Thread: To all those who think 2nd toon for everyone is the right thing...
Had jedi not been nerfed to generic, and the NGE not been released, the 2 characters per server would be a great idea. Given the effort put into jedi, and the resulting destruction of everything that was jedi, you can understand the disappointment. As a pre-pub9 jedi (and one who did not exploitn or macro a single point of xp) the effort I put into jedi is now worth nothing. No skills, no character bonus, no nothing. You need to remember that not everyone is a respec jedi. I for one got jedi when in meant something. Spare me the BS of other professions costing even 10% of the xp jedi did, it just is not true. Especiall y since I have played every one pre and post CU.
It was suppose to be the end game, now it is the starting point. There is just no excuse for how jedi has been handled in SWG, especially now. That a few started out and succeeded in achieving jedi by the game rules set up by the development team was fantastic. Then people complained it ws too hard and boring, did not want the effort, thus the village. The village proved challenging, people complained about he power of the jedi, they wanted it too, though they were not willing to work at it, they just wanted the power. So we get the new FS in the NGE. A BS excuse to give everyone a shot with no effort.
Problem is, there are a lot of people who put in the effort. To them SOE is laughing and saying "Thanks for your money, we do not respect your efforts or your game loyalty."
We tried to hold out hope, and convince ourselves that the 3, 6, 9 month grind and the constant griefing by the wanna be, but not work for it peeps,was worth it. The ability to be jedi meant something to us all, so we did it, maybe for power, maybe for the honor. For me it was the honor, the holy grail so to speak. Since that was taken away by over 12 nerfs and this new NGE, and now the second character slot is for everyone, what is left but feeling like I got screwed coming and going???
