have half nekkid people in it. So why would you waste resources installing dynamic frosting, when it would be more sensible to just install regular frosted glass?
bruh this game has way more detail than i imagined, i totally understand why its taking so long to be developed. I've never seen this much detail put into a game ever tbh
I just wish they'd focus on core game content so it's not stuck in alpha, its so annoying how they try to get people to buy the expensive game pack with special ships when the game is very playable but very unfinished.
@@squidork4355 Nahh this is not true. They are focusing on the core. But ship designers cant work on those core systems. So why not let them make more shop you know.
though this is a lot of detail, rdr2 has infinitely more details
@@kaonashivibes That's like comparing an apple to an orange tree. You're saying a single ship in a game about space travel and adventures is less detailed than a whole game made by a AAA company. Through the little footage I've seen of star cit I'd have to say that it has more thought and details than what Rockstar did.
@@squidork4355 game is not playable, the server optimization is so bad I get 30 fps at the most if I'm lucky, usually it's 15-20. I have a pretty beefy rig and no game I've played has ran this crappy on it.
All the while he's talking about how beautiful the ship is, I'm over here imagining how insanely fun it would be to board this thing with your pirate squad and wreak havoc.
Could've been a cool FPS map, to be honest.
@@kurokikazenootoko my mind just kept jumping to system shock or prey. Imagine if Star citizen had custem game modes,some kind of alien invasion with dead civvies everywhere on this ship would be sick
@@kurokikazenootoko it is, if you play SC and are in either MicroTech or ArcCorp space, if you see an URGENT contract about a boarding there's an entire FPS contract (mission) on an 890J

My brain: Watch a video about an architect reviewing a spaceship
Me: Why?
My brain: You gotta
I don't blame you, this video is soooo dope. I can't wait to play this game!
More like:
Brain: Hey, watch a video about an architect reviewing a spaceship.
Me: I have no idea what you just said, but it's fantastic.
Imagine real VR (like in Ready Player One, where your whole consciousness is inside the virtual world) being a thing and you're there with ur friends, talking to each other and having a great time. I can't wait for this technology one day become reality.
I’m pretty sure I’ve heard that referred to as full dive vr
Nah ready player one was a little trash cuz you have to move your body in real world as well (with wires holding you and all). The full dive nervergear from sword art online was very realistic , will likely be the first commercial stuff that will come out.
I’m pretty sure people are working on tech to view dreams and I believe this’ll be one of the first big steps towards full dive VR.

I'm an architect myself, this ship really tickles my brain. It's refreshing to see game designers actually "design" the spaces. Also, this ship looks like when Zaha Hadid become an interplanetary corporation and decide to make orbital class ship. Anyway, this is a great video!
That's why i love star citizen :) they dont make a game, they making a life.
@@Chleosl which is Terrible
@@Exel3nce like your brain (:
When you realize your current ship is just the size of its landing gear
LOL my Avenger Titan is probably only the size of the base of the landing gear. Upgrading to a 325A soon, which IMO, the Origin 300 series are the nicest designed Origin ships. The 890 is indeed a mega-yacht but the 300s take all that into such a small space.
@@krozareq Just got the 325a-CL very happy with it.
lol :D
@@krozareq Yeah, one of my ships is a 325A. They apparently completely redesigned the interior for it recently, because now it has a permanent bed, kitchen sink and some kind of champagne dispenser in the back, haha. I like it though for just flying around, but my Aurora LN is a far superior fighter, at least out of the box. Looks like shit compared to the 325A though.
i dont even have a ship :(
So I'm going to try out the premiere feature on youtube so I can watch this with you guys when it goes live. It's a pretty big video, so it's going to take a really long time to upload, process, and get to 4k. See you guys then!
Did you get footage of the more recent ptu update with details added to all the rooms?
That’s a really good point, it makes a fairly big difference in my opinion..
Your 600i review was my gateway into all your other Star Citizen videos. I've shared them with friends, and one of them decided he wanted a 600i afterward. That is until the 890j was released. Looking forward to the new review!
