These are the Voyages... Let's Play Star Trek Online!

Our captains brave a remote Klingon jail in order to rescue a legend.

I so love that mission. It's so. . . Klingon. First decent pure Klingon mission they've made in years. It felt wrong to play that mission on a Fed or Romulan, and it's tough as nails at the end too. Maybe campy, and Martok sounds a bit, um, off, but then I think most of the voice cast sounds off (their VO director is terrible), but it was still fun and totally worth the effort.

Still not as Klingon as The Gates of Gre'thor (the mission, not the queue) but good enough.

Our captains return to the Nexus to discover that something... wants out.

Our captains take on a true no-win scenario.

Yes, I did record this 2 months ago. I meant to process it that night and put it up right away, but stuff for the work trip I went on happened faster then I had expected so it got delayed. Sorry!

Our captains take a brief holiday to Q's Wonderland before flying off once more to stop the Tzenkethi.

Our captains take a trip to the new Lukari/Kentari joint colony, and find out something quite surprising.

Our captains return from vacation in time for the 8th Anniversary, which is interrupted by a frightening flood of enemies.

I found the Hurq to be laughable, on Advanced. Never got through my shields, never were a threat to me, and I was left wondering why the NPCs were having such a hard time.

Our captains look into a strange hunt that ties together all manner of people.

Our captains take a long jump across the universe in order to find out the fate of two missing ships.

Our captains interrogate the Tzenkethi captain who helped them out, to see what they changed their mind.

Our captains take a moment to check out an allied fleet's starbase, and have a a fun time.

Our Firsts travel to the Alpha Quadrant in order to bring the fight to the Hur'q.

The cinematography of the entire storyline is the best the game has to offer. The opening sequence alone is heads above anything STO has done up to this point.

There are still some bugs with the entire Jem'Hadar stuff (mostly Klink side, but a lot of other stuff), but it's generally quite good.

I was pretty impressed by your First actually even emoting during the scene where you see the Hur'q for the first time. Him putting the weapon down slightly, looking kind of surprised, and then finding his composure is probably a little out of place for a Jem'Hadar, but also really struck me as an impressive scene. Something Cryptic hasn't really done to date.

That's a great moment too. The whole storyline is filled with that stuff. Hell, they managed to get some of the talking heads to have personality (no spoilers on who).

Presentation wise, this is the best STO has ever done.

BTW, look for the best NPC in the game on DS9. You'll know who it is, and no, it's not a named character.

Our Firsts tour the newly renovated Deep Space 9, and meet it's cast of characters.

Our Firsts travel to a prison planet to liberate the people there, including a very important Bajoran religious figure.

Our Firsts come to the aid of some allies, and find a conspiracy they did not expect.

Our Firsts visit an ancient Founder station and discover a shocking history.

Our Firsts play wheelman for Quark as he pulls of a daring heist.

Likely the best mission of ViL. But also the best example of the issue of the entire storyline: The player character isn't necessary. There's no agency for the player to be involved, they're just there, part of the crowd.

It works okay for a Jem character, but for anyone else it falls apart completely. Even for the Jem, it should be THEIR story, THEIR journey from being basically slaves into being citizens and protagonists, and it doesn't really do that.

If you want to see a mini-series quasi sequel to Deep Space Nine, this is your jam, but if you want to be part of the story, a major driver of it, well, um, it's not.

Still a fun mission though.

Our Firsts travel to the Hur'q homeworld to try and discover what the root cause of the invasion could be.

Our Firsts return to the Founders' homeworld to defend it from the Hur'q, and end this conflict once and for all.

Our captains defend a couple of evacuations, one from the Hur'q and one from the Klingons.

Our captains help uncover history by participating in a simulation of an important battle in Starfleet history.

What was learned is that the if Federation had access to gravity well during the battle, Klingon would be an extinct species.

Just goes to show the power difference between Tier 1 and Tier 6 ships.

A new generation of potential officers go on a training cruise, that ends up being more then they expected.

Take Fed Tutorial script. Replace every instance of "Borg" with "Klingon.' Make some kind of nifty in engine cutscenes, DONE!

Seriously, it so closely follows the 25th century Fed Tutorial it's embarrassing. On the plus side, Tilly is well used and the animation engine they built for the Dominion arc was well used. Would have preferred something more, unique.

I suspect, given the timing, they really didn't get lot of time to develop it fully. A full six months would have given us something great. Instead, it's just a rehash. Created a Discovery toon, ran the tutorial, then deleted her. Wasn't worth the effort long term.
