Its mechanics are overly simple: players simply place their units where they like, and all other maneuvers are performed automatically. Non-player factions seem especially prone to mounting campaigns of humiliation, which aren’t nearly as impactful as some of the other war causes. In a humiliation war, the only goal is victory - the losing side isn’t forced to concede any territory. There’s always the risk of financial damages in the form of destroyed ships or Starbases, but there’s relatively little at stake here. Players can simply ignore these threats, or surrender before too much harm is done, at little personal cost.","https:\u002F\u002Fscreenrant.com\u002F\u002Fstar-trek-infinite-pc-review\u002F","2023-10-31",{"id":120,"author":121,"outlet":124,"summary":129,"review_url":130,"review_date":13,"original_score":131,"normalized_score":92},76899,{"id":122,"name":123},5842,"Nick Petrasiti",{"id":125,"logo":126,"name":127,"website_url":128,"score_format":88},56,"https:\u002F\u002Fcdn.criticdb.com\u002Fstorage\u002Fv1\u002Fobject\u002Fpublic\u002Favatars\u002FOutlets\u002FTheSixthAxis-Logo.jpg","TheSixthAxis","https:\u002F\u002Fwww.thesixthaxis.com\u002F","Star Trek: Infinite gives us a damn solid 4X experience doused in the rich history of the Star Trek universe, and with plenty of space to include more Deep Space Nine, Voyager and other quadrants of the galaxy through expansions.