Luckily I'm in europe, so I won't have to wait for it to upload but I can watch it directly tomorrow morning😂
Oh man, so looking forward to this, today! I kinda like having this premiere function so I can see when it is coming.
Funny how the latest patch fixed the LOD issues and some other visual updates. Dunno if your footage was before that patch though, but hopefully the changes don't affect your analysis any
This was so therapeutic wtf, he had my full attention the whole video
That's what I'm saying! I can normally never watch a full 10 minute video on CZcams, but I watched this one all the way through without any thoughts of leaving.
It melts my brain somehow :D
This was the video that actually got me into Star Citizen. A year and a half later, I finally own one of these beautiful behemoths. Thank you, Morphologis. It's been a thrilling ride so far. Hope to see you in the 'verse sometime!
How were you able to make the 33 million to buy it ? I’ve been waiting to get this game for awhile but want to figure out how to get me one of the 890 jumps
@@dovahkiin777s I did a combination of quantanium mining and high-rep bounty missions. Events with large credit payouts like Xenothreat helped get me there as well. In the current patch, trading is viable again for making big money as well if you're inclined to be a space-trucker. Lots of options to get you there.
@@Pr1zzm but my question is once you have it what do you do with it? You need a whole massive crew to make it actually functional.

@@unitedspacepirates9075 It's a video game
@@fashionsuckman4652 this is CZcams
@@RileyBanksWho it is
There are facts in this youtube video comment section thread.
Don't know if this has been mentioned, but there's a mission on Microtech where you have to clear out an 890 Jump from pirates. It pays well and it allows a player to explore the super yacht while capping the pirates. Best part of all, every time you log in and out (or crash :/), it's repeatable.
Pro tip: whenever fighting these Pirate NPCs, use their own guns against them.
As impressed as I am with this ship's design, I'm similarly impressed with the expertise displayed while reviewing it. I'm no architect, not by a long stretch, but the critique was so well explained that following it was effortless, and explaining something that well really shows a masterful understanding of the material.
Im torn, I know CIG should be focusing on software updates and polishing the game before they keep working on these minute details, but damn these ships are some of the best designed in all of sci-fi and I love it so much
It's only a small team that makes the ships. Has no affect on the speed of the rest of the games development.
@@FPSKiwi My thought exactly haha, you can put a few designers together and have them work on the ships while others work on the rest of the game
@@drewmortensondesigning ships is also a pretty unique skill set. The 890 alone likely took years to go from concept to designing the interior layouts to modeling and texturing.

in real life yachts have way more features. Like a casino, swimming pools, fitness rooms, diving equipement, and everything you can want, even garage for cars. This yach is not a yacht, it look like one, but lack too much features.
@@tigerbesteverything but it does have a pool, a bar, a medical bay, hanger for smaller space ships and it travels through space
No mention of the missing oven in the kitchen? For me, that was a big issue as a former chef and baker... many many years ago.
That's true, maybe they have laser eyes? Or it's hiding somewhere, I'll have to look again lol.
Cooking is done using the multitool. Similar mechanic to mining: keep the beam within bounds or you burn/undercook the food. Still not sure about the way the chicken violently detonates into perfect portions that you have to pick up off the floor when it's cooked though...
would one oven be enough?
@@harbl99 no need for that. it will likely be a micromanagement game a bunch of timers running at the same time and you have to sort them out in the right order and add all the right ingredients at the right time, or desaster will happen. just like in a real kitchen. keep that fresh in mind for every possible dish, and your star chef career on a 890 is set.
@@harbl99 This was incredibly difficult for me to explain why I'm laughing so loud at 2:30AM to someone who has never heard of Star Citizen.
I’ve seen the inside of a few mega-yachts and I have to say that the general crew (not the more senior officers) get about as much personal space as a small tent, some of the rooms were so small the beds were stacked one on top of the other diagonally in the room just to fit. I did ask them how they coped and they always said they were kept busy enough not to care, and paid well. Pool tables and free space tended not to feature much...
6:12 Also, no handrail. That would be bad enough in a building but a ship moves around.
The artificial gravity would be working to prevent such issues, but this ship would hardly ever be moving in a fashion that would cause those issues.
@HaloBaller9813 the ship is a cruiser so it'd never be a true danger, and as lucifier said, the artificial gravity will counteract acceleration from ejecting everone. Space vehicles aren't like earth ones at all.
@@Lucifer_Nihilum You never fallen on a street walking or slipped on something?
@@danepher Fair point, however the risk of such things is low enough that the type of person who rides one of these may choose to ignore safety in the face of aesthetics.
Fantastic video. This is the single best Star Citizen video I've ever seen. The attention to detail; showcasing the spaces from different angles; and portraying the use cases of guest vs crew; all made for a wonderful viewing experience. I watched the official Star Citizen video on the 890j first, and then a couple of videos from other channels (ie mostly speculation and quick footage). Yours is in a league all its own, sir. I also enjoyed how your personality came through in a few moments, like when you made Star Trek references. Thank you for making content that is both informative and elegant. Well done!
really, much better than star citizen's own video.
What would go a long way to making this the superyacht of the star citizen world would be to have 3 or 4 different liveries and designs that could be specced when purchasing, so that they're not all identical. Superyachts today are not bought fresh off the assembly line...they are built to order and exceedingly custom. That level of bespoke may not be feasible for a game such as star citizen, however at this calibre of luxury and expense it would be absurd for every single 890 to be identical.
Even better, make a few tiers of designs, progressively more opulent and exponentially more expensive to spec, so that seeing an 890 may be a semi regular occurrence but seeing the the 890 Empire Edition entirely finished in luxury wood paneling, gilding, marble and diamond chandeliers is next to impossible.
I was thinking the same.... an expedition variant of the 890 would be awesome.
they can do it with the 300 series, and i would love to have the same kind of choice for my Jump. But not only different colours but as you said complete liverys. i mean i already spend 1000 bucks on it what is 10 bucks more for a livery then
Thats a very nice Idea :)
They do something similar with the RSI Constellation there are normal models and then a high end one, considering the price of the ship having a few options seems reasonable
Came here to say this.
I can still smell the fresh paint. The china had never been used. The sheets had never been slept in. The 890J was called the Ship of Dreams, and it was. It really was.
Please don't let a space-italian steer the ship!
If I was in this universe I would just chill on a beach planet and raise a family with this ship.
Same except the family part
This is absolutely stunning. Imagine this in VR

I was going to make my review of the 890J this weekend, but screw it, Ill just record myself playing yours and nod my head ever few seconds.
Make sure you get a picture of your Aurora parked on the landing platform of the ship to add credibility

@@hantront lol yeah like an expensive sports car and actually that does make sense but it's cool anyway
There is a good reason you are one of the largest Star Citizen channels and you reinforce the high quality standards with each new video. Thanks for the hard work!
My god this game is the most beautiful and realistic game I’ve honestly ever seen. It essentially achieves graphically what cyberpunk was trying to do.
You should try playing it :)

There are a bunch of them, btw. You should go watch the rest
Making all 890 owners realize all the subtle design flaws. I just got one and the stairs was something I immediately noticed in the atrium... now I’ll never be able to miss the wood odd floor change in the private kitchen lol.
Your architect review series, especially on some of the bigger ships in the game, is among some of the best SC content I’ve ever seen. The sound and cadence of your voice; the careful, considered perspective you bring as a practicing architect; the ability to view spaces through the eyes of those who will interact with them most (e.g., guests, crew, etc.); and the beautiful cinematic shots and remarkable attention to detail make these videos such a enjoyable and relaxing experience. They’re something that I really look forward to seeing each time a major new ship is released.
I think it would be neat if the sculpture in the atrium had the option to swap it out for other designs, possibly including a small tree.
As a yachtie. (yacht crew member) I appreciate the design of this ship. Of coarse we don't know how it would work practically. But it's very thaught out.
The one thing I can cratique of this yacht is some kind of outside viewing platform for guests to use when they are inside a safe atmosphere. An area in the bow that would allow guests access would be nice as well as crew access to the exterior for maintanace and cleaning.
This was incredible to watch! The quality of the video is unmatched, I really enjoyed watching. The 890 jump is so amazing, I cant wait for something like it to be built in the future, hopefully I will be there to see it, because it is unbelievable.
