Star Trek: Klingon (PC Game 1996 by Simon & Schuster Interactive) 

that feel when you are that uncle.

Right up to the day he gets killed by Worf during the war with the Dominion.

We all need some one to fill the insane uncle slot

Like Ben from Ozark

Essentially a Klingon Rick Sanchez.

Black Klingon? They all black wys

@@louisangelowen6211 Not all of them. Gowron is a white actor for example (Robert O'Reilly.) The only one I know for certain is played by a black actor was the one played by Rick Worthy.

Just look at biker parties not much differences

@@DarkAvatar1313 The guy who played one of the Klingons played the Doctor in Star Trek Borg, yep, its the same bloke.

Intro be like anyone got duolingo??? No? OK....

three well earned deaths technically. 1 murder is a bit different...

@@Bluecatte 5 well earned deaths

Maybe something like Tomalak instructing the player about how to perform duty as a Romulan military officer. The Romulans certainly have enough established lore to explore in this kind of game.

How about a brainwash program teaching you to be a good Romulan officer putting you in various tests fighting the Federation. But you are actually a captured human so the POV makes sense for us. Then the Federation rescues you at end if you pick right.

The way the female crewmember smiled when she read the first stanzas of the poem..she knew she had an honorable comrade,just as gowron had knew

They’re mean to their kids though

@@mushroomhead3619 And elderly.

@@mushroomhead3619 Honestly, a lot of children today are such assholes, that they could use some klingo discipline.

@@mushroomhead3619 the kids enemies will try to do worse to them then their parents and Klingons collect enemies like kids collect cards so I can understand why parents are mean to their kids.

I am, usually when my boss doesn't want to pay me what I want.

I hear ya :)

+crashoverride1000 Yeah, it's too bad that the Klingon militants drove him to attack the Cardassians, break the Alliance with the Federation, banish Worf AND go to war with the Federation /for a time/. It's also a shame that he later went nuts and put the Empire at risk to try and destroy Martok which forced Worf to have to kill him.......

+ryan macdonald I never liked what he did to Worf in DS9. I don't mind the two of them becoming rivals and eventually fighting to the death, but to rehash the Sins of the Father plot from TNG (where Worf is dishonored), and especially Worf erasing his brother's memory, was a bad route to go. Gowron in this game seems closer to TNG Gowron than DS9 Gowron.

Dragblacker I never liked what he did to Worf in ds9 either. It WAS a rehash of the Sins of the Father plot from TNG and made Gowron look ungrateful and petty. Also, Gowron giving into the demands of the militants made him look like a spineless coward who only cared about staying in power.

Yes he had a sleazy side but he was all Klingon. Bad writing to take a good character and waste it with clumsy plot twists.

crashoverride1000 Agreed. The DS9 writers screwed up Gowron's character. Even IF the Founder disguised as Martok was urging Gowron to fight the Federation, it isn't like the militants hadn't always been pressuring Gowron to attack the Federation so he could've said "No, we need allies to fight the Dominion, we just need to show them the severity of the Dominion threat is all..." or something along those lines. Also, they could've had the Klingons fight the Cardassians without breaking the alliance between the Klingons and the Federation. In STO, the Klingons and the Gorn were at war without the UFP/Klingon alliance breaking for a few years and since there was only 18 months between the Klingon invasion of Cardassia and the Cardassians joining the Dominion, the Alliance could've held with some major tension. About Gowron being sleazy, it was part of his charm as a character. He lived life to the fullest like a true Klingon. If he had to be killed off, he should've died gloriously in battle while doing something to hurt the Dominion in a BIG way. Then Martok succeeds him and continues the fight against the Dominion.

44:16 too.

You could tell ,"Gowron" had a lot of fun with the Palled scene ,,,

Rick Worthy is always a pleasure to watch no matter what role he is in.

catherine haas You are So Right. Yet another awesome thing I respect of the Klingon culture; Which is a reflective reminiscence of the Japanese Samurai culture which reigned from approx. 13th - 19th century

That old Klingon turned out to be Martok

Respect the hoary head!

I want Barbara March honored that way at ST: LV

Because our culture is overrun with Change Junkies, who view the elderly and tradition as obstacles holding them back.

