Since its a parallel storyline, will Delta Recruits be free from having to listen to Tovan bark orders while you play a minor character in HIS story and then be forced to keep him for all time?

I'd love to see him changed to be an optional Boff, who could be dismissed outright. Can't stand that guy!

I'm thinking maybe pancakes." ~ John Casey
Not that I have a problem with him, I just find all the hate amusing, lol.
I never had a problem with him. Never got what all the hate was for. To me the Romulan boff crew reminded me a bit of Mass Effect, still it was cool to have a boof that actually spoke.
I think to this day all the hate was simply due to him not having Superior Rom Operative. If he had it you wouldnt hear any complaints.
And a merry freaking Christmas to you too, Ebenezer.

Dude - Tovan Kehv is the TRIBBLE of STO... if you get him, you have him for life!
And for fans of the TNG-onwards Romulans, he can be a really annoying reminder of how much Cryptic's Republic deviates from the Romulans of that era. Like an annoying Mascot.
And he has a stupid tattoo.
His lack of Sup Rom Op is only one of so many lovely reasons to push him out an airlock.
Yeah, it's weird to me too. I honestly think that the Fed tutorial BO is by far the worst.
Ah yes, steals the spotlight from the Heroic Mime...
But the Romulans we saw there were only a minority. You cant judge an entire race just for how a handfull of them are. I can think of 50 humans off the top of my head I wuld *not* want an alien race to judge humanity by.
Tattoo is removable...
You admited it, after everything else, its the lack of Sub Op ;P

I don't mind her either, heck I even went to the academy to get her for my old-tutorial era Eng ... I do wish I could set it to only show her first name though, kinda annoying that shes the only one of my boffs with their full name over their head.
If they got rid of Tovan Kehv and didn't address major plot elements that get left behind, I'd be really pissed. Plus, I love that he added a more personal element to the story. I'm sorry, but I'm on the other fence of this issue. If anything, they could offer up an LoR full of more plot holes left behind by the disappearance of Tovan.
LoR was and remains the best expansion to this game. The only flaw was Tovan Khev and my inability to either get him to shut up and follow orders or fire him out the nearest airlock. Here's hoping they remember this and don't pull a repeat.
In other words, the player.
By that same logic, the Federation might as well be full of homicidal drug-addled psycopaths, and most Klingons could actually be pacifist vegetarians- since we only ever saw a minority:rolleyes:
Or we could just consider for a moment that the vast majority of their depictions on every Trek show post-TOS just might be indicative of some broader cultural norms.
Which is the first thing I did when I got him
I included it as one of the many reasons one might not like him. I don't mind him that much for that reason, because I have more than enough VR Romulan/Reman Boffs with far better traits.
Hehe; you're right, I now realize why I hate him so: he reminds me of Kaidan Alenko, another annoyingly calm do-gooder that just gets under my skin, every time he opens his mouth!
Now that you mention it, I had never made that connection but I have to agree, they definitely have a similar personality...
Personally, I don't understand all the hate for Tovan... He may not be an ideal Space Boff, but he's pretty handy as part of an away team, just give him a Plasma pulsewave, minigun or Borg arm weapon...
Something that Cryptic should perhaps consider, since he cannot be deleted, give Romulan players a free Boff slot to accommodate him?
when you get him at the tailor... that's when you find out he doesn't actually have romulan fetures and is mostly human. the art dept here seems to think you stick some pointy ears on someone and they are romulan. Kirk looked more Romulan.
Read three above you.
That complaint was meant to be taken jokingly....:rolleyes:
Though I do think his default look really makes him look like quite a goof.
rather have a wife of my own choosing, not some ultra creepy man pretending to be... a wife. :P
id sooner throw tovan out of an airlock, i wouldnt want that ball and chain attached to my foot everytime i try do something.
Been around since Dec 2010 on STO and bought LTS in Apr 2013 for STO.
Saphire.. Science ground......Ko'el Romulan space Tac
Leva........Tactical ground.....Koj Romulan space Eng
JJ-Verse will never be Canon or considered Lore...It will always be JJ-Verse
He just eats up too much of the scenery and way to much dialogue... seems like he is the main character and not your toon. The story is just poorly written/executed.
also his traits suck and folks dont like having him due to it... maybe if they gave me SRO and SS for space traits... heck give him Sup Veteran & Sup Space Warefare as well so folks will shut up about wishing to get rid of him.
BTW the parallel missions will just be additional mission objectives that you need to do on each mission... collect something or flip some switch etc...
As long as we get to kill him right after that.
I'm with you--I don't understand the hate. I don't think the story line is his. either. The story line is about your character struggling to come to terms with the destruction of Virinat and exacting revenge on Hakeev.
As to whether or not he's especially good as a bridge officer--I pay that sort of thing no mind at all. The game plays the same to me either way.
*sigh*
Another person for whom a clown, and a pony, and two cakes is still not enough.
If you have "Boff themes" you're taking the game far too seriously. You should get a hobby, or maybe get out and meet some people.
hahaha.
10c.

Yes, they will.
If they play a Federation or a KDF character.