The SpaceX starship will be a massive spacecraft with a big interior, hell, you might even get to travel to mars on it
I really love your architect reviews series. It’s great to show the ships but also hits close to home. Education wise I was supposed to become an architect but I never got a job in that field. I slid into more of a mixed bag in power substation design instead. So it’s really awesome to hear these thoughts on design.
Suggestion: take off the helmet when reviewing ships, so the HUD dissappears
Yeah but the black bars covering it gives it a nice cinematic style.... Oh god I'm turning into the narrator
@@wolfywoowab800 that’s but from the helmet
I worked in a restaurant, and: That is too far to go from the kitchen to the restaurant area. You need a food elevator. Also, you don't want to go through the bar to the restaurant with food. Just imagine somebody spilled something or tripped and fell on the server. Even if the server had the food on a cart, thats a catastrophe waiting to happen.
Also - a suite next to the bar and toilets?! Seriously? Toilets need to have a separate corridor separated from the main corridor. Why? Because of the smell. You can't just let it to the main corridor. And you don't want to see people entering/leaving a toilet while entering the bar. Imagine you are a VIP, just entered the ship, heading to the bar and while you are going through the main corridor, some other guest is leaving a toilet. With the sound of toilet flushing and a bad smell coming from the place. Luxury gone. This is basic stuff. And you need to have separate toilets for the staff. There should be just a one small toilet in the waiters backroom. Otherwise it is completely unnecessary. You never want your waiter to be in some back room doing some stuff. You ALWAYS want to see your waiter and you ALWAYS want him to see you. Especially in those "first class" restaurants. The waiter does not need any room other than a separate toilet(firstly, a toilet for the guests can be dirtier, especially when there is also a bar next to the restaurant area - there will be a lot of drunks who puke or miss the toilet, even among the super-rich, you don't want your waiter to enter this kind of environment and then handle food, secondly, it is a social standard, waiter is below the guest on social ladder at the time he is serving, you don't want him to use the same toilet as the guest uses and the waiter's toilet can be much simpler, more utilitarian, less luxurious, than the guest's toilet) that has to be super-clean. He can use some storage where he has reserve glasses, plates and silverware, but why is there a computer? You should have a computer on or under the bar and work from there, enter your orders for the kitchen there, you can't go to a separate area to enter the order. If that was a case, you wouldn't need the computer at all, you could straight up go to the kitchen and tell them.
Your comment was hard to read (try more spaces between lines) but spot on really. The design of the ship has so many flaws, it would never succeed in a real world.
@@GordonSeal sorry for that, ill try to get better
There most likely wouldn't even be a computer for the waiters, just hand held devices.

This is design philosophy gold! Loving these reviews, please do more! Sincerely, from a 3d artist.
I really appreciate your perspective on the digital world. As a photographer I find this review to be inspiring to say the least. It's a beautifully constructed and narrated piece, and I am sure the game developers would agree. Bravo, keep on this path its a great experience.
Please let me go into cryogenic hibernation until youtube dings me with "An Architect Reviews the Banu Merchantman"
... How likely would it be that alien design would happen to coincide with human tastes, ya think?
@@CyberiusT Pretty likely, in this case, since the Banu are supposedly masters of catering to the tastes of their customers (even alien ones), and have sold human-centric Merchantmen to human buyers. They go out of their way to make others feel comfortable, so they're more likely to do business.
@@Mike-zx7lq Fair point. I guess I was think about the Banu ones for Banu - not humans.
@@Mike-zx7lq Would be wierd tho if "our" banu's are different from theirs. Since then they have to make several interior versions of it, incase of us boarding a fully alien one .. for .. trade.. :p
yes please!
I personally don't think the kitchen is big enough to service so many guests. Yes they have all the time in the universe, I think, but that much space is only enough for two or three cooks at maximum, and the sink is on the other side of the hovering counter. A way to fix that would be to use the space otherwise inaccessible due to the hovering counter and detach it so that it runs parallel to the rest of the counter space, thereby also providing a place to put finished dishes for conveyance onto carts.
