play swtor
>>717084096 (OP)WHEN are they going to bring back star wars galaxies?
>>717084180please move on boomer. its over
>>717084096 (OP)do not do this
>>717084180i'm playing it now, the JTL isnt worth NGE garbage though.
>>717084180>>717084364yes play on one of the nearly empty servers with severely autistic manchildren that are too autistic to migrate everyone to one sever so they continue to fuck the community or play on the nge server ran by multiple troons and troon lovers or the hybrid onet that runs spyware
>>717084603instead of swtor yeah definitely. any of those options are superior.
i won't lie i had a small urge to re install it a few months ago
>>717084096 (OP)I often think about it...
>>717084096 (OP)i already am. just started the jedi knight story yesterday.
>think about adding the security key for the monthly cartel coins
>decide I probably won't play it enough for it to matter
This was years ago. Every couple months when I reinstall and play it I keep having this argument with myself and decide it is too late to be worth it and do the key thing, this has happened multiple times now.
>>717085987you still wouldn't be able to afford anything after years of having it.
>>717086864That is true, I bought enough coins for the Sith race then never touched the store again.
>>717084096 (OP)3.2 SOR era private server when
>>717084096 (OP)I tried few times, and even if I enjoyed playing through the stories as my star wars waifu I still dropped off around mid-way through all of them because the mmo elements between the story bits are just bad and swtor gameplay is just boring as shit
>>717087571I wish
Leveling before KotFE was amazing. I miss spending 6+ hours on each planet and all of them having their own commendations to buy gear with
I also miss them not being polluted with the shitty world quest system from wow
i am actually!
even subbed for a month
>>717084096 (OP)Restarted a sith inq as an assassin yo
i blw a load to swtoristas stream
>>717084096 (OP)the tor republic is alright, when I make a new character every now and then some vet always gives me a ton of cash for no reason
>>717087884who tf let Mako shop at hot topic
Poomp darth Zash full of hot sith Lube
it's the last star wars game that has exceptional music and a star wars feeling
>>717088349great grandma zash
will only replay class stories then drop it.
master or power for more damage?
I've finished all the class stories but i'm dreading the DLCs.
I really don't want to be the specialest boy with his own faction of grey jedi or whatever fighting emperor evilus the meanie and his first order.
>>717084096 (OP)Make an offline version and I'll play it.
>>717088919shadow jedi/sith
>>717089516Just because of stealth?
>>717089569no because its a tank with heals, the stealth is very nice though
>>717084096 (OP)this game has a thread nobody knows about
>>>/vm/1831753
reminder merc rework in the next patch
>>717089603But tanks deal next to no damage?
>>717089829they deal plenty of damage
>>717089735thats fine, nobody should learn of swtor lest they get their hopes up
im fucking this guy i guess
>rodians in new star wars just speak plain english
When did they go away with giving alien species their own voice
Lmao dark side Trooper is hilarious
>make unwanted sexual advances towards war victims and secretaries
>let 300 Republic prisoners die to save the woman you had a one-night stand with (she ends up mentally broken afterwards and never bangs you again anyway)
>shoot a senator during the middle of a senate hearing for expressing valid concerns on the behavior of Havoc Squad (such as killing senators during the middle of senate hearings) before threatening the other senators present with accusations of being commie spies
>constantly threaten your direct superior who is a grandma who the devs gave a phat ass for no apparent reason
It's like I'm roleplaying a US marine
>>717090636as fem shephard no doubt?
>>717088249That seems like extremely easy access from sideboob... Could just pull that aside whenever.
>>717084096 (OP)I was surprisingly enjoying it but I quit because it's abundantly clear the devs do not give a single fuck about actually improving the game and are dedicated to just placating the dwindling but vocal userbase with gay and retarded cosmetic items and other inconsequential bullshit.
>>717090870they did update a bunch of lighting, planets that stuff and are rebalancing classes with the following updates plus more story with voices now that the strike is over
>did all class stories (and only class stories while leveling except for first time on planet)
>never touch the game again
yep gg
republic stories are largely boring and a lot of the game is just auto-run simulator on your mount while you go from point A to B. i realized it after awhile, but genuinely most of my time spent in the game was going from place to place on my mount
>>717090909Just imagine the Sith girl milk.
