Good morning everybody!

I played a lot of mmorpg games (eq,eq2,swg,mxo,aa,wow,eve,cov,atitd,ddo etc etc.) but i need now an unique game. SWG was a very uniqe mmorpg game but soe destroyed it you know...I played with Final Fantasy VII it was a very very good game :-) So my question is. Is this game to be worth the money? Or i should forget it and play tetris or mario on my gameboy. Another questions :

- is there US and EU versions?

- what is about player housing?

- how about crafting?

- is there an end-game?

- how about pvp?

- is there "dungeons" or "instances" in the game?

- how is the community and the server population? (mature or kids)

- where can i buy the game online? (only serial number needed + download)

For first thank you for your questions

    1. Yes.

    5. You have your own Mog House, with a Moogle.

    17. Lots of crafting...just, a lot...

    23. Yes.

    49. There is PvP, but it comes later in the game, you must complete a quest to PvP. It's not a hard quest at all by the way.

    94. Uh huh...

    139. The community is very adult-like. You will hardly ever catch anybody being immature, thoughs who disagree are just running into one of those one in a life time happenings.

    212. Scroll to the very bottom of the page to find where you can buy the game for each system.

    Very good questions but, those will not determine if you will like it or not...
    The game takes a certain taste of approval before dipping into the main course.

    This game deserves a TRY at the least, just give it a shot. I was lucky to like it because I spent nearly 200.00 US dollars for the Ps2 version when it first came out and I have loved it ever since.

    I've certainly found it worth my money; it's currently my main MMORPG.

    Yes, there are US and EU versions. But while the software and accounts are regionalized (the regions being JP, NA and EU), the servers are not; everyone plays on the same servers.

    There's player housing. It's instanced, and only you can enter your Mog House. You get to decorate your Mog House as you like. Some types of furniture give you additional storage, and various bonuses (called Moghancements) become available depending on how you've decorated.

    Yes, there's crafting. It's fairly deep and there's a very active market in crafting materials and products.

    There's about four or five end games, depending on what you want to do. Dynamis, Limbus, Sky, Sea, and others.

    There's no PvP at all in regular play. There are PvP games you can participate in: Ballista and Brenner.

    There's not much instancing in this game. There's some instanced boss fights you can access, but that's about it.

    If you can buy the game online without buying a physical package, I'm not aware of it; the SE official site does not list such a possibility.
