Shulot Posted November 13, 2019 Share Posted November 13, 2019 That pet is really cute. Looking forward to getting it and hoping Fallen Order has a good run. But, I have one question about the pet, is this account wide or just one character per account? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Storm-Cutter Posted November 13, 2019 Share Posted November 13, 2019 Is that it? Just a mini-pet. There should have been another expansion to go with a movie release. - A suite of planets from the film, ( (Ahch-To or Krait for instance ) a sideline story, something to give the flavour of the struggle, a PVP map a GSF scenario and tons of outfits, lots of new character races, new companions - like a BB8 unit .... and lots of juicy advertising for the game. But no. Mini pet.....nothing more. Pffft! I really think they miss a trick here..... Time and again. SMH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, I have one question about the pet, is this account wide or just one character per account? Thanks. It is account wide. Similar to other promotional items once you qualify (so just logging in) you will then receive a mail on any current or new character which contains the mini-pet. Thanks! -eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks! -eric Slightly OT but it would be nice if you guys would just, create a Collections section for this sort of stuff instead of me having to spend half an hour digging through 44 mails on new characters to activate all mounts and pets, and deleting stuff I don't care for.

BlastBoomArt Posted November 13, 2019 Share Posted November 13, 2019 I've gotten so tired of being forced to play male protags in games that I refuse to play any that don't have a choice anymore. Honestly, yeah. That's why I won't be buying Fallen Order, despite how big of a Star Wars fan I am. I think all kinds of games should exist, even ones that only have a guy as the protagonist. But it does get to be pretty disheartening when it seems like that's all there is, and you rarely get to see yourself represented in your favourite media. I actually broke down and cried in the theatre as the credits rolled the first time I saw The Force Awakens. (much to the amusement of the people sitting infront of me lol) It just felt so amazing and overwhelming to finally see myself as a protagonist in a franchise that I care so much about. This is honestly the reason I love Bioware's games so much. They've certainly got their flaws as a company, but they create these massive worlds that I can completely lose myself in and never make me feel like an outsider watching someone else's story unfold. Bioware's games make me feel like it's MY story. - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sharkfishman Posted November 13, 2019 Share Posted November 13, 2019 I just wanted to pop in and say how nice it was to get a cool looking pet (instead of YET ANOTHER R2-inspired mode). Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bioware's games make me feel like it's MY story. - Basically yeah. There are a few games now with a female protagonist (Tomb Raider etc). A few less with a choice but for the most part - in adventure games or rpgs - the main character is male. Its still very male dominated with 3 to 4 male protags for every one choice or female one. In fact I don't think I've seen a rpg yet that didn't have a choice that isn't a male protag. I did purchase Greedfall (yay for choice) will 100% be getting Cyberpunk but thats about it for me for games for the next couple of yrs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
