I just love how every alien race seems to be based not around aesthetics or theme, but around motivation. The Arilou, despite being Earth's allies, 100% supported the Ur-Quan slave shielding of Earth because it would mean keeping them safe. Remember that the whole human race is nothing more than a cute little pet project to the Arilou.
the graphics and music when interacting with arilou just screams to me everything I remember about computer games and TV in the 1990s, despite never actually playing SC2
I now see a familiar taste from H.P.L.’s short story "From beyond" ,specifically with the orz in context. Though clearly, that may barely be a tip of the iceberg.
WOW. I just got shown a Metal Gear Solid video, and this was mentioned in it like 5 minutes ago. I suddenly remembered these aliens and pointed a pal to this video, and see this comment. Similar minds think alike.
la li lu le lo was actually a joke , its a word game japanese use to make fun of themselves and test themselves of their R's and L's as the language is different and its a common mistake for them to make. like lious would be like rule-us rule-ey-is anyways I mean considering that mgs 2 was all mainly just a dream anyways why not just have a inside joke as a joke for a joke
The Arilou give me such fond happy memories =) My game bugged up just after i met the Arilou and i had become so attached to all the species in the game that once i realized i could never speak to the Arilou, the Pkunk, the Supox and even the Melnorme, Zoq Fot Pik and Spathi, i began crying for an entire day overcome with great sadness... Looking at these videos brings me fond happy memories =)
I don't know who owns the rights to Star Control, but someone needs to make a 3D remastering of SC2. It should come out on its anniversary, maybe in 2017 or 2022. Would pay great cash for its release.
Yes the 3D prequel they are working on, seems promising, but the artstyle and humor doesn't fit the older titles. It is rather cartoonish and shallow fun, compared to the rather serious problems of the older titles. I was genuinely scared of the Ur-Quan, because they seem so strange and powerful. But it also has some nice humor.
i get that they're trying to protect us or whatever but they come off as vaguely condescending. it's honestly good writing, makes you think the arilou have their own ulterior, possibly sinister motives which keeps you from Completely trusting them
Everytime you encounter a race's ship there's a bunch of random greeting options they cycle through. So you might never get it, or it could come up all the time.
The Arilou is a species and separate from the Orz, which is as you put *fingers* and thus actually a singular being. They're trying to keep a fate like that of the Androsynth from happening to humans.
Androsynth most likely "became" the Orz, mirroring the horror lurking below our universe dribbling in through the physical form of anyone looking in "the wrong direction".
@@marioghernandez4960 The Orz describe humans as many 'bubbles', but collectively call themselves 'fingers' This most likely means that unlike individual human beings which are separate intelligent beings, there is only one Orz, with each 'seperate' Orz simply being an extension of this being. Think of it like this, draw a face on each fingertip and cut five holes in a paper. Slide your fingertips into those holes. Anyone ontop of the paper sees five seperate people, but in reality they're all just pieces of one greater being.
I wouldn't like to see a remake of this game....just a sequel (one made by Toys for Bob) to SC2....And, no 3D...that would look bad...especially in combat...
*"You do not want to be seen."*
Very subtle yet sinister horror.
I really dig the Arilou, they're Patronizing without really coming off as arrogant, like a parent that is just happy that their kid is inquisitive.

"There is no Androsynth now, only Orz."
"OOOORZ MOTHAFUCKA, OOOORZ!"
9 years and i didnt see this quote. ONLY ORZ.
moments later the orz ship : ORZ ORZ ORZ ORZ ORZ...and you all get murdered.

it was the best time
Back when the "Arts" in "EA" weren't so quite tongue in cheek.
Play through the game, it still holds up. You won't regret it.

Orz is Orz. You only see @fingers@
@@RequiemPoete it's *fingers*. Every symbol have meaning, but you do not know this yet
@@klepikovmd It has taken me a year to know this. Truly you are wise.
Ok, seriously: "Ariloulaleelay." Any one else having flashbacks to the "La-Li-Lu-Le-Lo"? Lol!

Came here just to look for this comment.

They remind me of Eldar.
O_o they're so psychic for some reason. So calming, compared to the other crazy shit in this game.
Arilou is the entity that people meet on ibogain trips.
Lol, best farewell ever : "goodbye, clever child!"
And they have the creeeeeeeeepiest greeting. "Last night I touched your cheek while you slept, and you smiled."
I love the dialogue in this game, it makes one think and ponder, which is lovely ;).

A HD remaster has been made but in 2D if that helps :)
***** Thankyou
+But Israeli Funny
Maybe even in 2159?
There will be a 3D Prequel

This game was so bad ass back in the day. i had it for 3D0 and comp.

The Arilou see us as pets. The Orz, if they could fully perceive us, would see us as toys, and they're rough with their toys.
@@mithiwithi More like a source of *special sauce*
They are cool. Im cool with them.
Only as creepy as a mother's fascination with her children is.
I love their theme music :D
They make me *Frumple*.
"The listening test isn't that hard!"
The test: 0:11
Where do I find him saying "Last night as you slept, I touched your face and you smiled."

i get a sneaking suspicion that the arilou are another version of the orz
or fingers

CQ Morrell But who or what killed the Androsynth?
Aki Greus What does *fingers* mean?
Androsynth most likely "became" the Orz, mirroring the horror lurking below our universe dribbling in through the physical form of anyone looking in "the wrong direction".

That's what happened to me when I smoked DMT
Do you have any friends who have missing days? Be seeing you...
This reminds me of 👽
@lin545 oh i used to play that game aswell. id love to see a remake of this game for xbox 360 or ps3.
the auto transcript of this is halarious
3 people had lost in introdimentional fatigues
You talking about Marasmius? That's MYCON territory D:
Orz are way creepier.
Some time ago I found another Arilou video with another background music. What about that?
WHAT!? These and druuge are the same voice? hahaha

the arilou are mangled versions of the greys
2:59-3:51 Cthulhu reference
I agree
1:08 you seem to have exposed brains
you should not see arilou in sc3 you will vomit or did or have
He sounds like Bob Ross(†)
Страшное дело )))
Hmmm....

I am the creepy alien who want to well... Let's not talk about that.
