Why is that bad? That person has had steady voice acting work for over a decade probably, and you think youre better than them because you work in an office? wtf? youre a loser gamer like the rest of us
The new companion system looks really fun! One of the reasons I love HK-51 as a companion is that he feels earned, and I can only think B3-S1 is going to feel even more so
It would be way more rewarding if these type of "earned" companions were better then any free companions. Like legendary implants that have a special buff. That would make me care about companions.
I was always wondering why Trooper, Smuggler, Agent, Bounty hunter didn't introduced a protege or Jedi or Sith classes didn't introduced a new padawan for player. It seems Sahar will fill that gap.
@Swtorista well now if you do have that basilisk mount from the cartel market you can place it next to the mini one for an adorable part of a stronghold lol
Bored, bored, bored and bored. Oh look another companion like we don't have far to meny already. No new fp's and no new ops at point the games just not worth the sub.
Many thanx for the updates.. As a long time swtor player who 'fell to the darkside' for a few years I recently returned and was feeling a little lost in anything except story (which is and has always been my main content anyway) But watching this and your other videos has helped me to fill in the blanks knowledge wise.. I dropped off the story a little after the start of the 'Return of Malgus' arc as felt burned out from non stop playing and fell into things like ESO during that time instead but it never had that one thing i craved from SWTOR which was the feeling you were in a story.. needless to say coming back to swtor older and now wiser is quite refreshing, even if a little like playing catch up sometimes on the various classes.. Needless to say after doing the 4th full run of the same story regardless of Imperial or Republic it has slowed things But it actually feels good to be back in this universe again despite what troubles the makers have had and despite a few questionable game choices like the removal of voice acting at places in place of those dialogue pickers.. I missed the reason they did that when looking what was new.. Not sure why so many have said that swtor is over, doomed etc etc because as far as i can tell from this video and from my own return experiences, The game feels very much alive and as enjoyable as ever even if a slight step down from what we had during KOTFE which i dont think will ever be beaten..
You think SWTOR have brighter future now? I wish it could get such a huge updates like years ago however its not possible with Broadsword. SWTOR is my last resort after Disney butchered whole franchise and its hard to see it slowly slowing down... :/
If I wanted to play WoW, I will play WoW. StarWars fans are story driven. Easter egg hunts and seasonal "missions" (Minus Life Day) do not interest us. I'm not attacking you. I just hope we do not continue on this path. This is my opinion, I do not speak for everyone.
the constantly need to redo our gear again and again, it'll happen again in the future, killed the game for me after last years update with the mandalorians. i just cant do it anymore.
As long as we don’t end up on Voss again. Imagine defeating the Emperor, just to have 3 Voss mystics tell you to sweep a cantina so that they can tell you about a threat to the galaxy…and then they still tell you nothing.
Im looking the video in background and i cant stop thinking... Why they made a 3d model like Sa'har, and then not reworking the shit modeling of a 20 years old game of the player character XD. Its like have two games in one, one old and the other new XD
All MMO's continue to be updated. The original Final Fantast MMO is twice that age. Not even remotely 'crazy' as it's normal for the genre. FFXIV is expected to last 30 years.
So let me get this straight Still no CO-OP enhancement for the entire game's story Still no graphic engine upgrades, just useless "modernisation" AKA lazy, turtle pace remake of visuals in very specific areas neglected for a decade Still no increase in story content per release which has become nothing more than a handful of short and annoying missions with a few new sets and new raid per "major update" Lame as hell looks like the game is still shit for now That new studio handling business seems to not have changed anything at all
I just want an legacy title for Imperial AND Republic Squad Commander...I had to play for hours with that Houk who's name doesn't deserve to be remembered.
Thanks for the video. I don't use social media much, but If I could suggest any easy changes to SWTOR that could mean a world of difference I would recommend two things. 1) Let us drag companion summoning onto our toolbar or choose a "favorites" "summon random favorite" with an ability for that in our legacy we can put on our toolbar. Looking through the 500 companions we have is awful. 2) This is a graphical addition WoW has. When in raids or pvp have a separate graphic settings available. I turn shadows off when I pvp to get much higher performance and others with more limited setups even have to turn shaders down, vegetation etc. I think both these easy to implement options would be a huge quality of life increase.
