Oh Hell no, I don’t push the button!
It said shifting into the Star Trek universe; it didn’t say anything about time travel or ending up on a planet other than Earth.
Also thanks to Discovery’s writers, in the further away future there’s also a few centuries of dogshit living until they restore the Federation
I still do not recognise this shit as being part of star trek.
STD was so bad, kurtzman needs to lay his hands of TREK forever.
Oh no…
Yep, we are on track already to live in the star trek universe. We just have to live through WW3 first and it will be paradise.
World War III ends and Earth is left devastated, mostly because of nuclear warfare. Most of the major cities are left in ruins with few remaining governments and the death total reaching 600 million.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeline_of_Star_Trek
Push the button. Only 600 million is a generous offer. This timeline will have many more.
The 40k timeline is basically just normal Earth for a few more centuries at least. The Emperor is just out there, somewhere, fucking with shit.
In fact, there would be a golden age on the horizon
Yeah ironically it would probably be better to be in the 40k universe if it was current day.
It’s basically Star Trek for like a millennium or so if I recall. Things didn’t always suck so hard in 40k, it took a while for it to become the grimdark hell it is in the 42nd century
There’s at least a period where you can be a kick ass cyborg building megastructures without too much body horror at a minimum
Well, everyone dies. Both options seem more interesting than a cult of idiots worshipping an orange idiot.
It says transported. That could definitely mean time travel and/or another planet
Obviously. And it could also mean neither of those
What the LILE
or if its the terran empire
So I get transported to a futuristic utopia with Replicators and Holodecks, or I immediately get killed by a Space Marine or whatever.
Either way I don’t have to live in this shithole any more. 🤷♂️ I’m pressing it.
With all the endless war the Imperium is so huge most of the humans probably never saw war and space marines are so rare it’s almost impossible for you to be killed by them.
Even on “safe” planets, the average person is basically a slave doing endless, arduous labor with no concern for their lives or well-being, all under the merciless thumb of Imperial dogma. It’s just a bad place to end up.
Wait… Are you talking about 40k or current day ?
Yes.
So like… No different than here.
That’s literally the point most of it is just hyper reality.
You narrowly avoid Warhammer as you see you’re on the Enterprise. You’re called for a mission. Shortly before you’re beamed down you see it. You look down.Your heart starts racing. You’re wearing a red shirt.
Still a more merciful death than Warhammer, I’d guess
Still better than dark eldar
Dude just send me back to the '90s pls.
As Agent Smith said of '90s New South Wales, “the Matrix was redesigned to this, the peak of your civilization”.
I wonder how the robots understood that peak civilization is being 12 and riding your bike all day every day with no supervision.
When talking about the Star Trek universe, it’s important to designate both what time and which one.
Before first contact in any universe? No.
Prime universe? Sure.
Kelvin? Sure, why not?
Mirror universe? No.
Totally-not-the-mirror-universe-from-Picard? Fuck no.
You get transported to the Trek prime universe. You come out at Wolf-359, and the Borg approach.
I, for one, welcome our new Borg overlords.
Ever heard any of the Borg complain about being Borg?
i mean 7 didn’t think it was great post-de-borging
Well, fuck. Forgot about that one.
T.b.h, Star Trek universe outside of Federation is also mostly dogshit…
Flee to federation space, theres ships going everywhere, maybe you even get to be a a
Kajit or ArgonianCaitan or Gorn.But the button said nothing about transmogrification into other races…
And being a human among Gorn might really suck.On a completely different note:
Being a (decent) human among Khajit might be fun! :-)Just paint yourself green and insist you’re a fellow
orkgornDAKKA, WEN THE WAGON GO FASTAH
humans outside of the federation are treated with xenophobia sentiment mostly. one of the overarching themes, is that non-federation races dont like the expansionist nature of the federation, also the assimilation/melting pot of other cultures. one tng episode, where the native americans decided to leave earth 200years before tng, to find a world of thier own, said the federation became too homogenized in thier culture, and lost its unique identities.
originally cardassians and KLINGONs before allying with the humans. romulans, SHeliak, paxans,tholians, and the now defunct marquis. since STD isnt really accepted by most fans to be canon, the federation stopped expanding over that 900 years, i think the influences got stretched way too thin by then.
Warhammer 40K universe in 2025 would just be the Event Horizon universe 22 years before Event Horizon. ;)

In other words, about as safe as real life if youre a normal person. We’ve got a lot of time before crazy shit starts happening, and a golden age coming up as well.
Pro… you’re transported to the Star Trek Universe. Con… it’s still year 2025.
Yay, united Ireland!
So we skip past Picard S2 at least, just in time for the temporally displaced Eugenics Wars.
Pro: You get transported in Star Trek
Con: …. It’s Discovery
Pro: You get transported to the Star Trek universe
Con: It isn’t to ship, or a planet
I mean, Deep Space 9 didn’t seem like a bad place to set up shop
Checked the comments for this, thanks for not disappointing. Good luck on the 40k universe
You get transported into the Star Trek universe.
But
You will be transported by the Star Trek transporter.
Is that still you?
Either I’m in the star trek universe or I’m dead and some other smhuck has to live with my choices
Yes, unless consciousness is more than the totality of our biology and there really is a soul or something erather.
I would give my best Matt Damon in Interstellar “… that’s the best chance I have had in years.” And then smash my face jnto the button as hard as I could.
So I go to the 40k universe and all of the other beings are the size of my pinkie…
They all attack you at once
Transported as I currently am? No chance of being some other race like Vulcan Hybrid or maybe a 40k psyker?
Nah, I’m good.
Hell yes I’ll press. Either place is better than this
And now we wait for the replies… :)
I mean
In the 40k universe I’d probably die very very fast unless I became a target to one of those BDSM Elves?
unless I became a target to one of those BDSM Elves?
Fuck. That.