Also, the drains in the spa showers look like they would kill my feet. xD
Agreed, i think the crew area is excessive and could have been reduced giving the main galley more area with a central oven bench so cooks can go around it, like Hell's Kitchen perhaps :P
This review is incredible and all your talk of hosting high profile luxury business meetings just made me think of the fun roleplay potential that I hope this ship sees come to fruition.
RSI is the pinnacle of game design change my mind
Incredible video, and an incredible ship
Well done Morph and CIG. That fact an actual architect reviews these vessels is a testament to their design.
And a MASSIVE help for CIG as well
@Casanova Frankenstein I think a lot of people would disagree with you. They don't "not know what they're doing". The mistakes are minor and forgiveable.
You have to keep in mind that taking a look at an in-game space ship from the perspective of an architect was - from my limited knowledge - never done before. Shooter maps aren't taken apart like this and other prominent sci-fi games mostly even lack interior as a whole (Halo, Eve online...). You can't judge them for making mistakes while doing things that no one pulled off before: creating habitable areas as would actual humans, living beings use every day. And even in reality, architects make *big* mistakes that create not only minor discomfort (like this spa lift) but hostile environments. Here in Germany, they still haven't finished the airport in Berlin due to major errors in planning and financing. My opinion is that a video game, filled with living spaces for living humans is *not* easy to pull off without references.
@@timogeerties3487 the reason its taken apart and "investigated"in detail is that millions of ppl forked down hard earned cash in a game they refuse to realize can never be accomplished or delivered as promise...ppl rather go in deep to try save face than admit they fucked up
Casanova Frankenstein I think you actually have a point despite making it sound very harsh. CIG has a history of having their ships be redesigned over an over again which of course burns money and resources. You don’t have to be an interior architect to see the most striking design flaws of e.g. the 600i, perhaps because they are building ships mainly from a gaming point of view and not also a realistic one and the „flaws“ we are talking about here are often of the highest standards. Could a bit more thought go into such ships, considering their price? Definitely. Do they need to hire an actual architect to have a look at their designs? Only if it would actually save ships from having to be redesigned over and over again. A bit more time and love in the design phase may already help even though an additional quality control might be appropriate. After all there are already multiple persons involved into such a process, where process supervisors should realize too striking flaws in design and having read the Jump Point articles about ship creation the communication between what they want and what they get seems sometimes difficult, as these designers appear to work from home and likely work on multiple projects, where they only send and receive feedback every few days. To involve another supervisor might be even more tricky.
This was extremely useful and great learning experience. I work as 3D artist and some critiques that you give in this video is like having a good tutorial about the design. Thanks for doing these, it was the 1st one I saw and now I can't wait to see other videos you made.
34:00 was a close call!
What a very wonderful review. It was fascinating to listen to someone with such a sense of fine detail!
This is really well produced and professionally done. Thank you for providing information and insights in design perspectives. Quite refreshing : )
I'm blown away at the design touches. These guys make games not hotels and yachts. There's a couple minor nitpicks but they are minor. Kudos to the devs. The little details are fantastic. It's the kind of home I wish I had in real life!
And kudos to Morph for doing the research into things like the big lighted wall thing. Great eye, and caught some many things I didn't. Analyzing from a guest and worker's POV - brilliant. A lot of work but I really enjoyed it.
I make games so I see the game design side. You want defendable not impregnable. So weak spots can make for a more fun game. This is really a floating FPS level map.
I don't get the whole digital luxury thing but it's sure pretty. And another milestone! Our first capital class ship! Also a ship that easily carries other ships.
Technical things like so many windows while keeping rendering perfomance good. It's magical. What people said were impossible are slowwwly becoming a reality. There's no other game on this level. It's just ruined so many games for me. ...But that basketball hoop is way too low unless you want children to be able to dunk. Literally unplayable! 😜
'The basketball hoop ruined it for me, literally unplayable 10/10 IGN'
My problem with this ship, as a designer, is that while it's beautiful - it is also very confusing. There are a lot of walkways and rooms, but it's not immediately clear where everything is or which way to take.
