Did you get youre info from LiveJournal? And thats a good job, the game is new and the team over there is all new to the game basically, so its a good place to be. Rather than join some 3 year old dying game.

haha, that's funny. I played with her on DDO all through beta. Good for her. I got a friend on the inside over there, lol. Too bad I don't much like DDO.

As one of the only SWG people to give a crap about the players, I wish her luck in her new job.
Glad to see Tiggs working for DDO. It's a great game with great potential.

Must be the same thing that you smoke when you talk about the virtues of the NGE and how "the servers are not dead"
You more than anybody should know that there are different strokes for different folks. I happen to think that DDO is a great game with a lot of potential (A HELL of a lot more than SWG now anyways). I tried it, but I'm so sick of the fantasy theme that I'm not gonna play it.
SOE knows what you like... You don't!
And don't forget... I am forcing you to read this!
At the time of that post bloodfin was not dead , 2 months later it is . Unlike many when I am wrong I have no problem admitting it . I don't recall any virtues i have spoke of about NGE other than i had a bit of fun while playing . Besides this was a joke towards someone from my server on SWG ( as in someone i know ) Why you must stick your 2cents in is beyond me .
Edit: So can you please point out which virtues I speak of ? This is the second post i made about my feelings of SWG the first was just as criticle .
Well Op , really your best shot is try the game through its trial .
But i'll Give you a little info on some of the differences of the NEW SWG .
Gameplay : NGE , Well you now must initiate your auto-attack yourself (while focusing on aiming on a target And using specials fired from either your right mouse button , hotkeys) . Questing is your main route for lvling . Creature grinding is a very long process , So the whole grind group option is gone now . Though you can lvl at a decent rate through space combat .
JTL: Has remained basiclly unchanged (other than you gain ground xp now )
A.I. : NPC's are a little more interesting now , Elites actually can give you a decent fight in some situations . Though sadly there are a few issues that have not be dealt with yet . Due to the new twitch based combat , you often find your self misfiring into a crowd of npcs. The end result usually means a trip to the cloner or taking a run for it , Which can be a tad more than simply frustrating .
Another frustrating issue for many players is given how fast combat is now , You often find yourself with to little action to fire off that much needed heal .
Questing / Content : This is where NGE is supposed to shine , Yet at present time it fails to deliver . There are some nicely done quests , From LVL 1 to I belive around 50 now . They again pick up from lvl 70-90 . Sadly inbetween you are left in a void almost seemingly unable to advance . This is unacceptable in a Pay to Play game . ( Alpha/Beta testing is usually free ) ::
::
Crafting/entertaining : These two career paths seem to be in a void at present time . The development team has been very quiet in regards to their intentions toward these two professions. Crafting is still basiclly intact , But the removal of Decay has hurt Armorsmiths, Weaponsmiths badly , Other paths still have a decent income depending on your server population of course .
Entertaining has no viable purpose at present , The only announcement thus far from SOE has been they will be receiving combat abilities .
Professions / Skills: There are only 9 professions now , which cuts down on bugs and other issues of the old skill system . Though the skill based system was one of the main reasons many of us enjoyed this game as much as we did . If you prefer individuality this system is not for you . If you prefer a class sytem that is small and easily balanced you may enjoy it greatly .
Endgame: At present your only option is to PVP or do a few of the dungeons . Yet as with everything else listed sadly SWG still fails to deliver a solid experience . Maybe in a year things will be different , Yet again customers should not be forced to pay in order to participate in SOE"S development testing .
Community: Sadly this is something not fixed in a hotfix , Truth betold the communitys across all servers are hurting at present . Its not unrare to see at most 10-20 people while on a shuttle hoping tour . There is no longer a reason to gather in any location , Which means finding a group or A decent amount of PVP can be a task in itself . Again maybe in a year things will be different .
I have tried to give a fair unbiased observation of SWG at present , Yes you may have fun playing ,it would not surprise me . Only you can decide that , so give it a shot . They need all the people they can get .