How? ....... He is Gowron. Enough said.

uh there are uber nerds that know all Klingon and are fluent in it.

So many characters that were meant to be one-off like Gowron and Martok or are small roles are major Trekkies and enjoyed acting in everything so they would go all out with their performance. We just got lucky the actors that played Martok and Gowron were so good they put them in more stories.

@@LordHoth_90 the fact that J.G hertzler manages to capture the Klingon Spirit.. even in the side role that he had in this game.. playing a wizened old warrior.. burdened by the experience of so many battles.. By the weight of so many kills.. The scene where the ode of respect for him is read.. I honestly was moved nearly to tears.. hearing about all his experiences and the battles that he fought and won.. it makes me appreciate the Klingon culture more and more, No matter how feudal it may seem at first glance

I was surprised to read recently that the guy who played Lerat in this, also played General Martok in DS9 from Season 4 and beyond.

I’m pretty sure the actress at 8:00 playing the main character’s mom is the same woman who played Seska on Voyager (and a few other roles in various incarnations of the franchise), Martha Hackett.

@@lekoman Also, the old guy, Lerat, is played by JG Hertzler, who played General Martok from season 4 of DS9.

Entertaining though LOL

Looks like it is rubber

hah XD a sonic screwdrive that hovers LOL

It was certainly a missed opportunity

to be honest there are many people i would have loved to see in another game, even if they were on only briefly

I'd definitely go with the Cardassian game. Out of all the races in DS9, they were my favorite. And instead of Duakt, we'd need a unwilling buddy adventure with Garek, everyone's favorite tailor, soldier, spy.

I think they would have trouble justifying the money for the game. A star Trek game wouldn't have enough buyers. You would need at least a million units sold, probably more. DS9 was not that popular with the general TV audieence and it was a syndicated show that also would limit viewership and the all-important ratings.

I would love both, particularly the Cardassian one, bot both would be awesome.

not as much as Mortork

Or Kurn

72evenant or Worf, son of Mogh.

He isn't badass. He is just a lunatic!!!!!! Lol

And yet, Gowron let his own ambition outweigh the needs of the empire. Thus Worf planted Bat'leth shards in his gut for it. Glory to the Empire!

@Phoenixesper1 That would have been Hilarious!!! For that first minute there, I thought that either the translator went offline, or once again there was a problem with the holodeck: "Sir, The holo-deck's on the fritz again! The characters turned real!" "Darn! The last time that happened, I got slapped with three paternity suits." -Zap Brannigan 🤣

"Hello!"

THE CAKE IS A LIE!!!

Thumbs up. I don't want to be a human. I want to be a Klingon, and Predator, a Gorn, a Martian but not a human.

My wife is definitely Klingon by nature!

puq

No kidding! Gowron is NOT someone you want to piss off, not unless you WANT to die!

still a better jumpscare than most modern horror movies tho

@@litchtheshinigami8936 Imagine waking up to see two wide Klingon eyes looking down on you.

@@Ragitsu relying on the overall expression i'd either be very scared or ask them what they want. or i'd just laugh because my mum does that wide eyes thing too and since i was a kid it has made me laugh

I'm pretty sure that's the same actor who plays General Martok in DS9.

***** That was John Colicos' last acting spot in Star Trek before he died. His last line was "Long Live the Klingon Empire!" - and he also gave us the bittersweet line "Savour the fruit of life, my young friends. It has a sweet taste when it is fresh from the vine. But don't live too long. The taste turns bitter... after a time." To this day, warriors scream at the end of this episode.

jacobsfoot bIlughchu'. That is indeed J G Hertzler.

@@jacobsfoot it is. J.G Hertzler.

@@jacobsfoot It was indeed.

Lol I didnt notice that.

Do not fear. He waits for you in heaven. Just as Kahless waits in Sto-vo-Kor!

You will see him again in the hallowed halls of Valhalla. It is for families of warriors as well. All who fight a great struggle against hated Foes are welcome at the feasting hall where they will laugh and sing forever.

Right, besides Dax's death the rewriting of Gowron is the biggest stain on the show. He was always an opportunist and a politician but DS9 made him too power-hungry and crazy out of nowhere. His death added nothing to the show, I feel they put it in just to give Martok and Worf a slightly happier ending.

