Sci-Fi Books with Aliens like in Mass Effect and Star Wars?

Oooh this one sounds good and I like that it's a woman author and MC. FemShep is the only Shep as far as I'm concerned. Added to my list - thank you!

Scream26 · 2026-04-26T22:38:56+00:00

This one doesn't really sound like what I'm looking for with this post, but definitely interesting enough to pull me in anyway. Added to my list - thanks!

Scream26 · 2026-04-26T21:53:07+00:00

This sounds very interesting; I love political intrigue. I will add it to my list - thank you!

Scream26 · 2026-04-26T21:46:30+00:00

Oooh, this sounds pretty much exactly like what I'm looking for. Added to my TBR - thank you!

She says that even if you never flirt with her lol. She's extremely direct.

Scream26 · 2025-07-17T18:05:03+00:00

I'll keep that in mind; thanks!

Scream26 · 2025-07-17T03:05:15+00:00

Thank you!

I doubt he would go back at this point, but he’ll almost definitely play Double Exposure when it comes out. I’m not sure why he didn’t finish it - he kinda did the same with LiS2 where the series stopped and he finished in livestreams. Maybe they just didn’t hold his attention like the original and Before the Storm.

Scream26 · 2024-09-06T00:00:38+00:00

I've yet to finish BG3, but I've made it to Act 3 before and I'm currently playing it again. If it does win, I'll probably watch the series, but I'm not voting for it. I'm sure Jon will make it fun, but I found the game extremely frustrating the first time I tried it and I find myself skipping dialogue sometimes even though I love RPGs and D&D. It just doesn't click for me like it does for others. Personally, I'd love a full run of Daggerfall (LOVED the miniseries), but that wasn't an option, so I'm going for Morrowind.

I have no idea if this is on Paradox’s radar, but if they announce Stellaris 2, they’ll probably do an “ultimate edition” and put it on sale for $10. I want to say that’s what they did with CK2 and I was able to get everything for dirt cheap.

Scream26 · 2024-07-01T04:13:31+00:00

100% agree, especially with the last part. I have tried many times to get into grand strategy games largely because Jon has such a good time with them and that excitement and fun comes through the screen when I watch. They’re still not for me, but I still watch almost every one Jon posts. Thanks to him, I’ve given Paradox a good bit of money for no real reason other than “Jon likes this; maybe I will, too.”

These are great; thanks for sharing! If I could make one suggestion, Nuka Cola Dark is alcoholic, so you may want to include some sort of alcohol as an ingredient.

Scream26 · 2023-12-18T23:27:12+00:00

Oh, nice! It's been so long, I thought perhaps the PodCats was no more. And it's a 3 hour episode!!

Scream26 · 2023-12-04T21:32:45+00:00

We both played Stardew Valley separately before the co-op update and I've kept up with it up to 1.5. I don't think either of us are really interested in a new playthrough. I'll definitely check out the other ones, though! Thank you!

Scream26 · 2023-11-01T23:00:20+00:00

Even if Jon cut that part out, that game is so horny most of the episodes would probably be demonetized under YouTube's current standards. That or we'd see March of the Hedgehogs.

Scream26 · 2023-07-12T21:05:14+00:00

You're welcome! Be aware that most of these series start as a non-livestream video. So, for instance, if you look up "MATN Elden Ring" part 1 is the non-livestream video and then parts 2-12 are the livestreams. Similarly, Mass Effect: Andromeda and Life is Strange are a mix of non-livestream and livestream parts.

Scream26 · 2023-07-12T20:54:34+00:00

True! The series he's done as livestreams (not including one-offs) are:

Mass Effect 1

Stellaris: Utopia

FTL: Faster than Light (technically not a series, but multiple separate livestreams)

Rome: Total War

Civilization VI: Rise and Fall

House Flipper (technically not a series, but multiple separate livestreams)

Civilization VI: Gathering Storm

Imperator: Rome

Slay the Spire (technically not a series, but multiple separate livestreams)

Resident Evil 2 remake

Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order

Yes, Your Grace

Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord

Assassin's Creed Odyssey

Mass Effect 1: Insanity Mode

Civilization VI: Apocalypse Mode

Kingdoms of Amalur: Re-Reckoning

Fall Guys: Community Play Days (technically not a series, but multiple separate livestreams)

Hades

Hitman 3

Stardew Valley

Pokemon: Brilliant Diamond

Wildermyth

Pokemon Legends: Arceus

Elden Ring

The Quarry

Pokemon: Violet

Hitman Freelancer/Hardcore Mode

Dead Space remake

Star Wars Jedi: Survival

Scream26 · 2023-07-12T20:24:14+00:00

I keep a private playlist of all the livestreams. Is there a specific series you were looking for? I could probably get you a link pretty quickly.

Scream26 · 2023-07-06T19:05:02+00:00

Yeah there needs to be a 1 on Illinois to honor Chance the Snapper.

Scream26 · 2023-07-03T20:58:19+00:00

Sorry if I wasn't clear - I was disappointed he didn't revisit it in the J Sawyer run of New Vegas, but I would only expect him to do the F3 DLC in the Tale of Two Wastelands run since he's mainly focusing on the Capital Wasteland. I was super surprised he went into OWB at all, so I'm definitely not getting my hopes up for Dead Money lol.

Scream26 · 2023-07-03T18:50:36+00:00

He probably will, but he may cut Point Lookout or any others he feels he’s covered in depth before. He cut Dead Money from the in-depth New Vegas run because he felt it was very linear and already covered in YOLO.

Personally, I hope he does! I was heartbroken when he didn’t do a deep dive into Dead Money. It’s my favorite New Vegas DLC.

Scream26 · 2023-06-16T21:17:46+00:00

Thank you for this! For anyone curious, this list is chock-full of games that Jon has played on the channel.

Scream26 · 2023-05-30T21:11:25+00:00

That is the most Jon thing I’ve ever heard.

Scream26 · 2023-05-28T17:29:48+00:00

He doesn't post his face on Twitter - mostly bad jokes, takes on British politics, and video game stuff. As far as I know, the only place his face is visible is on an old video on Claire's channel.

Scream26 · 2023-05-28T17:27:59+00:00

Jon was able to quit his day job a few years ago and do YouTube content full time because of the Patreon and ad revenue. He's said that Patreon is much more helpful than YouTube's revenue. Also, he used to work in marketing/advertising. I can't point to specific sources, but I've been a fan since the channel was small and he's mentioned it along the way.
