I do agree that the asking price is what’s keeping more people from adopting VR. However, a few people who reviewed STBC stated it was the best VR game put out thus far. This game is what caused to get off the fence and plunk down the $450 for the Playstation VR core unit and the STBC game. I’m hopeful they continue to develop and sell game packs as I will happily buy them. After 7+ years of mediocre STO, I’m ready for any other ST game to make a dent in this genre.

On the subject of Star Trek: Discovery;
I have a theory that CBS knew about the upcoming controversy when an adult-based star trek series was announced. In fact, they knew it a good 7 years prior!
CBS had a long running series that spawned 5 spin-offs, but we will be concerned with the main one (said series was CSI: Crime Scene Investigation). During season 9, they aired an episode titled “A Space Oddity” (Episode #20, April 16, 2009). Very briefly, the episode revolved around the investigation of a murder at a sci-fi convention after the announcement of a beloved sci-fi series being rebooted for modern day audiences.
I can’t speak for anyone else, but I see some parallels between the written episode and the public outcry we are witnessing today. I’m just thankful that nobody has been killed (at least, nobody that I know of).

Wonderful show everyone, Thanks Ryon for visiting.
I love all of the public events for lol favors.Normally i just run my main the whole time for everything, but this year he doesnt need any marks. Instead i will run him for the ship and have one or 2 others actually breed animals. I may also need one of the new pets.

Just wanted to make a quick comment about your assessment of the Enterprise series being mediocre except for season 4. I beg to differ. I though the Xindi story arc in season 3 was phenomenal and explored a myriad of issues including trust, racism and honor. Granted these types of issues aren’t new to the “Trek” universe but I still felt as if the Xindi story arc was done (for the most part) very well and in a way that made characters like Gralik and Degra very compelling. Honestly if it wasn’t for the Xindi storyline I may never have finished the series. Season 4 was garbage by comparison 🙂 Keep up the good work on the podcast! I’m a new listener as of today (June 8th, 2017) and I’ll try and stick with you guys. I also play STO so getting updates on that in addition to general “Trek” news is awesome.
