    Mass Effect Legendary Edition

    I too enjoyed ME1 more than 2. I'm just going through my first ME2 play through in years (LE) and I'm not as engaged with this as I was with 1. I felt the same all those years ago when playing both games when they were released. The passage of time hasn't changed my feelings on either game. ME2...

    Ok. What is the chance of a Picard spinoff?

    I've always thought Jeri Ryan was a good actress and the 7 of 9 character was really well developed, but I'm not sure I can see her leading a series. In terms of storytelling it would be nice to see Seven come full circle and emulate her mentor by becoming an established captain. ST Picard only...

    Spoilers How in the Name of Q?

    I think Terry just decided the best way to move forward with season 3 was to totally disregard everything that happened in season 2. And I would agree with him.

    How would you change or Re-Write TNG?

    I would ditch Geordi's visor by season 4 or 5. Watching Picard this season reminded me what a wonderful actor LeVar Burton is and how much more his emotional range could have been utilised in TNG. The most effective way to convey certain emotions is with the eyes, which Burton does so well in...

    Spoilers Star Trek: Picard 3x10 - "The Last Generation"

    They saved the best to last. What a splendid way for the old crew to go out.

    Spoilers Star Trek: Picard 3x09 - "Võx"

    The big reveal was the Borg. How original. We only just left them last season. I suppose it makes sense since this is the final ever season of the TNG-era series to bring back Trek's baddest villain, but I am pretty fed up of the Borg by now. I did like that Alice Krige is back and the creepy...

    Spoilers Star Trek: Picard 3x08 - "Surrender"

    In Vadic's defence, she at least had a compelling reason to despise Starfleet, which was really nicely explained. On the other hand, I still haven't figured out why Nero wanted to destroy Vulcan. "I want to destroy Vulcan because Spock tried to save my people but failed". Wtf?

    Spoilers Star Trek: Picard 3x08 - "Surrender"

    A stock villain like this might be fine for a single episode, but the same over-the-top, maniacal and cartoony act becomes tiresome through the course of an entire season. DS9 villains such as Weyoun, Dukat, the female Changeling, Sloan, Tain, and even Kai Winn were good examples of interesting...

    Spoilers Star Trek: Picard 3x08 - "Surrender"

    Mystery box, mystery onion, whatever it is, it's dragged on for far too long now. I had a feeling that the end of the last episode where Vadic promised answers to resolve this mystery was just a red herring and that we're only going to really find out the deal with Jack in the finale, probably...

    Spoilers Star Trek: Picard 3x08 - "Surrender"

    Last 2 episodes have been mostly trash with a few nice bits added. The pros of this episode were the scenes involving Data/Lore, and seeing the whole crew sitting together again. Everything else was terrible. The duration of the Jack mystery box has gone beyond frustrating now. Typical of Nu...

    Spoilers Who is the mastermind in Season 3 of Picard?

    Dukat as the big bad is not a bad shout. Jack and his red eyes and superpowers might suggest he's a Pah Wraith of some sort. Might explain why "Dukat" is after him. Outlandish but interesting theory.

    Spoilers Star Trek: Picard 3x07 - "Dominion"

    A big step down from the excellent 3 episodes that preceded it. Vadec's backstory was the most interesting part, a nice DS9 era/Section 31 angle done properly in Nu Trek for once. Nice to see "Tuvok" too. The rest of the episode was fairly mediocre. People complain about the memberberries this...

    Possibly the only good thing about Picard was showing that Seven and Chakotay did not stay together

    The Seven/Chakotay relationship was no worse than the Raffi/Seven one. In fact, it might be a bit better since there were some hints on Voyager that it could happen before it actually did. The Raffi/Seven hookup appeared out of nowhere. Barely any interaction between them in S1 yet they're...

    When did Geordi find time for a family?

    Ah yes, I had forgotten about Aquiel. Leah doesn't really count since one was a hologram, while the real thing had no interest in him at all.

    Picard in the series has no charisma and authority

    Stewart's age means he's probably not able to speak with that commanding voice he once had. But the series until now definitely has portrayed Picard being weak, old, uncertain, dominated by others and a shell of his former self. He actually reminds me of the "alternative timeline" Picard that Q...

    When did Geordi find time for a family?

    My memory may be failing but I don't recall Geordie being in a relationship on TNG. Hell, even Data was getting more action from what I remember.

    Spoilers Star Trek: Picard 3x02 - "Disengage"

    Decent episode, not great. The villain is so awfully cartoonish. An ensign saying the enemy ship "looks pissed" just made me roll my eyes. And Raffi is just about ruining this season for me already. Why was she ever brought back for this season? But enjoyed the scenes involving Picard, Riker...

    Mass Effect Legendary Edition

    Just started playing this recently, starting with ME1. The Mako's handling still sucks!

    Endings you could change?

    Some good points. I never liked the idea of the Reaper invasion coming so soon. There should have been another game building up to it with the invasion happening in ME4 or even ME5. Also totally agree about Shepard's choices in ME2 becoming meaningless in 3. If you're pro-Cerberus in ME2, then...

    Spoilers So, what do we think of Season 2 now that it's done?

    S2 gets worse the more I think about it. The opening episode was superb, one of the best opening episodes to start a Trek season. Episode 2 was pretty good too. The drop in quality after episode 2 was startling. Almost feels as if there was a change of writing staff after episode 2. Setting an...
