Not much difference between Neth Parr and our Captains, honestly!

If you think about it, the two things in common:

shoot stuff

not much diplomacy

no disable/no-kill option

no stun option

ya its like section 31 took over starfleet and said forget everything, just kill

its kinda grim and i wanna not hurt people as much

as a game its great

as star trek its not so great

unless your a fan of discovery and the jjfilms then it is awesome

now its practically star wars

which was always better by the way

cause its like discovery and the jjfilms

which is awesome and cooler then most treks by the way

XD

    now now, comparing sto to star wars is unfair... sith inqustors in swtor can spare way more people and they are not darth sidious and not darth mauls. in fact once you pretty much break one guy mind because of it.

    if I stop posting it doesn't make you right it. just means I don't have enough rum to continue interacting with you.

    One big difference. I don't think there's been a STO mission to date where we plant a bomb that ends life of sentient beings on a planetary scale. And the one tine we do it as NETH PARR wasn't the first time said NPC carried out such a mission. What's disgusting to me is Gerdi thinking the character deserves a 'fair shake' (as he too knows the history.)

    The excuse "I was just following orders..." as a 'defense' was shown as invalid during the post WWII Nuremberg war crimes trials. And before you call me out for 'going there'; remember it's the STO Dev Team who is trying to present an NPC with that defense as a sympathetic character in that particular mission.

    It's the first time I've been really somewhat disgusted by MMO content. That they present a story like this in a game based on Star Trek and have main Star Trek characters being sympathetic to a being such as NETH PARR shows they really don't know their real world history; or are intimating the Federation's values have changed.

    So yeah, we aren't innocent, but now we are all like 31 where we all turn a blind eye and forget history.

    Man I miss the Picard days. I don't think he would have the stomach for all this drama.

    The player is not like Section 31, they resort to genocide. Neth Parr and the Tzenkethi are much closer to them.

    Picard may miss the exploration days, but he served during the Dominion War. He's familiar with the more military side of Starfleet and what his job requires.
