Edit: Bah, this was already discussed.
<ignore>
OK, I guess I'm going against the stream here, but will there be an option to switch the voices off and just play the game with subtitled dialogues? I have a pretty rough idea about how video game voice acting was around the 90's, and I don't want to hear it if it sucks. Notice that I said IF. I haven't heard it yet.
Also, you read dialogue about 10 times faster than any organic being can say it aloud, and you can skim a text in a few seconds to determine its content, and then read the details at your leisure. This makes for a more relaxed playing environment, as you don't have to listen closely for relevant information all the time.
So, dev guys, please make the removal of subtitles and playback of voiceovers an option, if it's possible.

The voice acting is definately good for a game. I think the original 3DO version go an award for that or something... I know it made it get good ratings anyway.
It's a GREAT version.

It's in the source:
src/sc2code/comm/zoqfot/zoqfotc.c
enum { ZOQ_ALIEN, FOT_ALIEN, PIK_ALIEN }; That reads from left to right.

Adding randomness to the locations of the Rainbow worlds might work, but then you wouldn't have that neat-looking arrow that points towards Groombridge and the centre of the galaxy.
If they added a optional 'randomize planet/star stats? (y/n)' feature to the game, and suggested that only folks who've already won the game use this feature, I'm pretty sure that'd already take into consideration that the setup of the galaxy isn't how it was pre-plotted according to the story.
But again, they'd still have to keep the location of Artifact Worlds and Alien Home Worlds consistent, to match the spoken dialogue.
Speaking of the Zoq-Fot-Pik, I'd always wondered about the Zoq. (The green female one on the left.) She looks somewhat plantlike, I wonder if that's intentional, (as in, she's a plant-based life form!). I suppose she could also be some sort of beak-less duck-like creature as well, if you look at her body differently. Kinda like one of those bunny/duck optical illusions.

We did. You did. Yes we can. No.

Cordial relations? Well, what do you mean by cordial? I think the Supox and the Humans get along pretty well, as to the Humans and Zoq... unless you mean, say, cross-pollenating.
