I am so excited. Well, not so much for the games, but for the rest.

Holy shit, Scotty!

Lower Decks teaser trailer (last season. 😢)- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0jTyLSP-sTM

Section 31 film - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kYfXhCp2UVY

I’m least excited about the film, because I’ve never really been a fan of the Empress Georgiou character, but I’ll give it a chance. Any new Star Trek movie is worth a chance.

The games seem a bit gratuitous.

    Lower Decks and SNW had a crossover and it was great. (I think they’re doing another?) It’s certainly better than dropping in Pro Wrestlers as monsters of the week.

      Yes, but LD and SNW are both Star Trek. Everything in LD is canon.

      Galaxy Quest is not Star Trek. It doesn’t involve any Star Trek aliens or ships. It’s just a really fun parody.

      And while we’re on this subject, I also wouldn’t like a crossover with The Orville. It’s originally a parody and later a tribute to TNG. Let it stay that way.

      I’m just not a fan of big shared multiverse things like this. I think it cheapens both originals.

        If it was a cross over in a show that would be bad, but a mobile game, not a problem. Should be fun.

        Would be happy to have some Star Trek characters come to Fortnite alongside Marvel characters for example. In a fun game, it’s not a big deal.

            I’m not bothered. No chance I’ll actually play these games. Just as long as these sorts of crossovers stay in games and don’t cross to other media then it’s fine.
