I tired to get into it but it felt even more simplified than SFC3. Maybe it plays different at high levels. I started through the first few missions of the klingon campaign and got bored after the star trek novelty wore off.

Yeah, you'd need to get to somewhere around lvl 30 before you can realistically start to choose what you want to do, more than 80% of the content is designed for maxleveled captains to get better stuff for their ships or ground crew. Or grind for a new ship. This includes several of the current episodes, since you should hit level gap around 2/3 of the federation "campaign".

Basically the leveling system at this point is a glorified tutorial, and the last completely new thing that unlocks is the admirality system for managing your own personal fleet, which opens at 50 or so. However, unlike other MMORPGs this takes about a week per character, not two months and some races like Jem'hadar start near the level gap to begin with.

Seems like. Solution is obviously just to find Sisko and get him to punch q in the face until he undoes it.

They probably won't go with that though. :(

Actually, this Q is the one who got lean and angry and kicked Sisko's rear end in the ascendaverse octagon; now he's taking no poo poo from no mortals, he's splitting world-lines at a whim to gently caress your head up

What people miss about that scene is that Q enjoyed the fact that he was punched in the face. After he protested that Picard never hit him, and Sisko answered that he wasn't Picard, Q got this evil smirk and said, "No, you're much easier to provoke " before vanishing, looking a lot like a kitten who was happy he just found a new mouse to play with.

Sisko would be more annoying for Q to deal with, what with him being part Prophet and everything, especially when you consider that he apparently has trouble with Guinan.

Q spends all this time coming up with ways to gently caress with Sisko and Sisko just quietly deals with it off-screen, where it belongs, there's more important things to be done, there's a goddamn war!

I could be down for a whole season in the mirror universe but it looks like it's just going to be one episode.

This is like, one of the things a bigger budget could really expand since all the other Trek's mirror universe episodes were just "It's the same cast wearing mustaches/eye patches/leather on the same sets". Hell yeah I wanna see what fascist hellscape earth with Picard as the Emporer is like. Those were the fun episodes of Discovery.

I mean, it would have been better if it turns out that season 1 was actually mirror universe, which would explain why the federation was all fascist and lovely. And that was a big reveal at the end.

Enterprise and DS9 had the best use for the Mirror Universe; A chance for the actors to go ham playing villainous and duplicitous versions of their characters. It's not really a format you're supposed to take seriously like Disco tries to.

I think there are two good episodes of Disco.

The Mudd one, and there's one where they go to some nature planet that actually kinda feels like an old episode of Trek.

I legit enjoyed the short trek set on an empty disco in the future with some neat sentient AI.

basically disco is better the more of the cast they remove.

Discovery's technobabble, especially everything in season two regarding the red angel makes 100% of Voyager's technobabble sound like loving hard as nails sci Fi.

The ones around Bajor were, but Bajor was the rear end end of the quadrant weeks away from earth. Destabilizing things there might not have had much effect anywhere else. It's all a bit tricky because the terrans winning wouldn't necessarily make things better. Terrans are dicks.

If the comics are canon, Worf had been a slave on the Enterprise a few years earlier. The terran empire had fallen, but there were still terran empire ships running around and Emperor Spock was still alive.
