BrimstoneAshe Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 Good article. Although I think the fact that EVERYTHING is humanoid is a bit of a disappointment for me. In Imperial quests on Nar Shadda you come across these aliens tied to the Revan lore that have the ugliest and freakiest head I've ever seen and it sits atop a humanoid body. It just looked so incredibly silly to me. And I LOVE playing small races. I really would have loved for my Jedi to have been a Yoda type race. Or a Jawa Bounty Hunter. This game wasn't a WoW killer for me. For me it was much like you mentioned, it was just burn out on WoW and fantasy in general. I do look forward to seeing where Bioware takes this game. It has a ton of potential. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Light_Farron Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 Great article! I would agree, but I haven't played SWtor yet Having Bootcamp problems. I never had high speed internet until recently so I never played MMOs, until this July when I started WoW. 5 months later and I'm bored to death. Can't wait to play this game!!!!

JayneKobb Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 Great article! Never played WoW, but all the references arent lost as they are general enough to apply to just about any MMO outside of SWG or EVE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timbermax Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 (edited) After 6 years of playing WoW, my time has come to an end. Only question is... what am I going to do with my 200k gold? -Not a damn thing! Edited December 23, 2011 by timbermax Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IBJammin Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 The only thing I feel I disagree with in the article is the whole "feeling inferior" thing. Jedis start as Padwans. Sith Inquistors are slaves. Jedis start with glowing nerf bats. Meanwhile, looking at Troopers and Smugglers.... Troopers start with the bad*** distinction of being a Sgt. No one really wants to be an officer. Sgt. is the way to go! And, they start with the weapons they will move forward with. Rifles, blasters, etc. I kinda feel like Jedi get the short end of the stick. They'll give noobie gun shooters REAL guns right out of the gate. But Jedi, who are supposed to be responsible, in control of their powers and able to make major life and death decisions, get a glowing plastic bat? What gives? But, a good article OP! Put a smile on my face! But c'mon... isn't it worth it for that moment of swelled up pride when you ignite that lightsaber for the very first time!! See... good storytelling!

anethers Posted December 23, 2011 Author Share Posted December 23, 2011 Yeah without giving anything away..the first time you get to use it in a fight feels awesome too. I like that you can get it equipped before the battle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anethers Posted December 26, 2011 Author Share Posted December 26, 2011 Yeah a guildie of mine read it and said "What? You don't like Pandas? You see to have a deep seated hatred of them. Is there something you're not telling me?" I feel I was fairly nice about it. I could have started with "What's black, white, and fail all over?"

abishe Posted January 9, 2012 Share Posted January 9, 2012 a common flaw amount the crowed. really, it's like you brake up on you'r girlfriend, or lossing a loved one. it's just a game, when the time comes, i jump to the next best thing. wich will be ether Guild Wars 2, or TERA, and from their to the next and so on. limiting you'r gameing is like cutting of you'r arm I jump so many MMO's that i general knows them all. and people be real, it's just a game, being blind to the flaws makes you look like a fool.
