Torian came over as a a boy to me, but he was sure in his identity as a Mandalorian and seemed unphased by the chaos, so I don't think he's the latter one you are describing. He was the most boring romance I played so far. You could mean Mako, but I suspect you're talking about Ashara Zavros, and the same-gender character who came across as an equal was Andronikos Revel.

I've already transferred 2 characters but all of my other alts were for levelling as a duo with my husband. His sub has lapsed and mine expires in 2 days. If we re-sub, chances are we'll do it at the same time after a couple more significant updates. I don't want to move all my alts now, only to find Red Eclipse isn't available anymore for him or he has to do a paid transfer. So I'm tempted to just leave them in the hope that if there's a forced move it all happens at the same time.

I only transferred 2 so far. I lost one name I wasn't attached to and kept one name which I wanted to keep. So I'm okay with that.

/signed. Keep it or make a toggle.

I've been playing a female Imperial Agent lately and Vector prefers diplomatic decisions and ones which aren't anti alien species. I found it easy to make LS decisions with him. With the female romanceable companions, it seems Kaliyo is more dark and Raina Temple is more light on the whole.

I agree with the OP about Mia Hawkins. You wait far too long for an alternative companion with the IA. Oh yes, same here.

Yup, he's just a boy with nothing interesting to say. The romance is quite oddly paced too as he seems to show little sign of interest before the sudden love confession.

Yes, I've never quite understood why hardly anyone uses it. About group invite whispers - no, I don't find it rude at all. What I find rude is when i get the group invite popup without a whisper first, so I don't know what they're inviting me to. When that happened I wasn't even flagged as LFG. Those I will automatically decline, just as I used to with silent guild invites. It doesn't seem to happen as often here as with some other games though.

Agreed on divorces - let's put that in the hands of the player if at all. My highest level characters are Smuggler and BH, both female so I've been romancing Corso and Torian. I'm enjoying the Corso romance well enough. It's not concluded yet since affection is somewhere in the 8000s and I'm waiting to level up to finish one of his quests. Torian's around 9500 affection and on the whole I've found his romance oddly paced and rather dull. You'd barely notice he was interested at all, then suddenly a love confession straight out of the blue. My last two scenes involving him were cute, admittedly and I liked the short email I got from him so far. It underlined the fact that he's a man of few words and half of them are Mando'a anyway, so that was fitting. It's just a shame it all felt so meh earlier on. I guess I like the more talkative characters and Mandalorian culture leaves me indifferent, so Torian's not my type. I don't find Akavi interesting either on the other side. If I was playing a male smuggler I'd definitely go for Risha. I like her dry and snarky personality, even though I take the more Corso-like 'oh you poor thing, let's save your friends' responses when questing and she doesn't do sympathy.

I preordered 6th December. I'd love to get in by the weekend but I don't know if that's realistic. Hoping for more than the minimum 1 day anyway. My game arrived today and is taunting me from the shelf...

I've had a phone engineer around sorting out a problem with the line (now fixed) and need to edit my xmas online supermarket shopping cart now the broadband's back. After that, a cup of tea and I'll play Rift.

SE London here.

5* to the OP for making a good point.
