To be fair, it wasn't 'that' good from what I heard. There is little reason to play it over the Stellaris Star Trek mod, if I'm not mistaken. If you are interested in the Star Trek mod, it's called Star Trek: New Civilisations. It's super up to date as well. The last update was on the 1st of April.

It's actually "ST: New Horizons" and yeah, when Star Trek: Infinite came out I was like "Why would anyone pay money for this? This is just 1/3rd of the New Horizons mod with a fresh coat of paint."

You aren't wrong, but neither am I. There are actually two different Star Trek total conversion mods for Stellaris: ST: New Horizons and Star Trek: New Civilisations. I think ST: New Horizons is a bit better, but ST: New Civilisations is newer. Either way, both are excellent Star Trek-themed mods and both are in active development.

Oh, word!

I haven't played Stellaris in a year or two so ofc I haven't heard about civilizations yet; that aside yeah it was a baffling choice to make Infinite, especially since I'm assuming Paradox had to get licensing for it which couldn't have been cheap.
