I think perhaps the problem is companies used to be run by nerds in the early days of gaming, so games like EGA Trek and Judgement Rites and Starfleet Academy and A Final Unity and Klingon Honor Guard used to be ridiculously faithful, because the people programming them were familiar with Trek. It's amazing how few good games are made for Star Trek, Star Wars and even Warhammer 40,000 these days, considering their unbelievable depth and interest as settings (not to mention their enduring popularity). Have missions like sabotaging Klingon shipyards, defending a Federation colony, infiltrating a Klingon outpost, etc. It wouldn't be too hard to adapt DSC's Klingon War into a first person shooter. When the designers decided to bring back the Preservers/The Progenitor species from the TNG episode "The Chase" and in particular the Iconians, something they had been talking about in various interviews even before Star Trek Online came out I could not help but feel that that plot sounded really like something from Stargate SG-1.Ĭlick to expand.Same here.


Mind you, I would not object if it would be revealed that the Borg Collective was accidentally created by the Preservers/Progenitors if written well. (or how Online writers wrote how the Sphere Builders were originally from the known universe)īy wanting to connect everything it makes the Star Trek Universe feel really small. I also did not like how the aliens from the TNG episode "Schisms" and the aliens from ENT "Silent Enemy" were retconned as being servitor species that serve the Iconians in various roles. Or how the conflict was eventually resolved through an elaborate time travel plot.
