There’s no answering this outside of individual group preferences. Or definitions of what constitutes a difficult challenge. Or what abilities are even being challenged. For example, most of my games feature an element of friendly competition over making the most amusing character.

The signup page still has a big modal box saying "Join Twitter today" (with a little X above that). When you close it, you get taken to the X splash page. I totally would trust this team with my financial transactions. Or my Mars colony.

He can name the parent company any letter he likes, but Twitter is also the brand. Rebranding one of the most recognized global brands on a whim seems... ill-advised. Or advised by too many rails of cocaine.

Good Lord that was entertaining. I think the attention to character made it more than just fan service. I really want some live-action Lower Decks now.

I thought you were going to post a clip from Buffy’s “Once More, With Feeling”. That’s the high-water mark for this sort of thing, isn’t it?

We finally really did it. You maniacs! They made a musical episode. “Subspace Rhapsody”. S02E09. Bless them!

Maybe for fighting?

Past a certain point, style is substance. Every set of rules for good worldbuilding is wrong.

It's like they've inverted the classic TNG structure. The character development 'B' plot is now the focus. It really works for this show.

The Last Jedi is the 2nd best... ... whoops wrong subform. Ahem, system matters to a different degree among gamers. For some system doesn't matter much at all.

Maybe a Star Trek game? It's dearer to my heart than any fantasy fiction, or other science fiction truth be told. Wait... that's why I haven't run a Star Trek game!

I... I can't believe I'm going to say this, but I would be okay with a reboot of TOS with Paul Wesley's Kirk. The main problem I'd have is I'd want to keep Ortegas, La'an, and Dr. M'Benga around. Maybe end it right before the salt vampire. Or what the hell, rewrite fake history and end it with...

I miss the original matte painting.

I've not heard that put better.

Ship-burning witch now ally?

But this is exactly what most long running franchises did not do. Bond. Marvel/MCU. DC. Who. Etc.

Whenever someone insists canon is inviolate, I like to ask them “what year was Batman born?”.

Also consider this episode cribs from the TOS episode in which Spock successfully modifies a 23rd century tricorder with 1930s radio parts.

I don't think a show that takes its cues from the original Star Trek needs added realism, either. Would a more realistic take on Chicago gangsters have improved "A Piece of the Action"? Re: Vermont - I think that was meant to emphasize how the better, promised (and threatened) future is a...

A tragic Star Trek rom-com that channels “City on the Edge of Forever”, “Yesterday’s Enterprise”, and for good measure ”Genesis of the Daleks“? And the title is Shakespeare? My cup of Romulan Ale runneth over.
