kind_Kyle: I do not find you negative. You give an honest and I say an accurate description of SWTOR. I am very much like you and I want gaming to be fun. I do not need, or want, a game that tells me how to think. Star Wars is about fantasy and adventure. Not about woke ideals that so few people, and even less players care about. You have an agenda you wish to champion, then go make your own game. You should not force your perspectives of life into games that many players have enjoyed playing for years. Just my humble opinion.
ignaciomacaya: I'm agree with you, if they don't listen to the players the game will close, they will be out of work. And you have the right to say what you think.
245896718A: Typical consolidationist rhetoric. Watcher Two, keep trying to find a source for the broadcast. Everyone else, start puling up our files on “the Boomy.”
russphilbrook9719: Im a swtor beta player and just got back into it after taking some time off. Its one of those games that i hope sticks around because it does have alot to offer content and lore wise.
matthewlance576: Can we not just have a great SWTOR game without all the BS? Been observing from the shadows for years and I’m about tired of all this infighting within the game’s community! Well said Boomy, keep up the good work! * returns to the shadows*
rheahinshaw7471: Well said! May the Beard be with you!
swcentral: Always stick to your guns and principles
Plags-rj4iy: We need a roadmap for what we can expect in SWTOR this year, not just hoping and being disappointed with every patch.
kayber76nerdculture: You know I commented on their post and didn't even realize they were talking about you I listen to you and I think you're legit and real and it's never occurred to me that you were negative lol. I did recommend ootinicast though and then later on that day I thought about recommending you. maybe its good that i didn't lol
mcgruff7355: Agreed sir
abmong: So your beard is actually grey, the ginger is just whisky stains
CommissarInbram: HAHA I read that! So much nonsense, anyone that brought up issues was told to 'go have a good look at themselves'. Jesus, the copium is insane
Darthpicklelord: Omg those reddit Bros! I saw some of swtorista cult members on there too
pdhywrd: I am just a Gen X (1965), mixed race (I am not black, a POC or white - I am somewhere along the brown/beige scale like everyone is) and female and I absolutely hate the recent emphasis on DEI etc leaking into the games development etc. If I wanted a game where I can go on date nights etc then I would be playing something like SIMS not SWTOR. I want to kill stuff with various weapons and fly space missions. I want to go adventuring, loot corpses and bully people...all of the stuff I cannot do IRL. If I wanted to flirt I would play my smuggler more often or even interact IRL with my husband. I also don't do role-play although I have no problem with those who do. The game already has enough DEI built into it as you can have a choice of which species to play, what sex you want to be (yes it's a binary choice but that is sex not gender), how you want to look etc. You can even make choices about who you want to flirt with. So what is the issue? If I want to make more 'conservative' choices when I play how does that affect anyone else as I rarely interact with other players apart from my family members who already know what I am like and are fine with that. I don't have a problem with female game developers providing they don't push their politics/lifestyle into the game, just the same as I wouldn't want male game developers to do. The choices the players make are their own as they are paying for the privilege. Swtor is not meant to be all things for all people or even promote 21st century US cultural norms. It meant to be in a galaxy far, far away! Likewise content creators have every right to express THEIR opinions on THEIR channels. The 'be kind' mob are some of the most intolerant people around from my experience
falmatrix2r: Being named on Reddit is actually a seal of approval
filidhdeklend893: I'm tired of my entertainment being created to push a religious cult's ideology. Just because their cult is boiled down to "anti-mythology(mostly Abrahamic)" doesn't make it any less of a religious cult.
CBSYS: I 100% agree
kal0247: That's why we love you, Boomy,you don't bend the knee. You call it like it is
DeltaDragon79: I will always find someone who is honest more helpful and trustworthy than someone who is positive for the sake of being positive. As much as toxic negativity is whined about, toxic positivity is much worse to me.
Sashman1234: The only negative content I see is the lack of content at all that Broadsword gives us. And the big question is: When the next story update hits... will it be over in 2 hours again? And how long will they ride that Hidden Chain storyline? And how long do we have to wait? Youtubers don't hurt the community. Broadsword is dismanteling SWTOR just good without its fans.
Xamael666: Keep speaking truth to power, Boomy! I wish u would be more critical though
MiśBrzusio: I always viewed you as a blind swtor fanboy
princehadesplayz9160: lol they got some nerve saying BS about not listening to the player fan base when they are literally banning players for making suggestions to the game and wanting to see the game so better. like tf is wrong with you Swtor?. Swtor is doing this because they are upset that players that they DO NOT LISTEN TO IN THE SLIGHTEST are finally calling them out on their BS. I mean come on devs. At the end of the day we are all human and we ALL have limits. You pushed the players and fanbase of Swtor and Star Wars in general into a corner and now we all are fighting back. Ever heard the saying a cornered animal is a very dangerous animal?. That’s because they are left with nothing else to do but to fight. In this case player fighting is speaking up and telling you how wrong ya are.
And ya know for anyone that is wondering. Boomy is always honest and an awesome guy. I think of him as a friend and I can relate to with a lot of what he says. I’ve been subbed to the channel for about maybe a little more than a couple years and can honestly say Boomy is always truthful and a very nice guy. Not to mention he actually listens, reads and sometimes even replies to his fans. Something Swtor may have done in the past but completely did a 180 degree turn and and started banning or silencing players including their own veteran players who supported e game from day one. Sad sight to see Swtor.
bankroll4416: played since leveling was a f***ing nightmare and witnessed the greatness of Bioware through the Vitiate Eternal arc afterwards. I'm very disappointed at the current state of the game. I still come back occasionally and reminisce over what was. Them removing ranked PvP at the time they did is what killed it for me.
Idk if it's back now. Last I played, max GS was 306 and if you were 306 with the correct enhancements and modifications, you were essentially a monster. The amount of morons stepping into ranked without a proper build was astounding.
PLUS OG community was goated. New community all has purple hair. OG were the Star Wars nerds. I'm talking about the REAL OGs. This includes everyone who was there for the Vitiate DLCs too.
New community is lame. Sorry if ur a PVEr, I cannot respect because that is weak. A sith fights for honor, power, respect. You have no honor if you don't pvp.
After story go do f***ing hammer station for 30 runs hit max and go fight some ppl for crying out loud let's have f***ing planetary warfare! I WANT PLANETARY BEEF BETWEEN SITH AND JEDI AGAIN THAT WAS SUCH A GOOD TIME.
SpectreGaming275: I was a hard-core player from early release all the way through the Hutt cartel. I am like you, I don't sugar coat things and when you polish a turd it's still a turd.
When the game started swirling in the toilet bowl and then got subjectively worse over time... I left the game. And I have returned time and again. I am in the military and agree with everything you say.
I keep everything
