The sculpture in the atrium is meant to represent the path taken by a ship trying to land in hover mode.

Out of all the things I can do right now, I'm watching a guy reviewing a virtual ship in a video game that I didn't even own, about a luxury ship that, even if I own the game, I probably can't afford buying... And I'm both amused and impressed and attracted by both the ship and the video. I think you just introduced Star Citizen for a kid who's usually into FPS games. Nice job man.

25 minutes in, we went from Luxury-Class living with brandys and spas with a waterfall and being naked in the future, to talking about shooting at bad guys in the cargo bay next to the main engineering space and diagnosing lanes of fire and decent cover O_o this be the best home tour of my life

I'm a superyacht captain and it saddens me that I'm probably a good thousand years early to skipper a boat like this.

it's crazy how this is the most professional review of anything ever

An easy fix for the elevator doors on the spa deck is to make the glass frosted.

All the while he's talking about how beautiful the ship is, I'm over here imagining how insanely fun it would be to board this thing with your pirate squad and wreak havoc.

bruh this game has way more detail than i imagined, i totally understand why its taking so long to be developed. I've never seen this much detail put into a game ever tbh

This ship have more work put in then entire player hub in anthem.

When you realize your current ship is just the size of its landing gear

I'm an architect myself, this ship really tickles my brain. It's refreshing to see game designers actually "design" the spaces. Also, this ship looks like when Zaha Hadid become an interplanetary corporation and decide to make orbital class ship. Anyway, this is a great video!

Imagine real VR (like in Ready Player One, where your whole consciousness is inside the virtual world) being a thing and you're there with ur friends, talking to each other and having a great time. I can't wait for this technology one day become reality.

My brain: Watch a video about an architect reviewing a spaceship Me: Why? My brain: You gotta

I can't wait until the verse gets big and grows and EVE like community, and diplomats from clans will meet on yachts like this one.

Imagine these models being used as inspiration schematics for starships in the future

As impressed as I am with this ship's design, I'm similarly impressed with the expertise displayed while reviewing it. I'm no architect, not by a long stretch, but the critique was so well explained that following it was effortless, and explaining something that well really shows a masterful understanding of the material.

The most impressive thing about this ship is that they've gotten it to fly in an atmosphere.

No mention of the missing oven in the kitchen? For me, that was a big issue as a former chef and baker... many many years ago.

This was so therapeutic wtf, he had my full attention the whole video

Don't know if this has been mentioned, but there's a mission on Microtech where you have to clear out an 890 Jump from pirates. It pays well and it allows a player to explore the super yacht while capping the pirates. Best part of all, every time you log in and out (or crash :/), it's repeatable. Pro tip: whenever fighting these Pirate NPCs, use their own guns against them.

Here is a game for you: Try and find a 90 degree right angle in any part of the ships design.

This is absolutely stunning. Imagine this in VR

This was the video that actually got me into Star Citizen. A year and a half later, I finally own one of these beautiful behemoths. Thank you, Morphologis. It's been a thrilling ride so far. Hope to see you in the 'verse sometime!

I think what is most amazing about this game is that halfway through these reviews i forget that he is inside a ship. they just look so fantastic that they feel like concept art for real 7-star hotels

Im torn, I know CIG should be focusing on software updates and polishing the game before they keep working on these minute details, but damn these ships are some of the best designed in all of sci-fi and I love it so much

Why you wanna buy a luxury item which hardly has any function in real life: "Cause it looks spicy" Why you wanna buy a luxury item which hardly has any function in game: "Cause it looks spicy" 10/10 immersion

6:12 Also, no handrail. That would be bad enough in a building but a ship moves around.

I’ve seen the inside of a few mega-yachts and I have to say that the general crew (not the more senior officers) get about as much personal space as a small tent, some of the rooms were so small the beds were stacked one on top of the other diagonally in the room just to fit. I did ask them how they coped and they always said they were kept busy enough not to care, and paid well. Pool tables and free space tended not to feature much...

