My first one was Star Trek TNG: Advanced Holodeck Tutorial for Game Gear. I wasn’t really a trekkie back then (had watched a few of the TOS movies with my dad and liked them but didn’t really care much about Star Trek until around the 30th anniversary I think). I remember thinking the game’s enterprise design was dumb and wanted the stylized one from the movies back (and Kirk and Spock and Scotty instead of these “random stand-ins” :P)

And I think my favorite one was a heavily modded Bridge Commander. I didn’t really play much of the actual game (or “the campaign” as kids call it today) but spent probably around 100 hours playing custom scenarios, battles from the movies and shows.

$8chan.

I don’t remember Tasha being more subpar than the rest of the cast, the first two seasons were abysmal compared to seasons 3+.

Some time ago I was so sick of reading complaints about the “nu-trek wokeism” I started a rewatch of the different shows making a list of the obviously woke things touched in every episode to make a long thread, episode by episode… I abandoned the idea because watching it “just to prove a point” wasn’t enjoyable, and it felt dumb having to explain why this or that is progressive.

Some episodes haven’t aged well, and Star Trek has lagged in some issues (lgtb specially) but they were really progressive for the time they were aired. The anti racism for example was constant an pretty on the nose. Every mention of capitalism in TNG being treated as a dumb teenager phase in humankind story…

I don’t get how you can watch that, and consider yourself a fan, and ignore all of that.

Insurrection is not among my faves but for me it’s exactly what a Star Trek movie should be: a two parter episode with better budget.

Seriously? their attack against an asshole transphobe is… calling her tr*nny and being exactly as shitty as her?
