Seriously, guys, try writing stories where people talk to the protagonist...the PLAYER CHARACTER. Watching NPC's chat with each other and pat each others' backs is a waste of time...especially since your reward system makes us play each episode 4 times per character. Either cut the repetition or improve the writing quality - or, ideally, do both.
It's especially annoying when the PC is by far the most senior officer there, outranking both Guest Stars by multiple ranks, yet treated by both as an errand boy. After the initial deployment of these episodes (where Level 10 people can play), these things get shunted to endgame. Everyone is a Fleet Admiral or Dahar Master at that point, and these two people are captains. Having them tell a Fleet Admiral to do things, is like having a Branch Manager of a convenience store order the CEO of the chain to go take inventory on a Sunday night, and to mop the place when he's done.
Don't believe me? Try this fun experiment: get whoever writes your dialogue to order the CEO of Perfect World to go personally clean the restroom. Have him or her repeat that order once a week for 4 weeks. See how long that writer lasts. That's how your dialogue sounds when Captains give Fleet Admirals orders.
There were some good points:
1) At least both main voice actors are good this time.
2) Once the action starts, the plot advancement is good.
3) The environments ARE lovely, we just don't need 10 minutes of Geordie and Kuumaarke stroking the art department over it. Let the work speak for itself.
4) No Sela or Tovan Khev.

For a minute I felt like I was in a Space Quest episode, I was waiting for a bad pun or spit take before the next cut.
