The Ultimate Old Republic Discussion
What is the best class? Who is the coolest companion? Are you going light or dark side? Come in and share your thoughts with the community.
By now, many in our site community (including a bunch of Game Informer editors) have had time to dig in and partake of BioWare's gigantic new MMORPG. With eight distinct character stories, hundreds of hours of recorded dialogue, a number of different character companions, and all sorts of crazy narrative choices, there's a lot to chat about and share.
We've had a blast here in the office talking to each other about getting our characters started, and we want to extend that conversation to the rest of the GI community. To that end, we've put together a list of some of the most popular topics we've been talking about. Answer one or more of the questions below in the Comments section of this story.
1. Who is your character, and what is he or she like? Good? Evil? Great with the ladies? A total smart aleck to everyone you meet? A selfish jerk who will do anything for money?
2. Who is your favorite companion character in the game? Do you love your little astromech droid, T7? The imposing Khem Val? Or maybe your trusty starship droid? Someone else? Are there any companion characters you really don't like?
3. What is your favorite mission thread so far? Did you love the Revanite compound on Dromund Kaas? How about the Flesh Raider who wants to be a Jedi on Tython?
4. What is The Old Republic's coolest innovation in the MMO game space? Fully voice-acted conversations? Crew skills? Starship combat? Or some aspect of ground combat? Or did some other feature get you excited?
Share your thoughts on these topics, and throw additional questions out to the rest of the GI community.
And enjoy adventuring as we roll into the New Year!
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
