Cape@Agreed

GRIF @ Are you LADY DEATH lol??!

bioware rules! kotor 1 was the shiet, kotor 2 not so much, but it had its good sides

its a turn based role playing game, of course the action in the game isn't going to be as exciting as games where you actually control every movement of the character.

It was pretty cool. The villain looks crazy bad ass. Sorry Grif. Opinions are just that and I should respect yours.

I think I would have enjoyed a kotor 3, I'm not a fan of continually paying for a game. I wish these MMO's had a solo offline version for those who don't care to pay subscription fees.

anyone else think that head sith guy looks like malek from kotor 1

Looks sick, this looks like a must have game, all those siths coming out of the ship. This game alone is better than the whole Star Trek franchise

moar funny pictures

Old Republic Online takes place three-hundred years after KotOR - it isn't Malak.

And folks, the reason that MMOs require a subscription fee is to pay support staff, to run servers, and to develop new content. Even taking away overhead costs for the company like the above, consider this:

Even if you only manage to play four hours a week, that's sixteen hours a month, at a cost of fifteen dollars. That's less than a dollar an hour, and likely less than the price of seeing a movie and getting snacks ONCE in a month, which only provides two hours of entertainment. You're not going to find a better value. If you're a hardcore gamer and play more than that - even eight hours a week - you're now paying less than fifty cents per hour of entertainment. Its just not that expensive, comparatively. Especially considering a game like TOR has a start-up budget in the tens of millions, PLUS server and support costs. That is all money that needs to be made back before they even start to turn a profit.

As for non-RP chat on an RP server, it takes time to find the 'good' people in any community.

OptionFour - You talk a good case! Like I've said, I may have to look into this when pricing is announced. I've never played an MMO so don't really know what bonuses there are compared to your average RPG (ie, KOTOR, Oblivion).

I get why you need to pay a subscription fee OptionFour, and i also get how it's not that expensive if you break it down. But I still can't justify the expense, because I can spend 40 on a regular game and not have to pay an extra cent for the countless hours of entertainment. I think that if they offered a few free months with the purchase of the game it might make it easier to justify, but it's usually just a few weeks of free play that come with the original purchase. I just think I should get a little more content up front, I mean I pay 40 bucks to install the program on my computer and get a few weeks of game time? When you buy the game you should get as much play time as the cost of that you payed for the soft wear.
