Star Wars: The Old Republic, Cinematic Trailer

Odd thing is I've played here for four years knowing no one. I jump to a Star Wars game and likely half my friends would be playing. I haven't been in any solid SG since I5.

If the game works out, I'm going to try to get in on it early.

I'm on the TOR forums as BlackMarrow, and I'll be getting my name and character info quared away once I find my old KOTOR disk and dig up the name I have long since forgotten. :P

I do hope its very successful. I don't think it will be a death blow to CoH or anything of that nature but the appeal of Star Wars would definetely interest me.

An interest that survived the great collapse known as the NGE. I firmly believe that the debacle SOE created with that should be studied in any college class about working in the computer gaming field. Alienated player base, bugs galore and worse. It was the Perfect Storm of failure.

Most of my Star Wars interest comes from watching the original trilogy as a kid, and playing the KotoR games later on. Chances are I'll be playing the generic warrior, as that seems to be my place in every rpg I've tried.

Bah, now I'm getting excited about the game. To the forums!

I have to be skeptical though, I highly doubt this game will compete against WoW to the degree Olivia talks about during the E3 review. But this game has a lot going for it, it's a huge franchise and fan favorite and you have Bioware leading it. However there too I'm skeptical, this is Bioware's first MMO and there's only so many ways to get it right at some of their statements I was actually surprised in thinking of some of them as little kids claiming they can do something easily having not tried it before. So while I do hope the game will be good, I'm also preparing for the worst.

As I've said since Tabula Rasa, "By expecting the worst and being revealed the best, there's nothing but good to say about it. But by expecting the worst and getting the worst... well you weren't expecting much anyways." in helps in keeping sane people sane when involving a particular favorite genre.

I signed up on the forums last night. Read a few healer threads, had an aneurysm, and went to bed. I'm Starflier over there too.

After watching TR and AoC bomb, I've learned to temper my excitement for games so I'm not too worried about being hugely disappointed, although I do hope to be delightfully surprised.

I think you may have completely missed the 'don't get too excited' thing. Nice work though.

Psssh I'm just RPing a bit. I know full well the game can bomb I mean all that trailer showed us was pretty art renditions. I'm just trying to be busy so I don't grow board. Also to keep me away from general discussions since I get into arguments so much >.>;

Well, so far I'm mostly sticking with the Trooper forums. I'm always open for joining up with some CoH/CoV veterans when the game finally arrives. Would be nice to know someone, rather than starting fresh in every game I play.

Edit: oh, and go vote in the sci-fi space babe draft in the Comic culture section of the boards.

It's... not... released... yet.

So there's no info. I think at most it's in Closed beta.

I'm there as txHereticxt drop me a line. The neat thing they have is you can actually message folk's profile. It's quite interesting. It's like a minispace


And I can't find the topic unless if you mean on these boards. o.O

Tell us how you really feel, Kant.


SG Mate: Cien, what the hell is this Rookery thing?
RadDidIt: (interjecting) Dude. It's the Rookery.
SG Mate: Yeah, but what IS it?
RadDidIt: Silliness Incarnate.

Well, it's Bioware. They have a good track record with single-player games. They say that they're writing the missions in SW:TOR with the same intensity and attention to detail as their single-player fare. So if they screw up the mechanics, at least it will have a good story.


Goodbye, I guess.
