At least within a science fiction context you're albe to imagine humanity evolving into that direction one day.

I just can't even. I blame Tommy Wiseau fans for why I'm unable to enjoy Tommy Wiseau.

EDIT: I was able to watch the whole thing. So there's that?

From what I hear from NDA people, SWTOR has major issues and isn't ready for a prime-time WoW-killing (or even Rifts-competing) launch. This is related to quarterly performance bonuses for management to ship by holiday/biz wanting the holiday sales window. Whether they lose money from lack of polish is up in the air i guess, but you really have to put your best foot forward with MMOs...

I've been in the beta for about 6 months and I've played every class to at least level 25 and i can say that the game is pretty fucking on point. At certain points there have been lag issues, there was a side quest and a story quest that didn't complete right but i was able to restart the quests and lost about 15 minutes on each, and bioware claims some of the endgame maps are inaccurate but i haven't seen it. It seems that all these things are beta problems and from what I've read in patch logs, the two quests I've had issues with have both been fixed.

I'm sure, though, that there will be problems during launch. It's an MMO. All the beta testing in the world can't prepare you for what happens when thousands and thousands of people launch your game at once (which is probably why they're giving people who preorder early access).

I can say that some stories are better than others. Even though I'm a light side guy, I prefer the Sith Warrior story over his counterpart, the Jedi Guardian. I prefer the Smuggler's story over the Bounty Hunter's.

Stories and launch bugs aside, though, playing each character is exactly as fun as you want it to be. And how fun is that? A bit more fun than WoW, just about as fun as 15 bucks a month.

It's a shame they left it this late considering the whole Star Wars Blu-ray debacle could be the final nail in the franchises coffin, LOL. Not sure how many people... who aren't crazy or 5... still love Star Wars?

Two words E.A. Mass & Effect ; )

The way I see it, those movies are less star wars than swtor is, at this point. They really don't have anything to do with each other.

Every game dosn´t need a secuel (Darksiders really?)

Yes, really.

That's a shame. Enslaved was one of my 2010 favorites for sure. Thankfully the game had a decent helping of closure. Fantastic job.

@Ulong said:

that is unfortunate. I liked enslaved well enough, but at the same time, I didn't buy it and help out the company. I thought it was a really good rental game, but not a game I'd really care to own. Shame there's no way to support companies that make games that are super worth renting and fun for one playthrough, but not constantly replayable enough for me to warrant wanting to purchase.

Nintendo's attempts at anything internet reminds me of the Mr Show sketch about imminent death syndrome.

People pretending interest here, I wonder if you gave The Ball a shot at all. Probably not, GB didn't tell you to give a shit about The Ball.

@somethingdumb: they're not they're selling them at full price

They better be selling the games for used prices.
