Unfortunately, That did not resolve the issue. Thanks for the try though. These games are too good to just forget about so I am trying everything

I know this is not really SWTOR related however this is the only place I could really ask for decent help

I am assuming that the class stories are finished forever now because if I was a guessing man, I would guess that it is too expensive and just takes too much time for them to continue therefore the developers are just making 1 story per faction for any further planets. Because of this it got me to thinking. Many of the stories did not feel finished even ones with very dramatic endings **The Jedi Knight story** and it seemed like they would continue and the choices we made in the past would carry over to the future of the game. But since this is looking like it wont happen, why not let us go back and replay the class missions with the level scale matched to the current level of our characters? Its not like this is such a big deal because all of our decisions we made really don't matter all that much and since class story wont be returning it shouldn't be a confusing feature for them to add. I've always wondered what a Dark Side Jedi Knight character would be like, I even went to the extent of making a new character just to see this. I have 5 level 55's and I want to play all of their class stories again without going through the entire leveling process again. This shouldn't be very confusing at al because there are games out there that after you finish the main story it gives you an option to run it again with all your skills and such. This is just an idea Bioware but this would be a great way to kill time, find an alternative way to level up, and just flat out enjoy the game more. What is your opinion on this idea? any ways to build on to it? do you think it should be implemented?

Before I go into this, I am playing SWTOR fine however I cannot play my KOTOR games on windows 8 I recently bought a new computer because my old one was horrible and could not play any modern games. I plugged the new computer in and unfortunately I noticed that it had Windows 8 installed to it. I heard that Windows 8 was bad especially for gamers but I thought I would be fine. The first game I downloaded was SWTOR and it worked fine; the second game I bought (off steam) was both KOTOR games and unfortunately it is looking like my $19.99 purchase was a waste. I can play KOTOR 2 however I do not have the ability to change any of the graphics without the game crashing and the graphics that are the standard preset are the lowest possible graphics and with a new computer it makes the game basically not playable. I have 2 questions. 1. Is there anyway to play KOTOR 1 or 2 on windows 8? P.S. I don't want to install anything that has the potential to harm the computer. And if not... 2. Is there a way to get rid of Windows 8? I really hope there is a way I can fix this because these 2 games are easily my favorite Star Wars games and some of the best games I have ever played.

I do like the small little lines companions say when you get into a new area however that was in the game before Rise of the Hutt Cartel came out so that does not do much for me

However those stories don't matter nor are they engaging. Knowing that my companions are doing this and that is great however it does not play a role at all to my story or make me interested in my companions

Yea I agree. They did say in the video I posted that each companion would have its own personal story which is completely false. I would say that only 1 companion per class really has a decent story at all. Reasons why I say this is because only 1 companion per class actually gives missions that you and your companion do while the rest of your companions just speak to you about their irrelevant past.

I think the value was great however we waited over a year to get new story content and most of us finished it at level 53-54. I am very worried at what the future holds for story and companions for this game because of the fact that this is what we get after more than a year of waiting in regards to story. I would think adding little things for the companions to say would not be an issue at all instead of something they would have to get rid of in general.

For $10-$20 Makeb was a great value for what it is however still for them to stay consistent with what they advertised on what the game would be then I think there should be more companion interaction.

Look I understand that class stories past level 50 would be hard to do and I can understand why they took them away however what I don't understand is why they took away companion characters dialogue. You can still have 1 story per faction and still have companion characters speak during the mission. Now they just feel like what the developers wanted to avoid, pets. I don't know what the future holds for companion characters but the path they are going with companion characters is certainly the wrong one. After I finished my final conversation with all of my companion characters at level 50 it just felt like they disappeared and it continued on into Makeb. Now the depth of companion characters from level 1-50 were not on level with past Bioware games and in my opinion I wished my companions would chime in a little bit more but it sure made the leveling more fun when they spoke during some of the missions. I really hope the future of this game actually integrates more with the companion characters because that would be a big shame if it did not.

There are just too many unanswered questions in most if not all story lines. I romanced Kira and there we no consequences whatsoever. Examples like these need to be answered and the only way they can be is through the class storyline...

Do you have a link to them saying this?? If this is true that would be a big disappointment

Are slaves better for you then?

I will be perfectly satisfied with this expansion if they consider it as a mini expansion. If they have a bigger one with more planets and content with class stories than I will be ok with Makeb. However I am concerned because it took more than a year to make this and they have not mentioned anything on future planets or content.

That may be correct however this is a different game. The big reason why this was supposed to be a unique MMO was because of story. They said a major part of the dynamic of this game was story and because of that people should be a able to feel free to criticize what was given to us. I wouldn't complain if they did not advertise story as such a big deal.

I loved what was given to me but my biggest gripe with this "expansion" is the complete design flaw put into it. I finished the story by doing every single possible solo quest at level 53. There is no excuse for that and that just shows lazy developing. This is not acceptable EA! You are taking our money for a rushed story. If you want your subs to go up then don't do a half assed job on everything! The worst part about it is this was the best possible planet to add in side quests and there hardly was any. I don't see why they can't just add in small side quests from a terminal or something that don't interfere with the main story.

I understand what you are saying, however they of still fit in something. But they did not even make an attempt. If you think about it, many great movies/games enter a significant part, slow down and build up again.

I am not currently done with the storyline on Makeb and the most concerning thing is how fast this story has gone. I really like it, however after more than a year, this is the most story they could come up with?? This is more of a patch than an expansion. Story will no longer be a major part of the game if this is the current pace they are going to release it at. Considering we still have big planets like Naboo, Kashyyyk, Mustafar, Geonosis, Dantoine, Maanan, and Onderon just to name a few. At the rate they are going, that is 7 years until we get to see some major planets. Hopefully they release more in the next expansion because I honestly think they took a lot of shortcuts in the story department for this expansion.

I can agree, the expansion was good and certainly not a disappointment however I hoped we would get more character development and more class quests. Unfortunately we got a very good planet story but no unique story. Hopefully we get more class story with a lot of detail and time put into it later on.

I've been leveling characters since launch and I got 6 50's. I hoped that we would get a whole lot more story content but we really did not get all that much. If this is the pace they make story content than I dont see why I should keep subscribing. 1 planet per expansion really is not much and considering there are a lot more planets (especially major ones from the movies) that will take a long time to get to, its just adds to the point that I should not be subscribed until another expansion comes out.

Add in the fact that the story took little time to complete made it a little more disappointing... If more than a year gives us this much story content than we surely wont get to many of the planets I hoped we would get to.

Look I love the new Makeb story, I think they spent a lot of time putting in more detail into it compared to the other planets however just like every other planet, the story will get old and repetitive after the first character. I have not said one word to any of my companions and they are starting to feel more like pets than companions which is something the devs said would never happen. I dont know what the future holds for class story but this is not what I or many other people wanted. We want to feel like an individual with companions that actually have a little bit of life to them. Hopefully they are making more class storyline things for the future but I really hope this is not the last of the class storylines because for me, it felt like it just got started. Are you happy with what you got from Makeb? Would you like more unique storylines? Feel free to discuss because I would like to see what the rest of the community feels about this.

Understandable, however it worries me that this expansion will have the same lazy quests design as the first 50 level had. Hopefully they took more time and detail in future quests

Care to share why you are pissed instead of crying in the forums?

Dont get me wrong folks, never in any mmo have I leveled up more than this one but the reason this topic has come up is because we were promised choices, a different experience every time we played, interactive quests and to be quite honest we did not get that in any of the non class quests and even hardly in the class quests itself.
