RE: My Spoiler Free Review of Star Trek: Discovery
A scuttled idea for a new Trek series I read about once took place after Voyager.
The Federation had effectively become the Roman Empire: corrupt, decadent, dysfunctional. And as a result, the hippy-dippy utopian ideals had become stagnant and now harmful.
I'm drawing a blank on most of the specifics, but it certainly fits more into the grim realities DS9 touched on.
I honestly would like to have seen a tale along the same lines as the Star Trek Online story.
Theres basically two paths that starfleet can take, a concept played with since TOS with the mirror universe. Either it becomes militaristic, or scientific. In the future StarFleet does end up being militaristic with its time-police.
Aye. However, my point still stands that the story should focus on the future, not rehash the past over and over and over.
Sounds pretty cool!
