Boy is roleplaying gonna be fun in this one! Gonna have to read up all of the Old Republic stuff so I can get it all right *hides behind desk*
Yes, I'm a roleplayer. I'm still member of a UO freeshard so suck it!
I'm sure the single player experience is gonna be awesome, i'm just afraid the mmo side wont be as good. Lets hope for the best.
There is no Single Player experience. It's all online in an MMO environment.
Check the dev videos, you can do singel player missions ans quests and you'll even get an npc companion.
As long as you can play it as a singel player rpg I'm onboard.
One of the dev videos mentioned why the graphics look more cartoonish, his explanation was that they didnt want this to look like "another next gen" game which is utter bs. They just wanna mimic WoW. But if the game is fun then who cares...
Anyone know if you can fly ships in space?
I see. Well, even better. I love KOTOR it's amazing, and I think The Old Republic will rock. Story driven massive RPG experience + online, what more can you ask Except maybe

Welcome to World of Warc.. uh, I mean World of StarWars: THe Old Republic with pretty much the same mechanics driving the whole thing.
Cartoony graphics don't age so fast. I can understand the reason they chose to make graphics similar to WoW style. That however doesn't mean SWTOR will have same mechanics as WoW. And I certainly hope it won't be as boring as WoW...
This thing is the most epic and amazing trailer i've seen in a long long time. I just can't stop watching it. It is so great. "A single spark of courage can ignite the fires of hope.." Epic

Last time I got shivers like that was during the WoW trailers.

From what I gathered, since I used to be a major Kotor and Bioware fanboy, the game mechanics will very much be like wow. Same type of talent tree progression (few choices), item heavy.
When you make a game this big, you make sure everyone gets it. Combat will be dead simple. Not even close to something like dragon age, or even better, neverwinter nights. Not, it will be simplistic WoW whack a mole 1-2-3 repeat combat.

i bet he means you can solo missions with an npc companion ala guild wars not an offline single player game

I already gave up on this game.
Well I don't follow this game too much. But if you're right then I'll be disappointed. But we'll see how's the game once it's released. Maybe it'll be good, maybe not. But anyway, there's still GW2

I really hope they manage to implant some brilliant pvp..Not like WoW, it's just ... bad.
Please give me fights/duels that last for more than 2 minutes and got a somewhat epic feeling to them.
The concepts I've heard and read about is awesome in my opnion. So I'm just awaiting the release
Hm, those are ordinary republic troops / commandos, not clones - The clones appear way later.
That's what I was thinking. But their uniforms look just like the clones', I don't think I've seen any uniforms like that in any KOTOR game so I just assume they came to be when the clones came. Also the text at gametrailers for the trailer confused me a bit: "The Sith, Jedi and clones throw down the gauntlet deep within the forests of Alderaan in this epic cinematic trailer lasting more than five minutes! "
i wonder where the MMO part of this game is, we see alot of CGI cutscenes etc, saw a gameplay video of someone playing solo....
I am looking forward for this game but i expect the game to be fully multiplayer in all aspects, basicly wow with a starwars theme , atm we have seen nothing like that which worries me.

Yeah too bad the actual gameplay looks pretty terrible.

Yep. I'm not yet impressed with SW:OR gameplay. And the fact that your team members can change the outcome of a scene is a big minus for me. I don't want some random douchebag to hinder my roleplaying choices.
After having seen and read everything available about SW TOR, it's safe to conclude, that it will be wow+sw+housing (ships). Nothing more. Voice acted all the way through? That's not originality ffs, that's only a big budget. There are no interesting gameplay features, even game previewers came away with abittersweet taste in their mouths, and everyone knows : what bioware touches, is golden, and must be at least 8.8 (we all know how review sites - more like commercial sites, eh IGN- work like).
All in all, the single reason I took a liking to star wars (was loving, before I saw the movies) was the kotor series. I didn't watch a single SW movie, until I finished the first kotor, and kotor 1 and 2 even more so are the only reason I ever took an interest in SW.
I thought ME2 was a big sellout, but BioWare, you officially suck now.

I'll preface this with saying I'm not defending the game, but I will say that its ridiculous to make up your mind before even a beta is released and ANYONE has really played it.
You have no idea how the gameplay will be really, just conceptually.
Anyhow, I don't disagree with most of what you said, as I am still excited for another game to mirror WoW's quality.
We all forget, WoW is one hell of a great game the way its made. For many of us, it just ran its course.
Another universe, with improvements, and expansiveness = more fun for me.
