Paradox: Star Trek Infinite

[Syt]

Oh another thing I noticed when looking at the Romulans ... apparently there's no Remans? I mean, Star Trek: Nemesis was not a very good movie, but removing them from the equation completely (esp. when Stellaris has a mechanic for master/servant races within an Empire)?

After a few patches maybe it will be good?
I'm skeptical of how they'll do it and what I read now doesn't sound encouraging.
But a proper story driven star trek strategy. A new and improved birth of the federation. Would be great.

I don't know read a couple reviews and they don't sound terrible.

I mean - I played the hell out of Birth of the Federation.  It was not a very good 4-X game.  But it was a Star Trek 4-x game, and that was enough for me.

And like any Paradox game - give them a couple patches to work out the bugs.

Hmm...  Yeah I didn't love Nemesis, but it's canon and Remans need to be in there somehow.

It's not like a one-off episode that you can frankly ignore.

Overall the general mood online seems to be that this is a decent, but not great game. 7/10, I guess? I will wait for a patch or two before diving in proper, I think.
