>>3695636>>3695636I unironically would like that.I tried playing it recently, and the combat is fucking braindead, which seemed to not be the case at launch. Surely they did this to appeal to the f2p crowd. Buttons just kill everything, no thought put into which abilities are used, or having to coordinate with your companion. I never played Star Wars Galaxy. Was that of any merit.
>>3695664My first character at launch was an Operative, which ended up being an awesome first character choice. I played healer and yeah for the most part I relied on my companion to tank for me. There was a lot of abolity cycling, so definitely not ez mode. I died quote often.
>>3695689I've actually only played Imperial Agent, and a desire to see the entirety of that class story is the main thing making me want to play it. The combat is very off-putting though.Are any of the other class stories any decent?
>>3695763I enjoyed playing as Inquisitor but that was the only storyline I did, so I can't compare it to IA.
>>3695636Vette best girl>>3695664They started simplifying everything with KOTFE/KOTET. After that every time I'd jump back in every X months things would be more and more braindead. Playing through the vanilla Lv. 50 stories back in like 2013/4 as a F2P player was fun as fuck and part of it was because of how hard some areas would be
>>3695763Light Side Sith Warrior doesn't have any right to be as good as it is
I wish Inquisitor was written better lol. Consular does what Inquisitor was supposed to do. Build a power base. Inquisitor is just your guy stumbling through a dark room taking meaty hits from random people in the face while he gets paid 1mil each hit. Shit just happens to him. It upsets me cause I really really like the male inquisitors voice. The class with the most wasted potential.
>>3695636>I never played Star Wars GalaxyYou missed out. Star Wars Galaxies was the most based RPG ever created towards her launch, 100 times better than Kotor 3 online. You didn't even have to play as a combat profession if you didn't want to, you just play as an average citizen in Star Wars essentially was the point of the game. You could be a farmer, a politician, an architect, armorsmith, droid engineer, musician, bio engineer, a merchant, doctor, scout, weaponsmith, dancer, pilot, smuggler, a chef, fucking wild space was the limit!
>>3695664oh crap, I replied to the wrong anon. that >>3695845 was for yousa
>>3695763Bounty Hunter, Sith Warrior, Sith InqusitorJedi Consul was shit but I played it as dark side and had a lot of fun at the game's expense.
Light side bounty hunter is extremely vanilla and wholesome.
I think the only thing keeping this game alive are whales. Every new update is mainly about cosmetics. Anyway, the amount of hours I put into this game is more than I want to admit. Was going to make a casual video review of it, but I only made a thoughts on and never made a followup.I honestly do not recommend playing it. There is some great writing here and there, but it's not worth it. Outside of the high level raids/pvp/dungeons, the combat is mindlessly activating your abilities. There's also a lot of bloat in the abilities. Jedi Knight is so bland and the powerscaling in that story is so extreme, it's hard to take it seriously because you know they're not going to go through with it. Plus, outside of all the companions, Kira Carson seems like she had the most effort put into her. Imperial agent has the best story. Sith warrior has a really good subversion that has no right to be in this kind of game. Basically, your character is everything wrong with the sith, and your rival is someone that had to fight for their spot. Consular is okay. Smuggler and bounty hunter have a lot of fun scenes.The saddest thing is that TOR could have been one of the best Star Wars games ever made if EA wasn't retardedly greedy. All they had to do was make a modified version of Jedi Academy where every class had a set of abilities they could activate. They could have beaten Destiny as well by being one of the first, big Western hybrid-mmos since action combat would be easier for consoles than MMO style combat.TL;DR: play Guild Wars 2 instead. FF14 if you want erp.
>>3695763>Are any of the other class stories any decent?Imho, light side Sith Warrior chapter one has the best and most impactful arc of the entire game. It also feels the most "Star Warsy" as it focuses on the whole force and apprentice thing. Chapter two and three are meh, but still more fun than the rest as a light side troll.
>>3695636fuck is wrong with you people who think its good
>>3695636I had the genuine fun in this game and it's still worth playing for it's perks. Even the worst stories are (largely) better than anything non-book that was released in the last 10 yearsmusic is thematiccommunity is still there and helps noobsvoice acting is phenomenalromance with shapely women and chiseled mencombat does feel like a wow clone, fortunately I haven't played WoW since BfA so I largely forgot>utterly destroyed economy, cannot afford much without spending IRL money>Jedi Consular, Trooper and Bounty Hunter stories feel like a huge drag for some>recent content shit and incredibly shit>no true updates in 2 years>lore retcons for KOTOR for those who give a fuck>EAI'd love an offline version of this, rn it's still profitable enough to stay afloat but Bioware is gone>UAAAAGHEAAGHHH, I CANNOT BREAK HIM!Game really worth playing for the sith warrior story
>>3695636>lanathat's Emo "Anal-anytime" Jaessa and it's the true prize for a DS Warrior, well that and shocking Vette>that resounding butthurt for years in a row that you could torture a companion as an evil toon>>3695763Warrior, especially Light Side Warrior male is enough to justify trying this game AT ALL. Flabbergast most foes and even some allies with how pragmatic you are. Jump combat, force-push and tanky or limited stealth and dps cannon. Fuck a milf, fuck a barely-legal teen (same VA as Mission), fuck her sister (if you want).Imperial Agent is close second, 5 endings depending on big story branches like doing a 9/11 on the Sith Capital. Have sex on every planet. Femspy is high society english.Inquisitor, especally Femquisitor is rags-to-riches story, You may act very unhinged and get funny and appropriate reactions. Ghostbusters story is interesting but no big LS/DS difference. Romance options are both terrible.Almost everyone I spoke of dislikes the Consular story but they miss the point. Consular is like >>3695795 except you throw rocks and pipes in people's faces.All other stories are VERY subjective. Trooper is only fun if you commit war crimes but you get away scott free becausee the Senate is terrified of YET ANOTHER mass desertion, including you killing politicians who want to cut your fundingGame does need a sub to be really playable tho, otherwise the limited hotbars will drive you away.
>>3695636>I tried playing it recently, and the combat is fucking braindead, which seemed to not be the case at launch. Surely they did this to appeal to the f2p crowd.Tried it as f2p plebian going jedi knight and while story was not bad the gameplay loop was brain dead and I dropped it midway chapter 2 from lack of any real effort
>>3696780>Have sex on every planetLiterally impossible, even for one as slick as the Imperial Agent. Our own Galaxy has over 100 billion Star Systems, and the Star Wars Galaxy is 3 times as large as the Milky Way for comparison. And most Star Systems have planets of their own. If you wanted to nail a chick on EVERY planet starting in 3,700 BBY (when the game takes place) you'd be less than 1% finished with your quest by the time the Battle of Yavin takes place 37 centuries later. none of the IA playable races have a lifespan long enough to accomplish what you're suggesting>doing a 9/11 on the Sith CapitalBased, fuck the Empire
>>3695636I found that SWTOR was genuinely fun for the class stories but the expacs weren't nearly as good. Smuggler best story.
I guarantee they will do a fresh start and/or classic server at some point. There's too much money in it.Private modded servers, not sure if they're a thing or not. Google knows.
>>3696239I'm still made that they made KOTOR an MMO.
