00:02hey hey hey moon crew what's going on today we are playing star trek first contact not the movie
00:09this is actually the 1988 video game made for the apple 2 and dos you know we played the promethean
00:16prophecy which is actually the second of the star trek early adventure games after the kobayashi
00:22alternative which is terrible and arguably rebel whatever the hell rebel galaxy first but those
00:28were all pretty okay and then two years later after promethean prophecy they released first
00:35contact which is arguably also okay i mean it's not the greatest but it doesn't suffer from a lot
00:41of the horrible things that the kobayashi alternative did so either way we're getting it done here we're
00:46doing the star trek games you know we're on this kick so gotta knock it down that's how it is
00:52all right here we go this one's frustrating thing is that the dos version actually runs in real time
01:00so there's like moments where we will be waiting around with our thumbs up our asses for like three
01:08minutes while we wait for the actual real game clock to advance because there's seemingly not
01:13a weight function so get ready excitement away here we go team
01:24you

04:31All right, we made it to the meeting room where we now will wait for, I believe, four minutes.
04:42So, who wants some Star Trek original series factoids?
04:47I got a bag full of these, just a few over here.
04:51Let's see.
04:51Do you know that Kirk or William Shatner's favorite episode was actually Devil in the Dark, which
05:05was the episode where they go encounter the rock creature and they find out it's not actually
05:11an evil monster.
05:12It's just kind of like a living creature like them.
05:15And it's actually the first time that Dr. McCoy uses his catchphrase, dammit, Jim, I'm a doctor,
05:20not a whatever.
05:22So, William Shatner was going through his father's death, I think, at the time.
05:26And it was like, you know, on point for him.
05:30He thought themes were in line with how he was feeling at the time.
05:36Let's see here.
05:37Did you also know that Scotty is actually missing his right middle finger?
05:45He was actually shot off during Normandy during the D-Day beach landings.
05:50He got shot four times in the leg, once in the chest, which got deflected by a silver bullet
05:56case, or silver cigarette case, and lost his middle finger.
06:01So, they mostly kept it out of sight and out of mind, but there are a few scenes even in
06:07the movies, like the third movie especially, where you can see it.
06:49So, it was like, if you don't know what the thing is about, what the thing is about when he
06:50thinks
06:52Kirk and Spock are the only characters to have appeared in every single episode of Star Trek
06:57the original series although if you really are counting the original series pilot episode was
07:03actually with a different captain captain pike not captain Kirk so technically Spock was there
07:10for everything and Kirk wasn't oh but that stings
07:46did you know that
07:50most of the original series sets were like big styrofoam containers they just kind of painted
07:58gray and Bones's medical instruments were just kind of fancy salt shakers
08:06which is kind of wild they really made use of everything back in the day
08:11no CGI you know what I mean