As a pvper adding adrenals and medpacs to the pvp reward track is a huge "F U we dont care about adding actual rewards". Like really? I have 3000 adrenals and medpacs in my inventory.
Garbage story line. SWTOR is nothing without the Emperor. SWTOR is nothing without Marr. SWTOR is nothing without Revan. SWTOR is nothing without Satele. SWTOR is nothing without ANY OF THE GOATS. Rando characters, terrible character design, unoriginal worlds, NEEDS MORE MALGUS DESPERATELY. Desperately needs PvP updates, new modes, new maps, select the mode you want to play, HUTTBALL IS GARBAGE. Desperately needs NEW UI. Could use NEW CLASSES. Could use NEW MOVES FOR EXISTING CLASSES / REWORKS (DONT TOUCH JUGG OR ASSASSIN THEY ARE PERFECT). Could use RANKED PVP. Why remove it? If it's toxic to you, don't play it. Let the people who enjoy it play it. It's not for you if you get easily enraged by what a rando on the internet has to say. Boohoo, a pity. Move on SHMUCK or sit down and GIT GUD. You think the Souls community will kiss you on the hand and say it's ok bb everyone loses. NO. THIS IS WAR. SITH VS JEDI.
I have been away from the game for quiet some time. I am a founder if that tells you how long Ive been with the community but sadly I dont keep up as much as I should. Is the lore that is going on in game is it considered canon or are the things that happen in game considered legends?
I’ve been playing since 2012. There were loads of players back then but ever since they introduced the option of switching servers, they lost a shit ton of loyal long term players due to all the restrictions posed and dead economy in the APAC server. It was really the foolishness of BioWare who caused many to permanently quit. The only reason I’m still playing is cuz I didn’t switch servers so the S.A server still has a somewhat healthy economy, just that prices on the GTN have shot up sky high cuz not many ppl remaining compared to its golden years.
I still love the game but I've checked out of the new story content and pvp. And if I'm honest I've stopped getting excited for updates, cause they're never that amazing.
I'm a solo story player and the story is still awesome. It's only annoying having to wait ages for a small amount of new story added. But again that due to people complaining about a long wait for a big chunk of story so they can't win either way
@@jedibateman9452 yeah the story is great, i recently completely finished all the available story on my sith warrior and i admit i've definitely been impatient for it, i loved working with the mandalorians
I'm still here begging for an Eopie. I'm tired of their modern show/story stuff with nothing from the classics. So tired that I'm considered unsubbing after the update. Never thought I'd want to do that. 😞You'd think TPM anniversary would've inspired them but noooo. I do like the basilk though. And I hope those dailies are finally available to all characters, not just end game.
Here's hoping Broadsword are working towards a big graphical update. The vanilla character models are looking way out of date and inconsistent against the new story npc characters. It's been happening since KotET with newer characters looking a lot more detailed in realism. And now with Sa'har, compare her to Vette and they look like they're from different universes. If say Update 8.0 gives us character models update Broadsword will have put they own stamp on the game in a big way.
Is the Spring Festival interfering with the Dantooine Culinarian achievement because I'm having problems collecting two items that are supposedly only available during peacetime.
Once you finish tier 10 Bessie is opened up for all your characters on your account, not just on legacy, just pay a 1 time 10 cartel coin fee. It took me about 7 weeks. She loves military gifts to get her to 50 influence. DPS is at least as good as Shae and Orbital Strike is her AOE. It will take 3 weeks to finish tier 11 and you get a custom skin for her.
The story ended after the emperor was defeated, Revan and the exiles souls are at peace. I’d suggest they retire it too. It’s been real but it was dead before BioWare gave up on it altogether. That said, I’d love the game to be translated to a single player experience for preservation purposes some day. Finally get that KOTOR 3 on consoles for those who missed the experience.
