texasrick7327: My dream is that one day a team of talented people could make some "Classic " server for SWTOR that follows on from vanilla, ROTHC, or SOR. Its very unlikely but it would be awesome to see some form of continuation to the original vision of the game, similar to what some WoW servers do. The current game is just too far gone.
SWCentral: Noble crushing it with another SWTOR vid
anr1593: Great game. It arguably created the greatest cinematic trailers for star wars ever.
contagiouspenguin9849: One of my fondest open world PVP moments was leveling up a character on tatooine and being ganked by a high leveled character, then summoning my guildmates to protect me while i did the missions, only to start a massive war between factions with each taking turns in spawn camping the speeder bike stations. Recently i was leveling up a character on tatooine and found myself missing the fear that came with wandering the dune sea, always keeping an eye out for high level pvp'ers trying to gank and avoiding them, now a days its just a big open area where nothing happens coz everyone is forced to be the same level
gehtoodachoppa8603: It took around 100 hours to hit level 50 at launch and you had to do every single faction and planet quest along with the main story, and grind flashpoints a bit on top of that to make up the gap.
I signed up for a prelaunch guild, played in early access, and everything. It was so hype, and then crashed so hard. From 200 servers on launch day down to just two today (do they still even have two in NA these days?) Rerolled to Harbinger around a month in when my launch server became a ghost town. This was long before cross-server queues --- it took six months after launch to even add a group finder at all, lol.
When they ran the extended 12x XP event one summer (yes, a literal 1200% multiplier) I was so thrilled that I deleted my entire legacy and rerolled 16 characters, eight on each side, just to play through every story again. (This was back when you had to commit to an advanced class at level 10 so you needed twice as many at max level to cover every AC on both sides.)
Then there was the time I decided to level a new Vanguard tank by chain running random flashpoints skipping quests until max level. Had the longest friends list in any game ever by the time I was done.
Good times. The best really. There is nothing else quite like this game before or since. It's sad to think that we probably will never see anything like it again in our lifetimes.
synic6996: The Gree Event part hit hard… I remember being so hyped to PvP all night with my guild (alpha company at the time)
santanikx9: im still sad that there is no private server scene about that game
Oppetsismiimsitsitc: Star Wars Galaxies was a far better MMORPG, and it couldn't be more different from SWTOR.
ImotekhtheStormlord-tx2it: SWTOR is to this day one of the most overlooked mmorpgs ever. it has better strony than wow post-pandaria and guild wars 2. its basically KOTOR 1 but mmo. one of the last biowares best narrative games
gehtoodachoppa8603: Played this game so much for two years after launch and it was honestly the last thing to happen with MMOs that I was seriously hyped for. Nothing matches vanilla SWTOR for sheer narrative sci fi fantasy RPG goodness. It had its flaws and they were many but getting Legendary and Living Legend back in the day still is hands down the peak of MMO gaming for me.
