Coruscant, not a place you wanna live if you’re afraid of heights. Even if you’re on the poor end you’re still essentially walking on a sidewalk built on the side of a skyscraper. 😱
Depends on how low you are. Remember, the city's also built on top of mountains. Not all skyscrapers extend to the lower surface of the planet. Some are built directly on the sides of mountains. A lot of poverty areas are likely on the cliffs of these mountains. So, kind of like rural China I would imagine if rural, mountainous China looked like Shanghai lol
3D movement would be essential to take full advantage of being surrounded by buildings in all directions. Dying Light but with limited jetpack use, fuck yeah.
Jedi: We can feel the suffering of life forms from planets away... we are a force for good... Also Jedi: Our temple dumped so much sewage on the lower levels that we transformed the poor people into mutants LOL

Star Wars had deathworlds before 40k was a thing ( Endor ). It's a "bit" annoying that people think Star Wars wasn't originally filled with darker stories.
@@chrismath149 That would be scary for sure but a 40k death world would have that and be a post apocolyptic industrial wasteland that left people out as bait to capture the maneaters so you can drug them up and use them as weapons of war.
People from there probably dreamed of a place like Naboo or even Tatooine if it meant escaping that planetary confinement removed from the stars in the night sky. Even if trillions of lives were sadly lost, one can’t really say if the Legends Vong invasion and terraformation of Coruscant was really that catastrophic, or rather the first long-desired gasp of fresher air for the planet in thousands of years
@yaang9258 Disney has brought nothing other than the total destruction of Star Wars. They have ruined it. That's why ignore everything they do and just concentrate on the old games and books etc for more lore. It's way deeper, way better thought out, it's all essentially Lucas approved and it's not contradictory like Disney's woke garbage writing is.
Honstly, i'm surprised lowest levels aren't crushed flat by the wieght of everything above them. I mean, how much extra mass does this planet have by the time of ROTS? It's gravity has to be at least 2 G For reference, the tallest building on earth is Burj Khalifa, at 2,717 feet (228 m tall) at most 163 floors
I'm fairly sure at this point that they would have had to incorporate antigravity tech into the city. The weight alone of steel, concrete, glass, etc...would have collapsed millennia ago.
Its surface gravity is about one Earth gravity. Its diameter is about 500 miles less than Earth’s. One thing of note, is that the planet’s size does not directly correlate to its surface gravity. For instance, the “surface” gravity of both Saturn and Neptune are roughly equal to the Earth’s 1 G, despite their relative size. The ditermining factors is its mass and density, was well as its radius. Much of what was the lower levels have indeed been crushed. The lowest reachable levels on verifiable record, worthy of being called levels are levels 5 - 1. However it’s important to note the old surface elevation (and crust thickness) must have varied by kilometers, just as on Earth. So whether levels 5 - 1 are at the original high plains surface or sea level or ocean floor of the deepest regions, or sitting on a kilometer of old city rubble or a kilometer below that region’s original surface. In contrast, the mountain peak at Monument Plaza was compared to the Earth’s highest peak, above sea level. A planet’s diameter and surface gravity also varies, due to sun-surface irregularities and whether we are talking about at the equator or the poles. The Earth’s diameter is about 50 kilometers greater at the equator compared to the poles. As for whether the bed rock or crust at any one point can handle the compressive force of the city scape? It’s important to understand that we aren’t talking about any one area’s ability to bare the compressive force of one massive building. Rather the compressive force is distributed across the entire surface. So it’s a matter of whether the lower levels can handle the compressive force as opposed to that of the local bed rock or crust. You could think of it as the lower levels or what was once levels have now become an artificial crust. So where the highest buildings or levels are built is based more on that.
Nah, bottom levels: Soviet Russia Reason why is because they didn't care about the well-being of its people like it should've. Chernobyl was a prime example of that.
@@Hello-bi1pmnah you could fake it, if not optimise it, it would just take forever to model, but most of the time the entire level isn’t modelled but becomes part of the skybox surrounding the level, giving the illusion of a greater map to explore.
