I really dislike the new Star Trek TV series (Discovery). I don't want it to have anything to do with the online game. Unfortunately the game can draw from everything that is cannon and develop on it. As much as it pains me to say, STD is indeed considered cannon. One moment while I violently vomit....
I had hoped there would be only limited crossover with Discovery and the game; Ships, uniforms and other cosmetic things. But to see that the next "expansion" of the game will be Discovery based is a constant stomach churning thought. Time will tell if that churning stops and/or can be reversed.
What really gets me is the recent news that the first of the new Operations will be from an episode of STD. The destruction of Starbase One. I find it hard to see how this will be available for all factions yet be only seen and done from the Federation perspective. As it's a Klingon vs Federation engagement it would have been nice to have it seen from both sides depending on your own faction. They have done that before. So if your sided with the Klingons you can do this event from the Federation side fighting Klingons. STD nonsense is infecting the game.
I'm so full of negativity about all this, that I'm not "giving it a chance", kind of the same way as the TV show and look how that turned out.
