I'll buy it cuz I have to collect all the dances... I'm dumb like that but it seems kinda .... pfffft. lol I never got that wookiee thing. Friends told me it was really just combat stuff so I've never been to the amazing wookiee world. I almost got it just so I run around and pet everything.
The only nice thing about it for entertainersis the outdoor cantina, which could be a great venue
for hosting events. And yes, you can give inspiration buffs there.
outdoor cantina you say. That's a fantastic spot for events.... very cool
If Dancers get new dance props, then Musicians should get a new instrument. Instruments are our "props" after all.
Alternatively, a microphone or speaker prop that can be dropped a la the Nalargon would work, too.
And what's up with Image Designers? They get nothing for their $30 expansion?
I dunno....first of all, $30 is a lot just for a download. The Total Experience cost $30, and that was for the base game, jump to lightspeed, AND the new Rage of the Wookiees expansion.
If just the Trials of Obi-Wan expansion is costing $30 and is strictly a download, this better be one GIGANTIC expansion, and if there isn't even a space zone, I don't see the justification for it. The pricing is wrong, in my opinion.
And the content for us doesn't really seem to warrant paying that much for it. New stuff is awesome, but not one new song for $30. And 3 vehicle slots that we should've had added months ago anyways (BARC added, V-35 added, XP-38 added, AB-1 added, AV-21 added, Jetpack added, and NOW they're adding more vehicle slots and charging us for it? Pretty slick for them...)

I don't want to miss this dance, but I don't want to buy ToOW twice right now…
Do you want to pay $30 (REAL MONEY, by the way, not credits) for a single dance and prop?
I don't think it's worth it.

At this point I am inclined to agree.
Much will depend on the manner in which you get these things. If it's one of the Kashyyyk style quests where you have to travel to different planets, kill things, and do space missions in order to get it, I won't even consider trying it. Even if it's just going and doing more Theater-quest style quests, ugh, I hated those. And beyond that, after I get the 2 schematics for the new song and dance (I couldn't care less about the props to be honest), will I ever have a reason to return to Mustafar? If not, then I am paying money for an in-game item (a schematic), and I'm not sure that makes a lot of sense.

TOOT TOOT- That's the sound of the SOE boatsailing and missing the entertainment community.
Uh, oh, look on the dock, that's the entertainment community that didn't hold a ticket to get on the boat to begin with!
How SOE boat left us- An absolutley brillant concept of entertainers in their SWG game. Wow, it was so fresh so much interaction with other players geeze, there's social interaction. But, that was two years ago. Now, a days, the twitch and I want it NOW community demand no down time. So, SOE accomdates them by virtually eliminating the need for entertainers in the game. Basically, instead of devising a way to where entertainers would interact with the entire community in a fun way for the want it now crowd, they destoryed the very concept of entertainers in the game. They replace the basic concept of player interaction with, props, dances, music, and maybe a NPC mission or two. HEY, the entertainers want player interaction FACILITATED by the game. With no need for that interaction, we are rendered superfilious to game play and basically have the same game play function as cheerleaders for a football game. We used to be on the field, but now we are on the sidelines, cheering our little heads off at a game that has no fans present. Props, dances, and music do not equate to game play interface and new prop's, dances, and music while quailfying for a wide use of the term content; they truly don't cut the mustard on what the issue is with entertainers.

Masochist?
I don't see the point in buying it if not.
What can I say I ambut a pawn of wealthyCapatialists.
Er, would you believe I may be a dancer, but I do more in game than dance.
Ok, I'll stay with a pawn of captialists.
I want depth to gameplay for all professions.
I want a freakin' GCW, the reason most players originally bought this game.
I don't want more decorative goodies and short, unimportant, stand-alone quests.
