Deep Space Nine actor Aron Eisenberg handed away this weekend. He performed Nog, the put upon nephew of Quark the bartender and the primary Ferengi to hitch Star Fleet. In Star Trek Online, he’s made captain.
Nog’s a healthful character in a deeply healthful present, which is partly why I discovered the in-game vigil gamers held for Eisenberg so touching.
The ceremony happened in Quark’s bar, with gamers holding their torches aloft as a gesture of respect. I see the language of in-game emotes as a legitimate option to commemorate the lifetime of an precise particular person. You would possibly get folks /dancing or making glib jokes, however that’s all blended in with heartfelt tribute. I wish to suppose /dancing and glib jokes are meant as heartfelt tribute, for some.

As Reddit person “Natalia-A-Romanoff” points out, comparable in-game tributes have been paid to Leonard Nimoy and Carrie Fisher.
Cheers for recognizing this, PC Gamer.
