INB4 nerd, get a life, go outside, go get laid etc etc etc...

I figured it would be a great idea to make a comprehensive thread on SWTOR seeing as it comes out in 12 days!!!

If you don't know. Here's a quick video to get you stoked.


So who is all going to play this game?
What side will you be, republic or empire?
What class? What race?

I'm thinking Sith inquisitor sorcerer (healer).

There's more to star wars than just the movies produced, like all of the novels published.

If this game was free to play, I would definitely play it. I don't want to pay like 15 a month for it...

Totally worth it! You won't be buying any other games while playing this which makes up for the $15 a month.

You lucky SOB! I'm still waiting for my operating system to arrive for my new computer (should come today).

How is Fatman? is it PVE or PVP?

What are you playing?!

I spy the original millenium falcon.

Just a question, if this took place roughly 3000 years BEFORE the Star Wars saga, how come there are clone troopers?

Either way, I used to play like the old republic games (the one where you were a random jedi who escaped a massacre at some planet). Looks like I have to get this one.

this originally was a "sequel" to kotor 2 so in the game the timeline is thusly around that era. as far as the "clone troopers," they're not clones but rather soldiers of the republic. at least thats what ive gathered from watching/reading the endless coverage going to the release.

That just one. I'm sure the game designers are not stupid enough to put clones in a game that takes place before the clones existed

is anyone else reminded of a certain Ben Kenobi on a certain Death Star when he sacrificed himself to get young Luke and company out of there? i was slightly insulted at the likeliness.
