    No offense to Americans but the way you pronounce some words bugs the hell out of me.


    e.g. Mul-tye-player


    It's Mul-tee-player.


    And lets not forget the worst offender: Basil.

    BAH-ZIL not BAY-ZUL >_>


    Again don't mind me, I'm just ranting.

    Not a fan of the autplaying video everytime you click on the post. Otherwise it doesn't seem as interesting as King of Kong, which is the best gaming documentary out there.


    Also, someone tell G4 to bring back Icons. That show was great even if only 5 people watched it.

    360 please


    Final fantasy 11 for the 360 can also be played if you only have a silver account,so perhaps if this game would take up all your online game time,a similar deal can be made

    You aren't going to get away from animation and numerical damage in games featuring combat outside of maybe Bushido Blade.

    @excel_excel:


    I doubt EA will have any effect on this game outside of marketing, distribution, and technical help.


    This was in production much longer than when EA bought BioWare (and was one of the key incentives as to buying them according to EA).


    And if Lucas Arts allows BioWare their freedom, like they did with KOTOR ... it should be pretty good.

    "It's a chance for us to create the ultimate Star Wars game.."


    Sorry pal, Star Wars Galaxies accomplished that years ago, before Sony Online Entertainment ruined it.


    Either way, I would of preferred a single player KOTOR III with possible some MMO multiplayer as a second thought, or not at all.

    Another MMO with fake combat. Great :/


    Is it too much to ask for a game where fighting actually involves even the remotest sense of positioning? where using the environment is a tactic rather than an exploit? I'm guessing it is :p

    Agreed on keeping my optimism for this MMO in check. However, if 15 bucks for a month of gameplay is "raping" your wallet then your wallet needs to be less of a prude.

    @MorganAtreus:

    Considering games with more enjoyable content cost just $60 with no hidden fees, charging $50 as an intro fee, then 15/month just to play it to the same degree a single-player RPG would be played is rape.

    I'm about as interested in this as I was in DrageAge, or whatever the hell the last Bioware game to come out was. If it's not an epic tale of war and heroism, I don't really care. As much as I know that Bioware can make almost anything good, I don't see a good MMO coming from them.

    I will remain stubbornly disinterested until The Old Republic proves itself better than all of those other MMOs that have wooed me in the past with sweet talk and fancy trailers.


    Quoted for mother fucking truth.


    And even if it proves itself better, I'll still be disinterested until a single-player variant with absolutely zero wallet rape comes out.

    As long as it doesnt cost $15 a month.


    or $10 a month.


    the most i'd be willing to pay is $5.


    free would be ideal though. let them charge for clothes or char customization; i don't care about any of that anyway.

    @CrypticMetaphor: WAAAaaa! I'm gonna cry about it like a whiny bitch! lol, jk man, jk. seriously, man up. It's probably gonna be a ton of fun. it seems very soloable in terms of gameplay, what with companions acting as a team with you when real people are unable to join you, a la henchmen in Guild Wars. You will have a real story to follow and play, which also adds to your experience. the only difference here for you between this and KotOR is the battle mechanic and the graphics. Same world, same story epicness, and same developer, which means same fun.

    You won't be anything special in this game; you won't be the lost exiled Jedi, or that one soldier who's strong in the force. No...now you're just some schmuck with a lightsaber, no different than the hundreds of other people around you.
