Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
If you can conscript a friend that already did all the grinding and spending to carry you through the story content you want to see - do that.
86 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
The voice acting is great, the missions are lots of fun, and they genuinely give some interesting extensions to Star Trek stories.
12 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Multiplayer
Players who bring up Multiplayer mostly praise it.
The game needs some love, long running bugs that haven't been resolved, the player content story lines were removed years ago to stream line support, and PVP is pretty much non existent (I appreciate this).
