I think a comedy is "less canon" because calling Cerritos a "California class" is more like saying "this is the most wimp or weakling starfleet ships ever". So I believe Lower Lecks is canon, but not everything can be taked into a 100% serious story. But that's just my thought.

So, reading a bit yesterday and reading your comment now, historically aircraft carrier enterprise was class Nimitz because, well, they like the name, so I can give an idea how can work in Star Trek. I didn't know ships have "class" and random names, I always thought it was more logically choosen.

Sumarise: Now I know ships has random names and class with all similar ships, but class is not equal of ranks or something. Like hierarchy, that's why I didn't get it.

I don't get it.

I notice california class was a joke, that's why I ask how much is canon in general.

I look that Zhenzhou and is "Walker-class" what does class means? At least Crazy horse is from the original series, so maybe was a time of brainstorming.

I saw a lot of names, canon, and not canon, I know there is constitution and sovereign class, it can have names of locations of earth.

Lower decks ship is the Cerritos, which is a "California" class, together with other ones which I presume have name cities or provinces of that state, but since Lower Decks is more comedy, I start to have doubts about the true canon name and ranks of each ship, since the fanpages and wikis put ships which are doubtly canon.

Most of the time are just names like Rio Grande, but I think that was a shuttlecraft or a runabout.

So still, I don't get the criteria of ranks of names for the ships in general.

This are the kind of doubts I have when I try to understand things related with the lore.

I didn't know ships have "class" and random names, I always thought it was more logically choosen. Like, they make 10 ships which are from one class, and given with a name for each one, probably throwing a bottle on it.

I didn't know all of this before posting this.

I ask about target in another thread, I think Paramount dosen't know the Star Trek target either.

We need this artstyle again. /s

Looking it now, it reminds me of those Invincible memes people made up.

Star Trek Voyager but the writers are from Star Trek Lower Decks.

I don't know, DS9 is not that edgy and when there is extremist actions they are complained for not follow the starfleet tradition or being unethicals.

Yeah, something similar happend to somebody which watch the series with me.

Old Star Trek is really a series who you need to use your imagination to don't notice the lame special effects, that's something which was fixed in new Star Trek with high budget visual effects.

 

cannot personalize it in any way, not the tactical engineer or scientist carreeer, nor the appearance.

If I had known that, my first character would have been an engineer instead. Now I have two tacticians.

So starfleet has quota law?

I came later to the party, but I just watch this today.

Good concept but lacks of Gene Roddenberry's optimism.

Yes, the ending of the episode is optimistic, but I would’ve liked the Federation to feel confident and secure from the very beginning, and then, as the episode progressed, start having doubts. I understand that they want to add more nuance to the starfleet, but you know what? That’s already what Halo and Mass Effect do. (although the third Mass Effect 3 is ironically a bit more optimistic). I want them to genuinely be able to present a positive vision of the future.

I didn't reach two hours playing.

 

I think I still have an Arc account when I tried the game in 2012 (I didn't know english back then)

Old account or new account? It is the same?

 

Ok, this gonna sound polemic and I'm gonna try to not use any adjectives. (Except for once)

The thing is that sometimes I feel like many stories try to appeal to a broad audience, but regardless of what they aim for, a lot of the time the audience ends up being (I’ll allow myself this just once) men rather than women. I’m not sure if this happens with the animated series of Avatar, but I do notice that with Star Trek, even though they try to make everyone feel represented, the reality is that the average viewer is, well, just that—the average person in the country where it’s broadcast.

In the case of Avatar, it’s criticized by some Japanese people because they associate it more with China, to the point that they label it as almost racist when it’s compared to Japanese animation (anime). What I mean is that no matter how much a series tries to appeal to a general audience or to please everyone, that’s never really going to happen; it will always end up having a group with shared characteristics that likes it.

But what do you think? Can there be stories that anyone—regardless of gender, ethnicity, or country—can enjoy? I think the closest thing to that is Harry Potter, and well, you know what the creator is like, but that’s not the point here.

It’s hard to explain, but this is more aimed at writers or any other creative producer: do you write with a specific audience in mind, or do you think that everyone will like what you create?

 

I want to know if this is the typical MMORPG with forced daily quest to get exclusive rewards instead of giving actual contet or it is actually interesting story and gameplay wise.

 
 

After watching many episodes of many Star Trek series I was considering to make my own fanfic like I did with Half-Life Ampere.

I have a few ideas, but I'm not sure, it is normal to want to make up my own story set in Star Trek universe?

Also, I personally have troubles to try to be the most lore friendly possible and that make me angry while I'm typing down eveything.

 

I really like this episode, not only because it continue the story of M'benga, but also because it has this tradition complexity about Kilingon, and lot of action and drama in every character.

 

I hear Babylon 5 and The Expanse is nice, but I hear so little about those two shows I don't know what to expect of these stories.

live action as animated recommendation is allowed.

 

Also to the Krall of Unreal Tournament 3. What you think?

 

You are waiting for more borg and romulans? Are you interested in a new enemy of the federation to appear or have another re-encounter like the cardassians?
