How Does SPORE Space Stage Hold Up TODAY??

[@Tytar]

That sad scene from the film TYTAR WARS toward the end of this video gets me every time. 😭 Thank you everyone for a wonderful 1ST SEASON OF TYTAR, and THANK YOU TO A WONDERFUL COMPLETION OF THE 5 PART SPORE SERIES!!! What do you want to see next?

[@la912]

Personally I would like to see you try a Starting with zero money challengue on the Sims 2

[@Tytar]

@@la912 Not a bad idea! Maybe I can have that be an upcoming upload or my first Live show Challenge I do for the channel! If tomorrow's test livestream goes well, Ill be starting a thursday regular livestream with live challenges and live punishments 😂

[@la912]

@@Tytar Haha, that will be fun

[@HelSeher]

With how much the scope of the space stage fascinated you and your affinity for exploration I think you should try out No Man's Sky.

[@Tytar]

Ive heard about that game! Space exploration fascinates me in real life. I get invigorated at the thought of exploring endlessly. What type of game is it? Storybased? Multiplayer? Both?

[@person4579]

By the way the galactic center is reachable, and you get a super cool 'ending' when you reach it but you can still keep playing (you get a super good reward for it too)

[@Tytar]

What! No way?! That's awesome!! It must be super hard to do because It was insanely difficult to do while I was playing it!

[@roboticintelligenceunit1a652]

No just fly to the centre Or blow up a few planets to ally with the space-nazi’s

[@newend2116]

Definitely not super good haha sure its a good item but the fact it has limited uses is :/

[@iansmith3016]

The Grox Empire is the largest in in this game and controls the center of the galaxy. Depending on your decisions throughout the series, you can ally or eliminate them, and your decision will effect your relationships with other empires. This game is one of the greatest builders ever made, with something for everyone from build masters to role play fans, to achievement junkies, and speed runners, and you can play at your own pace without it causing any setbacks. You can even have multiple playthroughs going on simultaneously on the same account. It set the stage for so many other games (pun intended) to build from with its massively customizeable character creator and its randomizations/pre-built options. It's only fault is that it is outdated. If someone could take this game (dev kit and all) and modernize its graphics a bit, work out some glitches, and reopen sporepedia. I would download it in a heartbeat.

[@mysryuza]

The Staff of Life is neat, but has only 42 uses, which was a let down for me

[@TheThousandthSon999]

As someone who's played this game since I was a kid, it was so much fun to watch you slowly comprehend the insane and magnificent scale of space stage. Now I've got to watch the whole series!

[@Tytar]

I loved reading your comment! Truly! I'm so happy you want to watch the whole series now! People really enjoyed it. My favorite stages were probably 1, 2, and 5, in no particular order. I think most people agree with that too! Creature stage was a really fun video as well! I hope you enjoy the series! And I look forward to any additional comments you may leave!

[@GIRGHGH]

It's cool to see someone look upon the possibilities with curiosity as opposed to fear. Many unfortunately see the immense potential of the stage as a brick wall.

[@Tytar]

That goes to show you just how little I studied this game beforehand, I suppose! Thats really unfortunate that people get overwhelmed by it. Maybe it's because in real life Im a huge fan of space, to the point where I watch documentaries on it for fun. But the possibility of exploring and conquering a galaxy seemed like such a neat concept and they did a decent job at it tbh.

[@GIRGHGH]

@@Tytar I agree. For a lot of people I believe it's a turn off because once you enter that stage it becomes more sandboxy and there aren't obvious linear goals, and there's more than the usual 3 playstyles so perhaps it's too divergent to them.

[@fkutw4tt3rtub3]

​@@GIRGHGHno, it's just endless boring grind with no reward

[@Vin_Venture896]

Not sure if anyone else has explained but 16:44 looks like a proto-star. Basically, that’s the beginning of a star forming. Clouds of matter slowly collect and build into a core, and as that core gets bigger, the gravity becomes more intense, pulling even more matter in. Then an accretion disk forms (the ring of particles around the star) and it keeps on sucking in matter until it stabilises.

[@Tytar]

Oh I see. I still had no idea what it was! I wonder if I had come back if it turned into another system I could colonize!

[@Wyrnikh]

A few bits of info The space stage is actually just from inside the ship. Landing on the surface and interacting with the other inhabitants is the “Galactic Adventures” expansion pack, and should have been its own video. That rare galactic formation was probably a neutron star. THE WHOLE GALAXY IS PLAYABLE! That ring around your ship is just the limit for what you can interact with at any given moment.

[@Wyrnikh]

And the second rare galactic formation was, indeed, a wormhole. You need an upgrade to your ship to travel through it.

[@marslandare]

This series was was awesome! Thanks for covering Spore! I’m very happy that you actually made a good looking creature and played the intended way for once! Most other youtubers always seem to create something silly or inappropriate. Good luck forwards! :]

[@Tytar]

Thank you!! The series was a lot of work, but totally worth it and a ton of fun! I wanted to make a creature that was unique and interesting and play the way the game was intended! I'm very happy you enjoyed, and thank you for your comment! Comments like these mean a lot!

