CREW STORIES / ARGAR

Argar: the reluctant recruit

He made a protest song about joining Star Citizen. Then became one of the people we see in-game most.

The protest did not hold

MaverickSabre and Sam persuaded Argar to give Star Citizen a go. Argar’s response, before joining, included an AI-generated protest song. A fairly elaborate way to say he was not convinced.

He has since become one of our most active players. Mav and Argar have known each other online for around 15 years, so the commentary was never likely to stop at the character creator.

A Zeus, some Quartz and absolutely no reputation

One of the early plans was straightforward: Argar would take his Zeus to get Quartz for the Shubin reputation grind. The Quartz disappeared quickly. A bug meant neither player received the intended reputation. An efficient lesson in why a Star Citizen evening needs a backup plan.

There have been better outcomes too. During an ore-recovery run, pirate interdictions and a power cut disrupted the operation. Argar got his Asgard away to Bloom, and the crew still managed to complete the delivery.

Part of the crew, on his own terms

Argar flies with us as a friend of the group, rather than as a TAW member. That is worth saying to anyone considering a first visit: flying a session together does not have to start with joining an organisation.

These are the trips we remember: the unexpectedly complicated jobs, the running commentary and the people who turn up again after the game has eaten the plan.

THE CREW’S “NUMBER 1 INTERNET TROLL”

The Vanduul Whisperer

Apparently the commentary now comes with merch. Argar’s shop is a separate Fourthwall store; purchases, prices and fulfilment are handled there, not by MSI.

Optional crew merchandise. No purchase is needed to join a flight. Not official CIG or RSI merchandise.
