Almost makes me want to reinstall - Star Trek Voyager: Elite Force

I am looking forward to trying the demo once I close out my projectsater this week.

The screenshots look cool.

I just played through the demo in one sitting. I like it. Based on the demo, it's already one of the better Star Trek games.

"Choose your own adventure", with mild RPG elements and resource management, and a bit of XCom-base-building style ship repairs/upgrades. Bit of mild tactical combat.

It's hard to tell at this stage whether the resource management will make things interesting or grindy and painful... but it's pretty much a definite buy for me. Might feel a bit shallow for some.

Ran on my laptop, in Linux in Proton without anything except clicking "Play".

Thanks for the feedback. I generally prefer more in-depth games, but sometimes it's nice to play something a bit more streamlined and relaxed.

Sounds promising.