[@marslandare]

@@Tytar That’s awesome, thank you! :]

[@ashlight6107]

I like how you thought the Seti range was the playable area. But yeah the entire Galaxy is playable which blew my mind as a kid. Oh I'd also check out Elysian Eclipse. It's planned to be Spore's spiritual successor. It's not out yet but the devs are working hard.

[@Tytar]

I will definitely check it out! I'm sad Spore doesn't have a sequel so I'll definitely have to check it out! When I saw how big Spore Space stage was I was actually blown away. I mean you saw it in the video haha It's pretty insane

[@colincmx5583]

6:48 you can actually explore every star in the galaxy. It’s been a while since I played but I think the dotted circle is the furthest you can travel in one jump with a fully upgraded ship? Or furthest distance you can pick up alien signals I forgot

[@Tytar]

That is really cool. Sorry for the late reply to you, but thank you for sharing. That is so neat.

[@gnobblarthehouseneger2646]

The entire galaxy is playable. You'll be able to unlock better drives. There is even Earth and the Solar system hidden in the galaxy.

[@Tytar]

That is so cool. Thanks for sharing. :) Have you ever taken over earth? I wonder what it looks like in spore

[@gnobblarthehouseneger2646]

@@Tytar It looks like Earth with the continents and is named Earth, but it is empty, it's a mystery what happened to humanity. I don't want to spoil. I you reach the core of the galaxy there is something, which could be related to humanity, but that's pretty much all theories. I think Earth is just an easteregg for the madmen like me who explored the entire Spore galaxy lol.

[@UltraZombie115]

Im gonna miss this series

[@Tytar]

Aww that means a lot. I worked very hard on it and wanted to deliver an awesome experience for you guys. It means a lot that you said that.

[@ender1546]

Man, your editing skills are crazy good. Have you been working in the cinema industry before? 😁 Anyways, welcome to the Spore 2 waiting room :) I hope you enjoyed this journey because I did for sure.

[@Tytar]

I really appreciate the compliment. 😌 Great question! My story is interesting, at least I think so. Ive had zero work in the cinema industry. Im entirely self-taught. My dream as a kid was to become a film director. I did a different channel for fun through all of jr. high-high school but never tried to grow the channel. I gave up on the dream figuring no one cared about what I was doing. I worked a job for almost 10 years when I looked back at my life and wondered why I never tried to make something happen with video. So, I started Tytar. A Gaming Entertainment channel that I want to scale into more than just gaming coverage. That day where I do stuff other than gaming is quite far away, like the 500,000-1m subscriber zone, but thats the goal. Playing Spore for the first time was an absolute joy, and if I had played this as a kid, I wonder how my life wouldve been different, truly. Im very happy this series was enjoyable. I tried to do it justice for new and old players alike! This last stage easily took the most work!

[@ender1546]

@@Tytar A million? that's the big goal if I could ever imagine one. Knowing KZbin algorithm mechanics it could be quite the challenge, but nonetheless I wish you luck with it :) 👍

[@Snewbew]

Theres so much to this game The grox spaceships outclass even a max everything player spaceship but they are defeatable. You can also ally with them but that causes the whole galaxy to instantly hate you. Also the universe is shared between savefiles so you can find the planets from your other save files in the game Btw those adventure missions are part of the dlc galactic adventures and while you only played maxis made adventures most of the adventures are player made you can make your own adventures and play other people's adventures too

[@Tytar]

All of this is so cool. I don't think I knew you could ally the grox. I think that's awesome. I can't believe you can run into your other savefiles too, that must take FOREVER to find your other files with how big the game is. I love that you can make adventures for others to play. How exactly do the adventure creations work? Is it like an editor with coding or is it using in-game menu systems to make it?

[@Snewbew]

@@Tytar theres no coding, it's like a planet editor where you can put building and characters in it and set their behaviours and such in a little menu, it's not too complex but there's a lot of hidden depth to it and some fun tricks you can use

[@Tytar]

@Snewbew oh thats awesome! I need to check that out!

[@PulledPurk]

There's a bunch of stars, there's only one Sun

[@Romanscii]

Spore is one of the best games ever made. It's so different and unique to the point where no game has been able to achieve the same greatness and feeling and I love it. It will forever hold a special place in my heart for making my childhood incredible.

[@vnshngpnt]

Hahaha great video man, as always. Cool flashback to previous stages as well. Spore is such a weird, but unique game. A real gem from back in the day. Spore 2 with modern graphics and detailed gameplay would be a blast! Looking forward to next game series 😉

[@Tytar]

Thank you my friend. 😎 I wanted to capture this playthrough and do it in a fun/finale-esque way, and thanks for letting me spotlight your comment!! It's pretty surprising that theres no Spore 2, tbh

[@YAgamer1995]

The way the game tried to force you to do that boss fights when looking for those crystals and you just said "fuck this shit im out" and dodge and weaved with your head flailing around your elongated neck has me dying 😂😂😂😂😂

[@Tytar]

🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@MattbyNature]

I used to play Spore a lot and I did not know about the first person missions

[@Tytar]

I had no idea going into this either! The space stage really has a lot of stuff in it.

