TNG on the other hand has a lot of non canon crew such as Aviator Yar, augment picard and Riker, COP Picard, Assimilated Geordi and all the Mirror crew from the comics run... that to me negates it being the best ‘immortalised’ show.
However, considering the percentage of characters versus how many actual episodes there were, I'd say Disco is probably in the lead. With Queen Burnham as the leader.
I found the game jumped the gun by incorporating Discovery into it & since the 1st episode was aired in September until last week it’s been nothing but spoilers with the bombardment of Discovery crew & ships.
Yes, it is clear that this game has done pretty well with TOS, TNG, DS9, VOT, ENT (questionable on that one), and DSC (too much too fast). But these are already series which have been long-loved and/or are highly visible, so is it really immortalizing them? Hard to say it is.
So I chose TAS because for many people, this is an unknown series, it is underrepresented in the larger Star Trek universe, often discounted as a throw-away show. So I like seeing that this game is helping to bring its characters and stories a bit more to the forefront little by little.
I never thought they'd touch TAS if I'm honest. But then we got Arex, then Lucien, now Thelin. But STT has definitely opened up the possibility for more like M'Ress, Dr. Sarah April, Carter Winston, Stavros Keniclius, and others. Mainly STT is putting TAS on a map where usually it is so niche to the ST universe that this may well immortalize the series for this game.
Captain of the voyage vessels: Queen of Bashir, Landsknecht, and Sunspear, the first luxury starship cruiseliners.
Amenities include wifi, fully-functioning holodecks, a full-service bar, 3 party decks, a Trill spa, and a business centre.
Fun fact: The ships are propelled by bouncy castle technology.
That’s a really good point I hadn’t thought of. Roddenberry was fairly dismissive of TAS for a long time to the point where it was barely mentioned in various reference books...and even then, usually with codicils saying it was non-canon except for what D.C. Fontana added to Spock’s backstory. Now it’s canon again but is still I think relatively unknown outside of a circle of diehard Trekkies. Getting to see so many characters from the show - even if Thelin was chosen due to a dearth of Andorian characters whose actors have elected to do deals for the rights for their likenesses, as I suspect (why else would they have held off on highly popular characters like Talas or Jhamel) - has been refreshing.
But that's maybe because that show has a massive cast of many rememberable characters.
I count it there are 42 DS9 characters in the game. Of course, I could skip some in the process of counting.
I agree, I’ve Been harping on at them for a while now about...
