I watch Drew's video first, out of all the Starfield videos out right now, simply because I know everyone else is talking about the game. Drew however draws us right into the heart of the game, the spirit of it, making us part of the world. He doesn't talk mechanics or what you can do, he just inspires us, like all the other Great Explorers.
Oh, Mr. Drew, like most people, I have been looking forward to this game coming out. However, unlike most people who wish to play the game quickly, I am grateful for you and your "telling" of the lore that both preceded the game and that which has become a part of the game. While it doesn't help with the actual game play, it does help with the understanding of the game itself. For most of your viewers, I am hoping, this is just as important to the game play as the game itself. Thank you, Sir, for detailing this "telling" in your usual insightful way. I know I will understand what is happening (and what has happened) when I become the next 'explorer'.
Wow, that opening brought back some memories. 😢 We were watching the Challenger launch in class - they usually had the shuttle launches playing for us. My teacher, who was watching with us, stood there for a few seconds trying to grasp what was going on, looking kind of like a fish with his mouth opening and closing. Then, he trotted over to the TV (as fast as a science teacher could trot) and turned it off. I don't remember what he said, I just remember the look of shock on his face. It's pretty well etched in my memory. RIP Challenger crew ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤❤❤
The Deadraologist has finally escaped the the labyrinth of Apocrypha and finds himself in a strange land filled with stars. Riding Sunbirds across the Aether. "The Moonshadow? The Colored Rooms? Or somewhere else entirely?"
Heck, hadn’t seen this video coming. But thank you so very much for this, Drew, will watch and listen to it whole before I launch the game tomorrow morning. Thank you for joining us in this trip into the Starfield!
I preordered Battlefield V back in the day and after that I vowed I’d never buy a game until at least a week has passed since release. I really hope the game turns out good. Another great video drew.
I cant wait for star field, just like you i have my own philosophy and wont buy the game until October but so far I've heard that the game runs great and without game breaking bugs.
I'm curious of either of you bought it and what you think of it. I can't objectively call it a good game, it has so many parts that seem like downgrades compared to previous titles and yet I keep being addicted to it it. I can't even explain why I enjoy it so much.
Awesome stuff Drew! I love your narration of the lore and i am so glad you have a new content to explore yourself. Can wait for your next videos to come. Keep up the amazing work ❤
Drew I'm new here, havent really taken in much BGS lore videos lately until the release of Starfield. I know you and Fudgemuppet went different ways because the type of videos you wanted to work on for TES were different from theirs but I'd love to see a collab about starfield at some point. Best of luck sir missed your calm ass serious video voice.
I have very very purposely not watched any HeRe Is StArFiElD NeWs. I wanted my experience to be virginal. But, I knew that I had to watch this lore video. And I am not disappointed. Awesome stuff as always. Thanks Drew.
I'm really not trying to play Stanfield but I can't tell you how much I appreciate Drew doing a spoiler free video. I spoiled Attack on titans anime for myself by watching TH-cam Manga and I regret it. I avoid spoilers like the plague now lol
Other people do a straight-forward documentary-style lore video, Drew gives us the same info in a friggin' narrative like we're around a campfire with a history professor. Great stuff man. This helped so much with character creation last night, already very content with my RP choices.
I initially struggled to see the resemblance in the portraits, but I think you're right about Gagarin. And after a closer look, that British gent does look more like Cook than Nelson.
@@DrewmoraYTYeah, a google picture search shows a portrait of Gagarin that doesn't *quite* look like the one in game (he's smiling in the real one) but the uniform is nearly identical. Cook also seems more appropriate, while Nelson did some exploration, Cook was a cartographer - seems more topical. Anyways, great work as always, looking forward to getting stuck in myself.
I literally cannot hear Magellan's name without hearing the Animaniacs song about him... Great video Drew! I need you to have a real life history Channel now lol
I may never purchase this game. Not for a lack of love for sci fi; I just can't enjoy most games these days. Very thankful for your excellent content and commentary.
Your narrative skills are amazing. It’s always an absolute pleasure to hear your wonderfully written scripts. Honestly, I’d pay to listen to your videos.
One thing I'm curious about in the lore is what they say will happen to the various human religions and their holy lands and how they evolved, like Islam and Mecca for example.
As always, a great video and the lore/story driven perspective is the one that always gets me invested - enough to actually get me interested in the game (and I am certainly more of an ES fan). The lodge is particularly interesting, since it seems to stick to the more sophisticated image of the past without following the typical futurist sci-fi design and I greatly enjoyed the talk on real life explorers, Shackleton’s mention was particularly a fascinating one, as I am currently finishing the last volume of his “Antarctica” set (“South” to be precise).
Thank you for the wonderful video, Drew! Your creativity and linguistic ability shine through! I appreciate the refresher course on some of our history. You are amazing! 💙
This game looks nifty... such a shame that Todd Howard insulted so many people by barring a release date for ES6 until this game. I stand with everyone who refuses to by this game or any content on it until Bethesda learns to not insult the paying customer.
@@darthxerox15 starfield is a passion project??? its quite the opposite lazy random generated shit thats all about it. also containing Multiversum Garbage in its worst form wow
I spoiled tye ending fir myself looking fir lore. I do hope dlc & creation kit cansje it much more interesting & fun. I heard nsfw mods got removed but hope get readded along with others everyone deserves to enjoy the game as ttey wish.
Why did drew leave Fudgemuppet? I like both channels (and prefer Drewmora because I’m more into the religion of TES than anything else) but I am curious and couldn’t find it out when he left.
Oooo boy I have some THOUGHTS. Firstly, deliberately choosing to not get involved in politics is **itself** a political act. Secondly, and this ties in with the first point, I find it interesting and extremely telling that the aesthetic/brand image of Constellation are from the Golden Age of Exploration and the Victorian period, both periods of time when exploration was an extension of political regimes in the name of imperialism and capitalism. Having studied a bit about the Golden Age of Exploration and imperialism, the outcomes for the natives of the countries that were in essence, invaded, were **grim** to put it mildly. Of course there were some explorers who were in it for good reasons and used their knowledge and new platform given to them because of their discoveries to uplift the communities they worked with, like the famous Dr. Livingston Drew mentions in the video. But for every Dr. Livingston, there are exponentially more Christopher Columbuses. The type of person that sees exploration as a fast track to gaining wealth, power, prestige, and dominance, and who will do whatever it takes to achieve those things, including murder, rape, cultural genocide.
I’m just not interested in this game or sci-fi. I’m very happy it’s over with now though as they are now starting TEs 6. My biggest concern is if I’m going to upgrade my pc to run tes 6 when it comes or be forced into Xbox.
@@badluck5647 no they recently said tes 6 has started actual production now and from what I understand Starfield doesn’t have any planned dlc right now prob want to see if it flops first.
No disrespect to Drew, his content is great as always. The concept behind starfield is just feels so mundane, compared to ES or even Fallout. Where are the aliens? The strangeness? Why does the pitch just seem to be "Interstellar", the game? Maybe it's just me, dunno. Just feels kinda boring.
yes, there is a whole thing for a mysterous tech and powers that have been in the releases. but they have kept it pretty quiet so learning about that story seems like part of the experiance.
@@AerynWalk He did make three videos and deletes two and kept only this one, sad too because it seems those videos really killed the momentum going for his channel somehow. Now it seems he's taking a creative break.
Im 54,....been around since PONG. (SOME SIMILARITES there, but I digress) Todd Howard seems to thi k that "PLAYABILITY" means selling the fuck out of a box full of hope. I'd drag this out with an expansive rant but honestly how else can I end this with ANYTHING other than "ASSUMING" that YET AGAIN the MODDING COMMUNITY is strapped with the sheer burden of making another BETHESDA GAME "GOOD" again.....

