An interesting idea for a LORE FRIENDLY Star Trek Mod/Adventure

So hear me out, even if your not as Star Trek fan or agree with this post I still think this will be a nifty mod.

 

So understand i know little to nothing about how to mod or the complexity of how its done, but instead of simply saying I want a Star Trek mod, here an template for someone, IMO, who even if they are Star Trek fans or not they could still make it without any crazy game play unreasonable game play modifications.

 

As iv watched a lot Star Trek with friends and family (specifically younger family who requires a lot of pausing and translations and (which is more then worth it as it leads to amazing conversations that most adults would have a hard time holding let alone a child but I digress) a simple and easey summary for the race in the Star Trek Universe called the Borg, their basically a lot like space zombies, who go around with their advance ships assimilating with force everything they find of any value., how ever the beings that in a sense represent the borg who all operate as a hive mind mentality, in many ways behave like zombies, relying on their advance technology and massive numbers to take most of their targets by force. Where most races that are Faster Then Light capable in Star Trek rely on some type on energy base weaponry.

 

To put it simply that is :smile:

 

Now at this point your wondering where im going, and if your not a star trek fan(or are) your possibly wondering if I ever leave my house... this reasonable.. but hear me out as i want to make sure my idea is clearly represented, even to someone who inst a fan of the show.

 

Anywho, the borg how ever are invulnerable to brute strength and crude chemical based projectile weapons (That would be guns in English lol) Star Trek fans please reference Star Trek Destiny, combating the borg with riffles.

 

Well, the feral ghoul in many way behave like a borg drone, hence my early zombie/walker comparison, and in my opinion while the finer details (machine implants, laser, creepy voice resistance sucks eta.) will be a pain in the but, i believe the overhaul of the ghoul to turn it into a Star Trek Borg shouldn't be that hard... then again, like i said.. I have no idea what im talking about lol.

 

So, while all this is nice their still has to be substance, context... you know.. a freaking point to the whole thing. This is where the beauty writing, creativity and imagination can thrive at this point, even if your not a Star Trek fan. If you watch Star Trek then you should know they have a way of connecting things and events, between different universe, dimensions, crazy god like creature who flicks his fingers and brings who knows where.. or if you think Galactica, or one of SG1 strange but somewhat cool looking aircraft like ships, then your stupid... jk... kinda.

 

Point is you can insert what ever you want, Even a differnt star trek allein agressor or friend, better yet make up a species all to your self but for a basic template here is what id put in if I had the power to put these words into Fallout 4 PC content.

 

Worf (huge turtle head like creature who is a known and accepted psychopath but a REALLY good character) is going through time and space trying to bring back the love of his life (bla bla bla) and has lead him The Commonwealth. He became aware that small pockets of the remainder of humanity in an alternate universe where we harnessed the atom way better yet in the end still killed each other. Wile everyone is attempting to rebuild and struggle with not only getting along but just staying fed, sensor detected a borg presence. He needs someone with some influence and who can blend in to assist him in dealing with the threat. Which again, thanks to creative writing and script can be anything you want. Help out the desperate klingon looking to revive his dead wife, or steal the borg tech and see how many caps it can get you.. what ever.

 

For those who play the less then moral path, switch out Worf with a fella called Gul Dukat. Easy writing their to accommodate all of... Fallouts more... interesting side.

 

One may think that what kind of quest or adventure that relates to Star Trek that Fallout can do, but Star Trek, like in many ways Fallout series and other creative forms of expression (Many people from star trek do voices in the Fallout series) is, IMO, great when you can settle a conflict with the some well thought actions or the proper things to say or do. We can just have a simple quest that tells a basic story... of love, adventure, life, universe, all of the above, or none... skys the limit. Not everything needs to end with gunning them down with a 1911 or simply reducing the enemy to dust with a phaser/energy weapon. Prehaps, add the option that once everything is said and done, the drones will still occasanly show up and try to cause havok to add a lasting affect to the game. Not to mention an excuse to bring a batleth and a DS9/VOY hand phaser to Fallout 4. Again... plenty room to add your own twist.

 

Why is this lore friendly? Like i said, Star Trek... well.. enough said. Not to mention as I understand Fallout takes place around Star Trek times, and.. ohh yeah google the game Star Trek Legacy. A cross over isnt as crazy as it may sound.

 

Thank you for reading my idea and if its far fetch then sorry for wasting everyone's time, perhaps I inspired something in someone else. Please let me know your thoughts or if your interested in a free advisor to help with content and/or direction. Good challenge for anyone looking for a change a pace! lol
