only time neelix really failed me was when he couldnt take two ferengi on in a fight... come onnnnn they were the worst ferengi......ugggh...... otherwise, im actually looking fwd to ethan phillips in this
The art for Neelix is nicely done. I shared an image to an irc channel and it was first in reduced size from that of the blog page. It still looked like Ethan Phillips. So the obvious features at a distance hold up.

I suppose if you like clowns and don't think too hard about the fact that (a) his kitchen violates literally EVERY health and safety regulation in the book and (b) he got multiple people killed through sheer incompetence, he's mildly amusing.
Otherwise, he's unbearable.

it isnt like ferengi are weak when they want to be, the ent d crew quickly realized this in a direct fight.
T6 Miranda Hero Ship FTW. Been around since Dec 2010 on STO and bought LTS in Apr 2013 for STO.
I think Neelix wasn't as bad as most make him - after all, a lot of blame goes to the show itself which was quite bad. The writing didn't really allow for *any* character development as everything got reset each episode (on purpose, as Brannon Braga once said. He didn't consider the audience able to follow a consistent storyline). When he had opportunity to act out a bit it was handled quite well and I like when the "funny guy" get's to have some serious and responsible moments.
As far as the visuals go, while the recreation of the show's character looks good it's a bit of a shame that STOs artist just reproduce the exact character we saw on the shows, 7of9 and Tuvok being the others, haven't seen Harry Kim's ingame model yet. I know they need to get that "recognition" effect, but they could have changed the characters a little bit, like Worf for example.

Next time you re-watch all 7 season of Voyager (recommended before the 14th) keep this in mind. Neelix was just trying to promote himself and be something that he wasn't in an effort to get recognition and praise and have a purpose. He was a fool that tried to be everything to make himself look important to people that didn't know better. Just remember that when you watch the episodes and scenes with him in them. It'll make it better and more entertaining when you know the truth.

He's too skinny. He has virtually no flesh on his ribs and his cheeks. And he was too tall compared to the other characters when shown in the group pic.
yeah the second most worthless and annoying crew member on voyager with Kess being first. They both should have left together at the end of the pilot episode never to be heard from again. Neelix was an annoying goof with delusions of competence and Kess was so sickenly sweet as to be unbelievable as a character.

Apparently I am the last person on Earth who remembers this stuff.
you should feel lucky they don't make him part of you're crew and bound, like Tovan Khev
I have been playing this game since mid 2011 and am looking forward to Delta Rising.
It's going to be epic.

Hell, throw in the costumes of the bad guys from that awful "move along home" DS9 episode and I'd probably buy it...
EDIT: Having said that I genuinely am happy that you've got Neelix. I don't really get the hate for him.

If STO used Bioware's Paragon/Renegade system, I would gladly accept Renegade points if it meant never seeing Neelix again.
i see that nearly every day!

even the tal shiar would be horrified by such torture.

Seriously, I would rather see Wesley Crusher.
You say that now, but just wait until you have to hear his irritating voice every five minutes.
