It's really hard to imagine what the game was like before. Although you can definitely still see the foundations, the game has definitely evolved since
On a side note, I wouldn't call it a dedicated Mac game, as it is just a wrapper itself and has many Mac players frustrated. I use a Mac but I use wine to run it and it runs near perfectly
Great article

Thanks you for the compliments.
As per the Mac wrapper, I didn't know it was just a wrapper. This was an error on my part, thanks for the information.
I'd also agree in a way it's hard to remember what STO was like in the beginning. I can see it, and think how did that work or how did the game survive.

Yeah, all I can say is that I very much like what STO is now, it reflects the Trekiness very nicely in my opinion

As someone who has and does play many different mmo's but I'm pretty new to STO.This was great to read,gives me a glimpse of where the game started and to where it is now.
Reminds me actually of an old friend who i knew was a huge star trek fan and sci fi lover,i asked him hey what's the word on STO,which eventually lead to him saying how horrible at launch the game was but ended with him saying how far the game has come to change all that and it's pretty solid these days if you're a fan of star trek.

Enjoyed reading this. Well written, and I have to agree: change has, overall, been good for STO.
