Why worldbuilders MUST watch Scavengers Reign

[@mooncousin2913]

Always cool to see people genuinely passionate about this show. I might be biased given i've always loved wildlife and environmental science but Scavenger's Reign struck a chord in me that no other piece of media, short of maybe the game "In Other Waters" by Jump Over The Age, has before. A genuinely awe inspiring, harsh and dispassionate yet beautiful alien world that feels like something truly out of this world rather than simply mirroring the life found on earth. Believable yet unknowable at the same time. Alive. It's an ethos I want to strive for with my own writing and TTRPG storytelling. Great video mate!

Thank you! I loved this series. The expansive worldbuilding was so satisfying and rich but I loved/hated (in a good way) the characters and how the world really enhanced their stories. I like your summary ‘believable yet unknowable’, perfectly sums it up. If you get a chance you might like our discord server, we talk about a lot of worldbuilding topics at depth (and also goof off a lot) discord.gg/vx2PxnEpjt

It does have some cool setting ideas & presentations, unfortunately the chars, dialogue, plot, & pacing aren't great which makes the show a bit of a slog. Finished it but sped it up to 1.5x speed after the first 2 eps, deprioritized the plot & dialogue, focused on the setting & visual setpieces.

I totally get it, but I don’t mind a ponderous pace. For me it was a feature not a bug.
