"MINDSCAPE" Part 2
Admiral Tuvok has located the source of Eric Cooper's telepathic attacks and discovered the Northwest Passage is open once again to Species 8472.
We're to travel there, discover where Cooper is hiding and end the threat he poses, maybe the Undine invasion in full.
We're going back into Fluidic Space

"We appear to have caught them with their pants down and their... bioship exposed."
You went there. You magnificent bastard, you went there! :D
"I'm finding my earlier reluctance somewhat diminished." amazing
"YOU SHALL BE REPURPOSED!" when the ship IS the captain.
"the only door remains... clenched..."
passage denied... journey impeded...spin again
reminds me of the Flood!
You could start all episodes saying "Captain' s personal log, Stardate...."
Would be kinda cool
April fourteenth......Point Two
“Access the ganglia, admiral. The target is behind this sphincter.”
1:14 ; This may be a little late but I just notice that for a brief moment there is the silhouette of an Iconian.
a cameo no less
"Relaxing its hold" lol!!
Lol caught the undine with their pants down and bioship exposed. Love it 😂
Great episode the Undine are fun to fight. I like the Undine, races like the Blue Gil and Founders can't manipulate them like they can others and the Iconians have to use a indirect method. Which shows the Iconians are to afraid of them to deal with them directly.
I love the really alien vibes I get from Species 8472, the inside of that brain ship looks very cool, and more truly alien than anything else in star trek (that I can immediately think of).
TNG had the Tin Man, but only one episode. That's the only one I can recall the name but there were a few very alien, but again, singular episodes. These extremely alien elements should have been woven into the universe rather than just as chapters which end the thread.
@@aquariandawn4750 I did also really enjoy the tin man episode for the same reason, especially where the characters begin to understand this creature that is very unlike most others. It would've been really interesting to see how groups of Tin Men (to use the given name) behave, although that would've taken some gravitas out of the episode, seen as Gomtu being the last of their kind was a plot point if I remember correctly.
Definitely agree that things that alien should've been a more present factor in star trek.
@@tepacana6319 the Tholians are a race that was treated like a cameo appearance.
@@aquariandawn4750 yeah, it's a shame.
Did we just watch the Undine ally with the Alpha Alliance against the Iconians? Awesome.
I love your play throughs, keep up the good work.
Thank you greatly for doing this series for those of us that cannot progress in this game due my inability to comprehend space combat.
Part of the ship; part of the crew.
I loved this mission peronsally... and I thought after that hard fight and all the crap Couper puts you thru in the story seeing him get... desolved into the ship he was very much -using- is just a perfect end. Couldn't happen to a nicer whiney dooshe. Watching the back and forth between Tuvok and the Bio-Dreadnaught ending with the line "THE MANY MUST SURVIVE!" "wE DoNt NeEd ThEm!" "YOU ARE WEAK, TOGETHER WE ARE STRONG...YOU SHALL BE REPURPOSED!" Just a satisfying moment.
Ok.. Just found your channel... and just binge watched the STO library!!
You Sir, have yourself a Subscriber! Please keep up the great work with the STOSS, I have been a lifetime member since beta, but have forgotten so much of STO earlier stories and just really don't have the time to replay them all again, so its great to listen in and remember them..
Having been a loyal subscriber to your channel for quite some time now, I stumbled upon the STOSS only recently. While I've never been much of a gamer, my passion for all things Star Trek led me to eagerly seek out anything that enriches the Trek universe, whether it's Alpha or Beta Canon material. Your STOSS immediately captivated me, and I find myself immersed in a binge-watching session at the moment. I simply had to take a moment to express my appreciation for your incredible videos! They've not only provided me with endless entertainment but also deepened my understanding of the STO storyline, for which I'm truly grateful. Keep up the fantastic work!
4:53 fluidic seepage in deep space?....EEEEEWWWWWWWW!!!!!!
Gotta correct ya. The Northwest Passage was originally a theoretical waterway that explorers and traders hoped would allow them to cut through North America. American explorers, Lewis and Clark, hoped that the Missouri River would prove to be it, but ultimately the theory of a Northwest Passage was disproven.
Although sailing through Arctic and Antarctic waters allows ships to sail from the Atlantic to Pacific Oceans it doesn’t serve the same purpose as a NW Passage would since those routes are either incredibly roundabout and/or dangerous.
The Panama Canal could be classified as a sort of NW Passage, but it lacks the vast trading opportunities that people hoped a route through the North American mainland would provide.
That was rather epic. "YOU. ARE. WEEK."
"Most far-flung ambassador"... Oh no, the Talaxian!
Oh yes, The TALAXIAN.
Yay,the Armiger is back
*Armager
A very satisfying conclusion.Are there any more planned?
From the ending narration, Neelix is about to make an appearance.
@@Janoha17 I hope so!My friend is an actor and wants to be involved in the series!
I stopped playing STO a few years ago but I look forward to each week's adventures
As did I when it started to get very laggy
Since lock down iv returned and honestly for me I take this as canon Star Trek online
Excellent, as always! Looking forward to the next one!
