Agree. What is most annoying about Tatooine in particular is it's always 9AM in the morning (or there abouts considering with the twin suns laying low in the east and assuming like earth the planet rotation has the suns rising in the east and setting in the west). And the planet shadow rendering leaves a lot to be desired. With twin suns there should be two sets of shadows or sometimes none at all if one sun washes out the others shadows but none of this is the case. I applaud that Tatooine is in the game but more of an effort to make it 'right' would have been nice.

Whoosh! A clean miss on the entire point but thanks for playing. Care to go for double scores where the points can really build? EDIT: I'd explain it to you again using small words to help understanding but I'm not going to waste my time becase I'm doubting a closed mind would be open to change.

Indeed. It's endlessly interesting how people choose to spend their emotional capital.

Point taken. I still don't understand the emotions involved (and I'm guessing I never will). Nobody forced you to play the game month over month, year over year. Why would one EXPECT to be rewarded for something they voluntarily participated in? Would I turn my nose up at such rewards? No. Nor would I be feeling entitled to them either and that's where I'll agree to disagree with those who do feel said entitlement.

A uniquely capitalist point of view. This is akin to saying "why should people have as much influence in how our government is run, they don't pay as much into it as I do?" See the phalacy?

Well, I suppose what you're saying would make sense in a real universe. But SWTOR isn't the real universe in case this is news. For SWTOR it actually makes sense (to me) to base travel costs on the level of the destination vice it's distance to be traveled to. Plus, it's a lot easier to calculate than the cost of travelling to Hoth from say Alderaan versus the cost to Hoth from Taris for example. Also, lower level players where credits are an issue could be impacted more negatively by a distance/cost model than the system currently in place. I agree about the usefullness of 'orbital stations'. They've outlived their value (if they ever had any). I've no doubt going back to that 'real' universe that orbital stations would be a must but not in the SWTOR universe.

This is actually somewhat humorous considering the other threads on this topic where those high level legacy people are bitter that this is being offered in the cartel shop AT ALL! That group is looking at that option as a slap in the face (which is just as silly as worrying about it being available as an unlock to people with the appropriate legacy level). Yep, irony can be pretty ironic.

I guess I don't understand all of this angst about legacy ( and yes, I'm legacy level 50). It's not like you actually WORK on legacy. It's just something that happens as you play the game. So why in the name of the force do people feel this entitles them to stuff just because they play the game more than the next guy? It's nice to get unlocks etc. from legacy but I have no sense of entitlement to such things and I'm frankly mystified why people have the sense of entitlement with regards to legacy?

I'm thinking this is a serious response not made in jest. So, my thoughts on that fact are the following: If you gave 1000 people $1000 no questions asked and no strings attached, some people would complain - why is it ONLY $1000? Why did that person get the same grant I did, I'm better than they are? Etc., etc. I'm guessing you're one of those that would complain in this way.

Well said and spot on.

Untrue. IMHO it was well worth a paltry $10 and I'm still enjoying it as are many others in the game. Sure, a bigger xpac would be nice but anything new is welcome.

This is the only way. I would ask why you are bothering though? Just for fun? The usefullness of the datacrons has been eclipsed by better easily obtainable relics is why I ask.

Easy on the meds, bad things will happen. BTW, your propensity for complaining about anything and everything in these forums is well known. So why would anyone take your latest whinefest seriously?

Wow, you do a lot of complaining on muliple topics in multiple threads. Maybe SWTOR isn't for you?

Funny how this topic comes up from time to time in EVERY MMO ever created. There are guys (I'm one) who don't have issues and are not uncomfortable in the least with playing female toons. Then there are guys who feel like playing a female toon is an afront to their masculinity and view any guy that does play a female toon as having 'fairy-like' tendancies. Whatever, I don't fret much over what others think in my chosen way to play a game. It is sometimes amusing when guys assume for some reason that the person behind a female toon is in RL female and hit on you. Especially when considering most of those female toons are in fact guys in RL.
