/c/TenForward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!

Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.

~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.

~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.

~ 3. Use spoiler tags. Use spoiler tags in comments, and NSFW checkbox for posts.
This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.

~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.

~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.

~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.

~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'

~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.

Fun will now commence.

Just a heads-up: the first episode of SNW season 3 becomes fair game October 17.

Start on TrekLit! Seriously...join me; you'll (probably) love it.

I started with "A Stitch in Time" because I've wanted to read it forever, and now I've gone through that plus two trilogies and am on 4 out of 5 books in the "Star Trek: Picard" sequel/interquel series.

Hard copies might be difficult / expensive to obtain since many of them are out of print, but ebooks [dot] com has most of them available DRM-free if you've got an e-reader or don't mind reading on your phone. A couple of the newer ones are DRM-only so I had to buy them and high-seas a DRM-free version lol. From what I've noticed, it seems like the publisher doesn't release the DRM-free version until 5 years after initial release. So, ethical piracy is my solution to that.

Here's some gems from the one I'm reading now (ST Picard: Firewall). It's about Seven's time with the Fenris Rangers

Plankton Farts and Dies of course

Play some games.

Star Trek Elite Force is basically a Voyager episode, complete with Voyager episode opening.

Star Trek Klingons Academy is really good, but it does have a few bugs.

If you're more tactical, perhaps try Star Trek Starfleet Command. There are three games and they're all on GOG.

Of course, you could pick up Sins of a Solar Empire for a fart and three marbles on the grey market. Then you can down the stellar Star Trek mods for it, like Star Trek Armada III or Ages of the Federation.

Star Trek Armada IV mod for Sins of a Solar Empire II just came out in alpha.

Star Trek Online is a free-to-play MMORPG that picks up some abandoned threads and is still getting new content and updates, brings back actors for VO. The downside is how grindy it is.

Fun fact, the Odyssey class of the Ent-F was first introduced in STO, as we're 1 or 2 other newer classes seen in PIC

[–] Tattorack@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

Yeah, some ship designs are really good in STO. Ship gameplay is also the best part of STO.

Problem are the FOMO events and eventually hitting a grind wall if you want to be able to play later missions without constantly dying.

Ground missions are also really crap. They're very basic cheap MMO affair, in stark contrast to the space gameplay. I read two different developers made made the two aspects of STO gameplay, and it really show.

Despite how good the stories can sometimes be, and how the writing is a real love letter to Star Trek as a whole, the compounding issues eventually got me to stop playing.

Time to start again

[–] Zephorah@discuss.online 3 points 1 day ago

You start over at the beginning and watch them again.

[–] Gork@sopuli.xyz 3 points 1 day ago

Time for Star Trek fan fiction, even if it's only head cannon in your head.

[–] Rhaedas@fedia.io 2 points 1 day ago

This is why I diversify into all types of scifi and fantasy.
