No it's not. It's WoW with a BAD Star Wars skin to it...
I would completely disagree. Though the class system was turned into a stock mmo type system, the game has a lot more depth and complexity than WoW has, and even more scope. It's far from perfect, agreed, but its no WoW.
I know most you will never go back but I got sick of hack and slash fantsy, I went back Full time after the Chpt 6 release to try out BeastMaster and I having fun I was able to get a few friends to come back and we are spanking the NGE kids! They are lame, sorry they beg for items they cry after spanking them in pvp its just great to get hate tells again! Also I'm making credits had over fist made 700 million since chapter 6, the kiddies have a lot credits and they spend them fast. I working on lvl'ing a Bounty Hunter because these kids are so fun to kill. Just FYI, comabt reminds me of CU period of the game but with less specials. Darkside is the way to go with a Jedi. Spys are the only problem if they are smart most are not. Well we joined another IMP guild are city was dead, But we are bring traffic through this city and growing it. Any ways as a Vet I would recomend you try the game again its a heck of lot better now and if your sick of hack and slash fantsy what can you loose nothing because they have the free trial. Ajax
When they address crafting I'll come back and try again. Until then I have played that game and I don't enjoy it.
They are working with the crafting system. When bug bash goes live structures will be able to color furniture and their are some up's & down's with what they are doing to domestics. Then here in a couple of months the new revamped and upgraded village will return for the heroic quests system.
I went back after pub 6 as well. Im having a blast. Yeah its a totally diffrent game but its fun. Im floored by the number of vets Im running into. Entire guilds coming back to Bloodfin. Who would have thought. Damn shame I sold my original accounts.

LOL ya right. Here we go with the "Attack of the Fanbois"... Give it up dude, Bloodfin is the ONLY server with any population, and it isn't much... How do I know that? It's my server, that's how.

Where did you find depth? A useless crafting system? A WoWish pet system? A completely ripped off from WoW talent system? What exactly is 'complex' about SWG in its current state? Removing complexity was one of the major reasons for the NGE (there is a reason even the current development team continually insinuates the current players are stupid).
The only things the current version of SWG has over WoW, is space and the 'We're to lazy to make content so make it your damn self!' Story Teller system. Everything else has been mutilated into something similar to WoW. Neither of those things make SWG have more depth or complexity than WoW.

True dat, Obee...
The good SWG I had before all these CUs and NGEs was the only game where I could spend my entire time just observing what was going on, and never feel like it was ever a waste of time.
With all this CU and NGE going on, it always feels like a waste of time no matter how much I do.

I completely agree (he said as he makes his very first post on these forums...ever)!
Like I'm sure many others I'm a disgruntled SWG refugee who hasn't written much. I've been watching the SWG forums as an observer and I heard them flaming these forums so I figured "I just GOTTA go check them out!"
Like thousands of others I went to WoW from SWG. WoW is far from a perfect game, and the fact it's playable by 10-12 year olds doesn't show it has much depth, but it's damn solid entertainment for me as compared to the wasteland SWG is nowadays.
Pre-CU was unique. We had one character that could become any class. I explored nearly every class during Pre-CU, and all with the same character! It was truly our own story in the SW universe.
Along comes NGE, and everything went to Hell. Suddenly we're in a dumbed down game which isn't WoW, (it's not nearly as good), our characters have to remain one class, (yet we're only allowed two characters per account as compared to the nine WoW gives us, and my favorite occupation, merchant, gets tossed to the wayside for months as the devs start working on trying to fix their attempt at copying the aspects of WoW.
If this were ANY other game besides the one that carried the SW name it would have completely folded. The BIGGEST thing that kept players in game was the fact it was Star Wars...
The NGE ISN'T SWG, it's the abomination SWG became...

SWG was a game with choice and diversity... This isn't SWG. It is a game that needs a LOT of work to even be good.
Umm.. its not "good ol SWG" its StarWars.. nothing else.
Good ol' SWG is dead.

SWG R.I.P
