Ewoks? I don't want to be a hater so I'll just say I liked them as a kid. Hopefully that's not their target market.

Yes the one thing that ruined "Return of the Jedi" for me. Whilst the fight between Darth and Luke made it,,, shame that music is not in the game...just thinking abt it makes me want to go watch it again.

Thank you so much for posting something positive. I think you pretty clearly pointed out why many of us find SWTOR a WoW killer.

Troopers start with the bad*** distinction of being a Sgt. No one really wants to be an officer. Sgt. is the way to go! And, they start with the weapons they will move forward with. Rifles, blasters, etc.

I kinda feel like Jedi get the short end of the stick. They'll give noobie gun shooters REAL guns right out of the gate. But Jedi, who are supposed to be responsible, in control of their powers and able to make major life and death decisions, get a glowing plastic bat?

What gives?

But, a good article OP! Put a smile on my face!
While I agree that the training swords feel sucky... it's worht it for that sense of achievement when you get your first lightsaber. It was just.. awesome. Hearing that perfect sound effect when you draw it for the first time. And feeling like a ****** when you get to use it.

Ewok with a lightsaber? I'd play that.

Poor form here. I live in Baltimore and traffic is bad enough on 695 - 83 exchange, without having to add a plane flight into the commute to work
How about we launch The District? I doubt it would make my commute from NoVA any longer. *sigh*
Love. Can know all the math in the 'verse but take a boat in the air that you don't love? She'll shake you off just as sure as a turn in the worlds.

Yeah I will never understand how people can sit on the beltway for so long every day. It makes no bloody sense.
