Just depends on your budget. I would personally always choose modular over semi-modular simply because less wires/parts in any form are typically less of a headache to install as long as you're not sacrificing any performance.

Yeah, not at all a fan of this. Pretty cool expansion but stuff like this just makes me

I resubbed about a month ago. A lot of it is because WoW has just been stagnant for so long, and while I think WoD will do well for the first couple of months, garrisons were just as heavily rail guided as the strongholds appear to be. To the victors go the spoils, though SWtoR has a huge advantage of doing housing first.

Now we know why we have to vaccinate the poor people on Nar Shaddaa, you jerk.

I recently came back as well before the F2P model was in place and, from my limited knowledge of the Cartel Market et al, your assumptions seem to be correct. I had some Cartel Coins saved up somehow (security key from previous sub?) and bought a couple of the Club Vertica packs and got nothing. Well, not nothing, but some genuinely useless items. I'm actually surprised people throw money at RNG like that.

Not every movie can or should be James Bond. A lot of the incorporation with CGI has allowed a sort of free form directive. I do agree with you, though. A lot of the old Star Wars movies had a lot more melancholy fight scenes than the newer ones, and I think the next installments will probably capitalize on what's been working out for Disney - it's just a staple with Disney to add stuff like that. Sort of a trademark, as if they 're saying, "Hey, we own this now too. See?" I don't think Disney will do a bad job with it - I'm actually expecting the opposite. But I'm also prepared for the nonsense that will probably be included with the purchase of Lucasarts into a predominantly family oriented demographic.

$1500! The real question is, did you get anything good? Or did you get ALL of the good?

I'm looking forward to having my own little slice of real estate in the Star Wars universe. Interactive or not, it still has its own merits.

Good to know, thanks!

What happens if you have an active legacy on one server with the same name you want to transfer to on another server? Will the lower level legacy be deleted and become the higher level?

I actually went the opposite route you did and resubbed to Star Wars after playing WoW for awhile. Threads like these don't pop up enough after initial impressions, so I think it's a good thing. As far as server population goes... Eh, this is kind of a one way street. Even after server merges in WoW, those physical servers still exist as individual entities, and WoW has a TON of servers to look after in comparison to what Star Wars currently offers. Not trying to put you down on that point, but yeah, if you're not playing on one of the six or seven big kid servers in WoW then you'll likely not see too many people floating around. Not to mention WoW completely dies after midnight until about 8am PST, so time is also a major factor. Leveling in Mists of Pandaria is a freaking mission. Star Wars chains quests quite a bit so it always seems a little bit more dynamic in comparison, which is a good thing. It became pretty clear relatively early on in Mists to understand that the journey from 85-90 was just an afterthought to the raiding pandemic at 90. In game stores are a complete mess no matter where you go in the MMO universe these days. Developers see a chance to commit additional (or in most cases pull ) resources for monetary endeavors like mounts and weird looking hats while still allowing a subscription based model. While that may fly in countries with obscene amounts of vapeware, NA is getting a whole lot less tolerant of them, which is totally understandable, IMO. Same could be said for games with DLC already integrated into full priced, half finished games, but I digress.... All in all, you're pretty much on point. When reality sets in and the fog begins to clear then things will hopefully make a little more sense.

Jedi Academy was awesome. Coolest lightsaber battles this side of, well, ever. Made the guns kind of pointless, though I do appreciate the effort.

Have to agree, unfortunately. Everything feels like a still life. We see it, it's pretty in it's own right, but there's some diminishing factor to it also. How hard would it be to put in some clouds that move across the rendered sky, include some little critters that roam around, or make it feel as though the surrounding area is way more vast than where you're actually able to go? Whoever designed Balmorra did a great job in some respects. Everything else is pretty lackluster. Even space doesn't feel like space.

Wow, Lacey Chabert does Mako's voice? That's pretty hot, not gonna lie.

Unfortunately I still notice a delay as well. It's gotten better since the last patch, but it's still pretty bothersome to use an ability and it simply take an extra few (very noticeable) fractions of a second to execute, beyond the average user to network latency.

Got some weird DnB going on in the background fo sho.

I don't understand your methodology, Xugos. You've made it vehemently clear on both these forums and the WoW forums that the game is a cesspool of Star Wars fanboyism, what are you out to prove? That angry customers are more vocal than customers who enjoy themselves?

Haha, awesome. Bashing other games using the same handle between the two is no way to get your VIP status, Xugo!

I'm confused, aren't your titles designated on what you choose individually, regardless of what happens?

Voss was definitely the most difficult planet I did (level 47 right meow) throughout the game. A lot of my issue was that companions seem to be bugging out quite a bit, at least my Mako did, on several important fights on Voss.

Was thinking Mr. McFeely went interstellar.

It is pretty annoying, yeah. Especially at higher levels planets such as Hoth and Voss where you'll rarely ever run into mobs that don't have a silver attached to the proxy aggro of a weaker enemy.

Something similar to the guild perks they put in WoW and Rift would be neat. Would be nice to have things like that without having to rely on the rest of your guild for it.

Cool guy post. Working on my SI now, pretty pumped to keep watching the story unfold now.

Solid review from IGN. Glad they gave the sound portion due credit. Gamespot has always been really inconsistent with it's rankings, however, so I don't give them much attention, though an 8 is really nice, in an arbitrary kind of way.
