Star Control Discussion Board

You know, I've never played the game using the voice packs. Is it worth it? Depends on the race. Check out youtube to hear the voices. The Dnyarri, Utwig, Supox, VUX, Umgah and Kzer-za suck (IMO always). The Yehat can become a bit comical if you take the accent too seriously (IMO always). The Kohr-...

This one (Kohr-Ah) is also great: http://fc01.deviantart.net/fs42/f/2009/115/b/2/Star_Control_II_poster_by_Krejall_Ontaris.jpg Once again someone who interpreted them as caterpillars with an elongated worm like body (which gives it a better look than the one with the 'canon size', I think) (desktop...
