I love both Ideas.
One thing I do have a consern about is alot of people Talking, not really alot of people doing the quests. So, maybe if it is not an instanced thing, could you disable Spatial chatting while in the Village?

1...nno
2...yes
there are a light and dark jedi on dantooine at the temple ruins....i think that they should be used for these FS quests and as such be the traiiners for which all jedi come.
just a thoung . i do like the quest log idea. easier to keep track of what youve done and need to do.

I disagree with that totaly.Seems to me everyone that has already unlocked to become a Jedi,does not want other players to have the Honor of becoming a Jedi.The way i see it is everyone here pays to playthis game,and to make certain things like becoming Force Sensative a VERY long and grusome process,takes the fun away from it,and in turn..you go from holo grinding to quest grinding which is just as boring.So i ask the developers,if you want to truly make this system to where not everyone in there mother can become a Jedi right off the bat,you might need to make sure an account is of an certain age,and i say that because they should have to take some time to experince being a normal person like we all were at some point.If you make a quest system and its so unknown you have no idea where to go or what to do..or you got to relie on doing a certain number of things to trigger this mysterious character,Most will just get discouraged and others who have holograinded a buttload of professions,will probably just cancel there accounts and move on because of the let down.If you truly wanna do this right,IMHO,you should have this mysterious character appear after you have done the following,or met the following ...
1:Account is of a certain age((maybe like 4 to 6 months old to give them time to see the game,experince it from a normal side of thingsand maybe contribute to the economy a little))
2:Mark of the Hero Quest((why not use that as the steping stone..its a hard to do quest,and alot of people have givin up on it,but its not impossible..just takes patience,which is a jedi trait anyways..it would prob help you all by using exsisting content anyways.
3.have used up all your skill points at one time or another((meaning you have at one time had 3 professions mastered with one being an advanced one like weaponsmithy/teras kasi/BH/Master pistoleer..ect.I don,t want it to be a skill grind again..but i figure by the time you have reached 4 to 6 months old..you could reach this just by playing and having fun.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I know some of you may disagree with this..but i seriously think maybe alot of this should be a time based thing.theres nothing worse then seeing some guy weilding a lightsaber and has only played for a few months,when alot of us have been here since release,and have just played the game for what it was instead of grinding profession after profession((but to clear that up..my chr has mastered like 8 to 9 professions so i have experimented with diffrent classes to find the right playing style for myself.Plus after awhile..old time players have usally done it all,and there starting to get bored,what better way to keep exsisting players then to have something like a stranger approuch them to offer the information of the village..thus having there chr realise there dream of having the oppertunity at last..train in the ways of the force.You at SOE want to keep everyone in there mother from being a Jedi..this is the way to do it..theres alot of new players..and some of us odlies have stuck it out through the bugs and among other things..this would keep it down to a minimum..while offering everyone a chance to become Jedi that stick the game out and just play itlike it was ment to be played((exporing,socializing,adventure,hunts and pvp as well)) thats my 2 cents worth peeps..Have a Nice day

Great idea! but i hope the way to the viliage doesnt involve anything already in the game like static npc's. I have already done missions for a Ebenn "Q3" Baobab and it ended up he was a jedi. So i hope those missions that lead to a stranger greeting us arent already in the game.

A1. Yes it gives Star Wars fans an idea of how all these foce users made it through the hunts of Darth Vader to kill all the Jedis.
A2. Quest journal for keep track sounds great.
Jo-vian Solaris = Elder Jedi (90) - Elder MBH/MSmugr/MComdo - Elder WS
Celax Solaris = Pre-NGE BH (88)
Dre'wan Solaris = Commando (15)
Tohn'nay Solaris = Medic (42)
Elextra Solaris = Elder Merchant/Structures Trader

whoa....
1. WOW
2. It'll help with everything
GREAT idea TH. The idea of being approached by a stranger will probably be based on "something" which i have heard of (meaning don't take my word for it) so the village won't be too camped as long as the devs make sure that they make that stranger have few and far between journeys. hint hint.
Great work!

•Do you like the idea of the Village of Aurilia?
Yes, I really like this idea of the village....and it would be even better if it was instanced so that people who love to spam whats in their vendor at the starports wont be able to ruin your own jedi building star warsy character and feel to the game by spamming up the village. i hope this is a instanced place so that i can feel that i am the only jedi in training...unlike everywhere else that u go u can see jedi running around...however if i choose to make a jedi character i would like to roleplay and visit this place on my own.without people ruining my fun by spam, and being carelessness about the star wars feel and sense to the game that some people want.
please be instanced. i really dont want "iam-uber-l33t theman" spamming whats in his vendor while im trying to enjoy building and role playing my jedi character.
•Do you like the idea of adding a quest journal?
Yes, I realy do think this idea is pretty cool.
