I once had the opportunity to consider licensing Star Trek to do a game around. Figuring I couldn't possibly do anything but fuck it up, I passed.

- felipemnoa 15y agoSince you already brought it up and probably piqued the curiosity of more than one reader (including mine), could you elaborate?

- cpeterso 15y agoPerpetual Entertainment somehow acquired an exclusive Star Trek MMO license for (just?) $22M. Curiously, the company then backburnered the Star Trek game and proceeded to build Gods & Heroes, an unrelated game that was the president's pet project. The thinking, I was told, was that Gods & Heroes's subscription revenue would fund Star Trek Online's development. Gods & Heroes's development was funded by investors who thought they were getting a Star Trek MMO.
