Star Wars: The Old Republic Review


Star Wars: The Old Republic

About The Game

Star Wars is a massively multiplayer online role playing game developed by one of my favorite companies, Bioware. The game takes place 300 years before Biowares previous game Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic and 3,500 years before the films so I am afraid none of the star wars heroes are around in this game but fear not because you create your own hero and make a name for himself in the galaxy.  

What I Like About Star Wars: The Old Republic

This game has loads of fun packed in, I particularly enjoy the focus on the story and with each class having a different story you really get a lot of game time. For MMORPG it has a huge amount of dialog every quest you accept has dialog and even your hero has it's voice! On top that you can respond how you wish either light or dark side. A truly amazing addition to any MMO game and I would like to see more of this kind of thing in future MMO games. There are many features that you think to yourself why did no other game come up with this stuff it's just genius. Amazing game!

How Can The Game Be Improved

This game in my opinion has very little wrong with it, I think my only problem was that the end game content wasn't very good but I believe they have released a whole bunch of new exciting stuff to try out so I think this has now been fixed. This game really fixes all the problems that traditional MMO's have.

My Top 3 Tips For New Players

1. My first tip is to pick up "Crew Skills" that not only compliment each other but you should level them while you level it makes it a heck of a lot easier for you when you reach max level.

2. Join a "Guild" being part of guild has its benefits one major thing being that other people will help out lower levels either doing certain quests or giving some items that they don't need and so on.

3. "Have Fun" this game is huge go and enjoy it. If you are new to this particular kind of game don't fret, there are plenty of people to help you out and there is plenty of time to learn everything because the leveling time is the time when you learn everything you need to.

What Features Separate It From Other Games

Pretty much everything about this game separates it from other games in it's genre I think the only thing that remains across the other is the combat system. If you play any other MMO games you will know what I am talking about for example the "Teleport System" where players are allowed to teleport to a place after a certain cooldown but rather than that being one place you are bound too you unlock different teleport receivers so you can teleport any where. It's a lot better than World Of Warcraft where you could only select one place to teleport to. This is a great MMO if you are MMO fan I'd suggest this game over others.
