Anyone ever played Starships & Spacemen, the D&D-style PnP using a a TOS-style setting with the serial numbers filed off? It looks quite fun if you're into (oldschool) roleplaying and want a bit of a different setting every once in a while. And if you're into Star Trek, of course.

I played a ton of the FASA Star Trek RPG back in the day. Still a fantastic ship combat system that I remember to this day.
 
Anybody see the new Lower Decks season? First one is out for free on Youtube and it feels very silly, leaning on references to all the times people have been given godlike super powers.

Though the second episode does something interesting; it calls out the excessively violent modern Star Trek shows. That the weird and somewhat scientific adventures of an ensemble cast is thoroughly "Starfleet" and that it is not all about violent action. How the fuck did that get past Kurtzman?

Same way DS9 got past Berman, I guess. No one pays attention to the "B" show.

I just assumed Lower Decks was just a shitty knock off Rick and Morty.
 
Nigga V'Ger is wrapped in a 1AU energy cloud and made three klingon ships disappear or some shit, ain't no way Nomad is scratching the surface of that thing.

Are you kidding? Nomad would just wipe v'ger's mind. Then WTF is the little toaster going to do?

I actually have no dog in this fight, I just enjoy retarded autistic slap fights.

But what if since they’re both looking for the creator, they combine to find the creator?

Edit: I’ve mentioned before how SFX shots in Star Trek V. Here’s an example of a fix by Nick Acosta.

Hm. Nice attempt, but to me a black hole isn't really a "barrier".

/edit: Oh wait, I'm realizing now that the Great Barrier in ST:V surrounded the galactic core, and is not a barrier surrounding the galaxy. Then the visuals of a black hole make sense.

You gotta love how everyone in this utopia is stark raving bonkers or finally snaps in Kirk's presence.

The Steve Jobs of the 23rd century, Richard Daystrom, had his engrams put into his computer... which quickly loses it and starts killing people...followed by Daystrom himself quickly losing it and stating, "We'Re InViNcIbLe. LoOk WhAt We'Ve DoNe. YoUr MiGhTy StArShIpS. fOuR tOyS tO bE cRuShEd As We ChOoSe", followed by Spock shutting him up with a Vulcan neck pinch.

Also this is actually the second time Kirk traveled here. First time was when they somehow ended up in Megas-Tu and found out magic and sorcery is real.

Yeah. SFDebris loves to joke how ST5 is a remake of that animated episode and how ST beyond is a remake of "Whom Gods Destroy."

Come on, today's Star Trek women are just as attractive...View attachment 2471126
And by attractive I mean so massive they create their own gravity to attract small planets.

You know you have a good uniform design when it requires a dance belt.

Also you need to strip from neck to ankles in order to take a piss.

It is and I will never even humor the thought that it isn't.
The fact they now try to throw shade at the rest of Star Trek isn't a sign that ST is getting better, it's just them throwing literally anything they can find at the fridge and hope something will stick. This is them now trying the Mandalorian route I guess. Come next show, it'll be back to black muslim troons with dicks flopping out beneath their miniskirst lecturing literal cavemen on the importance of proper pronoun use.

At this point, I would actually welcome Hollywoods honesty if they went full on degeneracy and came out with Star Troon Adventures.
Like, I've seen every franchise I ever loved crash, burn and having their charred remains get raped by a band of talentless, rabid trust-fund-kids with horrid political agendas.

Let them go all the way, I say. The pain has become dull and unending, by finally being honest about their endgoal we could at least get some fresh rage pumping.

Remember when a sign of a franchise going creatively bankrupt was going into space?

Now it's all about trooning out and girling up the place. *sigh*
