Is anyone interested in Star Wars the Old Republic?

Started by Nephthys105 pages

The Republic was much worse than in shambles. GO-TO explicitly says that it'll completely collapse in a few weeks/months without something happening. Bioware had better have a damn good explanation on that one.

Probably Revan did stall the Emperor for a time but was ultimately defeated. Maybe he did enough damage to stop an invasion. IDK.

Negative review.

If I recall correctly, the Empire wasn't ready to attack until 300 years after KOTOR and the only reason it was moving its plans up was the finding of the Star Forge. Since Revan destroyed that, the plans stayed as usual. Yea, I thought Revan held them at bay for 300 years but ultimately, his disappearance was meaningless and there was no reason to cast him in this game unless he had a pivotal role.

I guess to me, that doesn't make a lot of sense. They have been rebuilding this Empire for a 1000 years by the point of Kotor, plenty of time to develop the necessary infrastructure and military-industrial complex to orchestrate a war, especially on a heavily weakened and battered Republic.

Revan's whole point in Kotor 1 + 2 was that teh Sith were just about to invade. Isn't that why they sent him back to the Republic in order to weaken it for their invasion? And in Kotor 2 he runs off because he remembers they're going to invade.

If the Empire wasn't ever going to invade for 300 years then neither of the previous games make any sense.

If the Sith were just about to invade, then there would be no urgency in looking for the Star Forge, unless of course they weren't prepared.

Only according to Kreia and maybe G0-T0. This game shows she is wrong.

Interesting review. I'm surprised he didn't include the most obvious thing which was a total lack of continuity.. I sure as hell won't be buying or downloading this crap. If there weren't so many morons in this world, low quality stuff wouldn't be made.

It isn't obvious to anyone but us SW nerds. Plus we're the only ones who actually care.

Are we the only star wars nerds out there? I'd be shocked if this game was even half as popular or profitable as TOR.

I'm just saying, he didn't mention it because he probably doesn't see it or care about it that much.

a guy who makes Nihilus look like a gnat

I obviously have no use for this game

Edit: The negative review link is borderline unreadable

Yeah that guy is kind of a giant throbbing chode.

You know, I know what boffing is, but I had to look up what chode is at the Urban dictionary.

Chode... hehe

Anyway if his biggest complaint is graphics I can't take his review seriously. Honestly, for a MMO, this game looks beautiful! Have you seen Ilum!

I'm not concerned about graphics for the most part. If I wanted graphics I'd play AION.

If I want graphics, I wouldn't play a retarded MMO.

More like "all talk". What makes him think he's above the Emperor or even on his level? So far the only ones I've seen that are impressive enough are Baras and Revan.

I'm going to be a Sith Warrior and I'm going to totally tap that ass just so I can rub it in the guys face.

Or at least half of it.
