If I could sum up STO in 3 words it'd likely be:
SERVER NOT RESPONDING
Ok, so that's a bit harsh, but over the course of a few hours, it's something I did encounter several times.
It's actually not a bad game. you get a quest, warp to a certain area, and investigate. Investigations usually come in several parts, one typically involves some sort of ship combat and the other planetary combat. Hail starfleet, hand in and collect reward, then either head back to Sol to upgrade or do the next quest.
But I like it.
Granted, I only probably like it because it's coated in Star Trek, but hey, that's what they're going for, right?

Star Trek Online - what was I thinking?
A few hours ago I caved, and purchased Star Trek Online on Steam. My bad.
I've always loved Star Trek, despite finding it hypocritical that a species of our selfish volatility would do a show in which we're the peaceful explorers of the galaxy, surrounded by the aggressive, warmongering types.
Oh the irony.
It's academic, at any rate, because Steam is reporting that "your purchase is still being processed", and I can't do anything with it. No, it won't even let me start downloading the client files.
I can log into my bank's internet banking though, and I see the transaction for it listed, clear as day.
Money I wish I could get back, truth be told.
