Nee-Elder Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 (edited) 1 hour ago, JakRoanin said: Okay, in the name of accuracy let me clarify. My post that seemed to make you mad is under Ammune's Post and not a response to any specific post. Then you, quoted the first sentence of that post Simply challenging your statements/opinions doesn't mean a person is "mad" lol. Your subsequent overreactions to such a basic challenge though, well, there's another word for that which i'm not allowed to use on these forums. Anyways, yes i quoted you here--> https://forums.swtor.com/topic/933680-date-night/?do=findComment&comment=9800378 but then you posted AGAIN obviously aimed directly at me--> https://forums.swtor.com/topic/933680-date-night/?do=findComment&comment=9800382 which is fine of course, except at how you misrepresented the truth and then are now double/triple'ing down on it for some odd reason. 1 hour ago, JakRoanin said: and you're still trying to start a fight. Again, forum debates are not "fights" . That's what RL is for. The only entity i'm gamer "mad" at or in a perceived "fight" with is EA for neglecting this game , as well as at/with Eric Musco & KeithKanneg for ignoring GSF. 1 hour ago, JakRoanin said: So, I am blocking you so you're sure I am not responding to you. i told you to stop being so melodramatic and you proceeded to be even more melodramatic with such a public display of "blockage" . Similar to how people love making grand drastic "i'm quitting the game" threads as if anyone cares other than "can i has yo stuff?" Pro-tip: Next time just block the person, silently. 1 hour ago, casirabit said: Well considering I did not romance all the ones that were on the stream, I doubt I get many tokens. ikr Instead they should've coded the "dates" cutscenes to allow for almost ANY companion ( with certain exceptions obviously ) and then just write various more specialized/personalized dialog trees to account for each Player's choices made per that character. As it stands now, Player-x is forced to "romance" Arcann/Koth/Theron ( for the tokens or achievements or whatever ) when all they really prefer is Lana. And vice-versa to a lesser degree cuz 3 to 1. 39 minutes ago, xxSHOONYxx said: Just quit the game man if the mmo part is important to you, First, i've been here loyally $ubscribed since 2011 beta and participated in original pre-release 2009 forums, as well as pre-launch alpha/beta testing ... So, unless/until a new SW MMO gets announced, i will never "quit" SWTOR. SWTOR, on the other hand, has quit on me & many players like me. Secondly, i still enjoy most of original SWTOR and have fun playing it. Plus i cherish my 2 guilds ( as GM ) & 100's of guildmates over the years. So i would never just abandon them because of my displeasure with BioSword ( mostly with EA ) . 39 minutes ago, xxSHOONYxx said: it doesn't matter how many posts are made, it's clear they won't do it.

JakRoanin Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 Sigh, you know what, I hope all the people who have to gripe about any companion content, or you know plot, can get the craziest NiM OP since the Gods and then they can stop insulting everyone else and let us be happy we now have date night. BTW I guarantee all the dates with every available LI won't cost as much as one NiM Zildrog. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExarSun Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 (edited) Why are the companions for this first Date Night - Koth, Theron and Arcann....and not Kira, Vette, Azshara and etc??? Cause "Yass queens?".... Because i seriosly doubt more people have romanced Koth (facepalm), Theron and Arcann, than Vette, Kira, Jaesa, Azshara and etc... So i call BS on that excuse....for me the reason is exactly this : " Yass queens, so brave, so independant".....

Oh and they changed the lights on the mailbox and GTN. to be fair romance with comps is more exciting than pretty much everything listed here except story and maybe some ops/fps. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JakRoanin Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 No they are not the same people! They have a different executive branch with Broadsword. Besides, why would I believe a person who left BioWare under Shady Circumstances at best, and didn't bother to seek to continue with SWTOR under BroadSword? If people can't get it through their heads that BioWare does not control this game anymore, I give up! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JakRoanin Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 There is a difference between the people who make the game, the Devs, and the company that they WORK FOR!

If something so simple can't get through your mind then there is only your hate blinding you. You mean the backing of a multi-billion dollar company vs. a very small maintenance mode company? Yes... I see the difference. It's not hate... it's frustration. Frustrated by every promise they have ever broken (10 year anniversary anyone?). This game uses one of the top 2-3 IPs IN THE WORLD... and is STRUGGLING. Things that need fixed.. never get fixed. Promises are broken. I am frustrated because my guild is down to 15 regular people. I am frustrated because we need more story content... and we get Date Night. Edited February 17 by LJ_Gibbs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JakRoanin Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 I give up! You don't want to talk, you want to complain, fine complain, but people who don't share your ire are not stupid or gullible. They've at least communicated more now than in a year under BioWare. BroadSword is not responsible is not responsible for the 10yr Debacle. You don't want to hear any reasonable discussion. PS. I agree this game needs help, I'm just realistic that it will take TIME. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ahwassa Posted February 18 Share Posted February 18 What I see from all the discourse is that people are passionate about this game - which is a good thing. The worst thing that can happen to anything is apathy. Sooo Date with Arcann night in a month (I havent romance anyone else bacause I see Lana and Theron more like my siblings/friends) and Hutta daily area in maybe 2 months - lets gooo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sumugi Posted February 18 Share Posted February 18 Most people have the very valid complaint about which companions are getting attention here....and it's because many of the active posters really don't care about the four mentioned previously. We (including me) want to see our original story companions get another chance to shine....and we get focus on companions that people either don't care for and/or have actively removed from their list (such as killing Koth). I'll be interested in this if/when there's ever focus back on the original companions....the others I just don't care about. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad to see someone finally listened! If they keep up with companion content, I'll keep up with the sub! So did I!! I felt obliged as I'd put a "lack of interaction/story for both companion friends and companion romances" in my reasons for unsubbing. I may also have mentioned Malavai Quinn, Aric Jorgan and Darth Rivix a few times too 😆 (I also asked for "more immersive story please"; however, the companion thing is a good start).

That was also the reasons I gave when I unsubbed a few years ago. Going through the content I've missed since, it's sad to see that didn't improve at all in that time and that about 3yrs of story drops to catch up on was maybe the equivalent of 4 chapters that they used to kick out once a month. It's sad to see how far the games dropped in terms of content/story releases. If they had of kept up with the frequency of story drops after KOTFE/KOTET the game wouldn't have bled so many players. Story players made up a big chunk of the player base back then, but they listened to the vocal few on the forums instead. Now I doubt they've the budget to do anything about it. I know that was EAs doing and not broadsword, but its sad to see how far the games population has fallen. Anyway, looking forward to the date nights, maybe enough will resub that they can get them out a bit faster 🤞. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
