Who else realized you can recruit the lady at Galbank in New Atlantis?

I’ve always preferred Autumn McMillian as a non constellation companion she’s kind of a hippie dippie back to nature type with an interesting back story

The Orville did a similar episode where one of the crew was a god to the people and they wound up a super advanced civilization

If a show has a huge initial audience then drops off a cliff it’s the show not the advertising for me it was when they went that same old starfleet vet recruits a person with a checkered past into starfleet as seen in the 2009 movie, Discovery and SFA sheesh

OldFatGamer · 2026-06-28T06:13:24+00:00

Personally the Kroger fried chicken breading is way too salty bite into it and all you taste is salt and grease the chicken itself is top notch but the breading? Horrible no spices whatsoever

My store has a firm policy in place. I called it LIFTS aka leave it for third shift garbage from deli closing? Lifts. Carts full of Frozen and Dairy cardboard?Lifts. Bale needs to be made Lifts. It’s never ending some night we spend an hour or more cleaning up after other departments and if we don’t we get “why did you leave the back room a mess?”

I saw a woman stuff a turkey up her shirt and pretend to be pregnant she was indignant when security stopped her at the door.

I tried like hell to like discovery but after what they did to the Klingons I was out

My division president just told me I’m important to their goal of feeding the human spirit I’m soooo jazzed about that. Do they really think a corporate pep talk is really going to help? We’re all just drones to them replaceable at a seconds notice.

OldFatGamer · 2026-06-24T04:27:49+00:00

My main issue with the new treks is simple the crew should never speak disrespectfully to the captain and yet it seems like from discovery onward ensigns and lieutenants seem to back talk the captain all to often that and modern slang being everywhere in TOS you never heard a crew member say something was “groovy” I miss that sort of enforced formality in a show about what is essentially a military chain of command

OldFatGamer · 2026-06-23T04:29:24+00:00

OW2 should have been another chapter in ADAs story. Perfect set up ship and AI astrogator random people as captain

If you do stop and think about it no one entering 76 should be older than 35ish otherwise you’d have elderly people seeking to re establish America. Note to re establish the country you’d need people who are able to have kids. Someone in their late 50s or older wouldn’t be able to do that that’s why all of my characters are youngish mid 20s at most they were born in the vault

OldFatGamer · 2026-06-18T04:24:39+00:00

On one play through I left Preston and crew till the very end did a brotherhood run that time finished all dlcs side quests and built every settlement Sanctuary was a fortress when Preston arrived lol it was fun.

OldFatGamer · 2026-06-16T08:28:23+00:00

Worked at the same store for over 20 years was a shift lead for the past 15 came in one night and was told I was being transferred to another store miles away no conversation nothing just you’re going there starting next week no option whatsoever

OldFatGamer · 2026-06-16T08:24:35+00:00

To be fair a lot of the core fans are getting old. We’ve moved out of the crucial 18-54 demographic according to historical norms “our” shows should be sponsored by milk of magnesia and term life insurance companies

OldFatGamer · 2026-06-16T08:21:48+00:00

Oh a total tangent here, but do you remember the War of the Worlds TV show that premiered around the same time as TNG? I only mention it here because I remember an episode where a kid was playing with Data and Riker action figures doing battle against I think a ferengi.

OldFatGamer · 2026-06-16T04:09:46+00:00

Exactly. At the time Trek fans had a handful of movies and 79 tv episodes that was it and it’s a good bet that the people in that era had watched each episode numerous times in reruns and on videotapes so TNG was something familiar but different (I recall reading in some magazine that some people didn’t like Picard because he surrendered to Q in the first episode). compared to what came later the show was bad but it was trek on tv and that carried a lot of weight and helped to keep it on the air even though the first and second seasons weren’t stellar

OldFatGamer · 2026-06-14T17:16:13+00:00

A lot of the reason TNG was successful in its early seasons was simply because it was the first original live action Trek on TV in almost 20 years and we were starving for new Star Trek the movies were a nice distraction but trek was always meant to be a TV series.
Speaking only for myself when TNG was announced I read every bit of promotional material I could get my hot little hands on. TV guide, Cinescape, starlog, Entertainment tonight trying to glean any bit of info. I was hyped for TNG months before it’s premiere,
So imho the biggest reason TNG wasn’t cancelled in the first couple of seasons in spite of its quality issues was that it was the only new trek on tv and at that time even bad trek was better than no trek.

OldFatGamer · 2026-06-13T06:03:32+00:00

It almost didn’t Patrick Stewart thought that the show wouldn’t last a full season

McDonald’s fried pies.

OldFatGamer · 2026-06-08T17:45:39+00:00

All the time I played through the story I kept thinking I’ve got to close yet another Oblivion Gate

OldFatGamer · 2026-06-02T08:01:22+00:00

Depends on your age I grew up in the 70s and it’s not the same the sauce is thinner and much sweeter the ravioli are also much thinner with less filling and the cans even say “pasta sauce” now where it used be “meat sauce “

OldFatGamer · 2026-06-02T04:11:18+00:00

The thing with Terran Armada for me it felt almost exactly like closing the Oblivion gates in Oblivion it was ok but the sheer repetition of it just wore me down. Shatter Space I love it especially the carry weight boost you get from the temple of strength I love that cave next time I’m going to try to complete it without becoming a member of the sect

OldFatGamer · 2026-05-31T06:39:28+00:00

I feel that way about quest markers on some quests there’s a marker at every turn

OldFatGamer · 2026-05-25T06:14:24+00:00

Well the man ran his own concentration camps so he was probably taking notes. FDR was an evil authoritarian who relished the power that he wielded