They've repeatedly brought back characters previously believed to be deceased, some characters should just remain that way. After all, it'll get boring if too many characters survive, not to to mention that's Mace Windu and if he'd of survived he would 100% of confronted The Empire, but he never did (because he died).

I like the idea of no one knowing what the base level is like. It's cool how they've explored the galaxy from one end to the other but theres this layer on the capital world that no ones been to.
Yeah, set up a well-armed (like, a good bit of military backup) scientific expedition equipped for the various hazards, and tasked with exploring/analyzing/sampling the lower 5 floors while minimizing any potential contamination of the local ecosystem. The New Republic could certainly do that, divert some of that money going to corrupt politicians to fully fund the expedition. Makes them look good, more focused on discovery and science than the military buildup of the Empire. And, we’d get a possible epic horror story out of it. Just think, we’re given the perspective of a junior researcher who: hears the blaster fire of their accompanying battalion of soldiers, sees the pitch black that’s only lit up by the lights on their suit (and whatever floodlights the expedition brings), and witnesses some of the horrors that exist there. We could hear their thoughts about all these things, about the mounting military (and occasional researcher/construction worker) losses, about the environments, and about the horrific creatures that live there. Maybe our researcher could even begin to sympathize with the native species, who are judged as monsters but are really just animals/sapients going about their lives.
I really wanna see a story where a dark lord of the sith goes down there, feeds on all the suffering and raises an army by dominating the creatures that dwell below, making them rise to the upper levels to wreck havoc.
1:18 well, time to break out the excavators. Horrific abominations couldn’t keep us from going deeper. Gangs couldn’t keep us out. Some toxic waste and duracrete _certainly_ won’t stop us. Bring some stabilizers and repulsors and anti-gravity tech, stabilize the area, and then *_dig._*
@@Hypercube2017 Sounds like the perfect start to a horror movie, or one of those Skyrim quests where some NPCs are exploring a cave and come upon a bunch of Draugr who murder them
This is such an incredibly fascinating concept to me. A city of skyscrapers so tall that entire ecosystems exist within them; so vast that each level develops its own independent culture. Something like this could support a whole series in and of itself.
What if the lowest level of Coruscant is actually just a cool bar with chill music that has droids in teddy bear outfits and serve free drinks and hugs to who ever manages to get there. Noone has gotten there so no one knows. :P
Why would the Jedi allow such a lawless and dangerous place right beneath them? Surely the Jedi were aware of what was happening so why would they let so many people suffer in the lower levels? Please make a video on this because it seems like it goes against everything the Jedi stand for and it’s right beneath their main temple.
This is the present day parallel of equality. They would rather help the poor in africa than the homelessness in their own city. And famous diplomacy missions. The jedi do not want to live in a utopia and be better than everyone else
Because there probably weren't enough of them to do anything that would help in the long run short of sending in a massive army and clearing shit out there's not much they could do
It probably looks like inside of the Chernobyl Reactor, with the add detail of pitch black darkness, trash everywhere, radiation eating fungii, extreme heat and god knows who else
imagine living on the lower levels like 8 to 15 and knowing monsters from down below really do exist, and that they could very well come to the higher levels to feed, much like deep sea creatures do at night. Kidnap random people from low levels, the planet is a city so who could possibly find them once they're gone.
Man this is Epic That you made a level one video. I can't ever find much about it. It would be a mini series if they made a star wars horror series or game based on getting stuck in the lower levels
While you’re all talking about this, I’m here wondering what it would be like to travel across the different levels to see the evolution of things like architecture over a hundred millennia. We obviously know what it’s like in the upper levels, but if we went down to say, level 5, how much different would the architecture and technology be? I have to imagine it would be like living in New York City and visiting a medieval castle in Scotland
Maybe lvl 1 is just foundation of the whole city? They say it's uninhabitable which could mean it's just huge slab foundation on which city was built. I know it's boring but still a possibility.
