I dont think that EA or Bioware will have a homophobia option in the settings when SGR comes out. As previously stated, just dont flirt with the male or female and you will be able to live your life happily.
Conversations become available after you get a certain amount of affection/make progress in your story, they don't just randomly decide to talk to you.
So in short, you can't get around it, do quests and give Kira some gifts to make her talk!
I always forget there's a GTN in the VIP section!
Anyway, I paid like $5 extra for the Deluxe edition, so that in itself was worth it for the free speeder on each character etc.
They'd probably need to move the datacrons to make it harder for us, but yes being able to jump higher would be cool.
The Knight/Warrior classes have a leap ability to get to opponents faster, but that's probably all we'll get.
If they added flying mounts they'd probably have to start looking around the planet maps a bit to make sure you can't get out of it somehow.
I agree on organic mounts though, would love to mosey on through Tatooine on a Dewback.
But Star Wars ISN'T modern! As many have said before it's based in the past.
While I agree that some of the stuff does look very retro, it's Star Wars buddy, part of the charm.
It would make the game so lop sided it wouldn't be worth playing at all. If you could only kill Jedi/Sith as a "skilled" player, then nobody would be anything but a Sith or Jedi.
Personally I love being a non force sensitive and being able to take out some lightsaber weilders! Teaches them for believing that blasters aren't sophisticated.
