Will the next season take a step away from the discovery stuff?

as far as i can tell the original content that was made before the nutrek shows is far mor enjoyable and interesting than $TD.
would be cool if the devs developed more of their idea and content moving on in the 25th century like they did before, and with more of the classic trek characters again, and the ones they introduced themselves like captain shon. i really got to like the character.
the other shows from the past few years are really not interesting imo and dont have more than the name in common with star trek.
but its also a lot of the ship designs they came up with like the odyssee class looked a lot better.

i guess the producers dont want the association with a certain type of a disease, but its not like their shows are any more enjoyable.
It is censored because that is also an acronym for a s e x u a l l y transmitted disease and is usually used against Discovery to hate on it and to be immature as well. The acronym is DSC, in Memory Alpha it might be DIS. Also, because that decision by people to refer to it in that way is very different than the other acronyms for the other Star Trek series. ENT=Enterprise, TOS=Original Series a.k.a. Star Trek, TNG= The Next Generation, DS9=Deep Space Nine, VOY=Voyager, PIC=Picard, LD=Lower Decks. Personally wish the acronym for Star Trek: Discovery was DIS instead of DSC but that was their decision not mine.
well, most people ive heared talking about it call it $TD. its not that the production company has even the power to make that decision. its generally what tends to prevail in public language. if more people use one version than the other, then they can censor it any way they want, and their version will still not become the main designation.
and yea, im aware that it has a second meaning, but if she show wasnt about as enjoable as such a disease, tried to be a star trek show and not something else under a star trek coat of paint (same for picard), people would probably hate a lot less on it.
its not like theyre hating without reason or hating just for the sake of hating. it would be easy to write entire essays of why the shows are terrible star trek shows.
at the end of the day everyone is entitled to their own opinion. including those who like it, (even though i dont know why anyone would).
censoring the acronym as a form of damage control seems silly. but this is drifting off topic.
As for taking a step away from that show in STO, they might move away from it in the next season update but whether one likes it or not, DSC is Star Trek so it will always be part of the game and will never not be a part.
there was literally a scene in an episode of discovery where they made fun of gene roddenberry.
their short trek series had gems like a starfleet captain making fun of a crewman and humiliating him for a joke, because thats exactly how gene rodenberry envisioned a starfleet officer in a utopian society to behave in which mankind has become its best.
ill start showing some respect to these shows and their producers, when they develop respect for what they have in their hands, and the shoulders of the people theyre standing on.
as far as $TD content in this game goes, its a nice feature that you can just skip the story episodes touching the stuff and ignore the content.
id really like if the devs develop more of their own ideas, because i quite liked a lot of them. my favourite mission was probably going with the lukari on their first space expedition.
finding the gekli, greeting the farpoint aliens, exploring an abandoned alien ruin into the discovery of k-13 etc. it was probably the most star trek like episode out of their content.
No. It is TRIBBLE thanks to their naming their show the way that they did, with none of them being too aware of what might likely happen. Same as for TNG, DS9, etc. shortening it to DSC is a preference that some tacked on to avoid the unintentional slur, but that is a choice. TRIBBLE fits with previous nicknaming conventions!
