Unnamed Star Trek Sequel Series starring Patrick Stewart

Could work, it'd be hella sweet if it was good. But, given the track record thus far, who can say for sure? Personally (and at the risk of kicking a dead horse), I believe it'll be a higher budget ST version of stargate origins.
Stewarts involved though, so I'm gonna entertain some hope for the future.

The creative team are the people that are working on star trek discovery....let's be honest, they might just fuck it up.
The `Vulcan blows up crapverse` is an alternate reality-it has no direct link to the prime verse so is very unlikely to make an appearance. The only parts of that movie that will have a part to play in the new show is the destruction of Romulus, which did occur within the prime verse.

Well, and Spock disappearing around the time of said destruction along with a Romulan mining rig, but he was going to be dead of old age anyway.

Which set up the absolutely awesome Romulan Republic, who are basically badasses in biker jackets and stolen warbirds spreading FREEDOM! everywhere led by Spock's former romulan protege.

Isn't that STO canon, though? And when it comes to Star Trek canon, what CBS says, goes. Writers, technical manuals, and tie-in comics don't matter. Only what's on screen.

Basically, it's increasingly looking like CBS is going with STO being canon-ish in the broad strokes now. They requested some oversight of the upcoming STD content, as they intend for it to be canon to the show and want to avoid causing problems with continuity. They've released an official Ent-F model, and apparently CBS is working closely in a two-way relationship with the STO devs, all of which point to... basically the overall broad strokes of STO being considered the road map to come. Which I'm totally okay with. This remains to be confirmed, of course, based upon waiting for the new series to see what lines up.
Never really got very far in STO due to keep hitting a glitch that pretty much trapped me in a fight I can't win, but didn't the Enterprise E disappear to where no one knows in STO? This could be part of that

Since Kurtzman's involved, at least at the topmost level (I would expect there to be a full-time executive producer dedicated to this, and probably Stewart to be one as well), I imagine they'll include at least the general idea of Romulus being destroyed, but they'll probably discard most of the Countdown comics. Even the other Kelvin movies have done that for the comics. I wouldn't expect them to keep too close to STO either, particularly the crazier bits with the infiltrators and the Iconians. However, I think the broad strokes of the Romulan parts of the story with rival successor states, as well as a refugee crisis, would work very well for a Picard-centric story and fit the kind of story that could draw Stewart back in.

be careful my friend, the hopeful are the ones who are hurt the most by the fall.

We know what happened to the -E now. It went down saving a starbase from the Undine/8472, but most of the crew got off, in 2407.

If this proves to be at all true, then I am a very happy Trekkie. Even if they just use the history of the Galaxy since Nemesis, they have a good place for new series to go forward from.
It would of course be impossible to make every single player character Captain's adventures canon. But hey, the Galaxy is a big place. They'd only need to not do anything that directly contradicts those events, and they can easily keep the game fans happy.
And hell, if a new post Nemesis series was good, but completely contradicted everything in STO, I could live with that.

Only if they decide to use STO, which isnt canon.
The one bit of non canon stuff they COULD use, with extensive adaptation, could be the broad strokes of the Destiny storyline in the books-i dont mean having half a billion borg ships wiping out thousands of worlds and trillions of individuals, but in an effort to make the Borg a credible adversary again, how about take the concept set out in Destiny-that of the Borg inspired to view the Alpha Quadrant as a threat not worth assimilating but rather to be destroyed after Voyager destroys their transwarp network, and take it from there. Perhaps mix that in with the post Romulan Chaos, and you have fertile ground for storylines.

No.
Please God no.
We've already had enough of wars and shit. Disco already threw in a pointless war for teh lolz.
And also; the Borg have been way too fucking overexposed since Voyager. Just leave them be. Let them lurk.
(I'll also remind you that storyline also has the Borg eat Pluto because... reasons. Also the Borg are called Borg because the first drone is some MACO whose last thought was "I don't want to be a Cy-" NEVER use anything from the shitty grimderp EU. It should never be acknowledged. Don't make eye contact with it. Don't mine it for ideas. It makes SW Legends canon look well thought out. It's the very worst kind of fanfic cringy)

I enjoy the books, but i dont kid myself into thinking they are proper trek by any stretch of the imagination.
I just think there are plenty of general ideas that could be used-for example, in canon, we could have something akin to the civil war and division of the empire that occurs in the books-in the books, the impetus is the aftermath of Shinzon, but we could very easily see something similar after the destruction of Romulus-the empire is vast, Romulus is but one planet

Blowing up Romulus and then Vulcan is the most pointless bullshit. JJ's nuTrek fucked up their fresh timeline so bad it fucked up the original one too.
