Star Trek online update....






I'm still plugging away the odd time with Star Trek Online.
I've been keeping my ships crew busy doing assignments.
They have helped my character to level to 52 without much of a problem.
So all in all not much of a change since I last posted about STO.







I did get to do the weekly mission/event that is currently based around the current theme(season 10), the Iconian's.
Meet and greet with House Pegh.
It was interesting.
I did find myself woefully outclassed in it's ending space battle. With sheer will and enough self explosions I finally got to the end of it. I wont' be repeating it.
I needed to do it, I needed something new. Being stuck with that one mission in the Romulan "episode" that refuses to let me pass and progress to the next episode is annoying.

Maybe skipping it was a bad idea....
 The story telling in this game is really good and carries the missions forward well. The new episode is not different. I'm a fan of Star Trek and to get the most out of a Star Trek game it does help by being one but in no way would a non fan be hindered in the game.


I've only glanced briefly at some youtube videos and some sites that go into detail about character progression, stats, ship and personnel, and as soon as I dig that little bit deeper I loose interest. I'm not that into the game. Many people with sites, blog's and video channels also spent a lot of money on the game, I don't. I bought the special edition at the start and payed for a few month's to see what it was about with a f for a change from wow. So for STO I really am a brief casual player just dipping a toe in every so often. In doing so I'm sure I'm doing things wrong and not doing things I should to make life in the game easier like joining a fleet(corp/guild).

The next stages for me in STO looks to be levelling up the low level characters I have, Romulan and Klingon, then maybe going back to my low level Starfleet dude.
Lots of storytelling left to see.
