I was definitely hoping for some sort of overhaul. The game used to run extremely well on my laptop, but now it doesn't. I feel an overhaul of the engine is what they need to keep things going forward.

I've been having problems too to be honest.
My friend says she can run it on nice settings and I need to run it very low for it not to get laggy. Yet I can run ToR on medium to high settings along with shadows and be alright in most cases, she says she has to run ToR on low.

I have 16 gigs of ram and I need to run almost everything rather low to avoid system lag.

My choke point is my graphics card. My i5 2400 3.10GHz quad core can handle the load, but my puny radeon HD 2400 XT can't handle much more than Youtube videos. My sliders are all the way to the left and my /resolutionscale is 0.5. Everybody runs around in their underwear on my screen.
Oh, and I have 16GB RAM. So that's not an issue.

16BG of ram is actually the norm for even high-end gaming systems (almost always in 2 sticks of 8GB for Dual Channel). Unless you're playing games that are Ram Hungry like Skyrim (w/ mods), Cities Skylines (w/ Mods, although this is also a CPU heavy title), Kerbal Space Program (a very taxing games for Ram, CPU and GPU, as it's a Space Orbital Physics simulator), or doing content creation (Video Editing, Photomanipulation, etc), then 32gb is overkill.
That being said, 6gb is a little low for STO, as you have to factor in Modern OS overhead into the equation as well. STO's base requirements need 2GB free for just the game, 4gb if you're running the 'Recommended' system requirements, but those are from when the game launched, a lot more has been added to the game and the ram requirements have gone up somewhat. I would say that 8GB minimum should be the new requirement.
