Never watched star trek until now and wow is it Awsome feels like FTL real life action roleplay. Also the first series of star trek is amazing it has a element of the Twilight zone in it seems like lots of mysteries and twistes as least in first two episodes. THERE'S SO MUCH TOO :D 3 seasons of star trek 1966 with like 30 episodes each and a hour long. Plus you got several differnt generations though I don't know how good compared to the original. After watching star trek FTL is a lot more emersive :)

Star Trek is awesome! Original Series is great; so is The Next Generation and Deep Space 9. Voyager is OK, and Enterprise was... meh. DS9 (7 seasons) has an epic story arc and TNG (also 7 seasons) has some of the best individual episodes in all of Trek (IMO). You've got a lot of TV to watch; enjoy!

Before I played FTL, I really hoped it would feel like a Star Trek TOS game, with all sorts of different space-based encounters and opportunities to have crazy, perilous adventures. It turned out to be somewhat different, but I'm still holding out hope for a better representation of that exploring-a-strange-and-wondrous-galaxy feeling. (FTL II perhaps?)

Have you tried Strange Adventures in Infinite Space?
