The ability to watch people have some of the most gooberish conversations ever simply couldn't balance having to walk/run across an entire ****ing planet to accomplish my first task. :doh!:

I'm not sure that I'll get this, even though I loved the first two KotORs. I don't have the time management discipline when it comes to games to play a MMO without ruining the rest of my life. It really bums me out though because I think BioWare will do it right.

Piss on the real world! It's horrible! Get your ass online! :D

The first timeline video is up, pretty cool: http://cdn-www.swtor.com/info/timeline/timeline1

Who does that voice belong to? Familiar, but can't place it....

Lance Henriksen.

He's been in a shitload of genre stuff. Close Encounters, Terminator, Aliens, Millennium (he was Frank Black, if you ever watched that). He's one of the voices in Mass Effect, as well, Admiral Hackett, 5th fleet commander.

So is this going to be a franchise name version of EVE online? Or better put, a mesh of EVE and WoW? I do not know much about this game, but do you create your own avatar (an actual being in this case--not a ship) and go from place to place (world to world--galaxy to galaxy) on quests or for whatever, leveling up and by way of your actions (like in KOTOR) you are either light or dark side?

If so, this seems it could be a pretty sweet game!

They haven't released much information on it yet, but I'm assuming you do come up with your own avatar, pick a class and go. There's been talk of having companions, as in KotOR, but I don't know if that's actually the case or not. You'll play as either Jedi or Sith (Bounty Hunters fall on the side of the Sith faction). Last I heard there would be 16 planets, 8 for each faction.

I would expect the game to be similar to WoW or LotRO or any of the other MMOs on the market, but they're putting a lot more emphasis on story than in any other prior game in the genre. Both overall story, and personal story for individual characters. There's actually a comment by Bioware about 6 months ago where they said they'd already scripted more story for The New Republic than in all of their previous games combined. Which includes some pretty ****ing long story-driven games, from BG1 and 2 to NWN to KotOR to Jade Empire to Mass Effect.

The second class has been revealed: Trooper

Yummy.

Hopefully it is more of a rts/fpsmmo.. Because I want to fight as a jedi and fly in space battles..

Can be great if done well..

Sucks that this will be an MMO. Greedy bastards. 4321

Whoooooooa, this name made my ears perk up.

I have no idea why; it's not like I physically heard it.

that clip is better than the last 3 star wars movies combined x 53....

[quote=the Talking Can;5809850]na, the last 30 minutes or so of episode 3 saved the prequels IMO. but that did look really effin cool.
