Bloody Pom posted:On the subject of the holodeck, I liked the VOY episode that revealed Tuvok had created a custom simulation where he could murder Neelix with impunity as a form of stress relief. This is the first thing I've heard about Voyager that makes me at all interested in watching it. Are you going to make me really keep watching after DS9? I have no idea who these characters are but this plot sounds different enough to be fun.

VOY is a handful of gems in a sea of mediocrity and poo poo, it's the only Trek series I'd recommend finding a watch list for.

See the problem with Voyager is you could just skip all of it and basically miss nothing from trek

Nearly Every Episode of Voyager Tuvok: "Captain, our sensors have detected [problem]" Possibly an antagonist or the Borg or a natural phenomenon or space road construction: "We demand your attention!" Janeway: "Well I demand coffee" Chakotay / Kes: "We could try reasonable-sounding but desperate solution #1" Torres / Seven of Nine: "I'm in favor of less-reasonable but more practical solution #2" Paris: "I could fly a shuttlecraft" Kim: "The writers forgot to give me anything to do but don't want to write me out because a magazine called me one of the 50 sexiest men alive." Kim: "Uhh..." Kim: "Shields at 24%?" Possibly the Borg Queen: "Captain, would you like to come hang out at my house later?" Janeway: "You're all wrong, we'll do secret perfect solution #3 that no one has referenced but allows us to keep the moral high ground. Captain's prerogative." Possibly an antagonist or the Borg or a natural phenomenon or space road construction: "We are undone!" Neelix: "And I'm here too!"

The year of hell could have been good in VOY if it wasn't ret-conned out by...what was it, time travel again?

Half-wit posted:The year of hell could have been good in VOY if it wasn't ret-conned out by...what was it, time travel again? There are points in Voyager where you can see the things that made Ronald D. Moore angry enough to make BSG basically just to show that Voyager could have been good if they actually believed in their premise. That was one of them.

Splicer posted:"Guy who knows the area" is kind of pointless for a show about traveling very fast in a straight line for 7- years, but "outside context guy" who sometimes saves the day by doing things the way the federation doesn't is very good. Kes was two when she met Neelix. Could only have been six when she left Voyager to become a floating space cloud in the fourth season.

There is a special attachment that cuts the sides off once the paper is loaded but before the print happens. Edit - even though it was continuous feed printing. It’s what the Cylons evolved from, and its vary pointless existence lead to them questioning the wisdom of their creator masters and rebelling. jeeves fucked around with this message at 22:23 on Sep 11, 2022 |

Mind, there are plenty enough glitches to make that rumor plausible. For example, aliens can't use melee weapons. jeeves posted:There is a special attachment that cuts the sides off once the paper is loaded but before the print happens.

"wow what if took away your nice shiny TIE that was able to actually dodge a laser and gave you a mini-shuttle with the turning radius of a blue whale that we farted out in a week" also gently caress the TIE bomber too all my homies hate the TIE bomber.

Putting the 2 different gunboats in TIE was so dumb. It's like someone who hated the TIE's and really wanted to fly an x-wing again made that decision. Medium slow, medium well armed, big hit point, badly handling sack of bullshit is the opposite of what you come to TIE's for
