I think that sounds like comic material actually. Like Mass Effect: Redemption style. It sounds too short to me to be a game and likely wont have many twists in it and all. Plus they would likely not spend resources on that.

Empire just seems to be much more... well done, if you will. The animation quality, the aesthetics of the areas. They just seem so much better in general. I still prefer Republic story wise, but damn do I hate not having the amazing Imperial Agent animations on my Smuggler.

Codex would suggest there are titles, yes. Websites also claim there are on occasion, but I don't think you can actually unlock them. As far as main quest lines go, there are plenty.

I still want a damn SIS Agent. (Yes, would be too similar. I know. Why can't Smugglers just go SIS agent?)

Smuggler is easily the least played, with Imperial Agent the second least. It's different for every server of course, but all the polls had them pretty much arranged as the last two and from personal experience they definitely are least played. Not that it says much, personally I think they're definitely the most enjoyable when it comes to gameplay. (Story wise I am having really big issues liking the Smuggler though, IA's story is great)

The way the storylines and built doesn't allow for crazy races like that. They'll have to implement them in expansions, maybe. Don't count on it. It wouldn't work with the current game to have Hutts, Ewoks etc.

They are in the codex technically. But don't reward you with some meaningless point system or anything.

Main problem I just have is that it's the most out of character title I can think of (other than maybe The ubar l33t haxx0r ****pwner) But I don't really consider it a big deal. A gift is a gift, they also couldn't have given us anything.

...Can we have this as a cosmetic option BioWare? I want my floating head army.

trololololololololololololol.

I'm using Risha most of the time for story reasons. Both when playing Scrapper and Sawbones. I used Bowdaar for a while with Sawbones but I came to the conclusion that DPS companions are mostly more useful than the tank ones as their AI is just plain dumb and Bowdaar in particular seems in pretty bad shape. I suppose he works fine, but I never liked using him much.

They are scaled to be the same amount in the end though. If there are differences then those are very small and not significant unless you're doing some hardcore min/max raiding and will likely be fixed really shortly. Like there's a few differences in animation durations, cooldowns are a little difference between Smuggler and Imperial Agent but those are issues they are looking into.

Honestly this was one of the first things that I concluded when I started doing PvP back in the beta. Don't know if it'll change, but I just remember the "People don't like losing control over their character" quote that certain developers like using.

No, because they work 100% the same. Only difference is that they look different visually. Mechanically they are the same.

These are exactly the same. All mirror classes are exactly the same (Small differences in animations, numbers and such not withstanding, those will be fixed) For the Trooper vs. Bounty Hunter deal it's honestly 100% the same. Only difference is that the Bounty Hunter bar fills up and you have to vent heat while as a Trooper the bar drops and you have to reload. It just looks different. It works exactly the same and goes at exactly the same rate. No difference.