>>717090636that phat ass is entirely reasonable
>be sith inquisitor
>this holocron near the start of the story has been locked for over 1000 years no one can figure it out
>shoot sith lightning
>it opens
and people say the writing for the class stories arent shit
>>717091008I'm currently struggling with this. I'm honestly enjoying the storylines but the traveling is a killer. It doesn't make the worlds feel big, it makes them feel tedious. I fast travel whenever I have the chance.
>>717091102This actually pissed me off initially. I thought i9t would have been sucha unique twist for the holicron to open if you meditated on the light side because no sith would think of that but no. It was just shoot lightning at it. My guess is that they wanted it to be opened through anger and it would only open for you because it was meant to by the will of the force because you're an extra special boy.
>>717091008I have this problem but with FFXIV
>>717090636Evil jedi knight also has the same vibe. Not really for the consular. Being an evil jedi consular just makes you feel completely incompetent at your job and sort of circumvents the class fantasy in a boring way. You're not a "mediator" or a detective you're just another murderhobo asshole who tripped their way up the corporate ladder.
>>717091259>>717091102the inquisitor storyline is all about you having special blood n shit but also maybe it just got too old to stay locked.
>>717091102that class story was really dumb. everything is just
>i fail, but in the end it works out lol>>717091158yeahhhh, kinda sucks major ass. i think eventually you just get used to it and put something up on 2nd monitor to help reduce the boredom. when the story is hitting on high notes (and only doing story missions) then you have the next story progress to look forward to while you're running around. "is this going to advance things a lot now?" etc.
your 2nd or third time going through the maps will make you just sigh upon landing down because you'll remember the bad parts of just afk essentially.
>>717091565inq shold have been the warriors story
warrior should have started as a slave
>>717084096 (OP)I thought the completely different class stories and companions were really cool, I often wish they would make a non mmo game with a similar set up. Current bioware canโt even do dragon age origins style prologues.
>>717091623maybe but darth bara having warrior on a leash is a good setup. the warrior story is mostly shit and nonsense outside him though.
>>717091102The class stories are terrible and I wish they could be skipped more easily. I'd rather just do the planetary arcs and exploration missions.
>>717091743>class stories are terribleThey are without a doubt the best for a star wars mmorpg from 2010
>>717091743>I'd rather just do the planetary arcs and exploration missions.My man got the ADD
>>717091706warrior ending is probably the best ending in all of the class stories
great setup, great setting, great dialogue, great consequence/reward for beating him, etc. genuinely felt like i had power and was a true sith lord by the end of it.

>>717091928Then the expansion just shit on it
>>717091743>The class stories are terribleThis has consistently been the only thing the game has been praised for since inception.
>>717092047never touched them so i don't really care, but that sucks to hear.
>>717091928its basically the worst. you don't really earn the warrior ending, its not because you're strong. your mastermind-boss designated-betrays you because he gets weaker and more retarded and hires even weaker baby minions who never stand any sort of chance but are set up like maybe possibly they can slow you down? (they can't)
>>717087884>I miss the shitty leveling systemNo you don't. Nobody does.
>>717084364NGE after all the fixes was peak SWG
>>717092256That's a new level of contrarianism.
Its a cluttered, confusing mess, only ment for hardcore MMO simps. Has literally nothing to do with kotor
People using the sith inq story as an example that all class stories suck is unfair.
It's tge worst class story in the game by far.
Only one that comes close is smuggler.
>>717092543Nah the worst is tropper then bounty hunter then consular
Inq is top 3 with jedi knight and sith warrior
>>717092561But Iยดm still right
>>717092543If it's not a rep class story, it can't be the worst in the game.
>>717092379i can't even imagine how people can be so wrong about warrior. it's fucking awful.
>uhhhhhh actually the emperor said you're his main guy now>no just trust usit would be interesting if there was some actual dark council character introduced to prop your mission up instead of just being left alone rampaging for blatant lies reasons. or if baras had any power that wasn't fucking blackmailing ACTUALLY strong sith. like.... why? why is this supposed to make you feel stronger?
>>717092601Your opinions are shit and wrong.
>>717092812agreed, warriors story is confusing to say the least
>>717084096 (OP)I am perhaps even less interested in Broadsword's life support version than when Bioware was still trying to keep this going.
>>717091882I just think they're overwritten and clash with the rest of the game.
You could remove the class stories entirely, shuffle a few things around (remove intro cutscenes, give you your ship some other way, increase XP for planetary arcs), and the game would be fine.
