Star Trek horror game incoming, I guess. Michelle Forbes returns as Ro Laren, your main character in the game.

If you sat me down and gave me an infinite amount of time to guess, a Trek horror game with Ro Laren would never have crossed my mind. I’m intrigued.

Yet it somehow fits and gives us another look at the univers from a different perspective.

The new Gorn introduction in Strange New Worlds was probably where they got the idea.

Why is Ro wearing Kira’s d’ja pagh? Seriously, that image at the end is Kira’s.

This is Kira wearing the d’ja pagh.

Here is Ro in “Ensign Ro”.

This is the d’ja pagh Ro gives Picard in “Impostors”.

EDIT: If you think it’s just a common design, it isn’t. While in the context of DS9’s present day, Bajorans wear the d’ja pagh as a sign of piety that used to represent one’s family. Plus we’ve seen individuals like Li Nalas be identified by their d’ja pagh alone. “Accession” mentions that whole families are identified by their design which also indicates what trade they are in as part of the caste system of older times.

EDIT 2: That image also shows the d’ja pagh on the right ear. It was established that Ro wasn’t spiritual, and thus wore her’s on the left ear to stop people from feeling her pagh.

Wow thank you for your work 🙏

[–] hopesdead@startrek.website 4 points 1 month ago

It bugged me because I own a Kira d’ja pagh which I am wearing and the one Ro gave Picard. And Ro made a big deal about which ear she wore it on.

Wow this is easily the most legitimately excited I’ve been for any trek content the last ten years. I hope this is good.

[–] chronicledmonocle@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

Interesting looking game. Hopefully it's good. I remember loving the more "horror focused" missions on Elite Force 2.

[–] RebekahWSD@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Star Trek does dip into horror occasionally, but I didn't expect this lol. I'm interested! I really hope it's good!

[–] daggermoon@piefed.world 2 points 1 month ago

I can't believe Bloober is doing this game. I'm stoked.
