Thread: If SWG was sci fi but not Star Wars, would you be playing right now?
No.
Not because I wouldn't play a Sci-Fi game, but because the game is getting worse by the day due to poor programming, lack of fixes & horrible communication from SOE.
I would have never even started playing.
SWG was my first MMORPG. And I ONLY started playing it because it was a StarWars game.
Now, if they took all the starwars out of it, I may very well still play, but ony because I have so many friends here and I have accomplished so much.

This is a serious question, how much of this game utterly relies on the Star Wars name and not on actual playability, and content?
Just a poll, let's say this was a game with an alpha class (like Jedi) very similar, still sci fi ish, the cities and game play and crafting the same. Except every Star Wars reference and character replaced with non Star Wars.
I know I wouldn't have stayed this long, and the sad thing is even what little Star Wars feel is left is barely keeping me here since I have nothing to do in game.

A big, resounding, NO!

That's part of the reason that the game is so shotty, it can be cause the Star Wars name will keep a bunch of us. I've thought to myself hundreds of times that I wished LucasArts hadn't given the contract to Sony.
If there's ever an SWG 2, cross your fingers that it goes to Turbine, lol.
If I had known two years ago this would be the result of the game I would never have started and had my heart broke. Now I don't trust SOE as a whole and quite frankly would discourage anyone from trying their products. They even make LA look bad. This game now is not the reason I bought my other accounts.
That being said had not the CU hit the fanI would probably still have all my account active instead of canceled. So
Now? No, not even if I won the game as a reward.
Pre CU. Yes probably have at least two accounts active.
However, I earnestly hope that SOE has NOTHING to do with SWG2...
