I am definately not a Fanboi, and in the past two years I have made my fair share of posts that reflect a negative tone. But I wish that some of the posts that spoke of the changes to AI and FR would have also pointed out that while many skills and professions are being looked at, these things are still in testing.
The devs have put in a ton of work to revamp the Squad Leader profession, Commando is having some pretty big changes, Ranger is slated for a revamp, Smuggler has their revamp "In Concept", and as a result many of the games "core systems" such as movement and stealth need to be streamlined.
We don't know what the final structure of these changes will be, (that is true for both Jedi and non jedi skills), and there is nothing to say that we won't have our own "mini revamp" as well. Wait until all of the testing is completed, wait until all of the loot combinations for the cube are known, in other words wait until we can look at the whole picture.
On a positive note there are several things in this expansion that we have asked for. I am not sure how to interpret the "NDA lifted" post by TH so I am not going to ellaborate at this time, but believe me they are there.
On top of that this expansion is full of high end quests with better dialogue and story lines than I have ever seen in any video game. Mustafar is an adventure planet full of challenge, set in a lanscape with amazing visual effects unlike any planet we currently have.
I am really looking forward to playing out there with my friends.
Hang in there.

I do not believe that is the intent.
Based on my interpretation of the NDA, I am prevented from making a direct quote regarding a thread I read today. But I believe I am allowed to relay the tone.
A tester posted that he did not feel that Jedi should be any more powerful than a normal profession.
A red named respondent told him that he disagreed, as long as there were consequences for that strength.
Take it for what it is worth.

You will enjoy this planet, believe me.
As for BH having it easier, well in many regards so do we. We may lose to them more now than before, but we can make back those losses much faster as well.

unfortionatly for you the whinners on these forums have had most of the risk removed so that means you no longer deserve the power that a jedi should have.

It means we longer deserve the power we "once had", (which is debatable if you were a Powers Jedi like me).
What it also implies (to me at least) is that the FRS will carry risk, and for those who do not like pvp they should avoid it.
One thing to consider is that past reductions in power have also affected the player bounty system. Reductions in Jedi strength, combined with BH circumventing the intent of the 1v1 mission system may lead to further nerfs in their mini game.
