Talk:Orz (Star Control)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I removed the line where it analyses the ships to say its unlikely the Orz beet the Androsin in ship to ship Combat. That kind of logic isn't in the game
<LordR-man> Fwiffo- What really happened to the Androsynth in sc2? <Fwiffo> In regards to the Androsynth: They were snagged by the entity who/which projected its fingers into our dimension (which looked to us as the Orz.)
This is a quote from a chat log where Fwiffo is Paul Reiche III and Fred Ford answering questions. I can't be bothered to figure out which one it is at the time. At any rate, this proves that it is not just a theory. Andre 19:33, 5 Aug 2004 (UTC)
- The page with their bios states that Fwiffo is Reiche. Not that important, but, there you have it... :-) — Frecklefoot | Talk 20:22, Aug 5, 2004 (UTC)

- The log suggests that it's both of them using Paul's computer, that's why I'm not sure who said that particular quote. It's a moot point anyway. Andre 20:58, 5 Aug 2004 (UTC)

- OK, like I said, I *know* that is true - because, like you, I'm a fan of the game, have read chat logs with the authors, and such. But isn't that a BIG spoiler for someone who's trying to find out about the game? I don't know... I think all of these pages should be revised, separating spoilers from non-spoilers... and marking the former as such. Dehumanizer 21:55, 5 Aug 2004 (UTC)

- I'll add spoiler warnings to pages that need them, then. Good thought. Andre 22:09, 5 Aug 2004 (UTC)

Anyone know if this is true, and should it be added to the page?
Not sure if anyone still updates this, but what were the revelations about the Orz revealed in SC3? I played that game and enjoyed it (of course, I hadn't yet played SC2) but it was a long time ago and even if I could remember I was probably too young to grasp it. Just because fans don't like it, I don't think we should pretend it doesn't exist. RentACop 05:59, 8 October 2005 (UTC)
- Orz were "revealed" to be the thralls of the Eternal Ones, abandoning their hinted origin for "Precursors/Eternal1s did it!", the game's answer to everything. --Kizor 17:04, 6 December 2005 (UTC)
How is the Nemesis supposed to work? I try it in Super Melee (SC2), but all it seems to do is 3 crew damage per shot! What is it supposed to really do?
- Its main power are the marines, which are launched by pressing both fire buttons. The turret can rotate too. --Kizor 09:08, 12 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Language section
I made some changes to the language section since I felt that the example phrase was too long an uninformative. These are the only Orz-terminologies that I found that have some clear importance to the game or the Orz themselves (the latter seem to be detailed at the other sections). If someone feels I missed an important term go ahead and add it, but the list shouldn't be too long either way.
[edit] Are they evil?
I've been thinking: if the Orz are *fingers*, what if there are *toes* too, and they caused the Androsynth's disappearence? And perhaps the Orz *frumple* if we mention the Androsynth because they want us not to *smell* the *smelly* *toes*? ;) Frigo 22:31, 1 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Quotes
I added the second quote. this is the greeting that they give from star control III. when you leave them, they also say "yes. we do. goodbye is the *GAME*. hello! i am only joke! it is funny enough! do not forget to *ENJOY THE SAUCE*", but i dont want to add too many big quotes. also, the grammar of the quotes maybe slightly off, as i have not played that game in a long time. i just remember those quotes somehow... -cmnamost
[edit] OR
I really like Star Control 2, but this article (as others of the races seem to be) is filled with WP:OR. Does anyone feel strongly on the subject? Is anyone else willing to do cleanup? --GargoyleMT 18:08, 20 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] spoilers of course, but..
An article about the orz needs to contain spoilers somewhere, but this article is labeled spoilers from the start. It should have "spoiler-free" and "spoiler" zones told apart.
