Yeah this is simply amazing...

I'm actually thinking I wouldn't mind if they scrap this game and use the money to create a few movies in this style. :p

Seriously though, I need more gameplay footage!

Haha, I was just thinking this. The game (in my opinion) looks quite bad, these trailers really don't do much, yeah they look cool and they're nice to watch, but it's not like it convinces me in any way to give them money. If they made a film though I'd probably go see it.

Yeah, they make some really nice videos, and the smuggler has a sweet hat. I'm in favour of them making a few CGI animated movies instead of a game.

Because the gameplay is lacklustre at best from what I've seen.

Y'know, in this day and age, I don't find cinematic trailers all that impressive anymore. Back in the PS1 days, when there was still a novelty to it, they were cool. Now though, everyone and his dog is releasing them, and they are totally, utterly unrepresentative of actual gameplay.
Maybe this'd hold merit with SWTOR if they hadn't released two other trailers before this one that consisted of NOTHING BUT gameplay footage:

The PAX East one:

And the E3 one on Friday that contains the stuff they'll talk about presumably during this week:

And that's not counting the class progression and reveal trailers either, that give even more pure gameplay!

But hey...don't let that stop the crying this community loves so much. I think I hear comments of 'how the graphics suck' incoming next, regardless of the fact that once ingame no one will give a shit so long as the aesthetics are consistent (which they are immensely).

Looks like they didn't ever watch those Red Letter Media reviews, which would have listed out exactly how to make a good Star Wars film...

Ok, so since when did Sith = Empire? I'm a child of the originals, and in those, the Empire was separate to the Sith. The fact that the Emperor was one seemed to be just because he was the big bad guy. We even showed disdain for the lightsaber, referring to one as a Jedi's tool, as though he wasn't one, nor used one.

Why is the technology not vastly different to the films?

Why have they packed in double edged lightsabers (he asks, knowing the answer)?

Ugh. Yeah, visually it's gorgeous, but it's not like they're short of money. The storyline is dull... how could the original three films have three different stories, and yet everything since is so formulaic?

Final bugbear, it's not game footage! The game looks to be awesome, I wanna see that! Save these for in game story...


I'll give it this though, the trailer is far better than the prequels. All of them

Some one well need to push Lucas's fat ass out of the chair.

I loved the trailer, it made me really want to play the game, which no trailer has done in a long time.

You seem to have no understanding of the universe at all. I would suggest playing the KOTOR games to get a better understanding of it all before complaining. :)

How much does it cost to make these cinematic trailers in length compared to a normal film out of curiosity?

I hate the fact that "smuggler" basically means "Han Solo", from the cowboy style to the ship* (exterior and interior) to, iirc, a wookiee companion later on in the game.

Shout outs to the movies are one thing, but it just feels utterly unimaginative and unambitious.

[sub]*and of course it's the fastest ship in the sector, but it's not pretty... sigh...[/sub]

I loved it, but I want to be a Jedi with the bad ass duster. I hope they will let me.

I felt...things, during that trailer that I haven't felt in a long time. I can't wait.

All I can say is...it's not Knights of the Old Republic III. So...boooooooooooo

Edit: Pardon Dusty. He's just carrying a grudge.

I honestly think these little cinematic's for SWTOR actually have better combat scenes than the actual films.

Not entirely serious, maybe.

I believe that smuggler might've been smuggling cheese instead.

Nothing wrong with cheese though. ;)
