 KJB of IGN gave the first half 3 out of ten , adding that the first episode suffered from a lack of pace , and described it as " awful " . The second episode was rated four out of ten and called " thin on plot " , but Coto was praised for killing off " long term pain " Silik , adding that the Suiliban were " still the worst aliens ever created for the Trek franchise " . KJB closed on a hope that " With some of the conceptual flotsam flushed away , Coto may actually have a chance to give Enterprise a decent final run before its inevitable and grisly end . "