I’m heartbroken as a PlayStation user I won’t be playing this game! I guess it’s more about money than fans unfortunately! I’m sorry but if your covering this game I’m going to unsubscribe!

Never thought I would hear Drew say "Ronald Reagan" in his serious video voice. made me chuckle.
Also what I thought when he said "Vasco". That's my father's and my grandfather's name.
Well, he could have sang Cleveland Rocks or Moon Over Parma instead...

You and Fudge dropping basically at the same time 😂 love you guys.
I got a feeling an embargo lifted.
@@michaelrobb9542it is
I realized Drew is no longer with FM so now I’m here. Different vibe.
I love that Starfield gives us the best explanation to date of the origin of Pelinal Whitestrake... Star-Made Knight from the future...

Yup, I CANNOT play this game u less I watch this, I loaded in and felt disoriented with all the info flying at me, I needed to organize it.
At 19:43 that's Gagarin. I thought it was rather obvious but you have to look at a picture of him when he's not smiling to see it.
YES thank you. I thought that was Yuri Gagarin as well.
The solviet mystery portrait at 20:00 is Yuri Gagarin
I thought "Starfield" was the tears in the veil of Oblivion left by the Magna Ge as they retreated to Aetherius during the creation of Nirn?
Wow, that opening brought back some memories. 😢

Amazing video, Drew. Perfect introduction to the lore. Can’t wait to see your future content
Amazing! Can't wait for this game. Drew on fire as usual.
The Deadraologist has finally escaped the the labyrinth of Apocrypha and finds himself in a strange land filled with stars. Riding Sunbirds across the Aether.
"The Moonshadow? The Colored Rooms? Or somewhere else entirely?"
I got it -- a Dragonbreak! Easy. Wrap it up!
Heck, hadn’t seen this video coming.
But thank you so very much for this, Drew, will watch and listen to it whole before I launch the game tomorrow morning.
Thank you for joining us in this trip into the Starfield!
This was great Drew. Excellent way to get people excited without spoiling things
I preordered Battlefield V back in the day and after that I vowed I’d never buy a game until at least a week has passed since release. I really hope the game turns out good.

