@HuckjustaIf I recall from the lore, the Grox were the first intelligent species. They built the cybernetic parts to make up for how rushed their evolution is. This also allows them to live on planets normally uninhabitable by other creatures. They guard the staff of life because if it was in anyone else’s hands, they would lose their empire.
They were originally a peaceful species called the “grob”. they were constantly attacked and under threat of being wiped out by other civilizations. In the end, they had to roboticize themselves more and more just to survive. But the further it went the more corrupted their minds became until they became… this.
I still remember how intense the staredown was when I first talked to the grox on a new save after years past the last time I played this game. "Identify." "Call off your fighter before I blast it into pieces." "Your threats mean nothing." (Immediate war declaration)
@@UncIe-BenThat’s still nothing, they have over a thousand colonies. They also like planet busters since they like it when players break the galactic code.
The happy clips can actually play in game, though it takes some work to make it happen. You can play them by trading with the grox, but usually this is impossible. However, if you start a new save, and the very first empire you contact is the grox, the game will for some reason allow trading with them. You now can trade with the grox on all saves if your relationship with them is high enough. They have the same inventory the player's empire does: Every unlocked item, but twice as expensive.
I love it when they do a really high pitched tone and goes to the equivalent of 6 year old me acting like batman at 0:55 Edit: On x2 speed it sounds chaos
I like how I can wipe out entire grox fleets attacking my planet before they even touch one of my colonies but my empire acts like it was an awful war when we didn't suffer a single casualty.
When i fought the grox My empire was an economic nation and i pretty much did whatever i wanted becausee i literally bribed most of other empires into peace, but the grox did not want my money, that was what scared me And convinced me they were comunist
Idk if this is canon or not, we will likely never know, but I heard a phrase appear twice in the angry ones; “Florparp s’aa pruul” (1:51 and 2:19). If I had to guess it is an insult of sorts either toward others in general or organic creatures.
When the Grox are happy I get... unsettled. Not just because of the sounds and animations but also, what would make a Grox that happy? Not good things lol. Also the lighting coming from below is a really nice way to set them apart from all the other races, making it creepy and different. Also the use of parts that are completely unavailable to the player.
I tried transcribing the Grox's "words" into text form for fun. Might continue this, currently I only have the Neutral responses transcribed. "Sibidi ibi z'basi znapi. Naepi zapi nor? Naengers. Buegga ti diga ti dow? Ah- (garbled) -pti." "Warning! Balatzia! Dor par za-uh-oah! Bizida borfine za-dnn-ahh. Boingda! Warnding-ooh-wiza?" "Zoi-z-zoing?! Ading warwa- nnh basahaaaah. Na borsa?

I traded with Grox, that's what I did in this video. They'll become happy everytime we sell or buy stuffs. You can also complete one of Grox mission that requires you to destroy or capture all cities on another empire's planet, once you return, Grox will happily reward you. There's a video about how to trade with Grox without mods if you wonder.
It requires some special manipulations to make friends with Grox. Complete their tasks(never fail or they will become extremely mad and decrease your relationship), Shoot their cities with happiness lasers, Give gifts, Put relationship improving devices on their planets(you will need to bring multiple, as they quickly destroy them), Destroy nearby planets(not populated by Grox) with planet detonators(Grox are the only alien species that improve their relationship with you if you destroy planets).
@@andreiscutaru4647 if your species is Scientist in the space phase use Gravitation Wave on empires near Grox, if your species is Fanatic, use Fanatical Frenzy on empires near Grox. Or obtain Conqueror 5 and/or Colonist 5 badge and buy Planet Buster, again use it on empire planets near Grox.
If you do the bug where you can trade with the grox you'll hear their happy sounds more How to do it. Get a new space stage planet, and make it so the first alien species you encounter are the Grox. It will say for trading "improve relationships" instead of "cannot trade". Then every single save you will ever have will be capable of trading, assuming you get the grox to neutral and higher relationships What do they sell? Everything, but at the same prices as your colonies, except for planet busters, which are 1 million sporebucks more expensive

i like how the grox twitches way more than normal when its happy. As if it isnt supposed to happen
Since they are a cyborg. Half of their body wants to feel and the other wants to be.. You know... The grox
And also their voice glitches to.
From the looks of things, it just glitches if they strain themselves too much
notice how distorted the voice is when grox is angry, which means any strong emotion can glitch their robot half
I figure they must be in constant agony trapped in their robotic prisons. Filled with hate, rage, and disgust at everything.
I love how sometimes the grox completly shuts down then starts up again
*windows startup noise*
*FAAYYYEEEE*
Just like me frr
i cant tell if these guys are adorable or terrifying but god i love its voice so much
they are adorable yes
same
Any empire with 2.000 hp ships is terrifying to me.
They litterally act as if they didn’t like or care about you when you break alliance with them
Yes. The answer is yes.
Notice how when their happy their speech glitches a lot. Almost like that wasn’t part of their programming.
