So who has pre-ordered this?

Digital and Deluxe seem way too expensive. Think I will order at Game.co.uk

So we can pre-order now? It's cinematic videos blow my head but..

I consider myself as a huge Star Wars fan but every single SW game failed horribly so far ( I loved space battles on Empire at War though.). I know EA invested huge amount of money ( $200k correct me if i'm wrong ) on this one, everyone is taking a bright view of it BUT i just can't combine Star Wars with a MMO. Well if i only look at another MMOs based on other trilogies like the Matrix and LOTR, it would be fair to say they failed too, and i can't see a reason for this one is going to succeed. And to be fair making a MMO is not easy. We witnessed a lot of MMOs fall in a month or so which called "WoW Destroyer" by their developers, players and fans and I might cry if this one takes the path the others took.

Well if i can look at this in a CEO's or invester's eyes, there's 100% guaranty that a MMO will make more profit than a single-player game. It's sales, monthly subscribes etc. but this can also damage it's name & prestige. I can't say which one is more important in their eyes.

I'm going to whine like everybody else here; make it single-player with an awesome story! Make KoToR 3 goddamn it! ( also Valve start making that fkkn Half-Life !! )

I'm actually currently not that convinced by the footage I've seen so far, after a long while back being very hyped about it, before we had any details. I guess we'll see.

Strifium likes KOTOR 1 or/and 2 enough to want 3rd, but thinks every SW game has failed so far?

I'll wait for free trial to try the mmo

I believe SW Galaxy was quite succesfull SW-MMO...

Who said that i like KoToR? I can't deny that i enjoyed playing but it wasn't quite catchy. Dialogs and it's environment was epic but lets face it, gameplay and combats wasn't that good. And I wouldn't mind if they decided to make KoToR 3 instead of The Old Republic. No doubt that one would be more successful and contain more epicness & content. That even goes for Warcraft (except Blizzard's wealth now.).

In the other hand I just remembered the Force Unleashed's existence.. My argument about "all SW games sucks" collapsed.

Surely they won't release with it being so excessively taxing/unoptimised/whatever. I'd be very surprised if they do. Could also be some insane bugchecking or reporting shit or ... well, whatever. Such a small number of characters + that hardware -> it would surely just explode lower end kit (and the game doesn't look that pretty soo...)

talked to kelrathos' brother yesterday who is currently level 28 in the swmmo beta. he was a huge kotor fan and he simply loves the 'singleplayer' leveling experience. But he has had one chance to do an instance so far which was underwhelming. pvp is totally useless with characters autoturning to cast spells and such. He is playing a healer and combined with the npc companion he hasn't found quests that he couldn't solo.
there is no apparent lategame content currently so he was really hoping for a delayed release so they could improve pvp and add endlevel pve. if they don't he saw the game as kotor 3 with a few mmo elements.
