Good morning everyone,
The game does a 'fair' job of getting the characters personalities across, but it's really clear that its aimed at people who already have seen the show up through the middle of the first season. It is great that Kate Mulgrew is voicing Janeway in more than just Star Trek Online, but I noticed something weird with the voice over work and audio mixing is a little weird, such as I could hear Dal's voice actor literal breathing into the microphone, or some dialog being mixed to sound quieter than it should've been. I'm going to assume either some audio takes were used because of a rushed development cycle
Which does lead into another, in that for a game that is cross-gen on the Xbox side, saying that its optimized for Xbox Series consoles is a bit of a stretch, because I did notices some actual frame rate issues at times. There was also an instant where the controls were not responding forcing for a reload of a check point, and much like the stuff with the audio, I'm chocking it up to a rushed development cycle.
So why am I saying that? Well too be honest, Star Trek Prodigy: SuperNova is clearly a budget title to some degree, while visually it's not a bad looking game, it is clearly aimed at those who have seen the shown, which is a young audience. and while someone who is 10 may not notices (or care) about the things I noticed, I personally would say nab it when it's on sale, and preferably with another person, because it will make the game play experience more enjoyable.
That said, I'm looking forward to continuing it next Monday! On a side note. Star Trek Prodigy: Supernova isn't listed over on Hover

Starting righting the NXT short story commission request based on a match result at the recent Halloween Havoc last month, I think the intro is solid enough to justify the post-match shenanigans.
I used to be addicted to the hokey pokey but then I turned myself around.
