If your video game has spoken dialogue in it, make it so that your fucking dialogues don't play on top of each other and make it so that your dialogues don't cut off an already playing dialogue. It sounds like shit and it pisses me off.

Thanks a bunch,

I haven't touched Star Trek Online in many years[1], but this? This here? This might just convince me to reinstall it at some point and give it a whirl again.

Despite my general antipathy toward MMO games, I recall that STO could be played pretty well as a solo/singleplayer game. Only downside being that you had to be online, obviously, and connect to their servers or whatever even just for that.

(EDIT) Welp. I installed it and played it again. Made it only slightly farther than I did the last time I tried it before uninstalling again. Quest bugs and UI/control issues made it too annoying to be worth continuing. Sorry, Wil Wheaton, your presence in this game now just isn't enough to make me want to keep playing it. (/EDIT)

[1] - Steam says last play was on Dec. 16, 2018, but unlike the first attempt years before that in which I'd made it to the end of the available content at the time (though there's probably twice the amount of that available now), that one was an abortive second attempt where I barely made it past the tutorial missions before stopping again.
