Sodomy Hussein posted:This situation is spurred on by the Federation again spying on pre-warp cultures using infiltrators (wildly breaking the Prime Directive) and initiating a comedy of errors, because it's impossible to write a story where the Prime Directive works as advertised. Isn't Quarks big arc that he does slowly adopt Federation ideals, in fact most of his family become true believers of Federation ethics and morality with Rom becoming leader of the whole Alliance at the end. And the Klingons eventually lose their warrior race shtick and join the Federation by the 25th century according to Daniels. Regardless, influence on a stone age civ would be very different than to an advanced spacefaring one.

jng2058 posted:There's a goofy series of books that covers this very idea. It's post Dominion War, and Martok gets a bunch of captains together and sends 'em out the borders of the Empire, notably on the other side away from the Feds, to seek out new life, and new civilizations, and kick the poo poo out of 'em and conquer them for the Empire! I lost interest after the first book in part because the author insisted on taking nearly every Klingon with a name and a bit part in TNG and DS9 and putting them on the SAME SHIP, but I thought the basic idea was cute anyway. Isn't taking every insignificant tv character and giving them a huge role how every Trek novel goes?

Beyond that, it's not like Michael Westmore is working regularly anymore. Did he make as awesome investments with his money as Dorn did buying a fleet of Fighter Jets?

HD DAD posted:Yeah, the Maquis conflict really just evaporates by the end of Caretaker. But in season one, they seem to be kinda sorta trying to stick to the premise while still doing the episodic thing. Then randomly bring it up throughout the show but by that point, a lot of viewers probably hadn't seen the pilot episode and have no clue why all they're favorite characters are now dressed in brown and point guns at people. I saw Endgame when it came out and didn't see Caretaker for at least 5 years after that.

FlamingLiberal posted:The last time it really comes up is in 'Worst Case Scenario', that mid-show episode where some crew members find Tuvok's secret security training program that he developed if the Maquis crew had ever mutinied and tried to take the ship. I actually like that one. There's one near the end of the show where some Bajorian guy is chanting stuff at the start and it brainwashes the maquis to take over the ship, I can't really remember the plot well.

Games of Thrones is up to like $10 million an episode and The West Wing was about $6 million so I guess Exec's just don't think episodic is what people want. It's crazy ST: ENT was $1.6 million an episode but VOY and DS9 were $4 million.

Epicurius posted:How are you going to get a complete Dominion withdrawal from the Alpha Quadrant within 26 hours of the ceasefire? The treaty also requires the Dominion and their allies to withdraw. The Breen arent a signatory, so I assume that there's a seperate treaty with the Breen? But, two problems. First, the Dominion can't bind themselves to Breen actions. They're allies, but the Breen still ha e seperate sovereignty. More importantly, the Breen are themselves an Alpha Quadrant power, so a complete military withdrawal by the Breen from the Alpha Quadrant seems tricky. I think they basically just forget the beta quadrant in DS9 as they only ever talk in terms of the Alpha quadrant throughout the war arc.

At least the cast and crew have fun making Discovery unlike the actors in Voyager being told to not act because it'll make the aliens seem more real.

If Starfleet would simply adopt a multple directional shield generator system they could drop a shield on one side of the ship while the enemy was on the other and do all the beaming they desired. Like in First Conta...

I mean, one would hope someone saved the data somewhere, but a poo poo ton of game stuff gets lost all the time because nobody cares about archiving anything. I'm pretty sure they got asked this years and years ago, I remember people being pretty obsessed with this game in the early 2000's.

Pick posted:People around here tend to like later DS9 but imho the characterization, the best part, really began to flatten out. S3 is probably peak for everyone. Later it's like, Jadzia is Worfs Girlfriend, Dukats all over the place, Bashir sucks, it's like they have no idea what to do with anyone. Can't believe Kira stands by Her Man so much that she acts like Odo wasn't the most collaboratory collaborator who ever collaborated Dukat went all over the place because the writers started to freak out that fans loved Space-Hitler.

If S31 mostly exists on their starships then judging by the preview for next episode they're all dead so there won't be a push to rebuild them from the top brass and they will truly become their own thing.