The class story companions are also lame and pointless, but I guess that's a different topic.
explain to me why in swtor the empire is not = sith?
>>717092812also the new apprentice cyborg guy.
>baras put machines in me that make me a better murder-wizard than yousending fucking droids against the player is like...... level 10 chump miniboss fight tier. this shit is so badly written it feels like.... thematic. they were trying to teach the warrior a lesson about the true meaning of power and shit by giving you ONLY the worst examples to avoid becoming.
>>717093360sith race is mostly extinct, guess they liked the human pussy
>>717092365no it wasn't retard. SWG was just a chain of ruination
>the launch where ~60% of the classes didn't work ruined the game>the Jedi grind ruined the game>then the CU ruined the game>then the NGE ruined the gamePeak SWG was around JTL launch, the Jedi grind was already a significant drag at that point but JTL was the first part of that game that was actually good and mostly functional, and most of the classes worked to some degree by that point. I'm still fucking dumbfounded that they ALMOST had the game fixed with all classes working (though a lot of them sucked) around the time of the CU, then they utterly fucked themselves chasing the WoW audience.
Some of the devs coped by saying the game was dying and they had to do something but it's like, the game was dying because the Jedi grind was destroying the community and sending everyone into a macro frenzy to unlock it. Jedi never should have been an option, Jedi should have been a dev/GM role or something they rarely handed out to select roleplayers and kept it a complete mystery. Once people figured out the holocron shit all anyone ever did was grind classes which made everyone miserable chasing the Jedi slot.
>>717092812They're all awful because they all have shit like this
>ooooooooh you're the emperor's wrath>what does that mean? do i get a dark council seat and become a darth?>uhhhhhh idk but he's dead now LOL >nvm he betrayed us all with his super secret other empireIt amazes me that they went to the trouble and cost of writing/scripting/animating 8 different convoluted class stories with 48 voice actors across them when the majority of MMO players don't give a fuck
What an absolute waste of money
>>717084096 (OP)why? they've spent the past five years trickling the worst imaginable story content
even if they push another big story update after this strike bullshit it'll be more mandowank, who the hell cares
>>717084096 (OP)playing the agent story now after completing sith sorcerer and bounty hunter
made a death trooper transmog
>>717093865>mmo playersthey aren't selling the MMO, it's a single player game at its core. they spent the money 15 years ago and they're still milking it with zero effort to this day, so clearly not wasted at all.
>>717093865Anon sith warrior is one of the best stories in the game, dont be a contrarian for the sake of it
>>717093927What class did you choose for the agent anon
>>717084603>join Legends (NGE was what I played as a kid so it's nostalgia for me)>despite being named after Disney's gay name for the EU, they fill the server with disney droids and aliens and turn Captain Thrawn into Grand Admiral, edit his appearance to look like Disney Thrawnis nothing sacred?
>>717094414No i mean like class anon, abilities, which one
>>717093859Nice sideboob+pits
>>717094294idk anything about NGE, i only really played the demo of that? where they didnt let you off the newbie space station. This CU shit is infuriatingly unusable though, having two separate targets and they use different sets of abilities/hotkeys is fucking insane.
>>717084096 (OP)this game smells lgbt, dei, lesbian devs
>>717094542Ah, sweet, shame that there aren't any real ranged blaster classes enjoy anon
>>717094610jokes on you they havent had devs for over a decade
>>717094542operative is fun as fuck, i rolled a smuggler once upon a time and was really sad that the shotgun class was just a "5m-range-but-not-actually-melee-though" clone of it.
>>717094783I preferr the shotgun mirrored class honestly, the whole vibroblade this and that gets kinda lame for me at least
>>717084096 (OP)>Zoomzooms are now nostalgic for the era when Star Wars games became irredeemably badThe future is bleak
>>717094186That sounds like cope. They could be where FFXIV and ESO are now, if not better, if they had done things differently
It felt a bit meh after completing all stories. I mean the end game is what? Upgrade your gear to 344 and then wait 5 years for a new story update? PVP? Dead. Republic side? Dead.
>>717094986your first mmorpg ?
>>717094957if they had done things like a MMO maybe they could be a MMO instead of a single player game, yeah. its KOTOR but with both subscriptions and microtransactions at the same time.
Galaxies knew what really mattered was decorating your home and spaceships Sims style.
>>717084096 (OP)Can you still not sprint on free trial?
>>717094590Holy SHIT. Imagine the smell.
