One of the worst games I've played this year. After my disappointment with Telltale's The Expanse, a similar choice-oriented game, I started expecting better from this game, but it doesn't even work properly. After I started playing the game, I realized that it was ported from a crappy console to PC, and they didn't even bother to update it months after it was released. Definitely not a game I would recommend playing on PC. As for the other aspects, you can't pay attention to anything else because of the bad optimization and a gameplay that's broken because of it, but the story doesn't seem to be very good either. It makes you choose a little bit of dialog and then it moves the scenes forward by adding ridiculous mini-games in between. The graphics sometimes look good and sometimes very bad and the quality of the animations is terrible. It's almost Mass Effect Andromeda-level mediocrity in facial animations. I don't understand why they bothered to release a broken thing on PC if you have no intention of trying to fix it. Even if I accept that it was problematic when it first came out, I can't accept that almost a year after its release, there are still no updates to fix it in any way.The game doesn't introduce you to the characters, doesn't tell you the story, doesn't explain the terms in the universe, and acts as if you know everything about the Star Trek universe. On the other hand, it makes you do every little thing in the game as if it were a VR game. You pick up something from the ground, you pick it up, you scan the object, you place the object somewhere, it's a horrible gameplay. They extended the 2-hour game to 10 hours by doing this. I also don't understand why it's getting such positive comments and reviews despite all this. If you really like games like this, then you deserve this mediocrity.
