    No I think he's right, disembodied voice ranting insanely, jump scares while wandering around in dark corridors, ghost like encounters, it has it all. Hearts and Minds is kind of spooky, but the mission he's talking about takes it to another level.
    If something is not broken, don't fix it, if it is broken, don't leave it broken.
    Oh Hell NO to ARC

    Eh, TEHO.

    I find the ethics of mass cloning to be a LOT creepier, myself.

    That mission. If that mission had not existed, I might have left STO in a very early stage. I was liking to do an episode every few weeks. Then Bonniekin, and bam, addicted for the rest of my life.


    One of the best, with the best VO work to date. Concerning emotional impact, not many missions reach that. Mind Game and Surface Tension do, as well as the Romulan tutorial.

    Cutting the Cord.

    That mission was so big for me. Shooting Hakeev. Oh, man.

    I structured D'trel's entire story around that mission.

    And while it has no VO and not much impact on the feels, I LOVE Cold Storage. Thot Trel is such a great, classic, Black Hat/Evil Is Hammy villain. And I LOVE him. I must've killed him 50 times, and it NEVER gets old...

    But the Rommie tutorial, Mind Game, and Surface Tension are really awesome. Very true.

    Yeah... Personally, the Devidians don't even scare me (Their phase has actual light, which is a relief!) but the darkness, and the way the hologram's voice is processed... Yeah, that's pretty scary. For some reason, I ran the mission on an away team where there was a Saurian who came up as the blacked-out face for the log pad... It was creepy. Just a vaguely-alien silohouette with white eyes and a thin smile staring at me...

    No, it's Hail Ba'al! and Cthulhu ftagn!

    Different guys. But both worthy of proper respect.

    Which, yes, includes using the sacred "ftagn" always and only for the Dark and Mighty Cthulhu (Cthulhu ftagn!).

    Hail Ba'al!

    DID YOU NOT GET YOUR PLEASURE PALACE? AW, GOD DAMN IT!!!!

    Now I've got to go back and set aside ANOTHER pleasure palace...

    Some days, I really HATE being Grand Vizier...

    Hail Ba'al!

    Because you will fail when you fish up a stale crail.

    LOVED the Bonniekins bit. They really need more like that. After all regarding the ST universe:

    "It's not safe out here! It's wondrous, with treasures to
    satiate desires both subtle and gross. But it's not for the timid."

    We've had some Horta attacks, but to enemy, not to our players. Had "Devil in the Dark" been a game mission with the right cave lighting, I'd be freaking out and loving every minute. I'd really like to see more of that dangerous creepiness in the game.

    But if you bail on the stale crail, who will wail with the flailing crail tail?
    And who will answer the hail? Certainly not the flailing crail, may haps a whale's tale of a flailing sail?

    (Well... That was my attempt,

    at continuing the rhyme time,

    don't look at me with contempt,

    it may be a crime....)

    Ignore the fact that he smacked in the head by a falling moon...
    He is the Master of Shadows!

    Poetic, that. All his masterful scheming, in which basically everything we ever saw happen in that storyline was either his doing and furthered his goals. Yet, when he at last got what he wanted, its like his schemes simply gave out, and he was undone... by a moon.

    What's more ironic on top of that is that he shot the gravatic blast that pulled in Bota Magna (or Aqua Magna, depending on what you read) and ripped his (mechanical) brain apart.

    EDIT: I have a MOC of the Great Spirit Robot that I made years ago, I need to get a picture of it to show. 'Tis 28" tall.

    The Bonnie-kin rhyme used to creep me out, until it dawned on me that it was just a thinly veiled redshirt joke. Then it became more funny than creepy, but also more passe than either funny or creepy.

    That said, "What Lies Beneath" is still among the best missions from the original game.

    You win.

    I've got some pictures of old ones I did years ago. Haven't taken any new pics, but I prolly should since my tablet has a decent enough camera... I work better Toa-sized, though. And I make the most unoriginal legs known to man, but I use my own arm setup and I <3 it.

    It was even creepier back when it originally aired.

    There wasn't the level of voice overs there are now, so when the rhyme suddenly started, it really had a bigger impact than it does now. Coupled with the fact that when I played this, I had just bought surround sound for my PC and was playing it one dark winters night, in the house alone! :o

    It was a good few seconds before I realised the voice was coming from STO.

    A few seconds is a long time when you're in that state. :D

    best to play certain scary dark games at midnight, especially a few hours before you consumed a bit of salt and sugar in some foods and start looking over your shoulder more and more and the thought something bad is going to happen at any time. so wound up, its a perfect place to run all that scary stuff and really get into it. better then any of those TRIBBLE horror movies you get these days.
    T6 Miranda Hero Ship FTW.
    Been around since Dec 2010 on STO and bought LTS in Apr 2013 for STO.
