It's pretty good! Between it and 1995's Star Trek: The Next Generation - A Final Unity, I'd say adventure games are the perfect fit for Trek-style stories. The Telltale formula is a little on rails sometimes, and a lot of the actual gameplay is silly little tricorder puzzles, but it's basically an engine to provide you with classic, "You need to make a snap decision, who's plan are you going with?" moments like these.
I enjoyed my time with resurgence. I can't see non-trekkies enjoying it because TBH, the controls, combat, and mini-games are all frustratingly awful. However, the story, characters, and choices were all great! I was slightly disappointed overall though. I was hoping it would be unequivocally great and demonstrate a market for more Trek games, but it's clearly lacking in some areas and didn't have much impact upon release.
Same. I know being an Epic Games Store exclusive gives you a lot of runway during your development period, but that probably didn't help them when it came to going viral post-launch. Still, if you're up for having two digital libraries, it's an easy pickup with all those holiday coupons they toss around.
Right, I forgot it was epic exclusive on PC. That definitely will not have helped. I played it on console and it definitely suits a relaxed TV playing experience, like playing an episode.