1 year between each update is crazy tho, not even expansion but story update. by the time each update comes, i've forgotten what happened in the last one.
This is cute and all, but if they really want to do something for pvp: 1. New warzone 2. New arena 3. Bring back the leaderbord!!!! You basically have to beg people to enter pvp anymore (outside of some very dedicated guilds).
Thank you very much for the video, Swtorista: it`s informative, interesting, and on the personal note - I really like your voice. ) Okay, now I have a few thoughts on the future of our favorite game, please let me know what you think as well. As I see it, the 'hints' the devs said they`d been leaving clearly lead us towards the life support SWTOR is going to get put on. But, it might actually be a good thing, if what I think comes true: you see, all the talks about Darth Nul and her ability to see the Force and all the hidden potential in everyone, combined with that cathar girl we`ve met on Ord Manetel, who could all of a sudden use the Force as well as fire a gun... I`d think, that story-wise, Heta will be able to build this machine of hers, and it will most likely work as the Mass Effect 3 Crucible: the mighty wave across the galaxy, that 'unlocks' everyone`s hidden Force Powers or other skills. Thus it may give us actual ability to make cross-classes, using both Tech and Force powers, different weapons, eventually and ultimately making our on unique characters and builds. It all fits in their early statements on 'playing the way you want'. That said, I believe the devs will still leave 'pure' classes as they are - for PVP and other content, hence they will surely be stronger than the mixed ones, simply by having rotations and built-in bonuses. So you could chose to create the old-style character, or the 'awakened' one. And all the imbalance it might bring will easily be smoothed out by the facts that as I`ve said pure classes would still be better or the new, mixed ones, or would simply not be alllowed into PVP. To my mind, that would be very good idea and it will hook more players to the game, be it not having new content, but letting us almost endlessly create our own unique builds everyone`s been asking for a decade: like a Jedi with a gun, or a melee Tech class and whatnot. Anyways, I sure hope I`m right - and I`m already gathering cool armor and weapons for my (possible) future chars. Let me know, what you think, and once again - thank you for all your wonderful content. Youar Academy series is really well done and is pure joy to watch. )
Hey, question for you guy when it comes to gearing or making credits, is crafting worth it in this game? I’m a new player basically, have not played in years.
Got to love swtor's idea of spring, which is at best late spring/early summer. Also not blown away by anything we're getting, the only thing I was interested in requires getting a character through the really boring recent game story (i kind of checked out after slogging through manan and the awful gameplay of fighting the same enemy over and over and over again with zero variety). And then having to do things on the new dailies. I'll probably try the new event but I doubt it's something I'll come back to much. Although if it's not a nightsister themed Halloween event I doubt I'll be that interested. It also doesn't help that the current dantooine event is the only one I've never completed and thus just seems like more of the same rewards wise. New pvp rewards are disappointing yet again, guess I'll just stick to the old ranked ones, cause the new rewards are just boring (especially in comparison). I don't think I've ever finished a pvp season cause it's just not worth the effort. Nightlife wise, meh, I guess the 9ne new reward is cool but we'll probably just keep getting that mountbwe all have 100 of again (I literally throw them away now and i wish they'd either remove them or lower the drop rate). Story wise I'm glad that it's kind of moving forward I guess. I just wished that they had done one or the other, what we have just feels like a m8x of three completely different ideas ands as such none of them have been properly explored or focused on. I guess the graphics thing is good but I always put graphics last over gameplay, story and features. Not the worst update but since 7.0 I've found everything disappointing and I'm starting to no longer hopebthe game will get back to it's good updates and just feel meh about every new update and just keep doing the stuff I normally do 8n the game.
man i hate to say it, but i hope the mando story wraps up quickly. i just want to progress Malgus' storyline since he's by far the most interesting dude we got left
@livingthevoidlife9396 I think that's my big problem with it, they set up malgus (all the way back in jedi under seige), advertised the new story about revolving around malgus and then randomly sidelined him for a B plot story with boring characters (I'm guessing cause the mandalorian show was popular so they bumped their mando subplot up to full story). The things going on with malgus are far more interesting and linked more with the general state of the galaxy, instead we're getting involved in a mandalorian civil war that takes forever to actually start amd resolve.
