As someone who came into the series at elden ring, I agree with you. I initially tried a mage and it felt quite a bit more difficult than sword and board.

The game felt like it was designed for physical weapons and shield, whereas with magic the difficulty was all over the place - easy time with one boss, nearly impossible on another. If you aim for a boss cheese build maybe magic is easier.

It really bothered me that they didn't even mention the doctor, what with seven of nine being there and the ai plotline. But after watching more of Picard, I'm glad they didn't and especially glad they mostly steered clear of ds9.

There is an episode later where Data defends the rights of a less-human-looking artificial life (the one with exocomps), though no courtroom scenes.

I think most star trek episodes can be torn apart pretty easily - I actually enjoy pointing out errors while I watch. But it's good drama and themes with fun characters in an optimistic future, which is still a rarity decades later.

Also who says "anyone can become president"? Liars and the gullible, I guess

What's wrong with whacking it to sports illustrated? Who is being harmed?

Don't like the sound of that

Didn't the huge group of humans that could never agree on anything all decide to go live without technology with cave men at the end? It's been a very long time since I watched it but I remember hating that. iirc there were some unresolved plot lines too, but I don't remember enough to list them. I was a huge fan of the early seasons.

Yes, it's this one. What a god awful episode.

You always finish an entire TV series?

Do you just remember where you are in every show (or movie that you only partway watched)? That's the biggest appeal of jellyfin/plex to me, so I can go in and continue from where I left off without keeping track.

Agreed. I saw this and thought it looked beautifully passive aggressive
