General off-topic chat for the crew of startrek.website. Trek-adjacent discussions, other sci-fi television, navigating the Fediverse, server meta (within reason), selling expired cases of Yamok sauce, it’s all fair game.

Cool! Didn't know about it until now. I'm a big Stellaris nerd so this is interesting to me. But I'll usually wait until a game has proven itself before getting into it.
I saw a video about it yesterday - I think just because my youtube algorithm knows I like star trek. It looks fun! And it's not super expensive either.
I am, I love Stellaris and have played the NH mod, but I like the idea of one essentially built from the ground up as a Star Trek grand strategy game.
I wonder how it'll feel for someone like me who never played Stellaris.
If you've ever played a 4x game before, it's not too hard to pick up. Stellaris is a fantastic game, and I've sunk quite a few hours into it.
With that said, sometimes they drop the ball on DLCs, and the late game gets bogged down/boring, so it's worth waiting for player reviews to come back before getting it.
I’m going to. I’ve been waiting for a Star Trek release on Steam so will reward the developers by getting in early.
Absolutely. I have probably spent hundreds of hours on Sins of a Solar Empire, and though this isn't that, it is similar enough with a Star Trek coat. I'm sure I will get hundreds of hours out of this one as well!
I feel like Sins would be a perfect game to do a BSG based 4x game. With all the build fighters or bombers squadron decisions, or the reliance on capital ships.
I'd have to try it to know for sure, but that video makes it look pretty boring.
