open your eyes bud...nothing of what he said is off...specially the undenying sink of the sw failboat that maybe...MAYBE free to play will save(jsut like he said..
I think you need to tone down your "fanboyism" of this so called face of the industry. What a joke this is and thanks for a good laugh, now go watch your Jesus on the so called best MMO website.

I don't know if I agree with everything he was saying. The Degabah thing was either a sarcastic joke or proof of total ignorance of the actual game. Being a fan of the show I would bet on sarcastic joke. In my personal opinion this game is in trouble. It needs something huge to save it. Yes transfers helped a lot. If you really think about it. Is this move going to bring new people to the game? The answer is probably not. I went to best buy yesterday and picked up a copy of SWTOR just to look at it. The Best Buy sales representative looked at me and said "you don't want to buy that, the game is dead". BioWare has put a bad taste in a lot of peoples mouths. Word of mouth is probably one of the strongest marketing tools out there.

I'm completely bored of this game. 1.3's fluff with ranked WarZones are not enough to keep me playing. Once this sub runs out i'm probably done. I wish I could get my money back on everything because looking back it wasn't worth it. Another MMO with so much potential wasted.

Or people could make up their minds for themselves and not rely on others to decide what they should think.

Must be quite the novel concept for you.

I will say that I have a few friends that are about to try out this game when they open up their F2P to level 15. Even my wife wants to give it a try when that starts, because she has some friends that are going to do it.

The game should have launched as B2P with a cash shop.

Subscription's are harder to justify than the initial purchase or shiny mounts.
Ganking leads to anger, anger leads to hate, hate leads to pvp.
The Swtor forum attracts trolls because the forums are more fun than raiding dragon soul.
Complaining is the new meta game.

Agreed--especially when subscriptions only amount to "paying for stuff the developers should have put in if they had just waited for launch" these days.

Exactly. It's like saying because Steam is the #1 digital service, whatever they say goes on games. At most they have like 4.5 million people logged in at once. If you take their high and low points you might say there are anywhere from 6 to 8 million steam users. There are more gamers out there than 6 to 8 million that have no idea what Steam is.

Dude, no matter how much you gush over him, he's not going to go out on that date with you.

Missed transfers? Um, don't know what he's talking about, since transfers are still ongoing. You can't miss anything if it's still happening.

Radio silence? On this one, I'll agree with him. If, of course, by "radio silence" you mean news and updates every single day for two weeks.

Outrage? What outrage? There certainly isn't much on these forums, and what few there are have been over stupid things like "I can't transfer all twelve of my characters" or "Waaaaah! I have to change my name."

Dagobah? DAGOBAH? And you still insist on calling him a professional whose opinions are taken seriously?


The game needs work, there's no doubt about that. But you're just embarrassing yourself with your blind worship of this guy.
