star trek next generation 100%. I can't think of anything that would be better than that.

Conundrum: STNG overlaps in time with DS9 (even if they didn't, they're both part of the same "universe" as posed by the question), so by selecting the universe of STNG, does that mean having to live through the Dominion war? Not sure that makes it a deal breaker either way but definitely takes some of the utopian edge off.

My thought process as well.

TNG? Hell no, it was the end of a Golden Era. SNW, all the way. By the time you get old enough that missions of science and explorations are thrown to the side in exchange for war, you're 100 and living in some retirement holodeck.

I guess real nice would be to have the star trek online universe where I like goto starfleet and become a captain like out of the academy and am allowed to do whatever I want with my vast fleet of ships n junk. I took STNG because that was the holodeck and replicators and until the borg invasion it was relatively peaceful and even that did not last long.