Yeah they did him dirty at the end just to wrap it all up. Same thing happened to Dukat :/

@@en6928 true, Martok would never challenge and strike down his chancellor in a time of war, but Gowron definitely would if his leader was behaving like that

Honorable men can change - ad was the point of DS9- that war may not change but war changes people - even Klingons

@@errantbard937 I do not think so , but I also never had a die hard respect for Gowron

J.G. Hertzler

I have to ask him was this project is when he had the most fun?

Agreed! Still, Boqq /whose actual name is Vok/ was no saint either and was a dishonourable wretch as well so he got what he deserved too in my opinion.

Wow, You guys know your klingons well. Very well.

You have not seen soap operas until you have witnessed them in the original Klingon versions!

“The secret is in a liquid spice they call…woodka!”

Remember Star Trek 6? The last movie to star the original cast?

this is a long shot but , are you playing this on a mac, if so how?

didn't it come with the Klingon language tutor? Or am I remembering another game?

He was hyping himself up hahaha

The only time that Gowron refers to himself by name in all of his Trek appearances.

And yet ST Picard season 3 FAR out Trekked discovery.

First he takes a cautious sip and appears to narrowly avoid alcohol-induced brain damage. Next he just takes the whole bottle and chugs. Klingons.

albertjester Yep, that was straight out of Dune. Nice little homage.

prophetic0311 Oh yes. Houses at war, disputes over land, wheels within wheels ... the Dune influence is unmistakable. :)

The Klingons would destroy the houses of atreidies, harkonnen, and corino.

"You have not experienced 'Long Live The Fighters' until you have read him in the original Klingon."

@@freezetasticvoyage19They would likely side with Atreides. The other two would likely fall before the blades of brave Klingon Warriors! Imagine this the Klingon empire and even possibly the federation and if this was done in the era of Star Trek online the Romulan Republic fighting alongside brave House Atreides, the most honorable House of The Landsraad, versus the evil house Harkonnen and the duplicitous house Corrino! Not much later the Corrino empire falls not long after the defeat of house Harkonnen. Sometime after that the green and black flag of house Atreides is joined by three other new banners a beautiful blue banner with the symbol of the United federation of planets a beautiful red flag with the Klingon trefoil and right next to it a very beautiful green flag with the symbol of the Romulan Republic upon it which I believe is a phoenix clutching two small orbs in it's talons representing the Lost planets of Romulus and Remus and with a large orb cradled in its wings representing Mol'Rihan(or New Romulus)! The flags of the houses of Harkonnen and Corrino are taken down and publicly burned.

They sure are. Or as they say in Klingon. Bendy fruit such Panay banana footpath.

No, you're not wrong

Ok, that wad entertaining.

gibberish in another language hahaha

STD and then Picard killed the franchise..

@@Br1cht Still very much alive for me, because i ignore those 2 abominations, as well as the 3 most recent movies. But all the rest, including the animated series, is something i enjoy all year round.

@@Taiko206 good man.

@@Taiko206 I ignore all the recent stuff because the SJW have killed it and with their nonsense have tried to kill the whole universe.

Then don't regard it as Canon, I don't and regard Star Trek Online as the true canon.

I had and completed both this and the Borg one, without cheating, I even saw the bits where I got stuff wrong on Klingon, quite scary when Gowron is shouting at you for getting it wrong, lol.

"Klingons sure like their songs, don't they?" I actually came here because of the DS9 Season 5 "Soldiers of the Empire" episode that I just recently rewatched. One of the trivia notes on the Amazon stream mentioned that the song they are singing after the Jem'Hadar battle at the end of the episode actually originated from this game, so the producers definitely consider this game as official Star Trek canon ;)

It's weird to see J.G. Hertzler playing a Klingon who isn't Martok, haha.

Star Trek Online is on both Systems now

+Emperor Angelos I wish that they'd make a Cardassian game like this with Dukat too or perhaps a Romulan one with a Romulan character or maybe a Ferengi one with Quark. I imagine Quark would be eager to be a part of a project like that because he'd make a lot of money off of it AND could show that his people aren't nearly as bad as most people think they are.

Or Terminator.

They treated Kor the same way in his final appearance.
