    If your still undecided about TOR, this video might help you make up your mind about the game:

    9 and 6 would be 1 and 2 on my list of why it's going to suck, to be honest. Post EA takeover, Bioware games have been really hit and miss, and the Texas studio in particular hasn't done anything outstanding. And tanking in PvP is just stupid.

    I saw the first reason. After that I got sick of the narrator so I stopped watching. WTB Morgan Freeman.

    The list is laughable. Crew Skills? Who the hell is playing because of that? If that is all they see Star Wars offering then it will fail faster that you can say Jedi. I also laughed because some of the things they stated were just wrong and false.

    Meh, #9 isn't a reason to play, it is just a turn off to think about what else is out there and some MMO competition. A group making the best game they can is more appealing then "our aim is to beat X." Usually such goals are a hindrance to the game.
    Also 1 and 10 are the same points. So it is OK as a Top8.
    anyone who hates crafting? I don't have a dislike of crafting, but I can see anyone who does being excited by this system after seeing it in action. This is easily something that could become a new standard, even if it is something as seemingly unimportant as crafting.

    What did you consider false information in the video because I didn't see it.

    NDA. Also, they gather for you. Not craft. It's ok, but I don't think anyone would play the game for that reason. I never craft in any game. I don't plan to start in Star Wars either.

    Actually they do craft for you but I don't know how much further I can say about that here. Were you saying "NDA" because you can't say what the video is lying/false about? Because I couldn't find anything and I am curious as to what you mean if you want to PM me.

    I am not going to go into detail. I will just say that I found some of their statements very sugar coated and very false and it was clear they did not make it to max level.

    I liked no auto-attack, 8 days played to hit lvl 50, how each planet is the size of 8 wow zones (or bigger then each exapansion) and theres 17 worlds to start
