Finished the game now. Gotta say, they stick the landing. All in all, this is certainly a bit of a rough ride on the technical and "gameplay" side but honestly, for me as a die hard Trekkie, the really nice Star Trek story, the well developed characters and a pretty spectacular voice cast made it into a really nice experience. I give it 8/10 artifact induced warpfield disrupting spatially localized subspace inversions.

a pretty spectacular voice cast made it into a really nice experience. Having Liara throw a tantrum, because I didn't bomb the site of an ancient civilization, was a bit of a hard pill. Totally bombing them next time!

Totally bombing them next time! Ah th classic damned if you d odamned if yo udon' t moment because I blew it up and pissed Portal off in doing so but as Liara said I was trying to safe guard ou rcrew but as I fouin dout I don' t think it really matters later given the enemy has this transformer gun which he targets you with. Liara clearly got a bit bloodthirsty there must be all that fighting Reapers.

But I habve t oadmit it was fun and I will b going throug hagain with different choices. I did like the fac tin theend our character officially becomes Captain of the ship. After goin through that stuff with her condition she deserved it I think.

After goin through that stuff with her condition she deserved it I think. I also liked that it wasn’t an entirely happy ending. I was totally convinced that we’d find a way to reverse the bioforming. The fact that we didn’t and that we see all the coffins in the end, not to mention losing one of our player characters to the transformation gave the whole story a lot more gravitas, I thought and Kara’s final log entry, saying that this kind of curiosity we have always comes with a cost was very apt. Overall nicely done. It reminded me a little bit of Picard’s final log in A Final Unity, which is still one of my favorites. As for Liara: She resigned in my game, which is probably for the best. With her attitude, she had no business being in Starfleet.

She was so after getting into Jara's pants from Day 1, that I was scared another ninjamance is coming. But apparently falling for Jara was an all around thing for many characters. Back, Liara! Down, girl! We ain't genociding that ancient race. We are Starfleet, not quarter Krogan, ffs! We'll bang, ok? Don't resign.

Hmmm, I had the impression, Starfleet Liara was more of a Jara groupie rather than actually looking for a relationship there. I rather got the feeling there were the occasional sparks flying with Tylas or am I overinterpreting this?
Either way, Miranda's and Carter's "flirt" scene was the shittiest writing I have ever seen for something like this (and probably also the worst dialogue in the game). This made the awkward BioWare romances look like Romeo & Juliet level love epics by comparison. Honestly, I have submitted tax forms that were steamier than that dialogue
