Star Wars: The Old Republic is a massively-multiplayer role-playing game set 300 years after the events of BioWare's Knights of the Old Republic series, but still approximately 3,600 years before the events of the films.
I don't mind paying $15 a month, if its an enjoyable experience. My only regret would be that once you get into a MMO, you tend to miss out on a LOT of other good games. I'm pretty sure my Nov. gaming time is going to be dominated by the new WoW expansion, irrespective of all the big releases this month. So...in a way, it actually saves you a lot of money. :P
I'd imagine it will be just like almost any other mmo, but no one is gonna confirm/deny this anytime soon, I doubt the game will even be heard of again with any kind of new updates, until mid 09, since it definitely won't be out until 2010.
Who knows...maybe by the time it comes out, the common monthly fee will be $20. Maybe it will be $10...the game is a long way from being released so there isn't any way to truly know how much the monthly fee will cost.
I just wanted another KOTOR game...I didnt want a fucking MMO...I loved the story in the first KOTOR game, an MMO is going to fuck it all up. God damn I hate Lucasarts and their shitty policies.

Yeah its saves you money because all you do is work and play wow, you don't go out.. so you don't get a chance to actually spend money on anything, let alone other games.
whatever the cost, it better hold my fucking attention for a very long time, I've been waiting for this game for a very long time.... I hope they know what they're doing.
Knowing Lucasarts there will be a monthly fee and likely it will stay around the same as what most other MMO's have chosen. That being said there is always the chance SWOR might go down the same path Guild Wars and Guild Wars 2 have chosen and have NO monthly fee.
Most likely there will be a fee. But its made by Bioware so it will probably be a good game. I will pay if its good enough. Galaxies was awesome until sony decided to fuck it up. :|
