Class of 2409, Report for Duty! | Star Trek Online
Stuff on the new tutorial. Gonna be honest, I think it's a mistake. The current tutorial certainly has a problem with going from fighting the Klingons to then suddenly fighting the borg, but going from that to doubling down on the borg sounds worse.
1. We're probably going to lose Captain Taggart's badass death, in place of a much lamer one where he just gets assimilate.
2. The game already has a rather glaring problem where the Borg attack, assimilate an entire colony and establish a foothold in federation space, something that should be all means be a major, major problem. It's never mentioned again and as soon as you get back to ESD you're sent off to go check in a freighter having engine trouble. To say this mood shift is.....an understatement, and I can't help but think that putting even more focus on the Borg is a mistake, because it will only make things worse.
3. It doesn't address the biggest issue with the federation playthrough, namely the fact that several key bits of information are only revealed in the TOS Fed tutorial and mission arc, which regular fed characters do not have access to.
