Star Trek: Voyager - Across the Unknown

[rusty_shackleford]

Releases in less than an hour, the demo was ok

[J1M]

Weird that it doesn't have a price listed yet. Hoping it is good.

Weird that it has no price, apparently $40. Which seems a bit high for what is a mobile title, but I guess it depends on if they added full VO or not.

[Jordy]

Looks like a mobile game. What was good about the demo.

Actually, I'll just try it out.

If someone plays it, let us know how woke it is.

The demo was just Voyager levels of libtarded

That's how they draw you in though, bait and switch. I used to love Voyager, but these days I'm not sure I can even stomach those levels. There's probably at least a gay couple or 2 to be found seeing how much of a trainwreck Star Trek is these days.

Yeah right, next you'll be telling me there's a female captain.

Looks like it's 35 bux, on sale for 30

It's a slipperly slope. First it was a female captain, then they turned Seven of Nine into a lesbian and now we're dealing with gay Klingons in the latest installment. So pardon me for being extremely skeptical.

D1 DLC and a $30 min for what boils down to Fallout Shelter In Space... I can't do it. Sounds like its worth it for people who enjoy the universe but, even then, only on a deeper sale.

Edit: Well... dang. Just watched a YT review that talked about/showed how one of his choices was ignored by the game and it just went ahead and did the developer's "correct" choice anyways. Disappointing to hear from a game that describes itself as story-driven and allowing the players to "shape the journey of the U.S.S. Voyager as they want".

Does this game even have the voyager musical theme? I'm not playing another star trek game with ****** cheap music like Rusurgence

It does have the theme music, but I believe its only for the main menu screen.

7k peak is a lot higher than I expected tbh

7k peak is a lot higher than I expected tbh

pre nutrek fans tend to have money and they are desperate for anything that isnt nu trek

studios are very ******** for not taking more advantage of that market

may be largely too late now though as many of them probably gave up hope years ago and tuned out

[rusty_shackleford]

The star trek video games being able to faithfully recreate things fans expect (e.g., a video game UI with LCARS) but star trek shows using generic scifi slop is funny

[Jordy]

Played the Demo. Used the array to get home and left the Ocampa to get raped and pillaged by the Kazon.

Did you enjoy it?

if by funny you mean enraging, yes

Not really. It's not really my type of game. I wouldn't mind playing it on a commute via mobile platform.

Thanks. I'm a big fan by the way. Appreciate what you do.

Watched some additional reviews.

No manual save or save on exit. Someone claims the dev did this on purpose to make "choices matter/more impactful" (zero citation). If true, I find that funny, given that there are outcomes you're forced into despite specifically choosing something else.

Edit: Dev response from their discord "Currently only auto saves, but since it came up alot already we will be looking into improving the save feature."

Static difficulty settings (not a huge deal to me).
You take penalties for sticking to a sector/chapter too long as a way to encourage players to keep going.
Writing is meh to passable. One reviewer specifically stated this sticks true to Voyager and doesn't delve into Nu-Trek styles of writing.
Clearly, lots of reading and the UI is a bit clunky/cumbersome.

Wow, thanks for the help Rusty! This will aid me in creating a full voice over extension I tell you what

There's lots of unnecessary text and dialogue.

Now you see here, I did some reading and it turns out we have to use forced alignment with transcription to figure out where to insert the pauses to make it sound better. Remember to always read the manual!

First thing you notice is how off Tom Paris sounds. Probably because it's the only voice you hear.

They actually got the real actor but he doesn't sound right, I can't tell you why.

He is phoning it in. When he did Voyager, his acting had a lot more emphasis and attitude into the things he said, a cadence as if he were constantly setting up for a punch line or quirky comeback. Here he sounds like he just sat down, looked at the script and just read it off in even tones.
