Would you an orz ?
Its been almost 2 weeks since last one, so I'm making a star control 1/2 and Ur-quan masters HD thread. Star control 3 can go die in a ditch.
If you don't know Star control 2, it's a very good MC-DOS game from 1992 that got remade in 2006 in HD (which is free, here's the link for it http://sc2.sourceforge.net/downloads.php ) ,get it while its hot, runs well even on a toaster I bet.

I'd say pretty much all the voice acting in this game is amazing, I wasn't a big fan of the whiny Utwig voice and the second incarnation was better but yeah I think any voice actor who did voices there should definetly get work in other games, I'd buy those.

hey that rhymes, would you settle for a spathi instead or any other alien species from the game ? (Syreens is easy mode).

I swear the soundtrack of this game is amazing, except maybe the Druuge and the Utwig's theme which were pretty average all the race theme songs hit the spot in giving a good characterization to their alien species. Funny enough its also got the most use of bells in a soundtrack I've seen in a game at two tracks with the hyperspace theme and the Spathi them having them.
As for the melnorme I thought it was interesting that they might be the last surviving members of the sentient millieu in normal and hyperspace, which mean they might just be getting payback on the ur-quans by selling you tech and fuel Their mouth also look like it doesnt fit on their body, for some reason I thought they were blobs too (until I met the Umgah).

Welp I finished the game and was a bit disapointed because the end movie didnt play and went straight to the credits (maybe I pressed enter by accident), anyways it was pretty easy I just packed a shitload of Chmrr avatars and used brute force the entire fight through, its a pretty great game and I love the writing, music and even the graphics had their charm (especially the art direction with the aliens and their starships), fun game and I hope theres a modern follow up to it (even despite the bad odds against it from the lolsuit).

It actually makes sense for Orz to use hyper aggressive tactics like that seeing as its just one creature. That shit would be a suicide mission for any other race but Orz probably has a hell of a fun time rampaging through the enemy ship squeezing the juice until its finally stopped, and then it just looses a finger. Pretty great trade for how much damage it does and shows why fighting a creature like Orz would be a nightmare.

You're right about the tactic making sense for their background but I meant mostly what I posted as them looking innocuous enough (then you learn about them and they get pretty freaky), as in their appearance doesn't really make you extrapolate their way of attacking other ships.

It's basically the game that inspired the mass effect franchise, you explore the galaxy in your space ship from a top down perspective (the combat is also done in a similar fashion), exploring the stars and planets for ressources (a bit like how mass effect 1 did it except in a top down lander unit). The best part about the game in my opinion is meeting the different alien civilizations and races and the exposition they give you about the game universe and sometimes giving you crucial information to the main mission of the game, combat is also pretty fun and you get lots of different ships to try and use for your fleet (you get 12 ships slot beside your flagship, the ships fight in 1v1 in a top down space arena of sorts.
>>15398266
Get UQM, its completely reworked with voice acting (the voice acting is amazing in this game) , HD graphics and bug fixes. Plus its free to download (I put a link to it in the OP).
You should definitely get it since its just 750mb and its about 10 hours of gameplay (with a walkthrough, theres a few beginner traps but apart of that it may take up to twice that amount and more if you do it as if you were playing in 92 without the internet).

It's hard to tell you anything about the game without spoiling it as just gathering information in this game is one of its feature, you can get this info from some sources but I could give it to you as a spoiler right there that might prevent you from having to restart everything after realizing you fucked up you got a time limit of around 4 years from the start to finish the game.
Also as a spoilerless tip I recommend you get as much shit done as you can on every trips (dont take too much your time), try to get diplomatic efforts and ressources gathering efforts done in the same trips.

I love the Thraddash, their theme is awesome and their look is awesome, I especially love the suit they wear in their cockpit during combat, makes them look especially low tech. The best thing about them was their willingness to talk to you and describe their cultures despite their reluctance to do so. Its a shame you are forced to become enemies with them to retrieve the aqua helix, I'd have loved if they had officially stayed with the new alliance of free stars .

I would've said its hard to do in the first place when I started playing it with that time limit but the portal spawner really cuts the time to move between places down immensely compared to going there in hyperspace.

This game's really got one of the best soundtrack in any video games I ever played, I put it at a higher quality than shadow of the collosus or any final fantasies.The only shortcoming being there is less tracks than those (yet they are all pretty awesome except the Utwig's and the Druuge's theme which werent that special to me). Every tracks for specific alien species really gives a good characterization to their specific civilizations, I fucking love it. I even like most remixes, makes for a pretty big library in the end, lots to like about it all.

Just play the game.
The Chenjesu and Mmrnmhrm are a match for both Ur-Quan subraces, but they severely lack numbers and ability to create more of their species (which is part of why they combine.) I would say that the Chenjesu in particular are basically like "The Master Race/Species of the galaxy" and are only lacking in fighting capabilities (which The Mmrnmhrm possess, despite only being colonization robots for another super advanced species that has yet to enter SC2 region of space.) Commander Hayes explains all of this in detail. Chmmr are supposed to be even better, but Star Control 3 was a failure and never got into why they are so great. Also, I believe the Dynarri cannot control Chmmr because they are like Taalo.
tl;dr: The game tells you everything you need to know and more.

I saw some of this guy's fan art and thought it was fairly inoffensive but what you posted really was something, very weird association to be honest. You could say this kind of person exists in every fanbase even one as small as the star control one is.
>>15415788
I'd say the orz could be a match for the Ur-quan or even the dnyarri since the real strength they have is never showed, they are probably immune to mind control since they come from another dimension (they also say the Taalo are in their origin dimension and they were immune to the hypnotoads) and who knows how many of them are left to pour into real space from their realm.
>>15416257
Thats actually some pretty nice lore and I actually missed that even when I played through the game, the avatar is certainly strong enough to easily beat one or more Ur-quan korh-ah or kzer-za dreadnoughts so I would see how they finish them up after destroy the sa-matra .
