That dancing has always been available in SWG. It definatly is currently in SWG.
But too many players are used to playing other mmorpgs. In which your character is stuck forever being whatever profession you first pick. Even though they know they can learn 3 1/2 professions at the same time, many players still cannot comprehend such a revolutionary idea. And the fact that SWG has over 30+ professions. This helps the fact that few players fully explore all the professions in SWG because they are not used to the idea of having 1 character that is able to do this. Sidebuster, and players like him, are what Raph Koster was trying to get mmorpg gamers to become. To not be afraid to fully explore the game. To not have to have the game DEVs tell players what to do. To not rely only on quests from NPCs (another way of relying on the game DEVs to tell the players what to do.)
So few players thought outside the box. Few players fully explored the dancer profession. Few players knew what was available, or even found out what was available. It is NICE Sidebuster, and the other guy who made the other video, were not afraid to fully explore the game, the features.... one example being what they did with the Dancer profession. Few explored it enough to learn what was avaialbe, what was custimizeable such as being able to make "Hip-Hop" moves. As well as make moves from almost any other dance form. Including Ballet, tango, flemenco, cha-cha, heavy metal moshing, and more.
Same thing with other professions. One thing that got to me was when melee loving players complained about being owned in blaster fights. First of all range rules melee. But if a melee player plans, and thinks, and uses strategy, .... they have a NICE shot at owning a ranged player. I even posted some stratagies for melee players to have a chance vs ranged players. Instead they whined to the game DEVs. Who then allowed melee to hit other players even if they were not close to them!!!
Or another example, when some players complained on the forums they could not find any Points of Intrest on some of the planets. They wanted the game DEVs to post the exact locations of the Points of Intrest. I interrupted saying part of the fun is braving the unknown wilds and finding them. Not knowing if you are going live or die, or what you will find. Too many players are impatient, lack imagination, want to be held by the hand, want to be told what to do..... and thus end up never discovering the full potiential of a game, or in game professions.
(I am generalizing here. I am not talking about anyone here at MMORPG.com. )
A lot of the intresting features, and things in SWG, cannot be listed because there is not enough space, or because they are much more fun being discovered on ones own.
Man, that video was so HOT I can't touch it. Great music choice for the adventuring an the dancing. Funny thing is it was almost like watching myself dance, becuase some of those are my ace cards in the club.
I rate that a 5/5... I got to get my videos going soon too. My first video is a video on me playing Halo PC. I'll see if I can get it up sometime if you guys want to see it.
Excellent video. I like it as much as the well known videos from Windspire Entertainment.
What I like most about this video is THESE rarely shown dance moves, very much in tune with the beat, and some well filmed scenes of bounty hunter droids in action.
Yeah I liked how Sidebuster's video showed the BH droid in action. But actually I think they are called Probe Droids. Originally used by the Empire. But in SWG they can be used for other uses like Bounty Hunting. And yes Sidebuster showed lots of dance moves rarely seen and even never before seen:
Yeah so when can we expect the next installment of Estevon's Hunt? I know you siad you wer ethinking about a serie sbut have you set a production schedule yet?

I've actually played SWG, just never checked out the dancer profession.