[@rawmilk905]

There is a great exploit where if you enter cheats while beamed down to a planet in an adventure with the game paused, you will not get the Joker badge for cheating.

[@literatemax]

14:40 the early bird gets the worm but the second mouse gets the cheese

[@homiej8163]

If you react this way learning about how large the space stage in spore is. Wait till you play No Man’s Sky. Same system, except the planets are larger, there’s 1000x more of them, and there are hundreds of galaxies to explore instead of the single galaxy in spore.

[@Tytar]

Someone else mentioned the same thing! I really might need to give that game a look. I refused to play it at release because so many people were hating on it for being unfinished. I hear nothing but good things about the game now though

[@jamm8152]

rlly wish i could figure out how to get past the loading screens in this game. such a great game. too bad ea abandoned it anyways, nice vid!

[@Tytar]

Thank you! Try buying the game on gog.com ! That's where I got mine and it worked. (I'm not sponsored by them, but worth a shot!)

[@tacwedie]

Hey Tytar. I'd like to correct your nomenclature in 3:33. The word Sun is only used to refer to our star, which is called The Sun. And the Solar System is only used to refer to The Sun and the planets that there are (Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune). The correct nomenclature to refer to othr stars and other systems that aren't ours is "Stars" and "Stellar System". Loved your video btw. EDIT: The "range" is not a limit to where you can to. The entire galaxy is explorable. If I am not mistaken, there are more than hundreds than thousands of systems. EDIT 2: 16:39 What you just saw here is a Protoplanetary Disk. Basically that is a star being born. That is also something present in real life and the model present in SPORE is actually quite realistic. Some people say that it actually turns into a star after some time and has a green flash when it happens but it lacks evidence and documentation.

[@Tytar]

Thank you for your corrections and comment tac! I appreciate you watching the video too! I like to be technically accurate too, being a space enthusiast myself, so I sincerely appreciate you teaching me that! I actually learned from your comment, so thank you! 😅 additionally, thanks for clarifying that cool bit about the forming star thing and not having documentation of it. Thats super interesting!

[@MegaJesseman]

Imagine being an intergalactic conqueror and you just accidentally drop one of your hostages to their doom and then set the other one down gently to colonize the planet.

[@Jon-qf6qg]

This game gets even crazier with mods. Bigger planets, more creature parts, less restrictive creation tools, expanded mechanics. By now plenty of people have mentioned that you can explore the entire galaxy in the base game, but there's a mod that lets you travel outside of the galaxy and explore other ones too!

[@Tytar]

I would love to try this stage out with mods. I'm sure it fixes a lot of the shortcomings but also adds cool things people wish were in the stage

[@Jon-qf6qg]

ABDUCTED! haha. Don't worry, all is forgiven! Another great video, one of the best parts about your vids are that they make me wanna play these games again. This was a great thing to come home to today - had to get my wisdom teeth removed and I'd say that was moderately less fun than getting flung into the stratosphere by a mysterious alien spacecraft. (don't worry I'm fine!)

[@Tytar]

I am so sad to hear about your wisdom teeth removal! Ive been there before and it was NOT fun!

Smiling probably isnt fun right now!! 😂 Thanks as always for your support and I wish you a speedy recovery!!

[@sr.bombardeado8903]

Kinda late to the party, 1 year late, but better late then never! (100th comment too) A thing that unfortunately did not occur was Archetypes! In Spore, if you go a specific route with your cards (cards are like: social creatures (green cards), aggresive tribesman(red cards) and omnivore cells (blue cards)) you can unlock philosophies for space stage, i noted that unfortunately midway thru your campaign you lost progress (civilization didn't have the starting powers), if you hadn't tho, instead of being a Shaman (which unlocks the ticket back to your home planet) you'd have been a Zealot (which unlocks the ability to convert a planet instantly), this is a very good mechanic in Spore as it allows for even more replayability! I don't know if you'll ever touch this game again, but if you do, experiment with ingame paths. (extra stuff) each archetype has a philosophy (10 archetypes, 9 have special abilities) (8 philosophies), and philosophies can affect relations between nations, for example, a nation built on war and genocide will be way less friendly then a nation built off on trading and selling (and that affects ingame relations!). i yap too much

[@UndergrundensBrolere]

Hey, Im a huge fan of Spore since it was released. But I ALWAYS had this problem.. the game crashes during Space age.. Looks like crashing is very common for this game, and since they abandoned Spore a long time ago, do you have any idea of a patch made by the community to fix that? The game just crash and Im looking at my Desktop screen, no error messages, no nothing. Happens since the release, and I hade like 2 other computers and a notebook. The problem is the game..

I'm not sure about a patch! I had no crashing issues. I bought my copy from gog.com. Maybe you could try there?

[@la912]

@@Tytar Yess, I did read about that. There were many interesting features removed from the final game sadly. Like the Water stage after the Cell stage, or the City stage which happens between the Tribal and Civ stages. The later was going to be like a medieval era, where you have more buildings and technology than in the Tribal stage, but you haven't discovered motorized vehicles yet.