@livingthevoidlife9396 I also wouldn't mind if they picked up the vaylin story at some point. That's possibly one more interesting character they could use but instead we have one bland mandalorians.
@@charlestownsend9280 god damn, i forgot about Vaylin for a hot minute now, I guess the last time we saw her was the Tenebrae fight, right? Also not a huge fan of Shae's temper tantrums and my Dark Council member Inqui bumbling through the galaxy like an absolute moron, although that's more an issue with the recent writing I got.
Agreed, they screwed us that writing. No way would a dark side inq let Shae slide for that mouth. At the very least a hot of force lightning to remind her of her place. If I can't turn Sahar or shock the hell out of Shae I'll be so done with the shitty ass writing that I might quit after 13 yrs.
after the inital origin stories do those events have any effect on the future releases in dlc content or what not or are they just self contain story? also could be the same question the post origin story the only thing that matters is light side/dark side or does empire/republic side matter?
Sounds like the game is going strong. Very nice to hear. Recently lost a large chunk of my characters in Rift when they merged older servers, but didn't forcibly move characters. If you didn't transfer them manually, they weren't moved. Learned about the mergers a few weeks after they actually concluded. RIP my Rift experience. Gamigo did something similar with Archeage, and again lost my characters there. I suppose it's the inevitable end of all MMOs, but still feels incredibly bad when it happens.
Thank you for the in-depth update. I don't know if I'm dreading or looking forward to training my basilisk, and especially doing it over multiple characters.
Pies. farming. comp training....ALL to cover lack of real content. How long will the story update be? Im guessin less than an hour. Gettin harder and harder to justifiy continuing a sub. Is this SWTOR or WOW??
It's been a bit since I played ALL the early game for the different factions/classes, is Nemro still around? SPOILERS- I know Fathra is killed during Chapter 3 of the Agent Story.
SPOILERS AHEAD in skadge's companion story, he mentions he's going to assassinate a hutt he used to work for, and in doc's companion story, he mentions nemro's assassination
I played Farmville back in the day. I remember when Zynga said they were closing it, I took all my hay squares and spelled out in really big letters, F*CK YOU ZYNGA! Good times..lololol
imagine being a VA who made first recordings of the same character in like 2008 and still doing it in 2024 oof
right it's kinda of crazy! 13+ years later
I’d love that tbh
Why is that bad? That person has had steady voice acting work for over a decade probably, and you think youre better than them because you work in an office? wtf? youre a loser gamer like the rest of us
South Park is a good example of this. Even in the French version we still have the same old voice actors.
Hey! That's money! Many actors would dream for that kind of consistent demand.
The new companion system looks really fun! One of the reasons I love HK-51 as a companion is that he feels earned, and I can only think B3-S1 is going to feel even more so
It would be way more rewarding if these type of "earned" companions were better then any free companions. Like legendary implants that have a special buff. That would make me care about companions.
Lots of love to all the SWTOR players out there!
I was always wondering why Trooper, Smuggler, Agent, Bounty hunter didn't introduced a protege or Jedi or Sith classes didn't introduced a new padawan for player. It seems Sahar will fill that gap.
I called it! I knew we would get a mini basilisk war droid as a companion. My mando characters will love our new little buddy!
I thought we would be getting a basilisk mount, boy was I wrong lol!
@Swtorista well now if you do have that basilisk mount from the cartel market you can place it next to the mini one for an adorable part of a stronghold lol
zoom or bust. Don't care how much it costs well worth it.
Be cool to see Major Anri Return
Unrelated but I just learned that the Jedi guardian is voiced by David Hayter so that’s pretty sweet.
I am impressed that same voice actors are on the roll. :)
still no new customizations for twi'leks or zabraks 💀
Finally jumped back in after 8yr hiatus to the Shae Viz APAC server. I feel like a newbie, so much has been changed since I last played.
