I have to say, I heard about the game only once before in an old episode of STOked. They had mentioned it didn't look as exciting as STO did and I didn't think about it at all. When I read the blog post today about MMO's I decided to look it up.
BIOWARE! Fucking
Bioware is making it and no one told me? Finding that out forced me to watch some vids...
I would sell my first born, like I know who he is anyways, for a game like that. I watched the developers video as well which shown actual game play as well as PC/NPC interaction and flashpoints. I am still amazed, intrigued and using less than 20% of the seat I was sold. This could be the game I have waited for for a long time now.
Now, yes... I did enjoy STO and have attempted to defend them as hard as any fanboy ever could. That in itself is hard to defend when offering my opinion of another game of the same genre. I have to say though, I come from a writers history of Star Wars RP if not general star wars games (except, if you can believe, the most popular modern releases). I grew up with Star Trek, I watched Star Wars.
