» ABOUT THE GAME - X4: Foundations is a space simulation where players can explore a vast universe, trade goods, build and manage space stations, and engage in space combat. The game offers player agency, offering an expansive sandbox where players can choose their path, whether as a trader, builder, explorer, or combat pilot. It is a very complex game so the series will be a mix of tutorial and Let's Play making the game accessible for new players.

» ABOUT THE MINISERIES - X4 Foundations is a slow burn game meaning it takes quite a long time to do anything of consequence. I'm playing the Young Gun scenario with no DLCs or mods. The goal of this series is to showcase the game as much as I can in the allotted time. As a Tutorial/Let's Play hybrid I'll be focusing on showing as many facets of the game rather than solely focusing on a single goal. I'll also be interspersing game tutorials when the tutorial becomes relevant to the series as well.

Please do not offer unsolicited suggestions, tips, advice or spoilers, all of the content of this series was recorded from a marathon stream so no feedback could realistically be incorporated anyway.

    Seems the YouTube chapters are bugged out ( at least for me at the writing of this comment ), but the timecodes are at the bottom of the description.
  • @cuddlebuff
    Yes! Wonderful to see X4. Recent update has elevated the game immensely.
  • @Fallub
    Always great to see X4 content. Such a great game. Thank you.
  • @langley_6
    Thanks for playing this! Was just thinking about getting it but wanted to see some gameplay first.
  • @manug2508
    Thanks for spreading some X4 content! I love the series since X2 - the Threat! It's one of those gems where the devs still care about the community and improved their game with every new Version and DLC, while at the same time keeping it modable to some extend.
  • X3 was my favorite game when it first came out. I've been thinking about it a lot lately so excited to see some x4
  • I love this game. I kinda use it as a space truck simulator where I just have one freighter and just buy and sell goods. Not the smartest way to play though since the sandbox kind of relies on the player a bit and without their influence the Xenon or Khaak will at some point overrun multiple systems.

    Glad to see you playing this. I’ve had it since release but never put much time in it past getting the player station because building was impenetrable to me. Looking forward to your wisdom!
  • @bonden79
    Exactly what I was looking for. Thanks Rhadamant! :)
  • @Dj3ndo
    Just bought the complete set and saw your video recommended. Subbed!
  • @Reruro
    Oh hey perfect timing, this is exactly what I'm looking for!
  • @MrDathnic
    Outstanding!! I’m excited for this series! Let’s gooo!!!
  • @gtbkts
    Thanks for the awesome content!
  • @bulletstop100
    The x series are awesome!! Each iteration seems to bring more and more to each game!!
  • @FreeLee123
    Nice timing, I just picked up the game and finished the first few tutorials. A good number of the guides are quite old.
  • @Paltse
    Hehe, when Timelines came out, downloaded it within five seconds. Haven't played it yet because of Silent Hunter 3 Grey Wolves Expansion itch that came two days before midsummer that will carry me over to the end of June, but soon after will be uncorking X4 for this year as Canada celebrates my bd at the beginning of July. However nice to see no DLC gameplay. Been playing the same Young Gun save for couple of years now.
  • @draeath
    I hope your stream viewers enjoy the game, I'd love to see more content from you in this title!

    Technically Argon people still descend from Earth, there's just been enough time and diplomatic stuff between the Argon and Terrans that the two groups no longer really want anything to do with eachother.