What would go a long way to making this the superyacht of the star citizen world would be to have 3 or 4 different liveries and designs that could be specced when purchasing, so that they're not all identical. Superyachts today are not bought fresh off the assembly line...they are built to order and exceedingly custom. That level of bespoke may not be feasible for a game such as star citizen, however at this calibre of luxury and expense it would be absurd for every single 890 to be identical. Even better, make a few tiers of designs, progressively more opulent and exponentially more expensive to spec, so that seeing an 890 may be a semi regular occurrence but seeing the the 890 Empire Edition entirely finished in luxury wood paneling, gilding, marble and diamond chandeliers is next to impossible.

I was going to make my review of the 890J this weekend, but screw it, Ill just record myself playing yours and nod my head ever few seconds.

i wanna see this fully staffed with tons of people i imagine someone did a whole rp series with this fully crewed and stuff

If I was in this universe I would just chill on a beach planet and raise a family with this ship.

Suggestion: take off the helmet when reviewing ships, so the HUD dissappears

Man I keep watching these over and over again, the style and way everything is done just makes me want more and more

This wasn't a review, it was a documentary, so good, amazing work mate.

I can still smell the fresh paint. The china had never been used. The sheets had never been slept in. The 890J was called the Ship of Dreams, and it was. It really was.

So I'm going to try out the premiere feature on youtube so I can watch this with you guys when it goes live. It's a pretty big video, so it's going to take a really long time to upload, process, and get to 4k. See you guys then!

There is a good reason you are one of the largest Star Citizen channels and you reinforce the high quality standards with each new video. Thanks for the hard work!

5:00 Looking at that waiting area I'm struck by how cheap and uncomfortable the seats look, like plastic school chairs.

My god this game is the most beautiful and realistic game I’ve honestly ever seen. It essentially achieves graphically what cyberpunk was trying to do.

A seldom case where a youtube recommendation blows me away. This is right up my alley, going to check out some more!

Fantastic video. This is the single best Star Citizen video I've ever seen. The attention to detail; showcasing the spaces from different angles; and portraying the use cases of guest vs crew; all made for a wonderful viewing experience. I watched the official Star Citizen video on the 890j first, and then a couple of videos from other channels (ie mostly speculation and quick footage). Yours is in a league all its own, sir. I also enjoyed how your personality came through in a few moments, like when you made Star Trek references. Thank you for making content that is both informative and elegant. Well done!

Making all 890 owners realize all the subtle design flaws. I just got one and the stairs was something I immediately noticed in the atrium... now I’ll never be able to miss the wood odd floor change in the private kitchen lol.

This is design philosophy gold! Loving these reviews, please do more! Sincerely, from a 3d artist.

I think it would be neat if the sculpture in the atrium had the option to swap it out for other designs, possibly including a small tree.

Please let me go into cryogenic hibernation until youtube dings me with "An Architect Reviews the Banu Merchantman"

RSI is the pinnacle of game design change my mind

This was incredible to watch! The quality of the video is unmatched, I really enjoyed watching. The 890 jump is so amazing, I cant wait for something like it to be built in the future, hopefully I will be there to see it, because it is unbelievable.

I just can't get over how beautiful this looks in 4k

As a yachtie. (yacht crew member) I appreciate the design of this ship. Of coarse we don't know how it would work practically. But it's very thaught out. The one thing I can cratique of this yacht is some kind of outside viewing platform for guests to use when they are inside a safe atmosphere. An area in the bow that would allow guests access would be nice as well as crew access to the exterior for maintanace and cleaning.

This is really well produced and professionally done. Thank you for providing information and insights in design perspectives. Quite refreshing : )

Your architect review series, especially on some of the bigger ships in the game, is among some of the best SC content I’ve ever seen. The sound and cadence of your voice; the careful, considered perspective you bring as a practicing architect; the ability to view spaces through the eyes of those who will interact with them most (e.g., guests, crew, etc.); and the beautiful cinematic shots and remarkable attention to detail make these videos such a enjoyable and relaxing experience. They’re something that I really look forward to seeing each time a major new ship is released.

