Old Republic - 20 min Video Preview

Howdy folks,

If you haven't had a chance to see it yet, go check out the video preview of Star Wars: The Old Republic posted over at IGN. It's a 4-part series. The link to the first part is below; use the sidebar to see parts 2-4.

The video has some very cool stuff. You get to see a lot of combat, including the first look at the Sith Warrior class. They also show off the recently-announced smuggler class.

I am thoroughly impressed so far. It looks like the right mix between action game and MO. Some of the stuff looks sick. I'm still waiting to see how they make this into something that will involve a lot of people playing at once (aka, not just an online single-player game). But it looks very promising.

Keep praying that they get this one right.

Impressive, most impressive.

Looks like a fairly decent Star Wars MMO. At least better than SWG.

Yeah, it really looks to me like a single-player game... I'm intrigued to see how it'll hold up with loads of people, but if anybody can make a game this amazing-looking work, it'll be Bioware.

Really can't wait for this game!

Man that Bounty Hunter is buffed! Still I sense it in the force that most people will choose Sith and Jedi warriors.

I <3 Jac.

It doesn't take the force to sense that most will choose Sith or Jedi. I think that this game looks awesome. I wonder what the pvp battles will be like. If they decide to let this one fall by the wayside, I will hunt them down.

I think it will be interesting to see how it balances out. So far it seems pretty good, and I think it will definitely be worth investing in.

Long live the DBPA!

IT AINT YOUR CONSERN!

I'm not really an MMO guy, but I watched this video the other day and found myself thinking about getting it when it comes out - really solid preview.

I love that bioware is the developers of this game if anyone can pull it off its them.

As far as everyone playing a Sith or a Jedi, lots of people thought the same in SWG but their other classes were equally as interesting. So far I have every intention of playing the other classes in this game as well as the Sith I am planning.

Thanks for the update Jac.

Everyone will play Jedi and Sith only?
Hell no :P

I wanna be a smuggler, pounding people in the groin and finishing them off with a shot to the face? Sounds like my night with Tarax's mom. :P lol

I think I shall buy this game. Thanks for the update Jac, you should be the T:G :P

Smuggler FTW.

Excellent video and much thanks for posting it Jac :)
