We need NEW CLASSES, its been for ever now with the same old 8 class story line
And think a Droid as a PC class would be fun, instead of playing the Main character
you play is a support role assigned to a crew that builds over time, and given missions to carry out more or less
and one of the classes could even use vibro swords and electro staffs maybe a mix of range VS melee
of course would have to be a biped for that, but as ranged could be an astromech droid or protocol droid assassin
anyhow a lot can be done with them, I mean after all wasn't it R2-D2 that saved the universe!!