Bored, bored, bored and bored. Oh look another companion like we don't have far to meny already.
No new fp's and no new ops at point the games just not worth the sub.
Many thanx for the updates.. As a long time swtor player who 'fell to the darkside' for a few years I recently returned and was feeling a little lost in anything except story (which is and has always been my main content anyway) But watching this and your other videos has helped me to fill in the blanks knowledge wise..
I dropped off the story a little after the start of the 'Return of Malgus' arc as felt burned out from non stop playing and fell into things like ESO during that time instead but it never had that one thing i craved from SWTOR which was the feeling you were in a story.. needless to say coming back to swtor older and now wiser is quite refreshing, even if a little like playing catch up sometimes on the various classes.. Needless to say after doing the 4th full run of the same story regardless of Imperial or Republic it has slowed things But it actually feels good to be back in this universe again despite what troubles the makers have had and despite a few questionable game choices like the removal of voice acting at places in place of those dialogue pickers.. I missed the reason they did that when looking what was new..
Not sure why so many have said that swtor is over, doomed etc etc because as far as i can tell from this video and from my own return experiences, The game feels very much alive and as enjoyable as ever even if a slight step down from what we had during KOTFE which i dont think will ever be beaten..
Looks like I'll be returning for the summer once more! I just wish they wouldn't ALWAYS butcher CM items based on concept art.
You think SWTOR have brighter future now? I wish it could get such a huge updates like years ago however its not possible with Broadsword. SWTOR is my last resort after Disney butchered whole franchise and its hard to see it slowly slowing down... :/
If I wanted to play WoW, I will play WoW. StarWars fans are story driven. Easter egg hunts and seasonal "missions" (Minus Life Day) do not interest us. I'm not attacking you. I just hope we do not continue on this path. This is my opinion, I do not speak for everyone.
Yeah and wow didn't have voice acting at the beginning now it dose. Old Republic is the opposite
listening all these updates I regret every cent I put to the game :)
you're awesome Swtorita!
i love you dedication and your love for the game.
its contagious! =)
from just a casual player.....all the best!
cheers
Just returning to the game, appreciate all the work you’re doing to keep SWTOR alive!
After 7.3, Voss became super laggy for me, as well as looking worse. If that happens to Hutta too then I'm done.
the constantly need to redo our gear again and again, it'll happen again in the future, killed the game for me after last years update with the mandalorians. i just cant do it anymore.
This is getting crazy. They need to update the character models across the board.
they need to return the focus to the player character and the galactic war not these terrible side characters.
9:25 is that new hair too? If so, it looks good. We need more character customization.
I hope the Hidden Chain storyline ends soon.
As long as we don’t end up on Voss again.
Imagine defeating the Emperor, just to have 3 Voss mystics tell you to sweep a cantina so that they can tell you about a threat to the galaxy…and then they still tell you nothing.
Can someone helped me with the launcher problem it says “ an error has occurred “
Im looking the video in background and i cant stop thinking... Why they made a 3d model like Sa'har, and then not reworking the shit modeling of a 20 years old game of the player character XD. Its like have two games in one, one old and the other new XD
I think it is crazy that this game still gets updates even though it has been over 10 years since it came out.
All MMO's continue to be updated. The original Final Fantast MMO is twice that age. Not even remotely 'crazy' as it's normal for the genre. FFXIV is expected to last 30 years.
So let me get this straight
Still no CO-OP enhancement for the entire game's story
Still no graphic engine upgrades, just useless "modernisation" AKA lazy, turtle pace remake of visuals in very specific areas neglected for a decade
Still no increase in story content per release which has become nothing more than a handful of short and annoying missions with a few new sets and new raid per "major update"
Lame as hell looks like the game is still shit for now
That new studio handling business seems to not have changed anything at all
We need to go back to 2016 where we getting 1 chapter a month
I just want an legacy title for Imperial AND Republic Squad Commander...I had to play for hours with that Houk who's name doesn't deserve to be remembered.
