Star Trek Onlinebegins several years after theUSSR Enterprise’spilot, Cyclops, leaves the ship to steer another called thePBS Program Reading Rainbow. During this blue period of theStar Trekuniverse, aliens begin getting in each others’ grills while vying for interstellar dominance and the ability to put their moon flags wherever. It is an interesting period, to say the least.
But say the least, we won’t. The above is one of the first developer diaries forStar Trek Online. Featuring the crew behind the game, the video establishes the time frame in which the MMO occurs. Which is, by the way, 30 years after the filmStar Trek: Nemesis. This is the time when the Romulans, Remans, and Klingons stop being polite and start getting all real up in the galaxy. The Romulans want land, the Klingons wouldn’t mind snatching said land, and the Federation isn’t a fan of either of the two rocking the galactic boat. In other words,STOis heavy stuff, guys.
