Kabires Posted June 27, 2023 Share Posted June 27, 2023 Today I read the announcement that SWTOR is leaving the house of a well-renamed studio that gave us so much (Dragon Age series, Mass Effect series, SWTOR) and is moving into the backyard of a studio that in its portfolio has two games worthy of our browsers. I have the account from 2013, and I played this game most of the time with some periods of break for approx two years. It was the game that I loved and got me into MMORPG as WOW hasn't managed. I remember spending my last money on items or the nights I would lose trying to merge into the worlds that Star Wars would provide. There were times when I saw that the game wasn't doing very well, in terms of players, yet it managed to emerge like Phoenix, With stories deemed the best sellers and cinematic trailers, worthy of triple-A games. With the last update, when I saw how they crafted the cinematic (cutscenes in-game, and with no voice-over), going with the grinding at levels never seen before in this game, then I realized that this was regression and my fears told me that the game is going to die, slowly. Yet I said, no... the Phoenix will rise again. But now... something is different. It feels as if our Phoenix is tired and it will not spread its wings again... Probably people are going to say that this is not the end... but I will say otherwise. This game will be online for a bit more, then no more content and there will be only maintenance until it dies. Can be a few years or more, but there will be nothing new. So, even if I started with the bad part, I want to continue with something else. A thank you to all the people that made this possible! Thank you for your hard work, for your commitment and for making a 25-year-old me, get hyped for the first time with a MMORPG. Sadly, the Sith have won. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just don't come back lmao If you are referring to the topic, which is a different thing than a comment... then I like how you are having an idea about the future of SWTOR. If you think that the latest updates were a sign of progress, then we have a different view of quality. Over that, passing the game to a studio that has the graphics of a 2002 game, is a good sign and yes, successful games are going on this path usually. Yes, like it happened with World Of Warcraft, Final Fantasy and so on when they pass the game from the main developer to a god-forgotten studio (I am ironic). If you are so sure about the future of SWTOR, just make an annual sub. Trust your gut. You seem intelligent...

This is the pattern of their mother company. But again, compared to broadsword... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
