Every guide on Ricardo’s Gaming begins on YouTube. This section collects the best video guide companion articles — written breakdowns with embedded video, tips, timestamps and searchable text to help you find exactly what you need.
Video guides on Ricardo’s Gaming cover Elite Dangerous ship builds, Subnautica survival, Battlestar Galactica Deadlock tactics, Farming Simulator 2022, Conan Exiles, and more. Each guide pairs Ricardo’s YouTube video with a written companion article for players who prefer to read, reference or search for specific information.
The written companion pieces exist because a three-hour livestream is no use when you just need the bit about reputation or ship fitting. Each article pulls out the useful parts and adds context, and the video stays embedded so you can jump in and watch the section you need.

Gaining Colonia Council favour (Elite Dangerous, part 2)
This is part two of a livestream from November 2021. It runs just over three hours and has one goal: build enough standing with the Colonia Council to start unlocking the Colonia engineers.
What happens in the stream:
- On-foot Odyssey missions, including a settlement job with fires to put out and alarms to deal with
- Transport missions taken straight from the Colonia Council board
- Handing in missions for reputation, reaching Friendly with the Council and pushing on towards Allied
- Clearing a wanted status at Interstellar Factors before carrying on
- Chat along the way about Odyssey frame-rate drops at settlements, ship interiors, and the engineered Guardian plasma loadout used against Thargoids
Worth knowing: this was recorded in 2021, so mission boards and reputation gains may have changed since. Use it for the approach rather than exact numbers.
