@@xzxxx-km4vy I only play the story content and flashpoints an I've been having a blast. If you want to do raids and get the highest level gear you need to sub. Everything else you can do f2p. If it's not for you that is fine. I've only paid for a 1 month sub 1 time and got so much content that I get to keep. You only need to sub for 1 month when they release new story content. If you want to do raids you have to keep being a sub.
@@MarineCARMINE Yeah i read that we get to keep everything and only need to sub again if they release new content thats pretty impressive, i will give this game a try once i'm done with KOTOR 1 and 2 i just started those games
Even back in the older days I remember really liking the stories of my Bounty Hunter and Sorcerer. After this video I'm almost in the mind to start again.
Honestly I played SWTOR several years ago and I did enjoy my time with the gameplay and I really liked the story and how much it allows you to feel like your own character in the world. Due real life reasons (and my PC completely breaking down) it fell to the wayside for years for no real singular concrete reason. This guide has piqued my interest and it might be time to pick it up again.
Swtor is great. It has its issues, sometimes I feel like it’s clunky with no addons, but I’ve been coming back to it for years. As someone who hasn’t consistently kept up with it, it’s always very nice to come back and see what’s changed and improvements they made. It feels extremely different now than it did 8 years ago when I started. I’ve always enjoyed the story and voice acted quests in the game. Definitely makes it more immersive.
It's like coming back to an old good friend you haven't seen for 10 years.. so many have happened and changed to both of you, you both don't recognize eachother anymore, but share the memories of wonderful times.
I have to admit that I was on the fence about trying out another MMO, but then I saw your other video and just gave it a shot. One week later, I subscribed. And by now, I have completed all my class story lines and am going through Knights of the Fallen Empire. And I have General Chat turned off. It's better this way.
Hey! Remember when our favorite Sith Lord used to played this game? Yeaaah. Those were solid days. Now im looking at the active members in Barq's Root Beer, and i can only see myself and a ½ other person :(
This game has everything that WoW is missing. The story and character involvement is amazing. I don't feel like 'champion' from azeroth, I feel like 'Ham Slammer' the Jedi consular sentinel.
I just started playing this week, and I'm loving this game. I had no idea my PC would be voiced. The first time she spoke my mouth fell open lol. I've got over 800 hours in ESO, and I wish they would implement a voice for the PC. It's so much more immersive.
I just started yesterday and I have no goddamn idea what I'm doing. I was just doing missions, but now I'm at the fleet and I'm so overwhelmed with all this stuff.
The "Don't worry, she likes it" bit at 4:04 is funny because, at least once you've gotten to the end of the romance, she actually DOES I have to say this was a very good video. You don't ignore the issues that the game has, but you also focus on the positives. I think you should have also specifically touched on how, even if the vets will bitch and moan about a lack of content or low quality content, there's still more than 10 years worth for new players to come and experience.
Definitely coming back . I played when it first came out with one friend and stopped 5 months in. I think its time to get back into it. bored with PoE and a few other games.
I first played this game when I was 9 years old and now I am revisiting this game 8 years later. I can't wait to play. Thank you so much for this guide
SWTOR is super underrated and its because Bioware took most of its team and put it on other games like Anthem and ME Andromeda. That is why the content slowed way down. Dont get me wrong what's there is great but as a vets dont have much to do at end game.. we've done it all. Conquests are a good idea but I hope we get more stories in that universe. There are so many planets and other stories in the Old Republic EU that are untapped. I also hope they bring it to a wider audience by putting it on console its the perfect MMO for consoles in my opinion.
