I'm starting to think I should clarify that first part more. What I'm saying is I am specifically tired of games with elves, and orcs, and mages, oh my!

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.

Yea, but in the end, that's actually a bonus... a good thing. It's a rite of passage that only force users get to engage in. The first time you light up that bad boy... ooooohhh yyeeeaaaa!!! Nothing in the other classes starting areas is half as cool.

I agree with most everyone here. Awesome job that summed up how I feel about playing this game over the other MMO that shall remain unspoken.

And yes, Jar Jar can go back into a hole somewhere.

I wish my wife would follow me and kill stuff I point at. I tried to get into the "other" game and she lasted to level 20 before she just threw up her hands and went back to Mario Kart.
