In a discussion with Inverse, art director Thomas Marrone and editor Heather Antos emphasized that ships in Star Trek not only serve as mere vessels but as characters with distinct personalities. This concept is particularly significant in the MMORPG Star Trek Online, which features over 600 ships, many inspired by existing franchise media, while also introducing oigianl designs that have become part of Trek canon. The USS Theseus serves as an example, paralleling the Ship of Theseus paradox in exploring identity through transformation.
"Thereâs definitely a personality to every single ship. Every ship has a personality that goes along with it and fits the whole vibe."
"Since 2010, Star Trek Online has been bringing in new starships, either from the existing films and TV shows, or creating brand-new ships unique to the game."
