Coriolis: The Great Dark - Reaction to Official Q&A

[@3Skulls]

What are your thoughts on Coriolis: The Great Dark? And what do you think of this type of video in future?

[@3Skulls]

It's been pointed out on Discord that if this were to be a new edition, it would technically be a 3rd edition, since there is an earlier Järnringen edition that predates Free League (in fact, making fan supplements for it is how FL got started!).

[@jonasfalsen3145]

Thank you for saving me from being utterly pedantic, I was gearing up for a decently large "Uhm, Achtually..."

[@3Skulls]

@@jonasfalsen3145 Haha, was the first comment I had on Discord when I shared it and I was like "d'oh, of course!" Typically I only realised after it was fully recorded, edited, and broadcast.😅

[@michaeledmonds4849]

The non-western lore was also a draw for me with OG Coriolis, and the art and books layout was excellent.

[@AmazingAaxor]

I appreciate your recap/reaction to these things in our hobby. 😊

[@adrealz276]

Exciting news ! If we get the chance to have a solo mode for this one, this would be awesome

[@3Skulls]

I think the odds are good!

[@MagnusSeter]

Cool thing is that The Terror was also an inspiration for Bitter Reach. Seems that Free League is partial to horrible isolation in cold places! :D

[@3Skulls]

Hey Magnus! Very true. Interesting that in The Bitter Reach it's the survival and arctic elements that are the inspiration, whereas in TGD the inspirations are more to do with British expeditions into uncharted territories. I'm a bit disappointed that there will be no horrific elements in TGD, but I can definitely see why they wouldn't want to compete with Alien.

[@ebrim5013]

Yeah, I definitely got some Mutant Year Zero vibes as well. Going out and getting supplies for the Ark and all this. I’m pretty excited to see the play test with the kickstarter for this one.

[@christiansullivan1346]

Great video Matt...thank you!

[@michaeledmonds4849]

Thanks for this recap, saved me an hour of watching the interview :)

[@CavernadoLekkis]

I've never played Coriolis before but I am looking forward for this 2nd edition. I like the idea of a "Forbidden Lands " or "Mutant Year Zero" in space!!!

[@pamphletthebeanwolf5901]

Not sure if you know about this but there's Mutant Year Zero - Ad Astra by Free League, which is MYZ in space, just released.

[@CavernadoLekkis]

@@pamphletthebeanwolf5901 I do. Actually, I have it. But it is not exploration in space.

[@MrDigitsu]

Looking forward to it. I love the setting of the Third Horizon

[@GustafThisner]

I liked it, make more of these.

[@gregbanks5624]

Thanks for the info on the new FL game. Good video. Subscribed. : )

[@3Skulls]

Thanks!

[@ALvIn0H-f6y]

I would call it ’another edition’ rather than a second edition (or more correct: third edition).

[@3Skulls]

@@ALvIn0H-f6y Yep, I made a comment saying this the day I released the video. 😉

[@CJ_esc.artist]

Is there still the option for the players to have smaller ships besides a larger ship?

[@3Skulls]

You get a shuttle which is used to go on away missions and this can be upgraded, yes. But it'll be a very different vibe to The Third Horizon.

[@MrDigitsu]

Sign me up for any playlets or VTT group playing this!

[@raldanash_pnp]

Very nice video, I have prepared a script for the same type of vid. Hope you don't mind me making one as well...

[@3Skulls]

Of course - no need to ask! I don't have a monopoly on this type of content and I know you've done similar videos in the past. I'm also looking to change up the content on my channel a bit more in this direction, so hopefully I won't be stepping on your toes too much...

[@brianbird6353]

excited open to join a game

[@MagiofAsura]

I hope it retains a lot of the first game. Third horizon is extremely hard to find

[@3Skulls]

From the quickstart and the Q&A, it will feel very different to the Third Horizon.

[@Alsemenor]

I am honestly disappointed if the Delves are going to be the main focus of the new Coriolis.

[@SGCrutch]

I do NOT like the player characters not getting a personal ship. I hope Coriolis original remains in print.
