Damn Wesley Crusher wants to become God in the MMORPG Star Trek Online
Anyone who grew up with Captain Picard and Mister Data in the 90s also knows Wesley Crusher, the smart-ass backup genius aboard the USS Enterprise. The character was then played by Wil Wheaton, the archenemy of Sheldon Cooper from the series “The Big Bang Theory” – Wesley Crusher is now in the MMORPG Star Trek Online at the start and he is planning evil.
Who is Wil Wheaton?
- William “Wil” Wheaton (50) is an actor and author who made it into the cult film “Stand By Me” as a teenager in 1986 and thus became famous as a child star.
- From 1987 to 1994, Wheaton played 85 episodes in “Star Trek – The Next Generation”: He played Wesley Crusher, an exceptional genius who acted as a “wish-fulfillment fantasy” for young viewers: Actually, he was still much too young to serve on the bridge of the Enterprise, but because he was so great he had exception rules
- Wheaton later used his notoriety in the “Star Trek nerd fandom” to play an evil version of himself on the series, “The Big Bang Theory,” who keeps dating Dr. Sheldon Cooper clashed. Cooper had declared Wheaton his nemesis because in 1995 he sat on the bus for ten hours to travel to a Star Trek convention, which Wheaton skipped.
Wheaton wants to take it to God:
What is he doing now in the MMORPG Star Trek Online? Actor Will Wheaton is now coming to the MMORPG Star Trek Online as a voice actor – but he’s not actually returning as Wesley Crusher, he’s playing the “evil version” of Crusher from the Mirror Universe: This is the Parallel World, in the Spock has a goatee and is evil.
I played a MMORPG solo for 1,000 hours – It was great
In this mirror world, Crusher has risen to become the Terran Emperor Crusher and is the “greatest threat that has ever threatened the galaxy,” as the developers know. Because Crusher has merged with a being known as “The Other”, the mirror universe version of the probe V’ger who has transformed into an intelligent ship. Stark Trek fans know their stuff.
In any case, players of the MMORPG must now prevent Crusher from implementing his plans and becoming a space god using 2 universes at once.
Sheldon Cooper always knew: Wheaton is the devil!
Few characters were hated as much as Wesley Crusher
What do people have against Wesley Crusher? The character of Wesley Crusher was arguably intended to tie teenage viewers to Star Trek: The Next Generation, but many fans flatly dismissed Crusher because the show seemed outright cheating to always portray Crusher as a hero:
- Crusher was allowed to fly the Enterprise
- often had brilliant ideas that nobody else came up with
- always got caught up in everything
It just didn’t seem organic that on a ship full of professionals, the “best in Starfleet”, an uneducated teenager would have the crucial ideas.
Many fans saw it like Captain Picard: Wesley, shut up.
Exciting actors that you know from the series keep coming back to Star Trek Online. This is a special feature of the MMORPG, which makes it a special experience for Star Trek fans in particular.
We were able to talk to Alexander Siddig, the Dr. Bashir from Star Trek Voyager:
