Way WAAAAY too many mechanics for a portable game with an emphasis on story and characters. Requires an absurd amount of dedication and personal time investment for very little to no return. Would in fact be easier to pilot an actual starfleet. Also the main character wants to fuck his sister.
Like a really good show you remember from the 80's that felt a lot better than Transformers or He-Man and then you find out later it was actually a show from Japan called Macross
It's trite but literally like playing a cartoon. We went from Garfield and Friends to Animaniacs with this one. Superbly excellent buffet table of a video game.
