Re: I'm going to write a lot about TOR
I think I mentioned to you before that it felt like they were trying to just check boxes as far as class stories go. Got to have a Vader story, got to have an Emperor story, got to have a Boba Fett story etc. This is dumb.
Too many companions came late. Too many were fleshed out. There's a post out there with conversation text from all those extra companion quests that never made it into the game. Mined from the beta client. Most companions were unfinished.
More companions, more interesting companions, and I'd even suggest allowing you to us 2 to 3 companions in certain areas and definitely in class story areas.
I think HK-51 was intended for launch. Should be more of those. Just Treek and HK-51 now.
Never hear from your companions other than little quips and some Makeb stuff. Dumb.
Some of the skill trees are redundant, too. Marauder Rage and Jugg Rage aren't different enough to have both of them. Can definitely condense, especially with Warrior / Knight boring design.
Snipers should have a tank tree!

Yes. Spoilers if you care, but I'm guessing nobody does.fallenchicken wrote:Does the game ever reveal what happened to Revan and the Exile? I remember going to Revan's tomb or whatever during the early sith storyline.
Sorry to bring up Revan. Even years after the TOR forums, it's still a sore subject.
They went into the unknown regions to confront the Sith Emperor. He imprisons Revan. The Exile dies somehow (this is in a book. Her name is Meetra. Ugh). Revan's kept in stasis for like 300 years.
In TOR, Republic side goes into the facility, gets visited by Exile's force ghost. She tells them about the prison where Revan is being held. They go free him. Revan talks about stuff. Empire side, Empire takes over a republic ship to get access to a facility called the Foundry that builds droids and shit. HK and Revan are there. Empire fights Revan because he wants to genocide the Empire (this leads to salo's favorite moment in the game. Maybe I'm exaggerating). Revan stops the fight, disappears into thin air.

More spoilers that are recent-er:
Spoiler not that anybody cares.
More and shit.
The next story arc is either Revan focused or Revanite focused.

I originally hoped that storyline on DK was some sort of clever meta joke about the insane Revan love among Star Wars fans.fallenchicken wrote:The Revanites. Them I remember. How could I forget.
I was wrong.

These are just regular ol human face dicks and honestly it's really inappropriate for you to be objectifying me.

Do you want to rant about species or is that too easy?

Re: I'm going to write a lot about TOR
Species are terrible. Wasted opportunity. Devs would kill to have that sort of material to work with. I might be the only one to remember this because I'm a weirdo and remember weird things, but they posted on the forums pre-launch about Twilek bounty hunters and how the lekku would work with the armor. WHY DID YOU NOT THINK ABOUT LEKKU WHEN YOU WERE IMLEMENTING THE SPECIES? LOOK AT ALL THE STAR WARS SPECIES WHY ARE YOU JUST NOW WORRYING ABOUT CLIPPING ISSUES? WHY WEREN'T YOUR BASE MODEL AND ARMOR DESIGNS PUT TOGETHER WITH SHIT LIKE LEKKU IN MIND WHY CAN'T LEKKU JUST GO OVER THE FUCKING SHOULDER SOMETIMES CHRIST SWG HAD LIKE 7 DIFFERENT WAYS TO POSITION YOUR LEKKU AND THEY NATURALLY DRAPED TO ACCOUNT FOR HELMETS THAT GAME BASICALLY CAME OUT IN THE '80S.

Re: I'm going to write a lot about TOR
Maybe you were the only one to read it on the forums but I'm pretty sure you've ranted that story at me once or twice. :]
But chill out dude we got Miraluka after all.
