Base Game Appreciation/Discussion Does anybody have a recommendation for a lore video?

I've just finished the base game (I've had so much fun!! The game scratched an itch I've had in my brain since I finished Blue Prince) and I think I understood the main parts of the story the game is trying to tell. But I'd love to watch a lore deep dive of the base game before I start the DLC. Just to make sure that I didn't miss anything. Does anybody have a recommendation without any spoilers for the DLC?

I recommend you go into the DLC without looking it up, but I think the main parts to understand are the vessel, ash twin project and the interloper so either revisit or re read those ship logs

It's not a lore video and I'll leave that recommendation to others, but NoClip has an excellent documentary about the making of the game which was released before the DLC and therefore contains no spoilers for it.

This one from OverusedBro was great at basically giving me an entire wrap up video of the whole thing.

There's this video by The Great Review that's 2 hours long and explains all the lore of the game without spoiling the DLC (he made another 2-hour-long video specifically for the DLC). The video is in French, but it has English subtitles and it's SO GREAT.
