[SWTOR Content & Story Predictions]

So, getting multiple characters through 'Onslaught' has been a pain and now 'The Legacy of the Sith' is meant to continue the story. However the first thing on my mind about what is to come is

Vaylin's return.

 

 

 

Having played through Onslaught and talked to Vaylin enough times I noticed the little moment she gets in the cutscene when facing Tenebre, Vitiate and Valkorian. We see Vaylin take a moment to stare at Syl's dead spirit and after the battle is done and its over we see and learn that Syl is somehow alive despite having died. If I haven't already pointed out the obvious Vaylin has spirit hopped from the prison Valkorian made our character into and jumped into a fresh new "Empty" body to utilize. This Opportunity to encounter Vaylin again will either be a main or side section of the Legacy of the Sith later down the road and I hope that if given the opportunity to either recruit/romance Vaylin or properly destroy her depending on the individual story people look to create for their characters, hell another option could be to imprison her all over again. To sum it up "Vaylin Will Return!"

 

 

Concerning the Story overall what with the whole saboteur arks for selected characters, I'm probably over-analyzing it but I can't help but think that either 2-5 years from now Bio-ware will continue to build the story to a nexus point to where we can actually take our faction locked characters and literally switch to the other faction(Dark Jedi becoming a Sith, Imperial agent converting to SIS agent). I can't help but feel that this is Ultimately where the SWTOR Story is headed and I'm not feeling hopeful, the story is progressing but I get the feeling that at some stage those that are playing the saboteur will eventually get found out.

When the game first released it was about the story overall, the ability to interact with story characters, companions and flashpoints alike, then it was a combination of story and interaction but these days the only story that gets any attention is the Main Story and the flashpoints are just pure combat without interactions, if this keeps up the whole idea and purpose of Dark side or Light side will become redundant despite being a Core Function and focus in the game. In my opinion there needs to be more content that focuses on Companion side stories as well as proper companion to companion interactions(Vette+Risha, Ashara+Jaesa, Khem Val vs Ak'ghal Usar) as well as additional recruitment missions for the other inaccessible companions.

[Why do i have to PvP? {Spoiler}]

I've played through the KOTFE story and reached the checkpoint, now i'm building up my alliance but In order to obtain

M1-4X

I have to play 20 matches in unranked PvP arena.

 

My problem is i'm not much of a PvP person and only use a couple of 'specific' toons for PvP. The reason i love and play SWTOR and now KOTFE is for the PVE and RP and i REALLY don't want to be forced into playing arena and be stuck because of it.
