Nah, I am going to cancel I think. I was an ardent supporter of WAR when it first released because the game was a great deal of fun with the PQ's etc. It has taken me a few months to realize that I just don't like the game. ![]()
Here's hopinig this game is fun and not Darkfail. ![]()

I am realizing it's no sandbox either. Crafting is also just a addon. They made it clear crafting is not high on their list.
I fear Bioware is following the WoW formula.
The cartoony direction will turn me away quick if they plan to go the kiddie direction.
I never played WoW because of the cartoony style, and that will also go for this game if that's what they are heading for.
Bioware is going to fail bigtime if they WoWify KOTOR
Lets hope they don't
IF WE WANT WOW WE WILL PLAY WOW!
Well, at least I still have EVE. Kudos to CCP for having the nads to make an MMO not following WoWs shadow.
Lol, I felt the same way. Whenever I see them mentioning "heroic" or using "heroic archetypes" for the classes it makes my skin crawl. Maybe I want to be like Porkins in Ep 4 and just be a fat fuck who lumbers around the universe eating and flying my x-wing. It makes the universe seem dead to me to see the same chisel jawed guys running around with unbelieve physiques. Ugh, and I can't wait till they introduce loot based crafting which is again an epic fail. I was so excited about the announcement of this game and everything I'm seeing afterward is turning me off.
I hate to say this but the more information that comes out about this game, the less and less I get excited about it. I really hope they implement a fun and useful crafting system or I'm not even going to bother playing. WAR and AoC both took the route that crafting is not an essential part of the core game and it definitely lessened my enjoyment of both games. I don't particularly love the crafting in WoW either as most of the professions are useless.
As far as the saber models etc. they have said that they want an "epic" feel to the look of the game so that players feel as if they are living a hero's journey. I understand the desire for that but again, I don't want to see people running around with 2 ft. lightsabers just so they can show them off. If the sabers are looted items I'll be further bummed out as this completely eliminates lore at all. Now, taking a saber from another jedi is a bit different but for god's sake don't let lightsabers drop off mobs that have no reason to have them.

Hey I like playing as human in sci-fi games, though I could care less about being a Jedi even though I unlocked it in SWG. I want to be a mercenary or Bounty Hunter in this game if possible.
I'm a lot like you even though I really enjoyed playing my jedi back in SWG. The constant stress of watching over my shoulder for an approaching BH/Gank Squad made leveling that character like nothing I have ever experienced in an MMO. However, for TOR I'm really wanting to be a Mando character. I don't think they are putting them in the game because they have been scattered after the war with Revan/Malik but god that would be awesome. Mandalore was always my favorite toon from the Kotor games.
How do you feel about advertising inside games?