My experience of Star Wars is the OT, PT and ST and a couple games, but I love watching lore videos like this. It seems there is so much cool stuff in the Star Wars universe that just doesn't get tapped into in the preeminent media. I think a show about a jedi braving the depths of Coruscant could be amazing. No sith, no empire, just a jedi trying to root out coruption on a part of the planet that a legitimate citizen of the republic hadn't even heard about.
So disgusting we got the lower Levels and Disney refuses to capitalize on it. Horror, Heists, Class warfare\Politics...so many genres. Nope Disney Sleeps.
@@SawdustMusic-rd8mj The issue is whether I even trust them to make something good and scary with it, and not just some awful story about a transgender witch coven hiding from the evil patriarchy
Coruscant sounds like croissant which is French. Paris, the capital city of France, sits above catacombs. Therefore, Coruscant level 1 is probably the Seine River.
Corasaunt keeps building up do they ever check to make sure they are able to without damaging the bottom collapsing!? 🤔 Hate to see all thoughs nasty beast and destroyed ruins 😮
another excellent and informative video. I came here from SWT and if there is one "good" thing Acolyte did is to link STW and Stupendous Wave followers. forgive me but I had not heard of your channel or for that matter the channel I won't mention. I like your videos, they are fairly short and filled with lore, knowledge and interesting facts. thank you and I have subscribed. May peace and the force be with you.
So, I'll apologize in advance if this comes off as questioning, but does that mean that whole levels of Coruscant exist beneath the hidden Sith shrine, underneath the Jedi Temple? Are the levels so deep, from crust to spires, that the hidden Super Star Destroyer didn't rest on bedrock? The lowest levels weren't even revealed when the cityscape was rent open, to permit the Lusankya to free itself from the planet? I want to mention when Coruscant was vong-formed, because that definitely happened, yet I got the feeling that Legacy-era Coruscant was still the ecumenipolis disco ball in space, so we can skip that, but it seems weird no amount of damage to the world, or the interest of the Emperor, plumbing the deprhs for dark secrets, set foot upon the world that existed prior to its being engulfed in industry.
I remember when in clone wars ahsoka hid on the lower levels I was hoping so much that she would just go to the very bottom that would’ve been awesome hope we get to see it someday either live action, animation or even in a game

Why would the Jedi allow such a lawless and dangerous place right beneath them? Surely the Jedi were aware of what was happening so why would they let so many people suffer in the lower levels? Please make a video on this because it seems like it goes against everything the Jedi stand for and it’s right beneath their main temple.
Because they were not the government and they were not a charity organisation.
This is the present day parallel of equality. They would rather help the poor in africa than the homelessness in their own city. And famous diplomacy missions. The jedi do not want to live in a utopia and be better than everyone else
Because there probably weren't enough of them to do anything that would help in the long run short of sending in a massive army and clearing shit out there's not much they could do
Show me a major religion that DOESN’T accept suffering.
It probably looks like inside of the Chernobyl Reactor, with the add detail of pitch black darkness, trash everywhere, radiation eating fungii, extreme heat and god knows who else
imagine living on the lower levels like 8 to 15 and knowing monsters from down below really do exist, and that they could very well come to the higher levels to feed, much like deep sea creatures do at night. Kidnap random people from low levels, the planet is a city so who could possibly find them once they're gone.
Man this is Epic That you made a level one video. I can't ever find much about it. It would be a mini series if they made a star wars horror series or game based on getting stuck in the lower levels
A vr fps horror game where you are a trooper ordered to clean out the lower levels would go so hard.
Coruscant has nothing on the hive cities of 40k
Mace Windu knows what's down there!!
Wow 😭😭💀💀
I JUST GOT THAT😭😂
@rancorpit5009
Yeah, Mace "got it" too.
Too soon 😭
While you’re all talking about this, I’m here wondering what it would be like to travel across the different levels to see the evolution of things like architecture over a hundred millennia. We obviously know what it’s like in the upper levels, but if we went down to say, level 5, how much different would the architecture and technology be? I have to imagine it would be like living in New York City and visiting a medieval castle in Scotland
That terrible a planet of terror. A gilded planet.