I've been playing off and on since it's release. Last time I played was 4 years ago and I just started again. Just realized that I've been getting 100 cartel coins a month the entire time for having a one time password. Definitely a pleasant surprise 😁
I feel like I would’ve gotten caught up in this easily if I had gotten into in back in the day. The same way some get lost in WOW. Everything I hear about TOL seems & looks really cool. 😮
Ok maybe I am a rarity here but I have actually gotten pretty lucky with the loot box system on this game. Darth Malgus Armor, Revan's Armro, and some rare mounts and stuff have all gotten unlocked for me. Also it's good to mention that if you use the swtor encrypted key app they give you monthly free cartel coins as well.
i was into it when it first came out stopped playing and lost my account cant remember any of my info. time to get into the game again thanks for the video
I feel we are diametrically opposed, IBC Cream soda is the beverage for a galaxy far far away. Also to those afraid of leveling and starting out so late, it happens rapidly if anything. If you're weird like me and want a full set of heroic gear within the level limits leveling too fast is a thing. I'd suggest taking your time with the stories first, which offers more opportunities later, then finding specific niches to occupy your time.
I loved SWTOR until I was so level boosted, even with the red crystal, that I could solo group quests, it became less challenging. If this has been corrected, I would be happy to return.
Yeah, but sadly it won't because uberly simplifying gameplay no matter the area is common "development" for many companies 😮💨 RIP companion Npcs since yeaaars ago and more as we know.. 😐
Boy oh boy, I had a blast with this one back when I played from launch up till soon after the shadow of revan expansion. I dunno If I could ever come back to playing a tab target MMO now that I've played Final Fantasy 14. If anyone came up to me and tried to get me to play an MMO, I'd ask them this: "Can I play it with a controller?". If the answer is no, then away all my enthusiasm goes......
Understandable. I had a similar feeling after playing ESO for a while. Idk though, the nostaliga is strong with this one. I keep getting pulled in every now and then just to replay the class stories again :) It's like doing another run of Mass Effect, Dragon Age, or Baldur's Gate 2 for me
Yeah getting fashion in this game can make you go mad with how bad prices are, on top of most of the good ones only being sold on the cash shop. NGL i wanna come back to the game, just to get through a few of the classes i have yet to try.
I just came back after getting burned out on Dragonflight, and getting irritated by the gatekeeping in Wrath Classic. It's nice to just be able to queue in a dungeon and not have people start arguing with each other because 1 dude isn't doing as much damage as someone else thinks they should. Now if we can just do something about the people who say "spacebar pls" when someone decides to watch the cut scenes in a flashpoint.
Came back to Swtor last week after almost a year and I can barely play it anymore, constant lag and stuttering. Fps drops to 40-59 fps. I used to play it without issue on max settings before. I’ve tried so many fixes but to no avail, it sucks since I really like the game..
Omg, I just started playing this game while I wait for 10.1 in wow and now I'm so divided between the 2 games. the story is going sooo good so far. Great video!
i used to play swtot but since 2 months ago when i play on th "PLAY" button, nothing happens. i've tried everything but i can't play anymore and i don't understand why i miss trying to stop the emperor's ascension to immortality
It's not necessary, but I'd say new players should prob play KotOR I and II first in order to become familiar with important plot points and characters that will pop up in SWtOR.
its my first time, playing the free version, i was confused that there were other people in my game, i still don't know why/how that is happening.. i thought i could just play the campaign solo and privately..
SWTOR is a great single player RPG, but kinda crap MMORPG. Just completing all the class stories solo is the way to enjoy this game. They actually are kinda good. Imagine the mediocre mass effect missions, but doing them for 200 hours. Yea, that's SWTOR. There are some great moments as well, but this is most certainly quantity over quality kind of game when compared to single player Bioware games. I know i made it sound kinda crappy, but i still loved it.
Swtor after school was great 10 years ago it started going downhill imo after the hutt expansion but oh god the early days were amazing i hope they make another mmo
This is the only mmo I have ever maxed anything. I have fifteen. Fifteen. Maxed out characters. I have played through every class story at least twice if not more. Something about this mmo just ignited that star wars fan boy in me.
Thanks for posting tthat. Although I've been playing off and on for years, I still feel like a noob. Thanks for making me feel like I suck less. Cheers.
This probably wasn't planned, but with the current star wars animation style (rebels, clone wars, bad batch), this 10 year old MMO feels like a spin off of those
@World Razer of Swtor 🤣 We nuked the game? Sure. I thought I found the hardest copium comment on my channel, but this is defo it. Game is dead because game is shit. Much like your accusation skill level.
