Thread: Star Wars - The Old Republic

    Star Wars - The Old Republic

    Anyone been playing this game at all?

    Just got it today and have been absolutely amazed by it.
    Such a nice environment, really good visuals and the storyline is great.





    (Many other short trailers but I liked this one)
    Where's the beef?

    Haven't played it as I'm not fond of the whole pay a increased amount of cash for the game compared to others and then pay to play the game you already bought each month, the trailers are great but it doesn't reflect the actual gameplay.

    Some here:

    My Releases:
    ArmA 2 CO: Jackal Two Nine || US Army '09 Replacements || Marsoc Marines Replacement Coming Soon...
    Skyrim: Jormungandr || Poison Blade (HD) || Poison Blade (Lighter Blade - HD)

    Most annoying voice I've ever heard.

    Have played some, enjoyed it.

    paulsoaresjr has some good playthroughs, but I wanted to show some jedi gameplay, since that's why most are playing it right?

    Edit:
    More annoying then this?

    Deleted it today and cancelled sub.

    @OP: My initial reaction was the same as yours but the love affair was over pretty quickly.

    I've got it and I've really enjoyed playing - particularly exploring the planets with other players - there's a genuine sense of adventure in it. I've certainly found the experience more enjoyable than the time I tried WoW.

    However, I think the game has some levelling/pacing issues when it comes to maintaining the character story if you try to do the world-arcs, heroic group quests and flashpoints on the side. It's difficult to stop doing a quest line once you've started it, and you have to do at least some additional questing to get decent gear; so you get lapses in the overall story experience compared to things like KOTOR when you wind up being too busy with other things - by the conclusion point of which, you really should have started on another planet a couple of levels ago.

    As such, I think I'll take a break from subscription after the free-play period is up, before deciding about starting with some of the other classes of characters - particularly now I'm back at work after the Christmas/New Year period.

    I'm currently on Alderaan with my Sith Inquisitor - the place is bloody huge. I'm on the Sith'ari EU server if anybody happens to be there.

    I figure that while the prices are expensive, it is worth it.

    Most games these days cost about $80 on release and you get maybe, a month or two maximum gameplay out of them. (Yes, I know there are exceptions but I am generalising)

    And SWTOR comes with a month free gameplay, so it isn't entirely that bad.

    It makes up for the high prices with the awesome gameplay style.

    Unlike WoW, there is the element of enjoyable replayability for other classes apart from different damage dealing. The storylines are actually quite epic.

    Got a lvl 32 Vanguard on Ula Vii.
    The game, Mrs. Hudson, is ON!
