Here we briefly explore the lore and history of the Infinity the game in the context of the Code One Infinity Universe. How did we get here? What drove these hyperpower nations into space? What's with the PanO Yu Jing beef?
If you're a new player coming in fresh with CodeOne or are interested in Infinity but want to know more about the history and lore then this video is ideal for you. Starting at the very beginning we look at how humanity's journey to space created a new world order where power shifts on Earth.
From the fall of North America, Russia and Europe to the rise of Pan O, Yu Jing and reemergence of the UN under the form of the more powerful O12. In the background of all this, we explore the history of the Shasvastii. The reasons behind their fearsome reputation and obsession to thrive and survive in any environment.
This overview of the Infinity lore is a great first step into the varied and rich tapestry of stories that make up the Human Sphere. While only scratching the surface you can discover the resources available for you to get a deeper understanding of the history and lore of the Infinity game.

Not a newbie, but thought I'd drop a comment - I really enjoyed this! I've been meaning to get properly into the fluff for a while, and a series like this is perfect for me to continue being lazy about it, haha. You have a great speaking voice that's effortless to listen to, as well. Please keep up this series throughout N4!

@the_infinitygamer
@the_infinitygamer 3 года назад
To be honest I read their story and felt so sorry for them! I didn't like them much because I just thought they were the enemy but their back story is actually pretty epic and makes sense with their in-game abilities. I'm very excited to dive more into Haqq, Ariadna (especially now), Aleph and all the other factions.

@k.v.delchev6022 3 года назад
The RPG books for Infinity have tons of setting information and I really recommend them for getting more details about the current status quo and parts of the history of the Human Sphere. There's also a book for the CA giving a lot more details about them, including some things about how they came to be. With #infinityN4 they will push the setting 5 years forward, and add more focus on space battles and the attacks of the CA on Concilium (we'll see how that happens), so I kinda expect to see more fluff about the CA, O-12, Aleph and maybe the Nomads, who are the default space-faring faction, after all. I just hope they take more of a Shasvasti terrorism and piracy direction and less of a "Paradiso fell, now let's fight for the next planet".

Haven't gotten into Infinity just yet per se, but looking into it and hoping to get into it properly in the coming weeks. I'd love to know more about Aleph and the Evolved Intelligence as characters. AIs have the potential to be very interesting characters (SHODAN is one of my favorite videogame villains) It seems like the obvious story thread is to use them as foils and frame at least part of the Human-Combined conflict as a personal face off between the two super powered AIs
@the_infinitygamer
@the_infinitygamer 2 года назад
I’m really interested to see CB explore this area as well. The idea that the Human Sphere is guided (controlled) by an all-powerful AI is interesting enough. The fact their enemy is also controlled by some sort of AI is very enticing. What if the two are actually one and the same and the conflicts are part of a wider plan?
