In the video, hosts Dou Oison and RootedAdmin discuss Origin Jumpworks Day during the Intergalactic Aerospace Expo (IAE) for the game Star Citizen. They express a general disinterest in luxury ships, which Origin is known for, stating that these ships, designed to transport wealthy clients across the universe, do not fit into their personal fleets. They acknowledge that while the ships look visually appealing, their functionality and appeal do not resonate with them, as they prefer more practical and combat-oriented vessels.
The hosts dive into the specifics of notable Origin ships, starting with the 890 Jump, a large luxury vessel priced at $950 but currently sold out. They mention that the ship can be rented for free during the event but criticize the artificial rarity created by the game’s developers, Cloud Imperium Games (CIG). They also discuss the 600i Explorer and 600i Torpedo models, highlighting their similarities and minor differences in cargo capacity and loadouts, suggesting that players might as well opt for the cheaper option.
As the video progresses, the hosts explore the interior of the 600i, noting the luxurious features such as a spacious bedroom with a large view and amenities that cater to comfort rather than practicality. They encounter some technical issues while trying to explore the ship, emphasizing the need for a rework on certain features. While they appreciate the aesthetic design, they remain critical of the functionality and practicality of these larger ships, preferring smaller and more agile craft.
The discussion shifts to the 300 series, including the 300i and its variants like the 335r racer. The hosts appreciate the nimble nature of the 300 series but point out the shortcomings in terms of combat capabilities and the cumbersome animations required to enter and exit the ships. They suggest that while the 300 series offers a luxurious feel, there are better starter ships available for players who prioritize functionality over aesthetics.
Towards the end of the video, the hosts wrap up their thoughts on Origin Jumpworks, highlighting the overall lack of appeal for luxury ships in their eyes. They mention the upcoming Anvil Day and express excitement for potential new ships and features, including the mysterious Paladin ship. The video concludes with a call to action for viewers to engage in the comments, sharing their thoughts on Origin ships, and a light-hearted farewell as they prepare for the next day of the expo.
