![]() ![]() ![]() If you're a die hard fan of Trek, you'll no doubt struggle your way through this and say "Okay, well I had a time". The controls are horrendous, pressing all the way to the right or left makes your reticle slowly crawl it's way to it's destination, and that's frustrating because half of this gameplay is like "Move this dot over that dot and press RT". You don't really get to explore anything, you don't really get to wander your ship, you get to SEE things happening but you don't get the feeling your ever actually involved in this game at all. It's absolutely, without a doubt, the most basic mind-numbing experience I've ever come across in about 30 years of playing video games, and that's a shame. Most of the "gameplay consists of (Hold LS) or (Press RT + Hold LS) or (Move RS and Press RT to scan). The story is okay, but it would have taken an incredible bunch of writers to turn this fairly anemic plot into a 10 hour episode, and essentially that's what you're getting here because there is very little in the way of gameplay. That's basically all of the positives I have to say. Star Trek Resurgence has a few good things going for it, it takes us back to a TNG era setting free of all the random mayhem, bloodshed, hypocrisy, drug use and F-Bombs that the current iterations of Trek provide (Picard i'm looking at you.) They have managed to recreate the look and feel of the older series quite well.

Otherwise, avoid until it's half price or free. ![]() Overall, if you're a Trekkie, I'd say you'll enjoy the story and overlook the technical failings. This game should have been delayed another year. Add to that a soundtrack from 1995 and missing dialogue, which is often key to the decisions you have to make. While the character models are reasonable, the amount of tearing, laggy framerates and 2010 animation is poor. That said - and I appreciate the size of the team that made it - but to release a video game in 2023 and charge £35, with this standard of technical quality is inexcusable. The decisions feel weighty and the fast time element does add excitement to the moment. It really is like an interactive episode.
