/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!

Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.

~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.

~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.

~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.

~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.

~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.

~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.

~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'

~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.

Fun will now commence.

I assume that L1+L2+R1+R2 is also always an option - to eject the warp core.

I'm pretty sure you need your first officer to hold Up + A on the second controller too.

It's pretty good! Between it and 1995's Star Trek: The Next Generation - A Final Unity, I'd say adventure games are the perfect fit for Trek-style stories. The Telltale formula is a little on rails sometimes, and a lot of the actual gameplay is silly little tricorder puzzles, but it's basically an engine to provide you with classic, "You need to make a snap decision, who's plan are you going with?" moments like these.

I enjoyed my time with resurgence. I can't see non-trekkies enjoying it because TBH, the controls, combat, and mini-games are all frustratingly awful. However, the story, characters, and choices were all great! I was slightly disappointed overall though. I was hoping it would be unequivocally great and demonstrate a market for more Trek games, but it's clearly lacking in some areas and didn't have much impact upon release.

[–] FlatFootFox@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Same. I know being an Epic Games Store exclusive gives you a lot of runway during your development period, but that probably didn't help them when it came to going viral post-launch. Still, if you're up for having two digital libraries, it's an easy pickup with all those holiday coupons they toss around.

[–] Doublepluskirk@startrek.website 4 points 11 months ago

Right, I forgot it was epic exclusive on PC. That definitely will not have helped. I played it on console and it definitely suits a relaxed TV playing experience, like playing an episode.

4th Option:

Assert Dominance by swivilling the chair, pushing Data out of it and performing the Riker Sit Maneuver.

While broadcasting all of this via video on an open channel.

I want Resurgance so bad! I am jelly.

...the screams of the innocent unexpecting crew members haunt your dreams.

[–] pleb_maximus@feddit.de 2 points 11 months ago

Good thing that there is suddenly no air and thus no screams that could haunt your dreams.

The scene's surprisingly dark, and I had to futz with some of the contrast to make it read as, "That one part of Cause and Effect where Fraiser's ship is headed towards the Enterprise."

[–] kellyaster@kbin.social 1 points 11 months ago

Ah, that explains the slight graininess. You did a good job, the ship is clearly visible. And I'm now just realizing it's the Boseman, hah

[–] gregorum@lemm.ee 1 points 11 months ago

Yeah, they screwed this one up

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 1 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (1 children)

I want a Star Trek souls-like. That would be dope. You get to dodge and stuff, but you have to just use diplomacy to make everything stop trying to kill you.

[–] Infynis@midwest.social 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

You can have one attack: the double-fist punch

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 0 points 11 months ago

It's extremely slow and doesn't look like it hurts.
