Star Trek: Legends returns to the Nexus

Star Trek: Legends is a new video game allowing crossovers between different eras, a popular choice for Trek games, and for this one the creative team looked to the Nexus from Star Trek: Generations as the way in, looking at how it works in depth, after considering some other options from the setting.

Is it just a natural phenomenon? What is the reason for its destructive rifts? Why does every person who enters it find themselves in their own heaven? The effect of the Nexus – this utopic world it creates for you – seemed like a good place to start our deep-dive into the nature of this realm. It seemed to us like a phenomenon created by design.

The USS Artemis is not as on-the-nose as the Orpheus would have been, so points for that.

Sounds fun, I say as someone who has none of the platforms it’s on, but I appreciate the behind-the-scenes look at the worldbuilding involved.