Have they at LEAST fixed the bug that gave my _droid companion_ Rakghoul Plague? Because I don't know how they can justify a machine catching a bio plague. (I'm already back. Wasn't gonna let 'em reuse my names. That's right out.)
dude, THANK YOU for keeping the SWToR community alive! Such an underrated game.
You definitely forgot to mention, that when you sub any story content that comes out at that time you keep unlocked forever even when your sub expires
The most important thing you need to know in SWTOR is that no FASHION SINS shall remain UNPUNISHED!🖤💗
I wasn't punished yet 👀
Its hard to stay on the right side of the fashion force when nearly every good colour module is locked behind a CC Paywall.
Every single character that dresses identical to Revan is now an enemy of the Republic
@@Unavailable_Username. And the Empire lmao

SWTOR is so underrated. It is a great casual MMO to just sit down and play for a few hours and enjoy the story.
MMO KEKW it's a RPG with multiplayer.

Yes, it is great how grounded my character is in the star wars universe. Better than most games, not just MMO's
I really have to say that this is one of the funniest videos about what swtor is i have ever seen.
"Level sync that allows u to enjoy a zone content even if u outlevel it"...
WOW DESPERATLY NEEDS THIS SHIT!!!!
SWTOR is great to play with a friend
I just started playing this week, and I'm loving this game. I had no idea my PC would be voiced. The first time she spoke my mouth fell open lol. I've got over 800 hours in ESO, and I wish they would implement a voice for the PC. It's so much more immersive.
Are you able to run the game without constant lag and stuttering?
Yes. YES YESSSSS. This game slaps hard.
I should say for it's age lmao
I just started yesterday and I have no goddamn idea what I'm doing. I was just doing missions, but now I'm at the fleet and I'm so overwhelmed with all this stuff.
It's so awesome to see how far this game has come, thanks for your awesome SWTOR videos nix
Typo there and here's the fix: "How short way this actually has come & barely survived in hands of skeleton crew" 🙂
I was part of 2 beta testing, got the big box collector's edition really a great game!! Stories are the best
10:08 gotta love the callback to the Fuck you Baltimore ad lol
Nice catch :D Glad you enjoyed it haha
The "Don't worry, she likes it" bit at 4:04 is funny because, at least once you've gotten to the end of the romance, she actually DOES
I have to say this was a very good video. You don't ignore the issues that the game has, but you also focus on the positives.

Being in Australia I came back just for the fact that we have out Oceanic server back .... and I'm loving it, even subbed:D
I loved playing this game when it released way way waaaay back
Yknow what, I'll say it. If you started playing wow in like, MoP or later, SWTOR is the game your heart wants
Ive been playing for 7 years but i still watch these kinds of videos for some reason
I gave in to my temptation to play this game 5 years ago but still i enjoy these vids
If only EA and BioWare gave more attention and money to SWTOR it would super big
Imagine what a new 64 bit engine would do..
@@tobberino downloaded the 64 bit client today
@@resaledragon it has released??
It did a while ago, I believe
SWTOR is great, I have the gold avatar and if WoW classic wrath wasn't a thing, I would be playing it.

Agreed. I looked it up on my xbox after not playing for years. Was surprised not to find it there
Just started playing again, having a blast!!!
I just returned to the game and am loving it again.
That game is so fricken fun. You can have a lot of fun with the story and I can always enjoy getting on the game.
I loved the "don't call me Shirley" reference :D
I played this years ago and it was so fun
SWTOR is definitely one of the best MMOs out there right now.
Not even close when comes to creative gameplay & events. 🙂
Funny. Informative. Love it.
This was always my go to MMO when I was delusioned by WoW. I am happy to see the game is still thriving!
I've been playing off and on since it's release. Last time I played was 4 years ago and I just started again. Just realized that I've been getting 100 cartel coins a month the entire time for having a one time password. Definitely a pleasant surprise 😁
With the strongholds you can make cool machinimas.
The question is: When are we going to get a model viewer for swtor?????
Laughing so hard at the Cartel Market ad part 😂
