The video discusses the introduction of creatures in Star Citizen and why developer Cloud Imperium Games is putting effort into bringing them to life. The first creatures mentioned are the Terra Cows, herbivores that are ideal for farming on the planet Terra. They produce milk and may potentially provide meat for consumption. These animals thrive in wide spaces and temperate weather, making them likely to appear on Microtech. Another creature mentioned is the Boreal Stalker, also known as the space Yeti, which currently seems unlikely to be implemented until server meshing is in place. Crusader features whales, which can be observed on well watching tours and may provide collectible resources. Hurston will have the Xops or Giops, scavengers that float around and are targets for hunting missions. Their flesh is valued for its flavor.
The Pyro system is expected to introduce the Pyro Crabs, fierce animals that serve as apex predators, though they were not shown in the recent CitizenCon event. They are anticipated to be challenging to defeat and will likely yield valuable loot. The video also briefly mentions the Valakar or Lir Sandworm, a creature that was initially faked but is anticipated by the community. It is now expected that Cloud Imperium Games will include the sand worm due to its popularity among players. Lastly, the developer is actively working on smaller creatures like rodents, snakes, and bugs to enhance the overall immersion of the game.
