How do you feel about the old republic?

My interest in it as a traditional MMO, which I will play for mechanics, leveling, PvP, etc. - Next to zero. I have little faith in Bioware's ability to balance a MMO well enough to make it compelling over the long term, the graphics look risible in the marketing copy I've seen to date, and I'm not fond enough of the Star Wars universe to really have an interest in inhabiting it long term.

My interest in it as a story-based Bioware RPG experience with co-op/multiplayer grafted into it - Very High. I can see getting a lot of mileage out of this game if the storytelling holds any water at all, and from what I hear out of the beta, it does.

People whining about "Not a real sequel to KOTOR" and "WoW with lightsabers" need to actually read up on the game instead of looking at screenshots and thinking "meh". It may not be KOTOR 3, but it's pretty goddam close, and there looks to be a massive amount of content.

I'll be getting this AND Guild Wars 2, and enjoying both.

I almost couldn't care less about TOR. My interest in MMO's is at an all-time low, especially due to my lack of funds. Still... if it turns out to be good.... I might give it a try. :3

Well I do like Star Wars, just not enough to pay the 40 quid plus subscription fees.

Honestly I'm terrified the last game I played similar to SWtOR I played that was Star Wars based raped me and everyone else so bad at the end that I'm surprised SOE wasn't burnt to the ground. Now I hate SOE, but I love... no thats not right. I adore Bioware. Its like a shimmering jewel in a ocean of crap. So I am willing to put my own pride aside and try this new Star Wars MMO game.

From what I've seen so far its ether going to revolutionize MMOs as we know it or its going bomb and its going to bomb hardcore. They are taking quite a few unconventional turns in the game some of which many hardcore MMORPG fans are shaking their heads at. (Like in game cinematic)

I bought it, I'm going to play it. I love KoToR I should at the very least get swept in the story.

The Old Republic is far to old for me. I prefer the New Republic.

The New Republic lasted barely twenty years before falling apart!
