Lifelong Trekkie, finally fully embracing my Trek-ness online!
I dabble in building Star Trek models when I can, and modding Armada 2 and Bridge Commander shaped my education and career.

@charonn0 @ValueSubtracted oh yes! Played Armada 2 more, especially modded.

@halm @GuyFleegman I really wish I saw in S1 what you all seem too. To me it's a weirdly disjointed season:
Part 1: Introduction two parter, set up Burnham.
Part 2: Klingon War
Part 3: Mirror Universe
Part 4: Oops, forgot the Klingons! Wrap up.I LOVED Lorca and his arc, that was very good. But the season itself doesn't hang together as a consistent serialised story, it feels like they were halfway through shooting and had to suddenly make 4 more episodes, and it shattered the story.

@benfell @ValueSubtracted I loved Voyager as a kid, but I was 11 when it ended so 🤷♂️. Rewatching it now is hard because most episodes leave me with the feeling of missed potential. While it didn't need to be as serialised as DS9 ended up, paying a bit more attention to continuing character threads or subplots across episodes or seasons would have made it a much stronger series. We joke about the torpedo count, but it's a symptom of how little care Voyager took to developing its story.
