Star Trek Legacy's Plot Left Behind on Away Mission
Much like the deleted content from KOTOR 2, Xbox 360 fanboy has word that Star Trek: Legacy's storyline has been cut as well. Derek Chester, a writer for the game, spoke up on the official boards for the game: "[Forum poster] Star Dagger is correct, a lot of what was intended was cut. From rendered cinematics and interstitial cutscenes to a great deal of backstory and events that took place between the eras to tie them together. The total portrayal of the intended story was incomplete. Dorothy and I wrote a lot for this game...but not everything made it in. As a result there may be some difficulty in following the motivations for characters or the reasons for crucial events. The story as was written, tied together a great deal of Trek history and events to make it seem more substantial than it came across in the final game."
I miss the days of long games.. i don't want something with 8-12 hours of game play.. i want stuff with alteast amonth.. remember C&C how long it took to play through.. and the Orginal Unreal dear god how the hell they put that much story line on a single CD still blows my mind compared to the crap that comes out today..
I don't need photo realistic c's i want a damn story - if you can give both i will take them but if you don't have a story and lots of game play then i woln't bother

They should release the full story line on some web page (either in text form, unfinished cinematic scenes, etc). It's like deleted scenes in a movie that actually do add to the movie (ex: Superman Returns special edition dvd), you can enjoy them and have a richer experience if you want it. However, the cut-story should still be made to stand on its own.
