I have nothing with MMORPGs but I am a big Star Wars fan and this looks awesome.
But I can't get over the fact that the new (as in: from the recent trilogy) laser sounds are so weak. There's no power in them whatsoever.
Plus, I still have to get used to the whole 3000 year old Old Republic. It simply doesn't feel 3000 years old. I mean, if you compare our world now to the human world 3000 years ago, it looks a hell of a lot different. The old republic doesn't really feel that well thought out, design-wise. It looks like they have been standing still on the technological front, for 3000 years. They basically have the same stuff Luke and his buddies had (lightsabers, lasers, hyperdrive capability, droids, etc.), and it hardly looks older. Okay, I'm basing this on my experiences with Knight Of The Old Republic 1 & 2 (great geames nonetheless!), and maybe this game isn't set exactly around that time, but still...
Sorry, I can get a bit ranty when it comes to my favorite galaxy far far away.... ;-)
