I hate spawn camping so I hope the quests avoid this.
Making the whole thing instanced and at least 90% soloable with GOOD stories would make for a FUN experience.
Im a bit concerned as I figure the more SP I use for Force Sensitive skills the weaker my Template will get not stronger, and It would be a pain to have to grind a template for completing the Padawan trial’s and be locked as a jedi with normal skills that are now useless for being a jedi.

I love the idea of the village. Also love that grinding will no longer be a part of the process. Others have said it, but I'll mention it as well, really don't want to see the village turn into a camped outarea with tons of people running all over and people yelling about how to do this or that. It should be like the corvette so you feel like you're the only person there going through this.

Sounds great so far, keep up the good work. Please no camping though, I know it supposedly makes things harder but in reality it makes them more boring.

I have been disturbed for some time as to the amount of effort SOE have placed in their application of mods for Jedi and force users in this game. There's two major publishes mostly based on Jedi and force application, which to seems to be a tremendous waste and not much use to the majority of the gamers out there. I don't know what the percentage of force aware characters are as compared with normal schlubs, but I guess it's something like 1% at present.
This minority is taking away precious developer time for the rest of us, unless all that there is in this game is to become a Jedi, then I suppose I'm off track.
This village is contrary to the timeline, and the idea that force characters need a place to be normal is absurd. If they want a normal character to play they can always use another template.
Finally, the Empire would find this village and probably bomb it from orbit, or take out the whole planet - just to be sure. So please, can someone from SOE actually have an open dialogue from someone at Lucas that actually knows how to make this experience more Star Wars and less abstract 12 year old art project? PLEASE?
thanks