Only drawback to this level was that, because this is an online game and you respawn after getting killed, I couldn't shout, "Game over, man!" But at least I could shout, "They're comin' out of the walls, man; they're comin' out of the GODDAMN WALLS!"
Enjoying the journey through STO. Just wondering if you have done a video going over the configuration of your ship, it seems pretty badass
In my opinion the greatest ending in all of sto
I wish we could properly explore Fluidic Space. I don't believe the Undine are the only species present in all of that, and the strange coral "planets" are fascinating. It's like a liquid version of Xen from Half-Life.
Just a quick question, are you gonna do the DSC storyline as an AoD character or this character when you get to it?
Yes…board the ship via sphincter …
let's not dwell on that one for very long shall we
To paraphrase: "This ship needs an enema!"
0:10 me and my boy Tuvoc, straight staring at a blank screen.
spies are just so sneaky...Starfleet really needs to do something about them
There's a reason why spies are usually shot out-of-hand.
I wish we could call Undine ships as Allies so we can have some cool summonable support.
now the Undine are allies? geez, the Iconians are that fearsome
Mark and Tvock.... that's pretty epic.
Reminds me of that episode of Futurama. The worms in Frye. Lol pelvic spastic ganglion. 😂😂😂
Thanks so much for sharing these. Can you confirm that the music in this was all written by people,at bensound and purple planet, etc..speciifaallyt the oiece called Chariots of War I'm,curious to know who wrote it..and the rest of the music too..thanks again
The undine bad guy sounds like an angry 80s movie teenager. Like, the kid with the orange hair from Terminator 2.
C'mon, you all know who I'm talking about. XD
Northwest Passage.. Unleash the Archers
Surak is the oldest katra anyone's ever met, right? But there must have been thousands of generations of Vulcans before him for them to have gotten to the point as a society where they had space-capable ships and nuclear weapons. What happened to the katras of those thousands of generations? And if Vulcans had telepathy before the time of Surak, why was it so easy for them to glass each other instead of mind melding to work out solutions in an honest and open way?
So, what if Vulcan telepathy and katras are not actually naturally evolved traits? We know that they had a massive amount of technology at the point when they glassed their planet. What if when the survivors descended into the bunkers and caves to escape the radioactive fallout, while some people like Surak were off developing his philosophy of logic, other survivors decided to create a tool that would allow them to read each other's minds to prevent them from wasting their limited resources on more war? Or alternatively, maybe it was a bioweapon, a form of nanotechnology that was supposed to destabilize the minds of those who were infected and cause insanity and death. Or maybe it was a piece of military technology developed by one of the pre-war factions to aid their spies or soldiers.
This would also explain why not all Romulans and Remans have mental powers---maybe not everyone was infected with the nano-tech before the Sundering.
Why did Cooper want to destroy the Alpha Quadrant races? He probably watched THRESHOLD. I know if I had to watch that episode, I'd want to destroy Starfleet as well.
it was in the script...DUH!!!!!
Cooper sounds like Clarion in Young Justice.
I was going to comment the same thing.
This is better than Netflix
Looks like you need a squad of ultimate badasses.
Logic for the win!! United!! Together !! We are Strong!!!!
Ah, yes another great episode thanks to Rick..
I alway die alot during this mission or get "knocked unconscious".
STO seems to make the Undine the Tyranids of the ST franchise.
Ah yes, the next chapter...the vadwaaur are not a problem inded...100% garantied, without any dificulty what so ever
Northwest passage? Never send in the USS Erebus or IKS Terror then.
I can't believe Cooper was wearing metal and cables connected to his head. Isn't that technology? And here I thought the Undine did everything in organic??
I hate commentary. But you sir I love.😘🥰🧡😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I hate those wave form puzzles.
Ok I hope watching you do this helps me beat it. I cant get the mind ship destroyed before it heals.
Huh. Dyson Sphere arc intro for Delta Quadrant arc?
and then there was no attempt to have the undine help against the iconians
Ah, yes, the USS Voyager, or as I like to call it, the USS Squish-terprise.
Awesome video. :-D
Coopers dialogue is still like a comicbook villain...
How would he know of the Zindi attack? It was all undone when Archer ended the temporal cold war.
It seems not, since a Xindi did refer to those events in a previous episode, so it seems it wasn't 100% undone.
In truth, the Zindi attack was not undone. If it was. Show like Discovery would not exist. As it turns out. The show of Discovery takes place in the Prime Timeline. Not the Kelvin Timeline.
As the attack had a very profound impact on how Humanity and the Federation handles outward threats. And even going so far as to cover up events like Time Travel and the Mirror Universe. Even going so far as to have other captains like Kirk experience them and make them known and new. Though in secret. The Federation knew all along.
Now you can argue how does that add up to the TOS series? Well, it can. As the topics of the Zindi was never brought up. The Klingon Cold War was still very warm. And Kirk was exploring parts of space. The Federation never been. All the while keeping a close eye on the Neutral Zone along the Romulan Border and the Klingon Border.
Zindi for the most part of the TNG era were semi-forgotten about. As the Zindi had to redevelop their Warp Technology. As their area of space had changed and their old warp technology was useless. Plus they kind of kept to themselves after events of the Enterprise series as a peace was found and apologizes were given.
