I'm a fan of Star Trek, Star Wars and Doctor Who, among other things. I'm mostly just posting Virtual Photography on here at the moment, but might get more talkative as I get more settled on bsky.
Rockstar Games fired 34 workers recently, exclusively & in their entirety, people who were setting up a Union to improve the working conditions at the company. Unless R* offer all 34 people their jobs back & permit the Union to exist, I for one will not be purchasing GTA6.

Didn’t realise November 7th is what #MassEffect fans mean by “N7 Day”, so here’s a slightly belated repost of my theory-crafts of the kinds of stats and abilities some ME ships might have if they were in #StarTrekOnline.
Wrote up some theory crafts for what kinds of stats & abilities some #MassEffect ships might have if they were in #StarTrekOnline. Obviously, there's next to no chance DECA & Bioware would do a collaboration like this (Paramount & EA even allowing it would be the first hurdle), but I can dream...
![Slide with information about what the Normandy SR1 from Mass Effect might do if it were featured in Star Trek Online:
"FAN SPECULATION; NOT ACTUAL STAR TREK ONLINE SHIP STATS
Normandy Intel Frigate
Weapons Layout 5/2
Intel/Pilot seating
Systems Alliance Tetryon Weapons: These weapons gain a damage bonus for each subsystem the target currently has offline. Available as Cannon, Dual Cannon, Dual Heavy Cannon, Turret, Quad Cannon, Wide Arc Dual Heavy Cannon.
Comes ready-equipped with a [Spatial Torpedo Launcher (22c.)]
Standard Cloaking Device
Console "GARDIAN Point Defense"
“A ship’s General ARea Defense Integration Anti-spacecraft Network consists of anti-missile/fighter laser turrets on the hull. Lasers are limited by diffraction; any high-powered laser is a short-ranged weapon.”
Beams will rapidly and automatically target mines, strike craft & destructible torpedoes within 2km for an initial time of 5 seconds, however, for each mine, strike craft or destructible torpedo defeated, effect duration increases by 0.5 seconds and range by 0.1km. Uses Fire Damage.
Trait "Emission Sink"
The Normandy class was designed with an experimental stealth system to keep it under the radar of hostile fleets.
All your outgoing Placate abilities will have doubled duration.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:jbrzimbqgkaz2i5zxmazqo7s/bafkreiabchg2dju4p5nnzlhlc2ekeyvfj7kqpzjanzggxlecnjzthqysou@jpeg)

While watching @vengeancegod.bsky.social's #StarTrekOnline stream playing around a lot with the tailor the other day, I had the idea to have some fun with some silly Jem'Hadar fashion magazine covers 🖖😂

Reached “Ex Post Facto” in my VOY rewatch. This is a “Tuvok investigates a murder” affair. If there *must* be any more Star Trek shows in the vein of Picard, milking a nostalgic character in a new setting, instead of “Legacy” or “Year One”, I’d love a Colombo-esque Tuvok detective show. 🖖😂
All in all though, I'm very excited to play the full game. Just playing the demo has put me on a real 'Voyager' kick and I've started rewatching the show, which has been a surprise -- It's definitely the Star Trek show I revisit the least, so I'm enjoying actually doing so for a change.

Played the demo for the upcoming Star Trek Voyager game, Across the Unknown. Seems very promising. Desperately needs some voice acting imo though. Given how expansive this game is and with branching stories, full-VA is unlikely, but even if its just a few generic sound bytes for each character,

This ship from the Star Trek #StarfleetAcademy trailer looks a lot like the Qehpu' class Klingon ship from #StarTrekOnline... 👀 more STO-Originals becoming canon? Is it being retconned as a 32nd century ship or is it just 800 years old and heavily refit? 🤔 Or is it just something similar looking?😅

PSA Heads up for anyone opening weapon packs in #StarTrekOnline to try and get the new Omni-Directional Radiolytic Phaser: It currently has the thumbnail of a basic Phaser Beam Array.

The new #StarTrekOnline story episode features a scene with numerous disabled allied ships. Apparently, there was quite some thought put into which types of ships should be present, so I went through and made a list of all the ones I found. Cannot guarantee I didn't miss any though.

The Echelon Class was a short-range patrol vessel that bore experimental Traceable Payload weapons that allowed a target to be tracked after fleeing. These made the class invaluable during the Iconian War to track the otherwise unpredictable Herald fleet movements

Commissioned @ncc-60205.bsky.social to bring to life an idea for a STO era refit of the Shi'Kahr, my favourite Miranda variant, in the style of the Exeter/Plymouth, my favourite STO-era aesthetic! (with a dash of Sutherland). I imagine it as a Science Carrier.
Also, my concept moodboard I sent them

Star Trek fans can be so exhausting sometimes.
There's an a̷r̷g̷u̷m̷e̷n̷t̷ echo chamber on the startrekstarships subreddit against how Wolf 359 Project & STO depict an Akira at W359. I only ask where the idea that the Akira was a post-W359 ship came from & people just downvote instead of... answering?

Wasn't in the patch notes, but #StarTrekOnline has also just fixed the unique viewscreen visuals assigned to certain bridges. This hasn't worked since they unlocked bridges from ships. Unsure yet if they're still assigned to bridges or if they're assigned to ships that would have them. Cool fix tho!

According to the Patch Notes, #StarTrekOnline is remastering their original 'Negh'Tev' variant of the Negh'Var 😮 I've said before that the Negh'Var is one of my least-favourite Klingon ship designs, but what I didn't say is that I DO really vibe with the Negh'Tev. Never expected it to be remastered!

With a new #StarTrekOnline story update coming in just a few days, thought I'd share some lore I wrote up about one of my characters that ties a bit into the current arc. Interested to see what happens next week with the ongoing Borg crisis.

I've always thought #StarTrekEnterprise had the best Klingon ship designs; maintaining the similar configurations but giving them sharper edges and rigging helps sell the aggressive warrior look in my opinion.
Always hoping #StarTrekOnline might some day add max-level versions of the Somraw and D5.🤞

With Excelsior leaving its testing stage, the Enterprise-B was to be the first of an improved full production line. But after an ill-fated shakedown cruise, the new configuration gained uncomfortable connotations, prompting most future Excelsiors to be built to resemble the original.
