Star Control 3 - The Arilou

[XcomTitan1985]

Let's be fair. Some of the voice acting in SC3 was MUCH better than SC2. But not many. however the Arilou on this one sounds much better than the SC2 Arilou.

[WutendRongulo]

WHAT? ok, the guys at Legend obviously didn't play the originals by Toys For Bob enough to realize that the Arilou were supposed to be the typical "little green men." this... what IS it? it's brain is squirming at me!

[Norrec87]

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGHHH­H

[ChrisAlgoo]

expectaaaaations

[Whatever4690]

Star control 2 is 1000 times better than this crap.

[Ambaristaron]

how its bad.. can't look at this

[Mandemon1990]

What. The. Fuck.

You call this Arilou? I call this heresy!

[getfreegamesfast]

why does his head change shape all the time?!

[Muilkorfje]

This looks like a Arilou with down on steriods...

[superpenguin4500]

so why is the arilou in a refridgerator?

[kvn8907]

@superpenguin4500 Hehehe

[1acount]

in this game the arilou and syreen look like thier made of playdough uuuuuuuughhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh­hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh­hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh­hhhhhhhhhh iwikikki

[1acount]

wtfkinda worm hes got in his head

[superpenguin4500]

It's a monkey with a bulging head. Not an Arilou.

[DarkArtistKaiser]

You know this wouldn't be so bad if not for his HEAD BULGING.

[MegaVideoGameMusic]

what a retarded looking arilou! AND THE VOICE?! what have they done to star control.......

[inkiw]

This is the scariest video I have seen in a few months.

[Naxwell]

When the Arilou's forehead crawls, the saints cry.

[asincourt]

is that a BLOODY HAND MARK in the back ground?

[Righton2000]

(looks closer) Bloody?

[DarkArtistKaiser]

@asincourt

What you serious I dought they wou-oh my god there is a hand mark in the back.

[AllOtherNamesTaken]

Arilou is smug as hell.

[MrManganese]

I couldn't finish this game fast enough..

[Shavarnarak]

There's a *NNNGH* in my head. But it doesn't like to be confined.

[silverleaf81]

OMG WHAT DID THEY DO TO THE ARILOU!!!

[MegaVideoGameMusic]

@silverleaf81 *tear* this game is awful.... the arilou are BLUE!!!!

[CorruptedRaven]

Jesus christ. That's probably the most terrifying thing I've seen in a long time...

[Juff0Wup]

I'd hit it.... WITH A FUCKING HAMMER IN THE HEAD TO KILL THOSE MAGGOTS GUIVERING INSIDES ITS HEAD

[Zernium]

I think something laid eggs in his head and they hatched and are trying to get out.

[Eikinkloster]

I like it SC3. The big problem is that they keep recounting the events from SC2, and the guy who does it just can't write. I mean, he can write like you and me, but not like real writers such as the SC2 guys. So, by spoiling the good memories from SC2, SC3 really sucks and deserves the retconing it got.

What I liked the most was the return to the idea of colonies and mines of SC1. If you think, by the end of SC2 you've ripped the GALAXY of ALL MINERALS :-) It annoys the Hell out of me.

[rainbowwesley]

I thought Arilou is alliance. The site says he is neutral. I need to know why.

[Kfloon]

The Arilou were only a member of the Alliance during the first Ur-Quan War to protect humanity. Once humans got slaveshielded, the Arilou ditched everyone. After that, they never officially rejoined, but they popped up every now and then to give you hints, both in this and Starcon2.

[rainbowwesley]

Who's side is Arilou? Alliance or neutral?

[KingArthurBr]

EU TINHA MEDO DELE!

[GETURPOPCRNRDY]

...is he going to rape me?

[illegalusername]

Nightmare fuel right here

[GullGet9]

...And I thought ZEX seemed to want to rape me.

[Alexoneil]

Compared to this guy Zex is harmless.

[ladystorykeeper]

Dosent the background look like a microwave oven?

[Kation666]

Not only its the worst ep ever but its creepy people just make it worse...

[ladystorykeeper]

YEEE!!! oh... great for a halloween costume

[DarkAngelKisses13th]

You know, I haven't played any of these games, but just from what I read, I latched onto the Arilou pretty quickly. Parental feeling~

But. Um. This voice actually has me laughing a bit, because -

"Have I offeeended you? How~ can I~ APPEEAASE you?"

D: They don't sound parental at all. They even sound a little condescending at some points. Would have looked cooler with green.

[ZarlaSheenaza]

I liked the Arilou myself! But yeah, this voice makes them sound rather creepy. D:

[EnigmaHood]

That's kind of the point. The Arilou are supposed to be creepy. After all, in the end they were trying to use humans as guinea pigs to save their own dying race.

[pocketjedi]

@ZarlaSheenaza well they do have that 'ulterior motive' for human kind. I think this fitting, an thus they want to appease and please because of their 'helping' us long before we became space faring. 1 and 2 go into this if you play the game deep

[RevNoahWhateley]

I don't cotton to that "come hither" look it's giving me.

[Asko83]

The bubbling head scares me...

In star control 2 the Arilou were funny but these guys are just creepy.

[Asko83]

[SpaceJamEnthusiast]

sc3 was a piece of gay shit, sc2 fucking owned

[MegaVideoGameMusic]

@SpaceJamEnthusiast exactly

[Shavarnarak]

Ah the percolating heads version. :D

[Greerkid]

Since when did the Arilou become a race of fugly mongoloids? FUCK THAT.

[GenaTrius]

That voice would have worked fine for Admiral ZEX, but with the Arilou... Wait a sec... That's not an Arilou, that's a horribly deformed child with muscles for brains.

That's okay then!

[ZarlaSheenaza]

Too slow and weird for Admiral ZEX.

[GenaTrius]

Too weird for Admiral ZEX? :P

[ZarlaSheenaza]

It's too mystical and floaty. ZEX NEEDS TO BE FLIRTACIOUS AND SMOOTH

[OvaltinePatrol]

ZEX was the SEX.

[pocketjedi]

@ZarlaSheenaza an noodly, an like bigfoot when your scratching it's belly, an 'oddly' flirtatious to humans yes. the game never goes into wheter zex is interested in female humans btw

[ReverendSyn]

No, it's an Arilou. It's a fully liscensed game so if it says Arilou, it's arilou. Your inability to embrace new and different reimaginings of established properties notwithstanding of course.

[MenloMarseilles]

@RevSyn: It's been declared non-canon by everyone who doesn't work at Legend though. Like, even the guys who made the first two games. And they got the copyright back for the series a few years back, so that puts us in an interesting predicament, wouldn't you say?

[pocketjedi]

@GenaTrius the voice would be better in a female pitch that is base, I always thought they'd sound like The Pilot from Farscape

[Alexyvil]

STCIII Ruined the series =( I wish I could go back in time and tell them to stay like what they did with SCII!

[OvaltinePatrol]

Wow, they really decided to turn the "crap" knob all the way and rip that sucker off. Waaay better in Ur-Quan Masters.

[Fireholly99]

AAAAAHAHHHHHHAAAAAAH

[MengoMango]

arilou used to be kinda cute...

[ZarlaSheenaza]

I KNOW I don't know what happened here. SC3 TEAM TOOK SOME GOOD CRACK I GUESS

[comawhite015]

FUCKING GROSS

They've totally changed shape. Gross. GROSS!

[TMMQuicksilver]

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA­AAAAGH!

That horrible, horrible head tumor! Oh god, it's atrocious! How?! How can they pervert something like this?

The horror... the horror....!
