Are both routes bugged, or is the reddit post trollish, or something else?

We had the opposite shared in our Discord, copied from a Reddit post that said doing the Tutorial and not doing the steps in order similarly caused unrecoverable housing bugs, and recommending skipping the tutorial.

It's not so cut and dry - when the servers end in 10+ years, the ability to install Day 1 patches of the games will also likely be lost, and so we might still lose out on accessing special unlocks if loading the game(s) up on a "new" console, even if we have the physical carts.

I always put Voyager up on my tree for the same reason.

To people overseas:
In Japanese, 1121 can be read as “ii-bui,” which sounds like “Eevee.”
Because of this wordplay, November 21st is celebrated as Eevee Day!
(It originally started among fans, but it’s now used officially as well.)

And the other half of the Internet goes down if AWS has an outage.

I think they actually believed they were using the ENT finale to "close out 18 years of continuous 'Trek" in a meaningful way. The episode just failed to live up to the hype of both a series and franchise finale.

Once I learned it the ? was Staryu I figured it was likely nighttime spawns. Didn’t occur to me there’d be different day/night spawns initially due to Z-A Royale also being a nighttime feature, so thought I was seeking a rare spawn instead.

Why'd I hear the "my child" part in Kai Winn's voice?

DilEx graph for Sept 2025

Not just actors. Those 26-episode seasons of the TNG era also burnt out the writers.

And instead of giving the writers a break between the shows, they did TNG->VOY->ENT back to back for 18 years of constant 'Trek, with an overlap of DS9 for the latter seasons of TNG and most of VOY's run.

Any why exclude "Kathryn" from Janeway's name when every other character is represented by their full name?
(Also, not including Kirk's middle initial was a choice)

I had a busy day yesterday and wasn't able to comment upon the latest developments. The DilEx backlog spiked another 500k between Thursday and Friday mornings, from 14,901,465 to 15,484,868. We added another ~200k since then, and we're now over 15,680,000.

These are my first observations over 15M

What’s disappointing is that Prodigy would make the perfect bridge from Scouts to “adult” Trek series, and as far as we know it disappears into limbo once Netflix stops offering S3 later this year.

It was a long shot, but we expected that’d likely be the case. Thanks anyway, and we’ll continue hoping he’s able to log in again soon.

I don't know, at this point maybe the fandom deserves to have their beloved franchise die out with them and be forgotten. That's all the gatekeeping would really accomplish.

Also, for once, Kurtzman has nothing to do with it (to our knowledge).
