EDITORIAL (from Indy): Save your Zen. This is likely meant to get people to spend the Zen they have banked already, before the good Black Friday sales.

I wonder if the "14th" is a typo and/or if the "21st" will be kept as the end date, considering this was posted today (2024 Oct 17).
Agreed. I would have loved to have that kind of callback to the story.
That was a lot of fun to watch. Thanks for providing the links to the various segments!

Fair point! I think you're spot on with the quality of the episodes (as game pieces) themselves. Story, meh, but game design/graphics, wow!
We'll see what happens. As the famous trombone player said, "Fate protects fools, little children, and ships named Enterprise."
Well said. And it's been an enjoyable journey throughout.
Some of the stories have been lackluster here and there, but that in itself is Star Trek. Not every show/game/story is going to be for everyone, yet beautifully all are welcome as trekkers/trekkies.
The game will probably soldier on for a significant period of time.
Agreed, but I would adjust that wording (whether "solidering", "limping", or "on life support") based on how the first DECA content feels.
It will probably be in a “zombie” state, not unlike that of Champions Online (as I understand it, I don’t really play that game).
Feels like it has been since 2020, if not a little before, IMO.
We’re closer to STO’s end than its beginning.
STO 2 when? 😛 Joking aside, we really are near its end. I wish that 3D model company hadn't turned and run after taking orders (yes, they refunded eventually); I'd have liked to have some of my ships as models to remember STO.

This one was a variation on "Ninth Rule". Same system too. Like the other patrol, this one took about 3 minutes in a DPS ship while learning the mechanics of the patrol. It feels "slower" than the other patrol, probably because there's more hopping around the map (just like Ninth Rule). The waves at the end are super easy compared to even a Normal Ninth Rule.
This one took about 3 minutes in a DPS ship while taking a tiny bit of time to learn the mechanics. Pretty easy and quick. This will likely be what I do to run the daily and just do it twice. I can probably shave it down to about 2 minutes once I know the map better.
How about we carve a Spock or Picard or Mariner or really anyone else who isn't a genocidal dictator? Hmm? Maybe?
No? Perhaps my dream for Star Trek has too much hope for humanity's future? Not enough grit, tears, and flashy booms?