I found that the content that our character doesn't voice act is very boring honestly. I wish they wouldn't have done that.
I don't mind if there's no voice for mundane quests, but I draw the line when they don't voice story related content.
The new companion pet looks cool. I need to get to that part of the story to so I can start it.
Is everything meant to be green?
What to expect? More disappointment.
Hater alert ⚠️
Thanks for the video. I don't use social media much, but If I could suggest any easy changes to SWTOR that could mean a world of difference I would recommend two things. 1) Let us drag companion summoning onto our toolbar or choose a "favorites" "summon random favorite" with an ability for that in our legacy we can put on our toolbar. Looking through the 500 companions we have is awful. 2) This is a graphical addition WoW has. When in raids or pvp have a separate graphic settings available. I turn shadows off when I pvp to get much higher performance and others with more limited setups even have to turn shaders down, vegetation etc. I think both these easy to implement options would be a huge quality of life increase.
What class would you guys say Sa'har best fits into? Sage or Guardian?
Probably guardian
As a pvper adding adrenals and medpacs to the pvp reward track is a huge "F U we dont care about adding actual rewards". Like really? I have 3000 adrenals and medpacs in my inventory.
Garbage story line.
SWTOR is nothing without the Emperor.
SWTOR is nothing without Marr.
SWTOR is nothing without Revan.
SWTOR is nothing without Satele.
SWTOR is nothing without ANY OF THE GOATS.
Rando characters, terrible character design, unoriginal worlds, NEEDS MORE MALGUS DESPERATELY.
Desperately needs PvP updates, new modes, new maps, select the mode you want to play, HUTTBALL IS GARBAGE.
Desperately needs NEW UI.
Could use NEW CLASSES.
Could use NEW MOVES FOR EXISTING CLASSES / REWORKS (DONT TOUCH JUGG OR ASSASSIN THEY ARE PERFECT).
Could use RANKED PVP. Why remove it? If it's toxic to you, don't play it. Let the people who enjoy it play it. It's not for you if you get easily enraged by what a rando on the internet has to say. Boohoo, a pity. Move on SHMUCK or sit down and GIT GUD. You think the Souls community will kiss you on the hand and say it's ok bb everyone loses. NO. THIS IS WAR. SITH VS JEDI.

Legends. Only thing that will end up becoming canon is that Kotor remake if it doesn’t end up cancelled of course.
It hurts me to see how little content we get compared to an mmo like ESO. I know swtor doesn’t have as big of a player count as other mmo’s but cmon
I’ve been playing since 2012. There were loads of players back then but ever since they introduced the option of switching servers, they lost a shit ton of loyal long term players due to all the restrictions posed and dead economy in the APAC server. It was really the foolishness of BioWare who caused many to permanently quit.
The only reason I’m still playing is cuz I didn’t switch servers so the S.A server still has a somewhat healthy economy, just that prices on the GTN have shot up sky high cuz not many ppl remaining compared to its golden years.
Long gone are the days of good class, even shared, stories. Long gone are the days people gave a shit.
i am a people and i give a shit
I still love the game but I've checked out of the new story content and pvp. And if I'm honest I've stopped getting excited for updates, cause they're never that amazing.
I'm a solo story player and the story is still awesome. It's only annoying having to wait ages for a small amount of new story added. But again that due to people complaining about a long wait for a big chunk of story so they can't win either way
Yeah i loved class story. It was so unique for each class now it doesn't even matter what class you play :/
@@jedibateman9452 yeah the story is great, i recently completely finished all the available story on my sith warrior and i admit i've definitely been impatient for it, i loved working with the mandalorians
Headwear / robes should have options to toggle their positions. Cannot wait to tempt the wayward Twilek just like I did with Jaesa 😜
After seeing all the cool Mandalorian armours from the cartel market I am back to the game. Need to make a Twi Lek mando now xD
Daaaamn I get to have a Basilik Doggie, I'll have to save up again for subscription
I am curious if the story is going to progress finally with us confronting darth malgus and beating him but that’s just my opinion.
