  1. Thank you! πŸ‘ And we DO need to remind the Devs. It can't possibly take much effort for the team to switch the customisations to a different vendor or even to the cartel market (I would happily buy CC to get my hands on more Arcann customisations). It's crazy to keep awesome and coveted content like this gated behind an obsolete currency year after year.
  2. Adding my voice to this request! Please Devs, at least just give us access to Arcann's customisations πŸ™With Date Night released, now is the time to let us have the customisations again for even more variety and replayability.
  3. They missed the perfect opportunity to use one of the amazing tracks from KOTFE/KOTET (I was really hoping for Arcann's own 'Inner Flame' soundtrack, though I'll concede that might have been too much). Nothing will ever make me like those drums 😞
  4. I finally had time to go on a date with Arcann! ❀️πŸ₯°πŸ”₯ My immediate thoughts/walls of text are in the SPOILER tag (to be continued after I've had more time to digest everything and try other variations, I'm sure!):
  5. I don't know, that actually sounds quite Zakuulan (and really cool btw)! You just need to dedicate a pure Art Deco corner to him πŸ˜‰ My geek memorabilia/gaming room is colour-coded to Arcann πŸ˜„ I'm keeping everything monochrome with gold accents. The RGB lighting in my gaming PC and peripherals (all white) is set to match the cyan on the Zakuul city sign πŸ˜‰
  6. LOL πŸ˜„ I think all our characters are extremely conscious of the fact that love comes with family in this particular case πŸ˜‚ All of which is to say that my JK really needs alone-time with Arcann at this point πŸ˜‰
  7. We can finally talk about Date Night! πŸ₯³ Thank you so much for this Valentine's Day gift, Devs! ❀️ There will always be someone who disagrees, but in my opinion, this is the perfect thing to spend resources on. Aside from lightsabers, the one thing that sets SWTOR apart and makes it special in comparison to newer, better-funded MMOs is the companions. The more Dev love shown to them, the better! I'm so glad that ALL the romanceable companions will eventually have their own moment to shine. I realise some people will have to wait a while for their faves, but I think it'll be worth it to have a scene that feels truly unique to each companion (as Ashley and Caitlin described it in the Stream). I do think it makes sense to start with Arcann, Lana, Theron and Koth since, as they also pointed out, their romances are available to all classes and genders. A few Arcann-specific thoughts in the spoiler tags (I'm only writing about things that were revealed in the Live Stream yesterday, but in case anyone hasn't seen it yet): I never thought I would disagree with that statement, but this might be the one time! Normally, I always want more Senya, but I definitely don't need mom to turn up for Date Night! I adore Senya, but... her son is a grown man and needs some alone-time with the love of his life πŸ˜‰
  8. I just want to remind everyone to be careful what you discuss here on the official forum. I'm pretty sure we're not supposed to talk about unreleased and unannounced content. Aside from the datapad bug, there's also a certain item in the decoration list (unfinished and unplacable, but there) which the Devs haven't bothered to remove in months, so I'm not sure if it's supposed to be a secret or not. But everything else known about this potentially upcoming content is a result of datamining and definitely not something we should discuss in detail, even with spoiler tags. The next livestream just so happens to be on Valentine's Day... Fingers crossed that's not a coincidence! I really, really hope the Devs make an announcement then so that we can talk about this openly. Until then, I also want to remind everyone that @Siita and I have a Discord server dedicated to discussing all things Arcann and KOTFE/KOTET (including things that aren't appropriate to talk about here). If anyone wants an invitation, just PM one of us! πŸ™‚ As for how I feel about possibly getting certain yet-to-be-officially-announced Arcann content soon... I'm barely coherent from excitement right now and I have so many thoughts and feelings that I can't wait to talk about! 😊
  9. It's always wonderful to get these glimpses behind the curtain, and to see you (and the rest of the team) reiterate that you still care about all of the companion characters, including the ones who can be killed (and I think you have more than proven that with the amazing content we've had in recent updates for Arcann and Torian). I hope all of the writers on team view our calls for even more companion content as praise for writing characters that we are still emotionally invested in, even after some of them have been silent for years. Thank you again for taking the time to respond ❀️