This becomes even more appearent when you think about it in terms of efficiency, e.g. space used, human behaviour or a case of emergency.
It's clear that this ship was designed by game designers, and not a real industrial design team who would think about these kind of things. It's more of a "what would look cool" than a "what makes sense first and how can we make that look good".
I wonder how the water pool behaves on a space ship, when the ship fights, rolls over multiple times in space, does the water stay in the pool or floods the interior?
@@qu2324 Yeah, and remember, when your ship gets disabled and loses power, artificial gravity will cease to function. So if you don't have mag boots, you're gonna be in for a rough time.
@@BJJGamer lmfao... i laughed here. But you are right.
@@BJJGamer if I could pay for a crew on ships like this I'd expect them to better handle energy consultant and shit.
Wow! Thank you for the awesome architecture lesson and the guided tour of this beauty! Your architect reviews are truly inspiring one to dive deeper into that matter and are something way more than just great Star Citizen content.
Me: Oh nice! A introductory video to Star Citizen. I've heard it's still a game in early access....wonder what it's like.
Morphologis: Welcome to Introductory of Advanced Interstellar Spaceship Design...
Review the architecture of Night City when Cyberpunk 2077 releases.
no u
well this didnt age well
@@jonas5403 lmaoo
Woo thanks morph I love ur architect reviews, as a tradesmen I have my own set of problems with some ships but architects like your self bring more insight then the basics of designs I know. Well most of the time :P some architets drive me up the walls like wanting a 3m long floating bench
What do you mean you can't do a floating bench that long? You're JOB is to make what I want happen, so make it happen!
AH THERE BACK, NOOOOOOOOOO :P
Typical sign of someone with no understanding of practicality.
Design is a type of art. But in theory it requires some grounding in the realities and limitations of construction.
Doesn't mean any given architect would actually understand or respect that though. XD
@@KuraIthys I mean turn off gravity and I can make it XD
@Casanova Frankenstein most of the time its just weird ways of things to make there place unique which i get, some things are awesome, its just that one bad apple that leaves a sour taste in your mouth.
Your review and the mental presentation of all the work and thought that went into designing this ship is just marvellous!
Man, it's the 3rd time I watch this video, and I probably will again, the magnificence of this ship with your thoughtful analysis and commenting is just the thing I need, keep up this excellent work
7:28 A couple "Authorised Personnel Only" signs would be a simple fix for this issue.
As a luxury guest, I don't want to be told not to go somewhere. Instead, I want to feel in authority that I just know the way, even if it's subconscious cues from the environment. It's the little things that make someone feel "important."
So would it instead be better to have (as he said) a greeter of some sort, or perhaps a “VIP area” sign of some sort next to the correct door?
You dont tell billionaires what to do. You design stuff so they know what to do and do it because they want to.
So.. A significantly larger, more flashy door, perhaps a greeter, and maybe have their entrance be closer to the immediate center of a human field of view when they walk in? Dunno why, but this is interesting to me
I've been looking forward to your opinion ever since it was released and it didn't disappoint. Thank you sharing your considered and enthusiastic points, I hope CIG takes them on board. My own personal gripe is that there isn't a gym, otherwise I'm very impressed and hope the lessons learned from its design filter back to the older Origin ships.
They kinda technically do? Looks like the main hangar is supposed to double as a basketball half-court. Granted any ship you had for passenger ferrying would have to be out of there, but I could see myself having that ship out on escort duties 90% of the time anyway.
What an incredibly well crafted and in depth analysis of the design choices! Stunning Work!
This is the best detailed in-game review I've ever seen 😍
This is insane. *From an Elite Dangerous player*
RSI selling $1,000 virtual ships
everyone: ptttt who would buy that
everyone after watching this video: iight, imma get my wallet.
Jean Giboyeaux Yep
me spending 30 bucks on a way better full game called elite dangerous. with 1st person to probably release before SC comes out.
@@flute136 I find it funny because this whole meme of "Star Citizen is a scam" and "X will be done before Star Citizen comes out... If it ever does" is slowly dying as people start seeing the incredible tech that it took to get this far. I mean, there is seriously no other game out there that pushes things this far. Don't wanna spend $1000 on a ship? Then don't. Spend $50 on an Avenger Titan and get a fantastic ship that can do anything ingame while spending the remaining $10 that you saved from buying a "AAA Game" on some icecream.