>>717095085the jetpack sprint thing is 2.5mil so you used to be able to get it with pref. you get mounts though.
>>717095085They changed that you can also lifted a bunch of sub only bonuses like companion customization, credits cap
>>717095016No but at least FFXIV and WoW has a lot more to offer. SWTOR is dead at end game
>>717095170>has a lot more to offer.lol'd
Two of the biggest waste of potentials was Consular and Inquisitor. Consular does what Inquisitor didn't do which is build a powerbase. Inquisitor is basically your guy constantly eats shit and is handed diamonds on a silver platter right after. No sith magic lore or anything. Consular I've warmed up to a lot the more I replayed it but it drops story beats each chapter. I really wish they didn't change writers each chapter in the class stories. Agent is the only story that holds up at all in quality.
>>717095224you can keep lol'ing at me but the republic side on EU is dead
>visit nar shadaa
>immediately want to replay jedi knight 2
i never felt really powerful in swtor honestly
even in lower level planets you get downscaled hard
>>717095260i really liked inq story but it's very inconsistent. i dont know what to feel about the cult story that dies as soon as its over but stealing the padawan and zash hijinks and nerd ass archaeology man are all fun individually but the class story ignores all of that.
>>717094986They used to have proper endgame before 4.0 where they pivoted back to catering to storyfags, which ruined everything
Now there's so little players left that they no longer make enough money to make new story content and couldn't even if they wanted to due to fag-aftra strikes LOL
The $5 budget only lets them pay an indian and an unpaid intern to come up with a new galactic season every 6 months and to ai generate new cash shop cosmetics based on (current star wars trend). That's your "endgame"
>>717095128i smell good ok
The worst thing is how they distributed skills during leveling.
>Star Wars Walking Sim/ Barbie in the Doll house edition
>Becomes increasingly more retarded after the Rise of the Hutt Cartel expansion
>Only kept alive thanks to whales that have been playing from day 1 and act like cultists urging you to subscribe to do "most of the fun shit".
>Dogshit PvP
>Dogshit Starfighter
>Strategies to make f2ps become paypigs is by annoying the shit out of you and telling you "all of your inconviniences might go away if you subscribe plus more better stories!"
>Those better stories are so dogshit the only conversation regarding them is talking about how they are becoming increasengly more dumb, convoluted, nothing ever has closure, and filled with plotholes.
>Galaxy of seasons adds nothing interesting after the 4th one, and it was already becoming dumb
>Everything its recycled assets since several years, especially the voice acting
>Performance is absolutely terrible, and keeps getting worse
>Devs literally made characters more uglier on pourpuse because apparently having a bunch of dolls with wrinkles its better than looking like dolls from 2010 with a bit of lighting
>There is an event where you get to a planet that says you need lvl 40 to play it, but when you arrive everything requires that you are lvl 70 to progress on anything. This is apparently a big, but nobody complains about it because you need to be subscribed to access customer support
And now they recently made it so that you can't get free cc from the security vendor unless i log in once a month.
If you can endure all the shit it throws at you, the free stuff is serviceble. But staying to long will make you realise how absolutely dogshit everything about this game is.
There is other free games out there that run better, are more fun, and actually have a minimal amount of respect to you instead of being this rotten carcass on life support that survives thanks to whales blood and cum and 10 year old spaghetti code.
Look for them. Find them. Don't play this.
>>717095931thats bad on purpose, they cluster them up near 60 so people will still be on new-power-rush when they have to cough up the cash.
>>717095728Sith girl stink in a good way. sniff sniff
>>717096064Yeah but still feels like shit having to play 50 levels with like 4 skills
>>717096358well thats why they give you a million XP boosters so you can slam into the XP cap asap
>>717093507I'm not reading your reply, I just know I'm right because I played through pre-CU, CU, launch-era NGE and late-stage NGE and then came back to SWGEMU and Legends
>>717093507PreCU+JTL is the goal. NGE without CU might even be fine if it's possible.
>>717084096 (OP)Only if they bring back Marr and make sith pureblood canon again.
Wasn't there a Star Wars Games General on /vg/? I'm not being coy, I just want to talk/read about Jedi Survivor and Outlaws and there seem to be literally no threads about either
Should I go Light Side Consular or Dark Side Trooper? I'm also thinking of going ambiguous/Dark Side smuggler for the Tyber Zann vibe, does that play well? I'm fine with going Han Solo if it doesn't. I've only completed Sith Warrior so far and got to Voss(?) with the Inquisitor and I want my next playthrough to be Republic so it doesn't feel like a slog when I have to go through Nar Shadaa and Balmorra again.

