Little interest in ST Sports?

SystemSystem Member, NoReporting Posts: 178,019 Arc User
So I was reading the thread started by a very gratious community member who has collected various dev announcements into one place about whats being worked on. It stated that they might be adding a new minigame in season 2, but they havent seen much interest in the community for sto sports.

Am I the only one that doesnt instinctively link Star Trek with a Blitzball-esque game? after all, anti-grav soccer would be very easy in the Star Trek verse.

Thoughts?

    i'm more of a kal'toh or 3d chess player myself.

    heck, knowing the way they fix the tables at quarks dabo is going to send me broke so i won't even have time for recreational sports.

    No thanks. I'd rather have -less- twitch-based gameplay. Which means I would rather see turn-based gameplay, like:
    • 3D chess
    • poker
    • tongo

    These games, in addition to the upcoming Dabo, tended to monopolise the minigame recreation seen in Star Trek. They do not involve twitch-based mechanics, and so everyone is on an equal playing ground.

    the very word "sports" probably brings back too many painful high school memories for star trek fans...

    The only seriously proposed STO sport I've seen is Runabout Racing.