It's so weird to see a game that actually keeps looking better as time goes on, instead of aging graphically and gameplay-wise. As for Elite Dangerous being a better game... Right... I've played both and can easily state that the universe feels not only hollow, but incomplete surface-wise. Speaking of incomplete, where are those player-fleet carriers that were supposed to be in for December? Is Space Legs actually going to be an FPS module or a glorified walkathon for the fleet carriers? (Which is the community theory for the delay) meanwhile SC has been built from the ground up with FPS in mind, whether engaging in a firefight on a desert planet while small agile fighters vye for air dominion overhead, or destroyers and their escorts pound each other with torpedoes and barrages of firepower.
"Way better full game" You might like arcadey shooters, that's fine, I do too and honestly Elite D is a good game for what it sets out to do, I enjoyed it for a bit with friends. But what the devs are trying to do here is absolutely insane and is not even comparable to what Elite Dangerous is. Two different games with two different goals.
@@TooLateNate not denying how awesome the game looks. i know the technology is there. by the time the game releases the gpus will be powerful enough to run it, thats even considering the problem isnt the bad optimization.
Im just saying, they can file bankruptcy before release and they dont owe you SHIT. 170 million bucks kickstarter and not released yet? just dont be surprised if something happens. Hopefully when it releases, its possible to earn the 50buck ship ingame too though.
@@TooLateNate That is part of the problem. Creating tech is only half the work to make a game... And if you take almost a decade to finish it, there is a great chance that the tech developped will fall behind what will be made in the time the game is finished.
But that ship look sick, tho'.
This will be like buying the Yacht in GTA, spend forever grinding the money to buy it, then spend every waking moment regretting buying it as it doesn't actually do anything other than look pretty.
i have 3 major assignments due tomorrow and instead of doing them i'm here, listening to an architect talk about a fictional space yacht.
i don't regret my choices
Same
Amazing commentary. You sir are excellent at speaking. You've kept me captivated the entire video.
how much its $$$ cost?
Developer: yes
@Paul Pugh what in real money!
$950 base. You can find the information here --> starcitizen.tools/890_Jump and here's the buy page --> robertsspaceindustries.com/pledge/ships/890-jump/890-Jump
Most players who purchase this are going to be high-end organization leaders who will be using it as a command ship for their fleets and orgs, and using it to conduct business with other orgs and factions.
LazyLime are they not selling this anymore? I don’t see any price on the linked pages.
@@thelordsauron That's because they put it up for sale, but only limited stock. So they'll put it up every few months or so, but only sell like 10 (idk the actual number)
@@thelordsauron Hence the "Quantity limited sales" tag on the tools page.
i watched this video around 11 months ago hoping one day i would get this ship here i am today now a proud owner of my 890j Celestial Symphony
I really enjoyed your detail to the lighting and color temperature. It one of the first things I notice in any space.
Absolutely stellar. I cannot wait for more large ships that tread the line between vehicle and building so that I can see more from you!
imagine boarding this with a party of pirates and having a gun fight in the halls and shit
You dont have to imagine.
@@frankbellend3273 and it all working lol
29:10 I would like to point out, as someone who has spent quite a bit of time in commercial kitchens, that the amount of refrigerator/freezer space shown here is not nearly enough to serve the number of guests this ship can have. You'd want at least both a walk in fridge and freezer that are the size of a garden shed. Maybe more than that if you are serving nothing but 10-course meals.
I love how he reviews it as if he was an actual critic in the star citizen universe. “Another impressive detail that deserves a round of applause”, as you would say.
Wow, impressive work! You saw many details I have missed before. I also fell in love with that ship on first sight. It sooooo much better than the 600i. I just hope they do a serious rework of that ship to get in on the level of the 890j (and the 300i, which is quite nice now, too)
Why would a lower level, cheaper ship be on the same level as the top of the line, most expensive ship? That's like buying a cheap 2 bedroom house and expecting the same interior as a 50 million dollar mansion.
