I won't be playing STO regularly again until Jan 2021 when I will be building a new high end gaming rig since this game does look great in 4k. Can't run it so well on 4k right now.
Doubt there will ever be an option to change your race but there should be an alternative, this will elevate leveling a new character. My main is a betazoid and I really wanna be human since I can't make the Betazoid look like myself due to the dark brown/black eyes. I have amber/regular brown eyes mix.
They should have an option where you can transfer all skill points from 1 character to another. A skill points transfer token. Or an option to transfer unused skill points on 1 character to another. Doubt this will ever be implemented , most of all I want a race change but it will never come, this post is useless.
