Does anybody else using the mac version have a shitload of crashes since S9? Even on minimum settings I'm crashing.

I don't know if this means anything but I'm running it on Mint and it's been on the Legacy of Romulans loading screen for ages.

For everyone coming back after a long hiatus take note that the base level of excitement related to this game is so low that the above passes for drama, excitement, and entertainment. We really should all quit and take up wood carving or something.

"Some Trek radio DJ said "gently caress AL" on their convention livestream, not knowing the mic was on(referring to Gecko -- they were pissed Priority One got a shout out and not them) and I blew it out of proportion on the forums"

That is the peak of fun to be had in STO. loving think about how lame that paragraph is and how lame that means the actual game is. Anyone that ever had an STO account should feel at least a twinge of embarrassment and shame for having a connection to any of this.

And yet this is still more entertaining to read about than "serious" video games I would actually have to pay money to play.

Eh, okay. While I didn't really care for DS9 as a series, it was head and shoulders above what came afterward. When the original actor for Janeway quit, they claimed she hadn't realized the rigors of episodic filming. I think it was the apparent lack of a series bible and the whiplash of characterization from episode to episode that made her decide her integrity was worth more than the paycheque.

It's more likely because she was loving terrible and managed to suck whatever limited energy there was out of every scene she was in, seriously if you don't believe me go find the footage on youtube it's rank as hell

There are around a dozen or so really solid episodes of Voyager. Problem is the show was crapping out over 20 episodes a season for 7 years, so that's bad. Even worse when there were consistently whole blocks of awesome DS9 episodes made at or around the same time before they hit even a mediocre one.

It's a shame because there's a lot of love in the game (I appreciate how the warp core icons represent cores from the various shows and movies, for example) and a lot of legit improvements over the years like the "new" old Spacedock.

Why can't there just be a solid space game with enough of an online component to gently caress with idiots that take it all too seriously in? Seems like everything's either hopelessly mismanaged shlock or vapourware with a cult following
