Mirror, Mirror?

from StarControl Forums

I know you can't use the original SC universe species as they are... but if there were a way of using them briefly, probably not but I thought I'd mention it just in case something like this might be possible...

It would be really cool if you could have just one brief quest that sent the player to a "Mirror, Mirror" Star Control universe (that's "Evil Spock with the beard" for you non-trekkies).  And in this brief quest you encounter strange things like... a brave and heroic Fwiffo!  For example...

This could be really cool as a single quest.  It sounds too me like you can't do this, but not knowing the details maybe something like this would be possible... even without any "nefarious activities".   Something like this is ALWAYS possible through nefarious activities, but I know you modern guys don't work that way.  Haha...

Stardock won't be able to, but I wouldn't be shocked to see something like this out of the mod tools

Yeah, this seems like something we'll see within the first month from the mod community.

@Alverez

It's been mentioned several times already. They are able to use everything SC related as they own it. They won't out of respect to Paul and Fred's work.

I, myself, stopped caring about SC2 lore since SCO is promised to have a completely new, its own lore.

They can't directly...

BUT i do think they can still reference something, they don't need to say names or things like that

just a mention would be an awesome and harmless Easter-egg

       "Are you crazy? why would someone want to get into interespecies relationships? next you will tell me you want to build a zoo with dangerous creatures"

 

       "Religious fungi? what are you talking about? it's a volcanic planet, nothing lives there!"

 

       "Aren't you a *HAPPY CAMPER*, oh sorry, i meant "Smart Cookie" the translator it's on the fritz again"

 

      " Har! Har! Har!"

  

       " Oh? you want to know why my ship's background changed color? What kind of question is that?"