I worked in a restaurant, and: That is too far to go from the kitchen to the restaurant area. You need a food elevator. Also, you don't want to go through the bar to the restaurant with food. Just imagine somebody spilled something or tripped and fell on the server. Even if the server had the food on a cart, thats a catastrophe waiting to happen. Also - a suite next to the bar and toilets?! Seriously? Toilets need to have a separate corridor separated from the main corridor. Why? Because of the smell. You can't just let it to the main corridor. And you don't want to see people entering/leaving a toilet while entering the bar. Imagine you are a VIP, just entered the ship, heading to the bar and while you are going through the main corridor, some other guest is leaving a toilet. With the sound of toilet flushing and a bad smell coming from the place. Luxury gone. This is basic stuff. And you need to have separate toilets for the staff. There should be just a one small toilet in the waiters backroom. Otherwise it is completely unnecessary. You never want your waiter to be in some back room doing some stuff. You ALWAYS want to see your waiter and you ALWAYS want him to see you. Especially in those "first class" restaurants. The waiter does not need any room other than a separate toilet(firstly, a toilet for the guests can be dirtier, especially when there is also a bar next to the restaurant area - there will be a lot of drunks who puke or miss the toilet, even among the super-rich, you don't want your waiter to enter this kind of environment and then handle food, secondly, it is a social standard, waiter is below the guest on social ladder at the time he is serving, you don't want him to use the same toilet as the guest uses and the waiter's toilet can be much simpler, more utilitarian, less luxurious, than the guest's toilet) that has to be super-clean. He can use some storage where he has reserve glasses, plates and silverware, but why is there a computer? You should have a computer on or under the bar and work from there, enter your orders for the kitchen there, you can't go to a separate area to enter the order. If that was a case, you wouldn't need the computer at all, you could straight up go to the kitchen and tell them.

Incredible video, and an incredible ship Well done Morph and CIG. That fact an actual architect reviews these vessels is a testament to their design.

This review is incredible and all your talk of hosting high profile luxury business meetings just made me think of the fun roleplay potential that I hope this ship sees come to fruition.

Wow! Thank you for the awesome architecture lesson and the guided tour of this beauty! Your architect reviews are truly inspiring one to dive deeper into that matter and are something way more than just great Star Citizen content.

I personally don't think the kitchen is big enough to service so many guests. Yes they have all the time in the universe, I think, but that much space is only enough for two or three cooks at maximum, and the sink is on the other side of the hovering counter. A way to fix that would be to use the space otherwise inaccessible due to the hovering counter and detach it so that it runs parallel to the rest of the counter space, thereby also providing a place to put finished dishes for conveyance onto carts. Also, the drains in the spa showers look like they would kill my feet. xD

Review the architecture of Night City when Cyberpunk 2077 releases.

I really love your architect reviews series. It’s great to show the ships but also hits close to home. Education wise I was supposed to become an architect but I never got a job in that field. I slid into more of a mixed bag in power substation design instead. So it’s really awesome to hear these thoughts on design.

This incredible, great job! Really enjoying all your videos on this series, keep it up!

This is insane. *From an Elite Dangerous player*

This was extremely useful and great learning experience. I work as 3D artist and some critiques that you give in this video is like having a good tutorial about the design. Thanks for doing these, it was the 1st one I saw and now I can't wait to see other videos you made.

Your review and the mental presentation of all the work and thought that went into designing this ship is just marvellous!

I really appreciate your perspective on the digital world. As a photographer I find this review to be inspiring to say the least. It's a beautifully constructed and narrated piece, and I am sure the game developers would agree. Bravo, keep on this path its a great experience.

Amazing commentary. You sir are excellent at speaking. You've kept me captivated the entire video.

how much its $$$ cost? Developer: yes

What an incredibly well crafted and in depth analysis of the design choices! Stunning Work!

This is the best detailed in-game review I've ever seen 😍

7:28 A couple "Authorised Personnel Only" signs would be a simple fix for this issue.

Woo thanks morph I love ur architect reviews, as a tradesmen I have my own set of problems with some ships but architects like your self bring more insight then the basics of designs I know. Well most of the time :P some architets drive me up the walls like wanting a 3m long floating bench

34:00 was a close call! What a very wonderful review. It was fascinating to listen to someone with such a sense of fine detail!

Man, it's the 3rd time I watch this video, and I probably will again, the magnificence of this ship with your thoughtful analysis and commenting is just the thing I need, keep up this excellent work

RSI selling $1,000 virtual ships everyone: ptttt who would buy that everyone after watching this video: iight, imma get my wallet.