Soon to the events of STO. The Zindi had slowly made a return to the known galaxy. Even having trade deals with the Federation.
As a long time has passed since the attack on Earth by the Zindi. And generations had passed. It was time to start a new.
After all. If you believe the who show of Enterprise was just some work of dramatizing history fiction. You clearly should know the Kelvin Timeline should not have happened. It should have been prevented. Yet it did and makes you wonder. What is the point of having Time Police Agents. And they allow a whole timeline to happen?
The Temporal Agency has failed in its job a billion times. And I can point at Kathryn Janeway for all of this. As a future her brought technology from the future and fucked up the timeline. Yet I guess giving the Borg Queen the finger and fucking up the Borg Collective. Was maybe a good thing. Even bringing back Voyager a tad sooner than what History had written.
Even giving Starfleet a better technology advance it needed to protect the Federation. So I guess it was a justified Time Travel?
Though I guess if Sisko could get away with getting a living autograph of James T. Kirk in an accidental time travel. I believe the the Temporal Agency is corrupt as hell. Though I too would do the same thing. Hang it up on my wall and everything.
The Xindi were pawns in the Temporal Cold War. The Sphere-Builders threat was in the present, and the Xindi Sphere was destroyed. Archer ended the Temporal Cold War when he blew up the time conduit made by the Nazi aliens.
@@Janoha17 Still, does not mean the attack on Earth never happened. It still happens and the Sphere Builders did the damage they wanted. Changed the course of history. May have not been a favorable outcome but the changes were done.
The Xindi attack and many aspects of the Temporal cold war may be self-completing time loops rather a temporal branch off like the Kelvin and Mirror Universes.
This video should have been called innuendo
I love your videos, every time one of this episoded ends, i just can't wait for the other.
I think that Starfleet allied with Species 8472 would be absolutely over-powered, #RIP Borg.
Works on USS Georgia are proceding, sketches are basically done; in the next weeks i'll put her on AutoCAD, were i can work better on her.
As i said, she's going to have both standard (although more advanced) Warp Drive for the standard exploration as well as Quantum Slipstream Drive. The deflector deflector dish pays a little homage to my favourite superhero: Iron Man (RIP Tony Stark), in the fact that it's triangular (ua-cam.com/video/y0brSA1cyzw/v-deo.html). She has 10 torpedo launchers (6 forward and 4 aft; six are dedicated to photon torps (4 forward 2 aft) and the rest for quantum torps (2 forward 2 aft). And one more thing, she's BIG, measuring roughly 1700m in lenght, 600m in width and 180m in height (nacelles excluded).
A quick question do you level up as you play I haven t played this amazing game yet working on getting a good gaming PC or laptop but thinking on the attack power and upgrade system.
Yep. Along with progressing through the Story Missions, there are many other ways to help you with the progression including times where you'll get a boost to your XP progression through events and whatnot.
@@goldenknight578 does STO have microtransactions, and if so, can you be productive in the game with minimal real cash?
@@aquariandawn4750 Yes to both. I was an F2P player for somewhere around 3-4 years before deciding to get a lifetime sub, and I didn't spend a dime during that time. You're guaranteed at least 3 free T6 ships a year, and I see players using them all the time so they obviously don't suck that much.
@@goldenknight578 nice to know. Star Trek cellphone games are pure money grabs. I never minded game costs when it was a flat price, but microtransactions never stop.
I don't know why.... but I suddenly have the urge to take a shower after being on that Bio Ship
I loved it.... I have a list of people that should be considered for repurposing
BIG BRAIN SHIP
Itty-bitty living space.
I can never see this ship as being not upside down.
did it occur to you that you have the same rank as tuvok?
i would be really happy if this trail of tears nomenclature with "northwest passage" would just get retired. its sad that canada and the usa dont view genocide as racism.
give em 3 naquadriah bombs (stargate sg-1 ) and they are toast
Does anyone know the ship class of the Armager?
Can we have this ship? Please? The closest Bioship we have is the Hurq.
The Bioship for Undine is a bundle ship with other Delta quadrant ships and they added the Cnidarian defender.
Why does that ship look so creepy?
WHAT CLASS OS STARSHIP IS THIS?
Why does this thing remind me of v'ger?
Does undines even have pants?
You will be repurposed.
...repackaged and given new opportunities to explore alternate employment venues in uncharted regions of the quadrant...you best start packing now...your ship leaves in less than an hour...toodles and take those tribbles with you
That was a bit anticlimactic.
most things in my life are....
guess i really didn't need to share that one
What? We just witnessed the Federation turn the Undine from enemies into allies against the Iconians. Thats awesome!
@@mrXOwarrior Isn't the first time 8472 have done so either. And the only reason they attacked us in the first place was the Iconians making it look like we were attacking them. And 8472 would've noticed how much we'd suffered at the hands of the Iconians as well, what with the Destruction of Romulus, all the Elachi attacks, and so on.
I'm pretty sad I can't defeat Connor's ship so I had to skip that whole mission :(.