Fantastic composition! Keep up the great work!
Awesome stuff Drew! I love your narration of the lore and i am so glad you have a new content to explore yourself. Can wait for your next videos to come. Keep up the amazing work ❤
Is this the very first Starfield lore video? Literally making history Drew! Amazing 😁
How did I not see this video when it first came out? Drewmora and starfield let's go
Wow thank you drew for this amazing guide. Keep up the good work -Uncle Leo
Loved it! Looking forward to a lot more content.
Thank you for adding the poem. It was very moving. Crying!?! I'm not crying. YOU'RE crying! :)

Beautiful… just beautiful. Man I love your videos so much. Can’t wait to play starfield.
Thanks drew amazing video
I'm really not trying to play Stanfield but I can't tell you how much I appreciate Drew doing a spoiler free video. I spoiled Attack on titans anime for myself by watching TH-cam Manga and I regret it. I avoid spoilers like the plague now lol
That was amazing, man. I don’t know how you do it.

This helped so much with character creation last night, already very content with my RP choices.
Would not be mad if you were to get into irl lore and history, ur story telling is 🔥🔥🔥
It seems obvious, but isn't the portrait of Yuri Gagarin? The first man in space?
The 18th century gentleman could be Captain John Cook?
Possibly Valentina Tereshkova. If it is that’s a super cool easter egg.
I initially struggled to see the resemblance in the portraits, but I think you're right about Gagarin. And after a closer look, that British gent does look more like Cook than Nelson.
@KetchupOrCatsup01 That was my first thought too! Though her equipment seems a bit too high tech in the portrait
@@DrewmoraYTYeah, a google picture search shows a portrait of Gagarin that doesn't *quite* look like the one in game (he's smiling in the real one) but the uniform is nearly identical.

Wow. A gift
I literally cannot hear Magellan's name without hearing the Animaniacs song about him... Great video Drew! I need you to have a real life history Channel now lol
I like this style
I’ll always be a fantasy girl but Fallout surprised me and I’m sure I’ll like this one too. Just excited to play a brand new Bethesda game 😊
Yes the portrait is definitely Vladimir Komarov. He's wearing the same uniform as his same portrait in real life.
War, war never changes
Not the Seinfeld clip! 😂 What a fantastic video!
the great Drew of Atmora has finally sailed... to the stars.
The Russian Cosmonaut in the portrait is Yuri Gagarin dude. First human in space.
I may never purchase this game. Not for a lack of love for sci fi; I just can't enjoy most games these days. Very thankful for your excellent content and commentary.
Getting Alien invasions, Alien fleets, more things to explore as a DLC would be great
@DrewmoraYT seems you have bots again
19:45 maybe it's Yuri Gagarin first man to journey into space
I thought Barrett was supposed to have a gun for a hand.
And way more ripped
I mean, he did kill a captain and bring down an entire ship with one bullet. 😂
Also the British captain at 20:24 is James Cook. Come on man I figured a good British commonwealth boy like yourself would know that one lol 😏
This makes me happy!
Your narrative skills are amazing. It’s always an absolute pleasure to hear your wonderfully written scripts. Honestly, I’d pay to listen to your videos.
One thing I'm curious about in the lore is what they say will happen to the various human religions and their holy lands and how they evolved, like Islam and Mecca for example.
Last time I was this early to a drewmora vid it was the dawn era
I'm not sure that discrepancy with Barrett is a mistake. I never knew that. That's super sue imo
Lordy George. Starfield be dropping everywhere! Thanks Drew! 💖 🙏
The Russian portrait in the lodge is Yuri Gagarin bro
The russian portrait is almost certainly meant to be Yuri Gagarin, the first human to leave this planet.
I keep hearing voices from skyrim but I can't pinpoint who I think I've heard belathor and someone else

Why did drew leave Fudgemuppet? I like both channels (and prefer Drewmora because I’m more into the religion of TES than anything else) but I am curious and couldn’t find it out when he left.
Basically, he wanted to start doing other content besides Elder Scrolls. He's still friends with them as far as I know.
Could you imagine if Constellation turned out to be something like the Super Adventure Club from South Park?
So... No more SF content?
Tremendous
I will never play Starfield, but I appreciate your videos and takes Drew.
Any possibility for no Elder Scrolls vids in the future? Maybe Fallout?
