False Emperor

I ran my first, successful, hardmode flashpoint last night in SWTOR. It was a lot of fun. We tried the mission about a week ago and failed due to a bug making it impossible to beat. Since then, a couple people in the guild have made a few successful runs, Read more…

Guns, Lots of Guns

My smuggler has been at 400 Armstech for awhile now. My Jedi has also been at 400 Cybertech for about as long. What have I learned? That at max level, Armstech is fairly useless. It was nice making barrels for my guns as I leveled. It will be useful when Read more…

Ding! 50!

I reached level 50 with my smuggler on Monday. That’s 49 days since launch, and just under 7 days of /played time (my Jedi Knight alt has 2days and my two imperial characters have about 12hrs between them). Bioware said each class has about 200hrs of story, which isn’t far Read more…

SWTOR Check

It has been almost a month since SWTOR launched (well EGA anyways) so I thought I would update my thoughts on the game so far. Companions The companions are a great addition to gaming. For so long, you would go into a dangerous situation alone and take on scores of Read more…

Purple Haze

I’ve never been a huge fan of purple. Nothing against it, just wasn’t my favorite color. Unlike pink, which I detest. Until Attack of the Clones came out. Now, we’ll avoid talking about the prequels except to say that Mace Windu’s purple lightsaber just looked damn cool. I don’t really Read more…

The Ocaitchi Legacy

I recently finished chapter 1 in SWTOR with my smuggler character. One of the games features at this point is the unlocking of the Legacy system. There isn’t much to it right now, aside from earning xp towards legacy levels (that don’t mean anything yet) and the ability to have Read more…

SWTOR- One Week Impressions

Well, I have been in SWTOR for a week now and today the game officially launches. While I wait in a (horribly inaccurate) queue, I think I’ll take a look at my game experience so far: The Status Level 22 Scoundrel with Armstech level 170 Level 10 Jedi Knight (can’t Read more…

Here it Comes

Well, tomorrow’s the big day, SWTOR begins Early Game Access. Since I registered my pre-order key the morning it started, I expect I’ll be able to get in tomorrow. If not, then WAY to many people were up and ordering the game overnight. I face a tough dilemma. There is Read more…

One thing at a time!

There is a lot of interesting tidbits of news and developments in the gaming world. I just spent two days being sick and am trying to catch up on writing but the internet is against me. X3: Albion Prelude So, it doesn’t look like X:Rebirth will be coming out this Read more…

NDA KIA

Just learned that the NDA for SWTOR beta testing has been dropped. Here are my thoughts, keep in mind, that these were based on beta experience and the many of the interface issues at least will probably get fixed. UI Pros UI- Most things are pretty straightforward. Ability to easily Read more…
