How can you explain this in a way that makes sense? Pic mostly related.

they're dicks who like hunting sapient creatures, but are so good at it they wiped out the rest of the galaxy
so they go around creating sapient species and when they finally get around to being a good sport they'll have a jolly ol' safari

Turns out they were really bored. Humanity isn't even fighting off all the aliens just like, one group of 10 or something controlling an army of bioengineered soldiers and remote operated vehicles.

There are a million ways to do this since the premise is pretty vague

>aliens live for aeons, they made humans so that after a few million years they could come back and hunt them for sport, earth is just a big safari zone created by ayy lmaos, they proceed to crash through our "civilization" (ayy lmao @ ur dumb cities, regards alien) with badass weapons and vehicles because it's fun

>aliens made humans to be experimental cure for some intergalactic disease
>come back
>realize humans are themselves a worse threat than the disease, and that if we gain FTL we'll be an utter cancer on a peaceful space federation and bring the galaxy into a dark age

actually I'm done typing but this is a really easy concept

1. Their culture/religion is all about war and exists to make war, to the point that they make or uplift species just to war with them.

2. They are disappointed with the results of their experiment in uplifting.

3. They didn't make humans on purpose.

4. It was a rogue scientist who did it and now that he has been brought to justice his "experiments" are being destroyed along with all his research material. This one also works with a religious ayy lmao civilization who believes that only the gods should make intelligent life.

5. Or something like pic related. They don't think we're truly "intelligent/advanced" life and so think of us like animals. If we're lucky we'll end up in a zoo or be given a small island as a wildlife preserve.

They made a mistake and are trying to fix the problem.

Or are covering up their tracks cause the galactic counsel is space auditing them and they don't want anyone to know of about their illegal experiments again.

Humans were made as a host organism for one of the ayylmao's parasitic biological weapons.

Something went wrong and infection of the seeded human planet was never completed or ordered. Since then they've advanced to the degree that they could someday possibly be a threat to the ayys, and so must be eliminated now.

Quoted By:

Every 0.X cycles the top galactic civs get together and seed a bunch of worlds with different forms of life.

At the next meeting, they vote on which one they think has adapted best and is best suited to interstellar society, and contact them and invite them on board.

The failures are rendered down and catalogued to inform the research/creation of future forms of life. If the contacted species refuse, same story. This isn't seen as an evil or damaging thing by most people (but some groups do protest it) because the numbers involved are insignificant compared to say, the number of people who die of toaster accidents in the galactic civs each year.

Earth is a prime location to experiment with creating a new sentient species. Ayy lmaos set us on the evolutionary path and fucked off into space. They check up on us and not only did we fail to turn out as expected, we're ruining the planet for the development of future creations. We need to go. The useful few have been collected, and now the rest of us will be culled.

Their observation data kept going over capacity thanks to overpopulation of the control group (humans). We're being culled and reset so their next version grows at a less exponential rate.

When the aliens returned to earth to give us enlightenment we crucified their representative. Three days later his regeneration kicked in and he tried to complete his mission. His superiors decided it was a failure and beamed him back aboard about a month after that. They then ordered the destruction of humanity. *something* happened and those orders were never carried out.

2000 years later the last alien tries desperately to fulfill his mission only to be killed by humans.

Prometheus sucked and none of it made any fucking sense.

Still, there were some neat ideas in there if it didn't just fucking throw a clusterfuck of spooky non sequitur things happening at us and expecting us to figure it out. If the idea was that we aren't supposed to figure it out, it could still have been done better.

Also have the characters not act like fucking idiots that just sort of do things without a rhyme or reason.

Quoted By:

Aliens that are built around having a giant culture shift every few thousand years where they switch from nurturing and uplifting a species to hunting it to extinction. War allows for more people to become great warriors on both sides and when they die their spirit will join the great cycle of reincarnation again in time strengthening it with their vigor and courage.

I loved the Kohr-ah's explanation as to why they eradicate all forms of intelligent beings that aren't them or their sister-race the Kzer-za.

It was a combination of "We eradicate you before you can become a threat to us, we will never be slaves again." and "By destroying all alien life, we make certain that you can only be reborn as Ur-Quan, rejoice, for in your death and rebirth upon this path of now and forever, we will become true siblings."

Prometheus wasn't "confusing" so much as it was "pointless"/unsatisfying.

The only confusing point was why the Progenitor was sleeping in there and why he was capable of immediately starting the ship. Unless the explanation is "the timer on the capsule was busted and they slept through the appointed apocalypse".

>>43364209
>>It was a combination of "We eradicate you before you can become a threat to us, we will never be slaves again."
Sounds fairly understandable.

Humans began poking shit with sticks that shouldn't get poked ever and didn't stop when told to.