Maybe lvl 1 is just foundation of the whole city? They say it's uninhabitable which could mean it's just huge slab foundation on which city was built. I know it's boring but still a possibility.
I really liked the dumpster fire in the R2 unit chassis :D
More stories of the levels of courscant please!!
Arent the original mandalorians, the very first when they were still an alien race, native to courcusant?
My experience of Star Wars is the OT, PT and ST and a couple games, but I love watching lore videos like this. It seems there is so much cool stuff in the Star Wars universe that just doesn't get tapped into in the preeminent media. I think a show about a jedi braving the depths of Coruscant could be amazing. No sith, no empire, just a jedi trying to root out coruption on a part of the planet that a legitimate citizen of the republic hadn't even heard about.
Excellent video! , I would have loved to see a horror SW movie about this one day!
So basically the Top is heaven and the bottom is hell.
I’d love if you did a series on the levels of Coruscant. A video on levels 1-100, 200-300, so on and so forth!
This gives me Taris Undercity vibes
How has the top not collapsed on to the bottom 😂
I think there is an ancient sith down there
Cool video man 😂
For real.
I want to know more on the ogres
Star wars shrek?
Sold.
You rule wave.
So disgusting we got the lower Levels and Disney refuses to capitalize on it.
Horror, Heists, Class warfare\Politics...so many genres. Nope Disney Sleeps.
It’s still untapped potential, they’ll probably get to it eventually.
@@SawdustMusic-rd8mj Yea we can only hope
@@SawdustMusic-rd8mj The issue is whether I even trust them to make something good and scary with it, and not just some awful story about a transgender witch coven hiding from the evil patriarchy
@@Transilvanian90 …ok, I didn’t ask for sexism and transphobia as a response
@@SawdustMusic-rd8mj I didn’t ask for your Leftoid BS opinion, but here we are. Keep simping for Disney, shill.
Coruscant sounds like croissant which is French. Paris, the capital city of France, sits above catacombs. Therefore, Coruscant level 1 is probably the Seine River.
@@mRibbons this is now canon
Corasaunt keeps building up do they ever check to make sure they are able to without damaging the bottom collapsing!? 🤔 Hate to see all thoughs nasty beast and destroyed ruins 😮
Would love to see a comprehensive description of each level & how deep each one roughly is
We need stories of urban explorers!
another excellent and informative video. I came here from SWT and if there is one "good" thing Acolyte did is to link STW and Stupendous Wave followers. forgive me but I had not heard of your channel or for that matter the channel I won't mention. I like your videos, they are fairly short and filled with lore, knowledge and interesting facts. thank you and I have subscribed.
May peace and the force be with you.
One thing I've been wondering, why didn't they send droids, not unlike the commando droids, down to superwise the lowest levels
Probe droids would've been destroyed most likely.
Probably wasn’t much down there worth policing
@marquez4497 Sort of like Zakuul's Old World district.
So, I'll apologize in advance if this comes off as questioning, but does that mean that whole levels of Coruscant exist beneath the hidden Sith shrine, underneath the Jedi Temple? Are the levels so deep, from crust to spires, that the hidden Super Star Destroyer didn't rest on bedrock? The lowest levels weren't even revealed when the cityscape was rent open, to permit the Lusankya to free itself from the planet? I want to mention when Coruscant was vong-formed, because that definitely happened, yet I got the feeling that Legacy-era Coruscant was still the ecumenipolis disco ball in space, so we can skip that, but it seems weird no amount of damage to the world, or the interest of the Emperor, plumbing the deprhs for dark secrets, set foot upon the world that existed prior to its being engulfed in industry.
I remember when in clone wars ahsoka hid on the lower levels I was hoping so much that she would just go to the very bottom that would’ve been awesome hope we get to see it someday either live action, animation or even in a game
