Title: Is it me... Post by: Glitch on July 24, 2003, 09:11:48 pm ...or do the Kohr-Ah have the best lines in this game? They are so straightforward and direct; I love it.
My favorites: You: Surrender or we will destroy you! Kohr-Ah: Over five thousand races have made such a claim. We survived. They did not. Nor shall you. You: Surrender or die! Kohr-Ah: Our counter to your statement is simpler: Just die. You: You attacked us before and we survived! You cannot destroy us! Submit! Kohr-Ah. We did. You did. Yes we can. No. Pretty confident bugs. ;D Title: Re: Is it me... Post by: Kohr-Ah_Primat on July 24, 2003, 11:05:30 pm What can I say that you've not already said? They're incredibly calm and unshakeable under any situation, which makes them very cool. The whole, genocidal-slaughter-in-the- name-of-galactic-peace thing aside.
Well, I'd be remiss to neglect mentioning that they do lose their cool when you approach the Sa-Matra. Then again, I'm pretty sure any human religious zealot would be pretty darn annoyed if some pesky monkeys tried to desecrate a religious artifact of theirs. Title: Re: Is it me...

I can imagine that would cause some trouble. :)

That'd give the term holy fire a whole new meaning...

Title: Re: Is it me... Post by: Crowley on July 25, 2003, 08:35:20 am Perhaps it's that basic contradiction in the Kohr-Ahs nature that make their lines so great. You expect single-minded fanatics to be emotional and passionate. Contrary to the stereotype, you get calm and coldly rational replies.
Title: Re: Is it me... Post by: Omni-Sama on July 25, 2003, 09:22:52 pm Their punishment is quick and easy... no need to put any fluff in there about emotion or desires or anything like that. They give you the facts, they kick you in the pants. Quite an effective way to be a killing machine.

Title: Re: Is it me... Post by: pie on July 26, 2003, 06:06:47 pm the Kohr Ah also talk as double as the Kzer Za about the "why do u do this thing" statment
my favourite is "We are the Ur-Quan Kohr-Ah. Our nature, the fulfillment of our fate requires your destruction." besides, I like the kohrah the most because it's the best speech in the game the kzerza speech is long... slow... and slow...................... I usually ending reading the subtitles before it talks the first word the arilou\dnyarri\syreen are also good speeches the others are ok but the Slylandro Probe speech is the worst Title: Re: Is it me...

That's one of the funniest things I've heard in a while. |
