I agree. I mean, I won't hide it. I have never hid it. I don't like the fact Jedi are even in this game. I don't mind people who grind to Jedi as long as they're cool about it [people like Halyn], however...it is just a feature I don't think the game needed. Jedi don't define Starwars..Han Solo does ...or maybe Boba Fett. No wait, obvious winner. The Sarlacc.


I hope there is more to it. I really do, but aye I won't be holding my breath either.

I've tried to keep it somewhat on the DL, but I find the number of jedi in this game rather inappropriate. Particularly after it was announced that there will no longer be profession-specific revamps because they can't justify spending that much dev time on one single group of players, I find it highly cynical that the next expansion is indirectly if not completely directed at Jedi alone.

And it's not our fault - it's just your own new suicide.

I think 'Force sensitive' should have been the very limit you could reach in this game. Jedi to me..are the core characters. Beings which are directly linked to canon which aren't us.

What they haven't said in the press release is that every high-level Jedi quest reward item is an uber space component. Yeah, wouldn't that just be wonderful!

Yup a component that those jedi would then be ignorantly selling at their local chassis dealer for 2k

Well there's not much I want at lvl 2, unless it's a crazy good cap maybe.

To what end? I've got more pride in myself than to beg my friends to lead me through quests. I'll help them (IF I get the expansion) do their own quests, and if we can do the quest for me at the same time, great, but I refuse to expect anyone else to do something for me. The sidekick system is a slap in the face to everyone who has any sort of sense of accomplishment on their own.





Yes I agree. I was just kidding. I am not going to buy the expansion anyway.
