I’ve been covering the Three Body Problem book series on this channel for quite some time now. This video will contain major spoilers for Cixin Liu’s Remembrance of Earth’s Past Trilogy. The cosmos and its inhabitants throughout most of the series remains mysterious, but eventually more about the nature of the universe and those who live it is revealed, much of what we learn only adds to the cosmic dread at already permeates much of the series. The Remembrance of Earth’s Past trilogy by Cixin Liu paints a picture of cosmic civilization that is dark, lonely, and terrifying. A universe where infant civilizations on young worlds might call out into the darkness seeking reprieve from the seemingly endless cosmic loneliness only to find that they have revealed themselves to a hunter in the dark, whose weapon is now squarely focused upon them. This is the reality of life within the dark forest, but there are some who master this universe. In this video we will discuss the various civilizations and groups known to inhabit Cixin’s Liu’s universe.

Such a good sci fi idea, but such shit tier books.
I'm not religious but I understand why people gravitate toward it. Nature has many laws but compassion is not one of them. It is an exception in a cosmos full of harsh rules. And yet, in the end, many races came together, and only by abandoning competition and embracing cooperation did they manage to overcome the extreme adversity that would be the end of all existence. Many rules can be bent, some broken. Perhaps compassion will be the tool we choose to wield in order to break the bonds of nature and truly transcend. Again, I'm not religious but I get it.👍
I've never heard of these, ever, but your video here is so well put, edited and written that I believe I now have a new obsession. Thanks.
The real question is…do they have porn?
We all know PC is master race
I just started watching the Chinese live action broadcast of the Three body problem.
5th of September, 2063
So, the zerohomers are basically the covenant from halo…
….. youtube is corptube….
I have an idea for a book series to cover. Yeah, I'm sure you've heard requests before. But, Gene Wolfe's The Book of the New Sun is superb, and it's so deep and full of so many little mysteries and puzzles, that it would provide video material for frickin' decades.
Just a thought.
I always click on the like button in each one of Quinn's videos even before watching them.
I know they will always be top quality content. 🏆
10:14 There is no way in hell you'd get me to do that. I surmise that black holes are either gateways, or they are indeed holes that presumably your body and SOUL would fall into. If you could have other lives i think this would kill you infinitely and for good. Um id not want to take that chance.
I remembered reading the part about the photoids, dimensional collapse attack and the first droplet attack, blew my mind back then
Oooooh I can't wait to see a dimension strike on screen the CGI is actually pretty good 🙏🏾
Fantastic.
Literally just discovered this channel and I'm completely obsessed with your narrations and thoughts! If you don't already know about them, I highly recommend looking into the graphic novel, Shakara and the video game (or at least its art book), Scorn. Both are really good with unique stories.
tencent 🤢🤮
No glorious Imperium of Man?
The dark forest idea is so depressing.
After you recommended this series, I could not put these books down even as I dreaded reading the next page. Somehow the cosmic horror gets worse and worse and yet the story gets more and more compelling.
I didn't even know the show was happening… Super pumped for it
As always, this is a great video and you turned me on to this book series. Never stop, Quinn. The world needs you.
Quinn + Warhammer 40k = 🤯
I like these videos because I like finding out the cool concepts in these books, but since the mood of the books is such a huge downer, I wouldn't be able to get through even a single book.
Bought the books based on your videos and, man I'll just keep watching your videos.
I just finished Death's End. Thanks for recommending this book series!!
Regarding the Ultimate ships… But isn't the current understanding that the universe is expanding and that space itself can expand faster than the speed of light? Would that not make their ships unfit for purpose?
Let's go! Thank you so much!
I need more of organism 9186
I would pretty much just toss live adaptation into the trash, more so because tencent is behind it. They are notorious for blatant copyright/IP theft, that and they are controlled by the CCP.
Quinn, I am just curious, have you read the bobiverse books? They are not as complex as most material you cover, but the scope is quite large and it has some pretty great alien encounters. Just curious if it has ever been on your radar.
usually don‘t write comments but i just wanted to thank you for introducing me to the trisolaris trilogy. it‘s the most amazing story i‘ve ever experienced in any kind of media. thank you, quinn.
