I may be biased because I'm such a Trekkie, but STO has consistently been one of the best MMOs out there for cooperative and solo play. The space combat system is amazing and fun, and the developers do a really good job of creating new content and keeping things running smoothly. I purchased a lifetime membership and have never regretted it.

Star Trek Online is a phenominal MMO that has kept a large part of the community going through the dark times of no star trek after enterprise was canceled. They've created long and winding stories that are truly trek in nature. It is very obvious to me the people in charge are true trek fans. Paramount has shown love back to STO in recent years by canonizing several high tier ship designs most significantly the Odyssey class, as the Enterprise-F. It's only got a few weaknesses, such as the ground combat being lackluster (as opposed to the EXCELLENT space combat, which is similar to the third person bridge commander combat) and being a bit too grindy and has P2W mechanics that are common in F2P MMOs. Try this out, if you're a trek fan. ---{ Graphics }--- ☐ You forget what reality is ☐ Beautiful ☑ Good ☐ Decent ☐ Bad ☐ Don‘t look too long at it ☐ MS-DOS ---{ Gameplay }--- ☑ Very good ☐ Good ☐ It's just gameplay ☐ Mehh ☐ Watch paint dry instead ☐ Just don't ---{ Audio }--- ☐ Eargasm ☐ Very good ☑ Good ☐ Not too bad ☐ Bad ☐ I'm now deaf ---{ Audience }--- ☑ Kids ☑ Teens ☑ Adults ☐ Grandma ---{ PC Requirements }--- ☐ Check if you can run paint ☐ Potato ☑ Decent ☐ Fast ☐ Rich boi ☐ Ask NASA if they have a spare computer ---{ Game Size }--- ☐ Floppy Disk ☐ Old Fashioned ☐ Workable ☑ Big ☐ Will eat 10% of your 1TB hard drive ☐ You will want an entire hard drive to hold it ☐ You will need to invest in a black hole to hold all the data ---{ Difficulty }--- ☐ Just press 'W' ☐ Easy ☑ Easy to learn / Hard to master ☐ Significant brain usage ☐ Difficult ☐ Dark Souls ---{ Grind }--- ☐ Nothing to grind ☐ Only if u care about leaderboards/ranks ☐ Isn't necessary to progress ☑ Average grind level ☐ Too much grind ☐ You'll need a second life for grinding ---{ Story }--- ☐ No Story ☐ Some lore ☐ Average ☐ Good ☑ Lovely ☐ It'll replace your life ---{ Game Time }--- ☐ Long enough for a cup of coffee ☐ Short ☐ Average ☐ Long ☑ To infinity and beyond ---{ Price }--- ☑ It's free! ☐ Worth the price ☐ If it's on sale ☐ If u have some spare money left ☐ Not recommended ☐ You could also just burn your money ---{ Bugs }--- ☐ Never heard of ☑ Minor bugs ☐ Can get annoying ☐ ARK: Survival Evolved ☐ The game itself is a big terrarium for bugs ---{ ? / 10 }--- ☐ 1 ☐ 2 ☐ 3 ☐ 4 ☐ 5 ☐ 6 ☐ 7 ☐ 8 ☑ 9 ☐ 10 ---{ Author }--- ☑ https://vojtastruhar.github.io/steam-review-template

very good game but very badly needs better ways to bring players together

May 2024

Lots of really cool story lines and the game play is really fun. It's will always be a game for me to come back and play again and again.

Jan. 2024

I was one of the first people to be invited to beta test this game years ago, so I've been playing for a very long time on and off. Most of the changes over the years have been positive, such as the revamp and improvements to ground combat and the many graphical updates over the years. The story-line missions are well written and fun to play through, and the depth of character and ship customization is great. There are a few things that have changed for the worse though. I miss the foundry where you could create your own missions, and the number of in-game currencies and factions is starting to get a bit out of hand. Some of the weapon and special effects can get overwhelming on screen to the point where you can't see whats going on if you are in a large group. Overall though, I would recommend trying the game as it's free to play and you just might like it enough to stick around.
