[Wouldn't it be cool..]

Meh. I'm not one of those people who whines about the prophecy or the prequels in general, but I don't see the need for this.

 

SWTOR is an entirely different timeline and it's meant to look at the Star Wars universe from a new perspective. There are little nods to the movies, but I'd rather not mesh the two eras together too much.

 

I'm one of them and I really don't want anything to remind me of the prequels in this game, no thanks

[Getting A Name You Like]

I have never had a name rejected because I use a "last name" as part of the character name. It also helps me keep the character names straight. The "first name" portion is usually named after my grand kids or even my cats (Cathars, of course.) So I've got Sydneyschuyler, Rosieschuyler, Benschuyler, Dylanschuyler, Jacksonschuyler, Michaelschuyler, Joshuaschuyler, and Jerichoschuyler for the 8 different classes. I have yet to do Carolschuyler, my spouse, but I did threaten to dress that one up in one of those skimpy dancer outfits, to which she replied, "Oh, please do! You will, won't you?" I know there are some who don;t like those outfits, but SHE does, and that's all I care about. :-)

 

That's quite a smart way to have any common name you want

[Lifespan of this game ? is it too late to start ?]

Okay so, I've heard a lot of people telling me SWTOR is dead or declining, that a lot of people quit. I start playing it 9 days ago, just testing the different storylines and I intend to spend a lot of time and a bit of money on it, subscribe and maybe cash shopping, but I don't want to waste nor my time or my money if the game is shut down or dead within 1 or 2 years, when I start a MMORPG, it's on the very long term. So I wonder if SWTOR is in his late stage of life or if it still got many years ahead of him ? it's been out for 3 years now I think ? what were EA initial intentions for SWTOR lifespan ? 5 years ? 10 ?

thanks !

[Races - can we have more player access?]

Togruta are the next playable race.

 

Do we know when exactly ? is there a date ?
