  • My first blind playthrough of Star Trek Resurgence, slightly edited for length but a live let's play stepping into the shoes of Commander Jara Rydek and Crewman Carter Diaz on the USS Resolute, a Centaur Refit Class science vessel that has fallen on hard times.
    We may have a problem aboard with Miranda while Jara attempts to infiltrait the mines and we uncover a Hotari plot to strand the USS Resolute.

      Agreed. Through Diaz and Edsillar they showed that its the NCOs who actually run a starship, fix any mechanical issues, and do the fighting and dying whenever Starfleet runs into any hostile forces

    The name Resolute made me think something like this may be coming. HMS Resolute was an Arctic Explorer Ship that got stuck in ice and had to be abandoned. Now this Resolute is getting stuck in sone Subspace problem and can’t Warp.

    Spock is MORE than experienced at stalling the Federation's busybodies while a human and crew does something reckless and ill advised. It's basically on his name tag.

    The first time they showed Miranda on the shuttle headed back to the Resolute I noticed she looked dark around the eyes, like she didn't get enough sleep. Later, on the hangar deck the skin around her eyes looked red, like she was getting sick. She doesn't look that way in earlier scenes. I get the feeling she's been infected with something.

      Bit of a late watcher but I made a joke that she's been replaced by some spy or alien and our non-enlisted character will get to say "I kissed that?" when revealed.
      Now I just gotta watch the rest of the series.

      OMG. I thought they had simply made the recordings for this game before Nimoy died, but I guess that just speaks to how damn good that actor is if he can nail Spock that well. I love Ethan pecks Spock, but it doesn't sound anything like Nimoy. This guy is dead on. mind you I am visually impaired and cannot see the screen, so forgive me if there are visual differences that should be obvious.

      @freylaverse Před rokem +2

      @@amandamatheny3675 I mean, visual differences would be there whether they'd gotten Nimoy or not, since it's not one of the oldschool live footage videogames. There is a pretty glaring one, more obvious with Spock, but everyone is affected. For some reason, when characters raise an eyebrow, they raise it from the inner brow instead of the outer. It's SO weird to me, lol.

    24:05 Funny how she mentions not wanting test something unknown around the warp core because it could explode when there are 100+ times when the engineering experiments are done there in the normal shows. Seems like some meta-humor.

    • @daveh7720
      @daveh7720 Před rokem +4

      Yeah, that whole scene where Edsilar wants to test the crystal in Engineering didn't seem right. An engineer isn't going to put their pride and joy (the warp core in this case) at risk to play with a new toy. If they're going to do something risky to the warp core, they're going to do it TO the warp core, not near it.
      Real engineers, that is. Not Starfleet engineers.

    I really enjoyed playing this game, and all of the characters had good models - except Miranda. It was like when they were putting together the character models, they kind of forgot about her. Everyone has good hair, except her. Everyone has good facial expressions, except her. I'm just curious as to why that one character got neglected.

    5:55 - 7:25 When the ship's Chief Science Officer starts badmouthing the XO (main character) to a random crewman (the other main character), he definitely gives a lot of bad vibes 😉

    The secure containment module relies on transporter tech to load unfamiliar and possibly volatile substances that you don't really understand and might react very badly to the process. Brilliant. Can't see how anything could possibly go wrong.

You can hear the struggle between her peaceful nature and the need to be decisive in her voice, even as she makes light of the situation.

    I loved the interaction with Westbrook on the shuttle.
    It shows much the morale of the Resolute is in the toilet, when the senior staff bad-mouths their new XO to an enlisted crewman.
    With at least some the senior staff blaming the Captain for the big accident and the Captain in turn blaming his crew, this is a powder keg waiting to explode at worst possible moment.
    However you turn it, Rydek has her job cut out for her, trying to keep it all together.
    That the Captain is rather transparently using this mission as a bid to salvage his career is not exactly helping either.

      I would've thought there'd be something like an "overcoat" or another type of outwear that would've been more camo-capable for a mission like this.
      That may've meant a new character model though, which could be costly to design for just one section of the game.
