Wascally Wabbit

I love this genre, and loved this game in the beginning through several expansions, but ever since discovery, this game has really suffered. If you haven noticed, all they do for a "new" ship, is turn one upside down. LAME. They are trying to make to many to fast and have clearly ran dry of any creativvity in that department. Heck, the new Science Command Cruiser literally just dives BACKWARDS -"Look it's a whole new ship... IN REVERSE!" C'mon. And ALL of the "top tier" ships, are all the same. The new "Kirk Class" is just grotesque. You can tell some of the guys over there have just tapped out. And the ground combat engine is TERRIBLE, i mean embarrassingly so. They do do a very good job of trying to integrate "the World" of Start Trek across movies and TV, and different actors that are loved, and new fans and old fans and a lot of the story content is actually still pretty decently written. A TOS episodes arc that just lets you play all the TOS TV episodes would be fun. Or just all the episodes from all the different series. In Game purchases are WAY over priced, but you don't really need to make any to play the game. Admittedly, I have made many a Zen purchase to fuel my Trekkie streak, but honestly, it they want to keep the game alive, or increase revenue stream, they really need to start paying attention. Definate a C+ game, but it's the only game in town.

Deplorable direction. The racial stereotypes and clichés are so over the top it's beyond silly or funny and deeply into offensive, even for something that was allegedly written for children. I completely agree with other reviews; predictable (but most things are), has a few good moments (very few), and has a whole "cut and paste" feel to almost every aspect of it's production. The director's biggest credit is the worst Terminator movie in that franchise...I mean...I'm all for second chances, but this "movie" is barely watchable. Maybe, third chances in this case. Production values are good. CGI is good. Photography/Cinematography good. Pacing wasn't bad. Art was pretty good. Locations were good... there were definitely a lot of good elements, but story wasn't one of them. The director gets pretty good performances from actors...they are just really poor roles, in a poor setting, with poor development, and poor writing. It's almost as if the director didn't know what he was working on. Even the action sequences weren't enough to keep you into... whatever this was. And really... what was this? Meatballs meets Space Camp meets Jurassic Park meets Independence Day meets Goosebumps?? I totally respect the homage of recreating great visual shots from other movies, but this one is so unoriginal with it, it doesn't just take you out of the moment, it forcibly evicts you from the moment. All in all, I went into this not expecting much, but this failed to deliver even on that. In short: A little piece of my life I'll never get back.
