This is like hearing about the Dark Age of Technology from Warhammer 40k. Eventually the jump gates will collapse, the Combined will reach Terra, Aleph will turn evil, and everyone will be bombed back to the stone age.
The Yu Jing having a weird blending of monarchism and Leninism seems to be a trend in a lot of different sci-fi universes even though it is contradictory, but I guess at the same time they want to blend Asian themes. Really cool video and probably the best lore intro video on RU-vid right now.
Literally yesterday I was looking if you had a general overview of the setting to try to convince a friend of learning about Infinity. Now my prays have been awnsered. Keep with the good work. I know it's not a super popular IP but you're videos are super well done and sure helping expand the knowledge of this little gem.
This is so far, the single best setting explainer I've found for the RPG. You do seriously good work my friend! Please keep it up! I'm trying to drum up as much interest in the game as I can as there's no other game I'd rather be GMing than Infinity (especially when the Hyper-Corp Source Book drops and I get my Advanced Psy-War Rules!) No other channel, in my experience, has been able to bring people in the way you have! Thank you so much for putting so much of your time, effort and our shared love for this incredible game, and universe. Believe me, this is getting shared everywhere I can find anyone remotely interested when I propose playing "A thoroughly contemporary projection of a Cyberpunk future...with the scale of a Space Opera". I'll get a regular game going eventually, and when I do, I'll let you know who triggers a Code: Infinity first!
Oh, and if you want to design your own personal PMC, G-5 splinter faction, Submondo Organization, Rogue-AI (or is it?) or a personal favourite Recreation, they will have a welcome home in my Human Sphere! Just let me know what you'd like to see! I owe you that much of a tribute at the very least!
Love your stuff man!! --> I share every video to our meta etc Would like to see a more in-depth one about the Nomads Sectorials and the Nomad/Aleph Cold War.
This is really a good video for introducing someone to the Infinity setting, both for the miniature game or the rpg. Within its 23 minutes you've managed to convey all the important informations, well organized and with some good artwork. If I'm going to run a campaign with Infinity RPG or if I'll need to introduce a friend to the miniature game, this will be the video I'll show them 👍🏻.
I found JoyToy's action figures of this IP knowing nothing about it. I still know very little about it, but right now I see it as a marriage between Cyberpunk and general sci-fi. Looks and sounds neat!!
It’s very unique. It’s a lot of cyberpunk and a little halo and a little Star Trek. It’s a little Eclipse Phase / Altered Carbon. Idk it’s kind of it’s own thing.
Awesome work, I am sure this video will see a lot of action over the coming months and years as new players are sent, or seek out, information on this excellent game.
Just found out about this franchise today after seeing some of the minis at a local game store while buying a tyrranid model and even though I’ve only seen this one video about it I think that Infinity might already be one of my favorite Science Fiction settings!
Wow! What a wealth of info in this! Must have taken forever to research and write this script. Amazing work! Really appreciate it. Very helpful as a brand new player, haven’t gotten my starter box yet, to get a base understanding of the world. Look forward to watching more of your content
One suggestion would be for deep dives on very specific events or characters. I don’t think i have seen any videos dedicated to named characters at all, and i think it helps get people more directly attached to the story. That or vivid descriptions of battles.
...I've been pronouncing "Antipodes" as "Anti-pOdes" this whole time.. It never occurred to me to throw a Greek pronunciation on the word. How embarrassing
It's been 2000+ years, both pronunciations are acceptable! Though usually it rhymes with "toad" when singular and "bees" when plural, changing it up isn't really incorrect.
This video is perfect for explaining the Infinity background. When a new roleplayer asks about the setting of Infinity, I will send them here. Good work, WarLore.
Thanks, this is a great overview. I'm planning on running an Infinity RPG later this year and this is going to be a must watch before character creation.
Thank you for your content. Just recently learned about and got into infinity. Your vibe and vids are awesome. Looking forward to whatever you got coming out.
