First one is by Jessica Hyde..

The two examples of Utubers were not to be an Ego fan boy but to highlight other issues that need to be recognised.
1. The first by Jessica Hyde who I assume to be female, demonstrates her ability to multi task while in combat so maybe Ego needs to re-assess gender roles instead of the crass juvenile usage in Rebirth.
2. FlankyMerc ... clearly enjoys the game but in the following vid suffers the loss of the hard won Light Sul named Survivor from unknown and unmentioned circumstances.. the dejection is clearly obvious in his tone....

Another Utuber.... saber15 does one on XL Class Ships around 45 minutes long and highlights the detailed work that was carried out creating these ships....

Thanks for the videos, really enjoyed them.

Jessica one is a bit grindy, very good space awareness regarding the fighters escort, very clinical approach and something that I could see myself doing as I like to tip the odds in my favour.

FlankyMerc is more visceral and with really good improvisation skills. He is really involved in what is going on, as do I. That feeling of losing the prize because third party iteration is gut wrenching, but he roleplayed it like a champ.

Myself I try to make a safe space for the Skunk and then play peek a boo with Capital ships turrets and clear them as I use the safe spaces for regenerating shields and cool weapons.
A por ellos que son pocos y cobardes

Hi,

she used the Nova drones like I want to use them, but I never got to hit my target up to now. These things are so ... clumsy.
