The Drake Cutter [Star Citizen]

foreign [Music] I think this is the most immersive ship in all of Star Citizen [Music] and if you listen you can hear why this ship is an orchestra of metal hydraulics and motors and it looks like a camper van in space I love this thing this is the Drake cutter and let's be real clear on this this is not an a grade ship it's not a purebred and there's no shot at the cup you're not just a passenger you're driving the literal short bus here and I couldn't possibly care less because it oozes style and atmosphere it's spot welded sheet metal over a Winnebago strapped to an engine shitty design shitty weapons shitty cargo capacity and absolutely perfect this is Peak Drake the knowledge that at any given moment you can and will likely die for no particular reason other than sudden catastrophic failure is not only the Drake Motto but kind of the perfect encapsulation of Star Citizen what makes this even better is I know I'm not alone the cutter despite all its shortcomings has a devoted cult following these people think this is a legitimate Contender for best starting ship and I agree with them and I don't really have a good reason I don't know what to tell you I just think they're neat and I'm gonna be straight with you this isn't gonna work if I just lean into what it is and isn't so instead we're gonna throw it up against something I consider to be the actual best startership [Music] this is the ship that needs no introduction it is the best startership so what we need to do is see how this Stacks up to this [Music] [Music] and this should come as a surprise to absolutely nobody the cutter is about as aerodynamic as a brick moving through Jello it's a shipping great with engines rather large engines you'd think that these would give a bit more of a jump start right off the line either way of course it lost the cutter looks like this and the Titan looks like this what are we even doing here I'm making the next test initially the idea was to test both ships against some low-level bounties but if we're speaking plainly that's not much of a test at the end of the day the cutter has at best two size two guns and the Titan has more so instead I've decided we're doing this in about 30 seconds we're going to set off a massive EMP to knock out the power on the ships and let them drop to the planet below whoever doesn't explode wins wait what [Music] offline [Music] everything [Music] huh there is something deeply wrong with the universe where this ship has more cargo capacity than this one look at it what is the point of looking like a cargo van if it holds less than the sports car the Titan holds eight SCU of cargo and the cutter holds four SCU of cargo how what kind of God would allow this it doesn't make any sense why would you do this why would you design it this way see this right here this kind of makes it worth it in all seriousness the cutter has an absolutely massive gas tank for what it is on a strictly endurance run for things like one-off hand boxes legitimately better off going with the cutter [Music] deliveries in a fairly larger space where there's not a lot of places to stop for gas the cutter would be something you want to keep in mind if you're looking to buy in then it's hard to argue with a price tag you can enjoy sightseeing the Stanton star system in a slack jawed stupor just as well in a cutter as you can in the Titan and it is significantly cheaper to do so and while the cutter doesn't live up to the Titan in terms of capability or cargo or speed or weapons it does live up to the cost not many things can compete with a lighter wallet [Music] this is the goat the benchmark it's useful and good and everything it should be the ship I'm going to judge everything else against a Rembrandt or more accurately a Shelby [Music] that's all a nice way of saying it's a masterpiece but this isn't that this is dogs playing poker a VW bus with the built-in pop-up camper shell it's not meant to compete it's about doing your own thing [Music] thank you so much for watching hit the like button for the algorithm show some love for Wren and backspace in the comments check out the patreon if you'd like I just put out a small review of Starfield or you just want to support the channel I genuinely hope you have a good day and I will see you next time foreign [Music]