My problem with this ship, as a designer, is that while it's beautiful - it is also very confusing. There are a lot of walkways and rooms, but it's not immediately clear where everything is or which way to take. This becomes even more appearent when you think about it in terms of efficiency, e.g. space used, human behaviour or a case of emergency. It's clear that this ship was designed by game designers, and not a real industrial design team who would think about these kind of things. It's more of a "what would look cool" than a "what makes sense first and how can we make that look good".

i have 3 major assignments due tomorrow and instead of doing them i'm here, listening to an architect talk about a fictional space yacht. i don't regret my choices

Having really good time watching your videos! Those are not only calm and relaxing but also are interesting and maybe even educational Great job making your content, thank you!

Absolutely stellar. I cannot wait for more large ships that tread the line between vehicle and building so that I can see more from you!

5:58 you can see visually his avatars deep disappointment while looking at the flaw

Subbed. Craftsman builder guy here, and I gotta say, the attention to detail here is both mind-blowing and relieving. Too much stuff with too little thought, nowadays. Ill be watching the rest of your videos and taking literal notes and sketches! Those beautiful wall reliefs especially have me looking at my chisels. Also, I've worked with bending wood a couple of times and It isnt anything to shake a stick at- those poolside chairs and deck could be someones point of pride for life! Anyways, I really appreciate the designers taste and efforts, and you for making a video about it! I never would have seen this interior normally, since my poor laptop gets angry at me for running pretty games.

I really enjoy your review videos they are very calm and satisfying with the why you film them and give your critic. Because of you i have started being interested in star citizen. Keep it up A well deserved sub :)

imagine boarding this with a party of pirates and having a gun fight in the halls and shit

This was great! I was really interested to hear your take on the 890 jump.

I really enjoyed your detail to the lighting and color temperature. It one of the first things I notice in any space.

i watched this video around 11 months ago hoping one day i would get this ship here i am today now a proud owner of my 890j Celestial Symphony

I've been looking forward to your opinion ever since it was released and it didn't disappoint. Thank you sharing your considered and enthusiastic points, I hope CIG takes them on board. My own personal gripe is that there isn't a gym, otherwise I'm very impressed and hope the lessons learned from its design filter back to the older Origin ships.

Imagine have a whole family in the ship like its their home

This was a phenomenal & to the highest standard of video quality production 👌. You should absolutely have more followers but I'll definitely be looking into more of you're videos.

I love how he reviews it as if he was an actual critic in the star citizen universe. “Another impressive detail that deserves a round of applause”, as you would say.

the internet on my phone cut off at the perfect time (while i was on the train), "Now we talked a bit about emotion, here you'll see some plants" XD (at 4:30 )

"and yes it is obscene, but we have to remember that that's who we are catering to"... yes, the obscene.

Me: Oh nice! A introductory video to Star Citizen. I've heard it's still a game in early access....wonder what it's like. Morphologis: Welcome to Introductory of Advanced Interstellar Spaceship Design...

One of my favorite videos of all time. Love to see more

I'm blown away at the design touches. These guys make games not hotels and yachts. There's a couple minor nitpicks but they are minor. Kudos to the devs. The little details are fantastic. It's the kind of home I wish I had in real life! And kudos to Morph for doing the research into things like the big lighted wall thing. Great eye, and caught some many things I didn't. Analyzing from a guest and worker's POV - brilliant. A lot of work but I really enjoyed it. I make games so I see the game design side. You want defendable not impregnable. So weak spots can make for a more fun game. This is really a floating FPS level map. I don't get the whole digital luxury thing but it's sure pretty. And another milestone! Our first capital class ship! Also a ship that easily carries other ships. Technical things like so many windows while keeping rendering perfomance good. It's magical. What people said were impossible are slowwwly becoming a reality. There's no other game on this level. It's just ruined so many games for me. ...But that basketball hoop is way too low unless you want children to be able to dunk. Literally unplayable! 😜

24:05. Another easy fix is if the glass can tint or polarize in such a situation.

You are so good at this. Seriously, I think you have a future in being a Yacht Broker.

The film "Oblivion", comes to mind when I see these ships. Star Citizen, here I come...

I'm both saddened and in awe that I needed to be reminded multiple times that this is a game.

The Captains privet Dinning room would be a great place to recreate the TNG Poker Nights.

This ship looks dreamy, epic video.

This is the first I've ever seen or heard of this Star Citizen. Truly magnificent looking
