Those that say there's nothing to do may be bored with the typical MMO crud, and want Star Wars, not a giant, empty, mmo that looks like star wars. I also would point out that the planets feel empty, and that players in a given area seem at an all-time low. Notice that the last two major content additions are combat scenarios. While crafter's do get a few new loot-based schematics to produce stupidly expensive items, overall this game is focused on hunting and killing. PvP is of course left out of this focus as it's become nothing more than a numbers/macro game currently. Hopefully publish 9-12 will show us what game was intended to be shipped. Jump to Lightspeed will hopefully bring new blood to the game as the whole world seems to be frozen in a "Just wait till you play JtL and we have the new Jedi setup" dev promise.

Great show TH! Makes me miss my beta 3 days and the bleeding bug as well 
. I remember hunting outside Mos Entha (which was a thenVERY populated city) and every worrt would make me bleed, id die and I'd have to find a medic to heal me which were scarce in those days. Ah the old days.

Ah the old days. Perhaps I'll get out of the cantina sometime and go exploring again, I dont think I've left Tatooine in months. I think later this week I may return to Naboo and Yavin just for the scenery 
Great times. (If anyone is interested in joining me, toss me a pm).

Thunderheart, I was going to leave because I was getting sick of all the perceived crap in this game. Looking through that reminded me what made me fall in love with SWG in the first place.
Thank you.
Thank you.
