In Attack of the clones we see a profound romance between Anakin/Padme, the inception of the Clone wars, and Palpatine beginning to usurp power. With it's groundbreaking special effects, and wonderful acting from Hayden Christensen (his bursts of emotion, impetuousness, and breaking down at his moms death), we see one of the most underrated films of the SW saga. How do you think it compares to TOR? Do you feel any of the SWTOR protags go through a similar transformation as Anakin, or the political drama in AOTC is better than Vitiates Sith empire machinations/Zakuul?

Tbh as bad as AotC was in comparison to the OT and its successor. TOR was borderline stupid. The Trooper, Smuggler, Hunter and Agent stories were far more interesting but were obviously eclipsed by the DBZ esque bull of the Jedi Story(tbh I found the Barsenthor one ok and the Nox one was somewhat compelling if you played as a slave)
Not to mention that AotC held the force in a mystical and mysterious aura. While TOR was treated like... Well honestly? Like Dragon Age Magic. Aurbere and I were talking about this on Wednesday and yeah. The way the Force was portrayed betrays the entire principal of the Star Wars Universe and it feels so deeply and unnecessarily convoluted. The Vanilla game is at best comparable to TPM. But AotC at least stays true to its principals in regards to the Force and gave us some character development on our main hero, Anakin.