  10. Time to resurrect this thread again! ☺️ I figure it'll be quite a while before we'll see Arcann again (I'm not complaining about that - he had no connection to the storyline of 7.4 and I'm still riding the high from Old Wounds!). While we wait and hope for more content featuring him in the future, I would love to exchange fandom/fanfiction/fanmerch recommendations with the rest of you. Here's a few from me: This is probably a little late for Christmas, but if any of you are looking for buy yourselves a gift, this wonderful seller on Etsy still has a few Arcann holograms for sale (commissioned and posed by @Siita and myself). We had the idea from the Vaylin holo that you can pick up from the palace in KOTET. "Let him light up your life" πŸ˜‰ I plan to pick up this squad of Zakuul Knight minis from Etsy, too. It should be a fun challenge to paint those! I've also been reaching out to some artists in the hopes of commissioning some artwork of Arcann and my JK in the new year. I hope to have something amazing to share in this thread soon ☺️One of the best pieces of Arcann I've seen recently is by BBSketchess, over here. Jake Bartok, who works as an illustrator for Lucasfilm, also did an interesting AU KOTOR piece with Arcann in it not that long ago. Edit: With the author's permission, I'd also like to recommend the fanfiction of StarettetheStar/@cosmicchar whose work can be found on Ao3. I really enjoy introspective character studies (sometimes more than romance fics) and these ones are very well-written. This one is my favourite ❀️ As for myself, I just finished a new story about the Old Gods and a very young, mortal, pre-possession Valkorion. It was a highly experimental piece for me and I don't expect many people to be interested in it, but I had so much fun writing it and I'm really happy with the result. I aim to write another chapter to my main story over the holidays (the one in my signature) and I have another WIP about Arcann hopefully ready to publish soon, too.
  11. I was going to post the exact same thing in one of the other threads (and only didn't because I felt I'd already complained too much about the bugged crate on release-day πŸ˜„). I agree completely. I was very sad not to see Aric or any of the other companions with a connection to Ord Mantell, too. I also love when they bring back minor NPCs from the base game storylines, but I wish their first priority would always be our old (and very neglected) class companions - and the same thing goes for letters. It does add flavour to get mails from obscure NPCs, but I would much, much, much rather hear from the companion characters. I heard that Lane's questline is really good and lots of fun. Looking forward to playing that next!
  12. I really enjoyed 7.4! This update was off to a rocky start for me with game-breaking bugs (the infamous crate) and the exorbitant price of the new dyes (which did sour my mood), but I found myself really enjoying the new story, characters and area in the end. Kessan's Landing looks great and you can really tell that a lot of love went into the area design. It's atmospheric and feels alive and lived in. I felt like both my tech and Force-using characters had reason to be invested in the events. I also really enjoyed seeing my JK looking awesome and using the Force so often in the cutscenes. All the new characters were interesting to me. Details in the spoiler tags: The plot is still moving forward at a snail's pace, but I didn't actually mind that in 7.3 or 7.4 because both updates have been so rich in character interaction and development.
  13. I gave up playing the new story update this evening as well. I spent an hour standing around a crate with a pile of people on top of it until I decided I can think of better things to do with my evening. As in, literally anything πŸ˜‚ I'm shocked that someone on the team would make such a basic a mistake when designing the quest. What on earth did they think would happen when you place a single crate with a lengthy respawn timer in a general area and lock the rest of the new story behind it? Why not simply put the clickable item in an instance or make it respawn instantly? This is really disappointing.
  14. I would like to know how long a "limited time" is. I was really looking forward to the new dyes and I knew they would be CM items, but demanding an exorbitant price for them and demanding it ASAP in December (at a time where many people would like to prioritise their RL Christmas budget) is very disappointing, tbh πŸ˜”
  15. /Signed! I would also buy a bunch IRL, if EA/Broadsword were able to produce SWTOR merch... (I realise that probably can't happen because of licensing, costs etc., but one can dream) πŸ™
