Either way works for me. Better than the options currently available on planet Earth at this point in history.
Furthermore, any civilization able to have matter reassembly and wormhole travel available as convenient means of travel will be amazing to experience and live in.
Beam me up, Scotty!
I looked around today as well and concur that specific vessel isn’t in the game. However, you might find some others appealing. For example, the 32nd century vessels have a similar feel to them as massive mobile space stations.
If you want something smaller but not the “typical” Star Trek ship (i.e. SF, Rom, Klingon), you might take a look at the Husnock.
I had similar thoughts, especially since the main game has been out for a while. I’ve played the main game multiple times, 100% it, helped others play it, and I’ve even done speedruns in various difficulties just to see how long the “core” story would take.
Does that mean the DLC will scale for me due to my 100%-ing? Will it be based on my various difficulty settings? Will it be my most recent playthrough? We shall see. In the end, it’ll be interesting to see what they do with the story; the main game’s story was a little odd for me in one particular case since Indiana Jones
encountered Noah’s Ark
in the novels at an earlier stage of his life.
It made me smile thinking of how amazing it must have felt for Celia to say the lines about the inspiration from a TV show (i.e. “The Last Frontier”… meaning, Star Trek), considering how much of an inspiration Nichelle’s Uhura was for her (Celia) and her career.
Groundhog Day
Did they quietly change the way Endeavor XP is handled? I thought the XP spanned the account, but it appears to be character-specific.
I thought I remembered it being shared across the whole account, so you could easily hop characters to finish the tasks as needed.
I watched this the other day and loved it. (Also, I have all of the Klingon books mentioned in this video.)
It’s also possible that “Nova Squadron” is just one of many (as Value Subtracted mentions herein) and that there are many other Nova Squadrons without any issues in the intermittent years between the incidents. It’s possible that, like most things in the Star Trek universe, we only see the times when something interesting/dramatic occurs, not the boring day-to-day.
Said another way, just because you periodically have a rowdy graduating class from primary/secondary education, doesn’t mean you stop having graduating students.
I would think that any object (including the ship) is traveling at a sub-light speed within the warp bubble and therefore would only keep that same velocity when (catastrophically) exiting the warp bubble. Unless by exiting the warp bubble in an uncontrolled manner creates some other force which slows the object somehow.
My understanding is that the warp bubble is moving space around the object (including the ship) rather than accelerating the object to FTL (faster-than-light) speeds, thus we really only have to consider the relative velocities within the warp bubble.
Edit to add: Oh, also, I should add that (IMO) the object cannot continue to travel at FTL speed since it has no warp drive of its own to maintain the warp field.
I second many of your points. And, also…
“the purple D”
Had me immediately thinking, “Well, STO vanity shields are canon now, I guess.”
The mugato was an excellent choice!
The intent behind my original reply was to complain and hope for a change in how dark recent Trek shows have been, except SNW. I know we all have our favorites; I’m just not at all a fan of this trend of the bad guys being cool in Star Trek. Again, in Star Trek. The casts, the acting, the production are all great and I’m glad more Trek exists; I, personally, just wish it was a bit more shiny.
Do I want those shows not to exist in the first place? No. I just don’t rewatch them like I do others, thus I don’t care to make pumpkins about starring characters who are not the characters I’d want in humanity’s future.
That’s great! My original en-edited reply congratulated you, but then I thought, “This is the internet. Burrito Trucks can’t carve pumpkins…” LOL
My favorite is the Mugato.
Fair point and well done (to the artists)!!
How about we carve a Spock or Picard or Mariner or really anyone else who isn’t a genocidal dictator? Hmm? Maybe?
No? Perhaps my dream for Star Trek has too much hope for humanity’s future? Not enough grit, tears, and flashy booms?
I wonder if the “14th” is a typo and/or if the “21st” will be kept as the end date, considering this was posted today (2024 Oct 17).
Agreed. I would have loved to have that kind of callback to the story.
That was a lot of fun to watch. Thanks for providing the links to the various segments!

That’s why I call the Kelvin timeline “Star Trek 90210” and write it out of my head-canon.
Jar-Jar Abrams did not make real Star Trek (nor real Star Wars, IMO). (Didn’t Abrams even say in an interview that he’d never watched Trek?) Star Trek 90210 was a fun fan fic to get people interested in “real” Star Trek.
