So in light of last weeks events, I sent my Starsider Smuggler back to the digital hell that spawned him and sought to relax playing a different style toon for a bit. Started up a newbie Entertainer (one of the few profs I've never really tried in the past 2 years) and started doing the intro quests around Mos Eisley.

During the Entertainer quest, I had to preform at some seedy criminal party and gather info on events going on around town. It seems there's a new spice in town and I grabbed a screenshot of the NPC dialogue because of the use of one single word. It's even in quotations.

Is this a subtle dig at us from the Devs? Now, maybe it's because I've been a Smuggler for so long, or maybe I'm just sensitive about this certain word, but not only did I feel insulted, but I have a feeling that Mos Eisley is going to be spice free for quite some time.

Hello, I must be going. I cannot stay, I came to say I must be going. I'm glad I came but just the same I must be going.

Theed was a bustling commerce city...people hawked their wares, danced, laughed, dueled, and had a rollicking good time. Cantinas packed with Entertainers of every race, shape and size...along with scoundrels, Stormtroopers, and drunks. People grouped up and stuck together in the wilderness, and you ALWAYS took a Scout or a Ranger with you. We lived our own Star Wars saga. We created our own personas, our own histories, and it all blended into this wonderful, magical experience that I will always remember...

That magic is gone now, but I'd pay 50 bucks a month to have it back.

Editor's Note: The author of the above post has quit giving SOE her money. She suggests you do the same, because this game will never be what you want it to be.

Doesn't EVE online hold the trademark on Soon? Don't they sell T-shirts emblazoned with Soon (tm)?
