I went to a couple of events and one time met Kate Mulgrew - I got really into Voyager when it was on and always thought she was cool. I've been in and out of love with Star Trek over the years. For me, the only thing of any interest was Captain Lorca Jason Iscaacs is a decent actor and a relatively cool character. After the season break I watched part of an episode and thought - fuck this. I wanted to like Discovery and for a while I thought I did. Here's a whistlestop tour through the history of the Star Trek gaming universe. My relationship with Star Trek games - and there have been many (too many to include in this article) - pretty much mirrors this. I enjoyed the campiness of the original series, loved Wrath of Khan, was sort of into The Next Generation, but wished they didn't do so much moralising, and then gradually got bored with the whole franchise until the recent reboot films, which didn't feel much like Star Trek at all, and thus I enjoyed them a lot more.
Much as Star Trek fans are torn over Discovery, I've always had a bit of a love/hate thing with Star Trek. All I know is that I've watched the first half of the first season, and I can't get past the shiny spaceships, un-naturalistic performances, barking-mad Klingon politics, and how awful it is.Īnd I hate that I don't like it, because it's a sci-fi show with great production values. It's fair to say that Star Trek: Discovery has split audiences like a deck of nerds (cards), leading to debates over whether it's good or not, whether it squats like Mr Motivator all over Star Trek canon, and whether it's too different or too much the same.
And lo, the first series of the latest iteration of Star Trek has come to its conclusion.