>>717096774light side consular is fine but you WILL be space jesus. dark side trooper's fun enough, DS smuggler = pirate king but it doesnt pay off in the story.

>doesn't pay off in the storySounds disheartening, is there good reactivity at least?
>>717096965I'll go with amused as my Sith Warrior was NOT a fun guy.

>>717092270>No you don't. Nobody does.I do, I sometimes go back and replay a new class but the combat is so fucking boring, there is literally zero chance of death. You can solo bosses with just auto-attack and not even drop below 75% HP

>>717097752All of them? I already said Inquisitor is the worst in the game, which it is.
with a few mods and configs, you can make the game like an action game, using Q/E and LMB/RMB for spells along with WASD for movement and mouse for turning at all times anyway
feels much better, recommend it to everyone

I'm playing Inquis but the writing/antagonist at the start is cringe, which Class + Side is best?
>>717092082damning with faint praise, there's maybe one and a half class stories that are actually worth playing, and the changes to the experience curve mean they're far more overbearing now than they were at launch.
>>717098287yeah but it's still a pretty shitty action game
>>717095151man they must be really circling the drain at this point if they're un-jewing the F2P
>>717098287>D4 UICome on anon....
>>717098287anyway uh i went sorcerer on my Inq because someone had to be my sorcerer. it's a perfectly fine class. I dont think LS/DS really even change much inquisitor-wise aside from your padawan who changes drastically but isn't affected by your personal alignment.
>>717095151>>717098482are they really even unjewing it? it was extra jewed when i played very recently, stealing your sub unlocks and credit cap even if you went preferred.
>>717098287absolutely wild they give you Force Storm that early now
>>717098746a large chunk of the power comes from combo shit up the tree, not sure if that's new or not I never played sith on my old account. It does feel extra retarded to see nubs fighting worm niggas on korriban with it.
Is it still getting updates? Bringing back all the VAs every time they add new story content doesn't seem sustainable
>>717098549remove nameplates
change hotkeys of - and = keybinds to Q and E, change strafe to A and D
lock camera speed
before activating mod with F10/f, always keep mouse in the middle of the screen so RMB will always loot/interact with whats in front of you
hide minimap
change L and RButton:: in the script in the linked mod to
LButton::
Send, {LButton}{9}
Return
RButton::
Send, {RButton}{0}
Return
and install the 2 linked mods and BOOM, it's ok but way better than before, like 10000 times.
>>717098742Yeah
F2P can now:
Get companion customisations, get access to legacy titles, earn rested EXP, gain first cargo bay for free, hide head slot and access to all quickbars.

>>717098926why do you think the "expansions" are like half an hour long with minimal story now
>>717099117oh, they are even bringing back the cargo bay and extra quickbars. i bet this is all stuff people stopped paying for. can wear gear up to level 80.... for some reason. looks good, still awful but better.
>>717098926Yes there has been a rather long VA strike which has now concluded so yeah
>>717084180Based. It was so much better than this mid, woke WoW-clone
>>717084096 (OP)This game is 14 years old and has absolutely nothing to offer in 2025 if you've already played at least one of the class storylines to completion.
>>717099610Its argueably better than wow nowadays
>>717099669Lets get one thing straight. WoW has NEVER been good. It was always boring dogshit that destroyed the MMO genre and killed off much better, more complex, and more interesting games like Star Wars Galaxies. No one fucking cares that this WoW clone that is 7 years newer is "better", when neither are good to begin with.

>>717098981holy shit you can hide headslots without subscribing now?
unironically a deal breaker
>>717100532Not yet but in the next update mid august yea
>>717100553i might actually try something other than jedi knight/sith warrior, maybe go space jesus like other people were talking about
i'm just worried that the force focused class is gonna have 0 shit to really do with the force
>>717098981Why did it take them so long to do this? Fucking faggots. I still think it's beyond ridiculous that they force you for so many years as ftp player to be stuck with the RETARDED head armors unless you subscribe. I had to waste CC on a holiday I was given to permanently unlock that.
>>717100632Wdym? Force class is THE class to play anon
>>717084096 (OP)I don't hate myself enough to do that.
