These guys are probably the best villains ever conceived. You can't help but feel sorry for them.

[MagusJoseph]

The Kzer-Za's voice makes my hair stand on end when he starts getting heated in his words... SC2 really did a good job here, I think

[ErasmusBasset]

Hey!

HeyheyheyHEY!

Leave your sheathes out of it.

Y'goddamn pervert.

[mrfalafl]

The part where he says "There is something wrong here..." up until "and I have found the source of these FETID emanations!"...

That was the outgoing message on my answering machine for most of the 90's

[mrfalafl]

Kzer-Za music = EPIC

Kzer-Za voice = EPIC

Kzer-Za lines = FUCKING EPIC

Fucking best most 3-dimensional bad guys EVER in any game EVER EVER.

And then Accolade went and shat all over that in Star Control 3... ugh...

[TheUrQuanMasters]

We will give you no more warnings, renegade human.

[ClankytheGorn]

btw, anyone who likes or loves this game. i am making a game similar too it, inspired!

[bobbydog29]

When they tell you to flee after being defeated by the kohr ah and they hope your species survives

you really get a feeling what the kzer za where all about

[ertyqwer]

@sm753 i'd say they're more of antagonists than villians. but yea, those backgrounds are the greater part of what made SC2 so epic.

[ertyqwer]

@MagusJoseph *SPOILERS* it's actually the voice of that creature in the corner :)

[TheUrQuanMasters]

I love me.

@atherrien95 You can't see the sheath because it has retracted of course!

[siskavard]

@Xondar11223344 you... should probably see a doctor...

[atherrien95]

@Xondar11223344 "There is something wrong here, something that makes my sheath retract and my talons ooze"............WHAT SHEATH?

[sava1811]

The Kzer Za are the lesser of two evils, I mean if I was the leader of a space race like them the choices I'd present to those who I vanquished would be: submit or die, instead of submit or live in peace imprisoned in your homeworld. (They even got a new planet for the Syreen, I mean what kind of villain cares for the people they pwnd?)

The kohr ah are the evil ones :(

[Xondar11223344]

They look like penises!!

[Whatever4690]

@f4ckutube

Yeah not like stars treks aliens of a human with a bit of crap on his nose.

[f4ckutube]

Sci-fi needs more non-humanoid aliens.

[Shavarnarak]

@madhayro2

The voice mostly makes me think the voiceactor had to much difficulty doing such a deep voice. It sounds to strained.

The Kohr-Ah one on the other hand does sound very good.

[technopanzer]

where are the syreen penetrators aboard your "loveboat"?

[1acount]

as civvilizations dcays this,...........is the inevitable consequence,pasion,life,it all decays,rots and dies,from the gradaul inefable decay of fruit or vegetables,upthe ladder of life to cancer and disease in humans,all caused by so called"civilization,whatwas itthe human captain said in the beggening?they once had pasion,they thought thier sheer hatred wouldrip down the slave shield,over time,they forgot what it ment tohate the ur qaun

[egg64]

@m1omg It was pretty fucking scary, they'd be imploring you to flee and get are far away as possible. And all the alien species and their places and homeworlds on the starmap would just started disappearing, after the Kohr-Ah just indiscimately commits genocide against all others not being them, shit was tense.

[egg64]

@HaystackCaldoon Unresolved enslavement issues, lol.....same as a guy cheating on every woman he's ever been with because one chick did him wrong. What happened to games like this....

[RET80]

Games have since moved onto a higher budget and have become hollywood style; cranked out with dazzling 3D, but this game remains ageless. The Ur-Quan, to this day, still remain the most terrifying villains I have ever experienced in any game. Move over Gannon.

Honestly, the game industry should just return to what it once was, there were more original games then, when the studios were smaller and had less to work with.

[Kromgar]

They're still evil. They're still hellbent on enslaving everyone, whatever their reasons may be.

[HaystackCaldoon]

The story of the Ur-Quans and the Dnyarri is one of the most terrible and wonderful parts of SC II; it raises serious ethical questions and paints the Kzer-Za as not being evil at all, considering what their race endured. They, at least, are willing to let other races live in peace (albeit slave-shielded).. The Kohr-Ah are the real bad guys here, taking self-preservation to much too far of an extreme.

@neomage86

Uhh heh, no. Pretty decent game and they did make it :)
