The current creator for SWTOR is a pile.
Yet it is currently functional and not overwhelming for new players and can be changed down the line!!!

Also not a game breaking issue!

The force is NOT strong with you. This most surely IS a true story, but if you do not believe me... I really don't care.

I agree, at least he's using real time critical thinking

Yeh it bothered me too, pretty much at no point in the game does my jedi/sith actually feel like a jedi/sith. They cant jump high at all, they take huge amounts of fall damage from even pathetic drops, they're incredibly weak compared to most npc's and bosses.. having 4 jedi hit some boss for 10 minutes to take him down doesnt make u feel very powerful, my marauder has practically no 'traditional' force powers (force push/pull, lightning etc).

But all that being said it comes down to balance and gameplay, and those things (should) always trump anything else. I only wish gameplay trumped 'story' in many of the more restrictive areas than it does.

Or he could be learning a second language, playing an instrument or participating in some sport - you know, that cultural character building stuff.

I can’t tell you how to raise your child, but I can freely comment on how disturbing I find this.

Oh, we can float off the ground for a couple of seconds as we vent heat too. Ironic, when you figure that rockets generate heat, they don't disperse it.
Actually; if I'm not totally mistaken, rockets produce and vent the heat generated by the combustion of a fuel and air mixture which is a dispersment of ecxess heat and energy. This venting process is then chaneled into a "choke" shaped vent to create thrust. I could be wrong but I'll let the real rocket scientists answer that.
