Oh, turns out it was actually corn syrup, not maple - I went to check the Kanar article to make sure I got that right...though, they did switch to pancake syrup after a point because Damar's actor was getting 'wired'.
I'd also like to know where in Picard anyone said anything about the supernova destroying planets other than Romulus and Remus - I don't remember that at all.
Well, the Picard and Kanar ones definitely are...can't speak for the rest because I've never seen them. Also, wonder if the contents of the Kanar are accurate to how it was in the show...namely, being literally maple syrup.
What Emperor system? The RSE having an Emperor/Empress is a pure STO invention - even as far as Nemesis, which is the last time we saw any instance of the RSE government, they had a Praetor - even Shinzon called himself that.
I seriously hope that IS what happened, because it would also explain that whole 'Terrans are genetically predisposed to being evil TRIBBLE' line that white-haired guy with the glasses said to Georgiou in S3 in a way that...well, I'd elaborate on just what I think of the obvious implication of that in the other possible…
You wanna talk about buggy cutscenes with varying player height, just look at Tuvok's mind meld scenes from Mindscape...more often than not, he'd be jamming his fingers in my eyes, up my nose, in my mouth, through my neck....
(Hey, who was it Matt handed Azura's Star off to? It wasn't Jaessa, was it? If it was, this would be a good moment for her to bring it up after everything else is said and done - after all, since both Alex and Matt look the same, she would have no way of knowing it's not the same wolf.) *Alex blinks and glances between the…
Alex: The only subspecies of Humans you'll find here are my kind, the Lunari - we may look like upright wolves, but there's enough Human DNA left for us to be considered a subspecies rather than a different species entirely...that'll probably change at some point in the future, though.
Well, there WAS that one thing a while back involving creepy distortion barcode text (I don't know the official name for it), phone numbers and audio clips...I don't remember what it ended up being. So clearly it still works, it's just not being used to its full potential.
I'm guessing that last bit was a reference to Generations...honestly, even if the saucer had landing gear, it wouldn't have made much of a difference in the end - the Daring D still would've been retired in favor of the Enterprising E.
(Well, he's a captain - maybe they thought they could get something out of him.) Alex: And if M*A*S*H* works out, you should give Hogan's Heroes a go too - similar thing but set during the Second World War, bit less production quality - hell, the first episode wasn't even in color - and only ran 6 seasons and didn't even…
Remember when that Romulan emblem suddenly showed up one day on the old forums with a timer counting down? The one that eventually ended in LOR? THAT is how you build hype.
You're the one who said there's no precedent for being able to buy premium items for ingame currency - I contradicted that by providing an example outside Cryptic.
(Because the guy was doing free request drawings and likes military stuff and ropework, so I picked something fitting those two themes to increase the odds of my selection being one of the ones picked...apparently he REALLY liked it, because I actually got the first one - and being British, this just seemed like a natural…
(I got another art! Looks like Alex wasn't paying as close attention to his surroundings as he should've been: he got captured by a member of the IRA obviously, this is AU - especially given the IRA soldier is a dino.)
ESO just recently added a way to buy crown crate items (all the way up to and including the toppest tier stuff) with an ingame currency...so not nonexistent anymore.
Yes, you can go wrong with physical controls - many different ways. Whereas with AR, the only things I can immediately think of that can go wrong is if the interface implant malfunctions, the connection between the implant and rest of the ship is broken or disrupted in some way or the user ends up incapacitated - which are…
Well, that was back in the 60s - it's now 60 years later, displaying holograms in mid-air is a lot easier and far cheaper, and AR tech is taking off, so people are soon going to be doing all manner of weird gestures - Discovery definitely should've gone with it, and I will be going with it if I ever get to that point in…
They should've just removed the physical panels entirely and had augmented reality controls - yeah, it's going to look silly having cast look like they're having seizures by moving their arms about mid-air when not in focus because they're the only ones who can see their own AR control panel, but...it'll look that way when…