They mentioned in a video last week they would be taking a lot of the lessons learned on the 890 and applying them back to the 600i
@@SuperMontsta the 600i is not cheap lol.
It's still supposed to be luxurious, in the same way the 300i is still luxurious. You pay extra for the size, not just the privalege of it actually being designed properly.

One says masterpiece, one says "unique, innovative design with the finest materials". Where did it ever say that the 600i will be crafted with the finest materials too? These quotes are directly from the RSI website for each ship.
@@SuperMontsta Lol, they're already using a lot of the same materials, and that's not a justification for its design being bad. In the very paragraphs you quoted, the 600i is a luxury ship. It's supposed to be luxurious.
Also, you realise those are basically the in-universe advertisement spiels right?
This was great! I was really interested to hear your take on the 890 jump.
Subbed. Craftsman builder guy here, and I gotta say, the attention to detail here is both mind-blowing and relieving. Too much stuff with too little thought, nowadays. Ill be watching the rest of your videos and taking literal notes and sketches! Those beautiful wall reliefs especially have me looking at my chisels. Also, I've worked with bending wood a couple of times and It isnt anything to shake a stick at- those poolside chairs and deck could be someones point of pride for life! Anyways, I really appreciate the designers taste and efforts, and you for making a video about it! I never would have seen this interior normally, since my poor laptop gets angry at me for running pretty games.
The film "Oblivion", comes to mind when I see these ships.
Star Citizen, here I come...
the internet on my phone cut off at the perfect time (while i was on the train), "Now we talked a bit about emotion, here you'll see some plants" XD (at 4:30 )
"and yes it is obscene, but we have to remember that that's who we are catering to"... yes, the obscene.
The 1/10 of the 1% Corporate Overlords and corrupt political parties.
I said the same thing to myself. I personally do not see the appeal towards living in a large space like the one we see in the video. A cozy apartment is all I really need.
I know this feedback is a bit late, but I just wanted to say thanks for these. You raise good points, share your area of expertise and you keep it brief enough to take in as a whole. Really enjoying this series of yours.
You have great points but my only concern is that u said that the ship should have a “red alert” mode through the lights, but on places such as real life yachts you wouldn’t want to instill fear into your guests and want to make them comfortable even in emergency’s.
5:58 you can see visually his avatars deep disappointment while looking at the flaw
I started watching this video just to see the ship but the way u told me about and with the music on the background and the cinematic shot just at the right time gave me the feeling i was exactly their walking next to u while u were explaining it all to me. I really loved this video and u got my sub and i will share this video with my friends leep making these kind of amazing video's
It would be fascinating to see an actual economy developing in Star Citizen, where lower level players could hire on ships like these! Maybe as a one-time butler or even in steady employment as security officer or helmsman..!
It also makes for a wonderful setting for an Agatha Christie-esque murder mystery. Basically Murder on the 890J Express.
For sure, I think it'd be fun to crew on a huge ship like this. Imagine if they made a cooking mini game like so many mobile games where you have to fill orders for the owner and guests.
You are so good at this. Seriously, I think you have a future in being a Yacht Broker.
Its a literal flying yacht lol, they didn't even try to make it look like a spaceship.
yep, that's kinda immersion breaking... You had so much space to do something unique, but nope, flying yacht it is.
since when do you see an irl yacht as extraordinary as this? If anything its general design sets it apart from other ships in star citizen given the setting, the entire thing is meant to invoke a feeling of specialty not a generalized feeling of discomfort and this is *because* of it's familiarity to our time, being a leap from luxury vehicles seen today
@@daspas2111 Source of inspiration is too obvious. They could have made more observation decks, more elegant exterior design as well, instead, it is an outline of a maritime boat.
@@jackvernian7779 what im trying to say is that, that is essentially the point
@@daspas2111 while it is the point I find it immersion breaking in a way
24:05. Another easy fix is if the glass can tint or polarize in such a situation.
Just a testament to this game's incredible scale, I'm constantly being impressed
This incredible, great job! Really enjoying all your videos on this series, keep it up!
