I don't want to merely see Tevarin in the verse. I want to play as one too. I hope at least one of them are part of the Squadron 42 cast.

Unfortunately for this comment, CIG have stated that there will be no playable alien races. ​@@Hylanvahr

@@KranVideo In a game still in Alpha, anything and everything remains subject to change at any given time for any reason.

Did the Imperator succeed in that, or am I thinking about a failed attempt to get a member of another race to be the Ambassador to that race for the UEE? Too much lore to keep in order. I love it! 😁👍

I hope to be able to have Tevarin characters.... sooner than later.

We have ENOUGH trouble dealing with differing Human Cultures and Peoples, dealing with these Alien Species (bearing in mind the BANU themselves are NOT one species, but many) would be 'interesting' but probably disasterous.

I kind of talked about that in the different factions video I did a while back but I could do one again.

@@TheAstroHistorian Yes, I have most of your videos saved in my reference folder! Thanks again, Sir!

I think CIG have that covered.

Sometime between tomorrow and the heat death of the universe.

@TheAstroHistorian yea, that might be true. They said that's the same day they give us the release date of this game.

In SC: Nobody knows. One of the problems is, that the next few StarSystems are all not alien systems so if they keep it lore-accurate as I understand it there shouldn't be too many alien encounters. Of course, there is also the tech-aspect where I personally hope that they wait at least until the AI Systems are performant enough that your human AI (and creatures) are already working well before they start working on aliens SQ42 however: When it launches. - We of course know that we will fight Vanduul in that game and therefore "interact" with them. - We know that in 2017 the vertical slice mission is centred around human smugglers who smuggle humans into the Banu Slave-Market so there are some connections to Banu in that story, though we obviously don't know how far this connection is explored in the story. Could very well be that we stop at the human part of that story - At the latest since the "I Held the Line" Trailer we however also know that there will be some connections to Xi'an in that game. We don't know if we will ever interact with them but we do know that one of the storylines (missions) is centred around a Xi'an Hauler. We also know that in this case we will at least go far enough as to explore that ship (so alien ships from Xi'an are included) since we also see that in "I Held the Line"

It's important to remember that Humanity nearly lost to the Tevarin in both wars. It's not like humanity entirely smoked the Tevarin, both times humanity was on the verge of defeat when a decisive battle managed to turn the tide. Since then the Tevarin are a shell of their former selves those Tevarin that have beat the Vanduul have only ever faced small clans. Humanity can and has beat the Vanduul in one on one engagements. The issue is the Vanduul don't have a central command, they are decentralized and scattered. Their culture is based on conflict and war, so if a survivor of a clan escapes they bring more Vanduul back. So raids turn into pitched battles. It's only very recently that Humanity has had the proper intelligence to know how to counter the Vanduul, something that the Tevarin have likely done in their own engagements with the Vanduul, which is total annihilation of the attacking clan. If you wipe out a clan to the individual member then they can't go back and tell the other clans that a good fight can be had in this system. TL;DR Tevarin kill every single combatant which makes them good at keeping Vanduul off their lawn, something Humanity has just learned to do.

@@TheAstroHistorian Great reply, thank you. Love your vids!

Not in game yet

I have during xenothreat and the vandull swarm.

Why?

What a bullshit is that. You're kwekking bullshit, man All Alien stuff, they belong to the verse. When flight ready you should try them out, it's just a part of the universe and that's how it roles to the real backers who "are testing and reporting issues and bugs". And if you can't handle a Alien vessel yourself, that doesn't mean others can't handle them too when that's a reason to remove them all in your opinion. To n00bs who think that Star Citizen is a game, they just don't understand the goal of Star Citizen. Star Citizen is a Universe, like Chris says at the beginning! Backers who are there since the beginning like myself, we all understand the way the cookie crumbles.