I'm still here begging for an Eopie. I'm tired of their modern show/story stuff with nothing from the classics. So tired that I'm considered unsubbing after the update. Never thought I'd want to do that. 😞You'd think TPM anniversary would've inspired them but noooo. I do like the basilk though. And I hope those dailies are finally available to all characters, not just end game.
Just redownloaded an hour ago, thanks for the info!
what is it going to take to finally kill that roach Malgus!?
Here's hoping Broadsword are working towards a big graphical update. The vanilla character models are looking way out of date and inconsistent against the new story npc characters. It's been happening since KotET with newer characters looking a lot more detailed in realism. And now with Sa'har, compare her to Vette and they look like they're from different universes. If say Update 8.0 gives us character models update Broadsword will have put they own stamp on the game in a big way.
Wonderful!! Can't wait for all this cool new stuff to do! I have been speeding through reputations and datacrons so this was perfect timing!
Very little gameplay content.
Is the Spring Festival interfering with the Dantooine Culinarian achievement because I'm having problems collecting two items that are supposedly only available during peacetime.
The old hutta looked way better lol
I can't help but continuously making smuggler characters, and playing them till they get their ship but. And just keep play multi player missions.
Hi. I'm a beginner, I chose a smuggler (mercenary). However, I cannot use the shelters that are assigned to the F button. Please tell me what to do?
Everything still looks like plastic. Why is is so hard after 13+ years to work on the engine and make everything look better?
Ty, Swtorista, for blocking me on X for my first comment ever and that i did only to answer what you asked. 👍
these main storylines aren’t FOMO’d for each update like Destiny, i hope?
Once you finish tier 10 Bessie is opened up for all your characters on your account, not just on legacy, just pay a 1 time 10 cartel coin fee.
It took me about 7 weeks. She loves military gifts to get her to 50 influence.
DPS is at least as good as Shae and Orbital Strike is her AOE.
It will take 3 weeks to finish tier 11 and you get a custom skin for her.
Rank 11 is crazy! I JUST finished recording a guide for bessie and it is 30 minutes long LOL
10 mins of story… no new ops in 2 years game is a glorified cash shop now. Sad
Hope they close the servers and put me out of my misery.
The story ended after the emperor was defeated, Revan and the exiles souls are at peace. I’d suggest they retire it too. It’s been real but it was dead before BioWare gave up on it altogether. That said, I’d love the game to be translated to a single player experience for preservation purposes some day. Finally get that KOTOR 3 on consoles for those who missed the experience.
so malgus flashpoint is finally fixed ?
1 year between each update is crazy tho, not even expansion but story update. by the time each update comes, i've forgotten what happened in the last one.
This is cute and all, but if they really want to do something for pvp:
1. New warzone
2. New arena
3. Bring back the leaderbord!!!!
You basically have to beg people to enter pvp anymore (outside of some very dedicated guilds).
It's annoying there's now no voice acting for the main story from your character
How long is the new story? is it worth reupping my sub?
I'm 4th
I'm still dying for them to FINALLY add some new Zabrak character customization options... x-x
How is there no crew skill changes? Crew skills are going on 2 years now with no updates. Why have they abandoned it?
late reply - my guess is they are trying to finish the GTN changes first.
Thank you very much for the video, Swtorista: it`s informative, interesting, and on the personal note - I really like your voice. )
Okay, now I have a few thoughts on the future of our favorite game, please let me know what you think as well. As I see it, the 'hints' the devs said they`d been leaving clearly lead us towards the life support SWTOR is going to get put on. But, it might actually be a good thing, if what I think comes true: you see, all the talks about Darth Nul and her ability to see the Force and all the hidden potential in everyone, combined with that cathar girl we`ve met on Ord Manetel, who could all of a sudden use the Force as well as fire a gun...
I`d think, that story-wise, Heta will be able to build this machine of hers, and it will most likely work as the Mass Effect 3 Crucible: the mighty wave across the galaxy, that 'unlocks' everyone`s hidden Force Powers or other skills. Thus it may give us actual ability to make cross-classes, using both Tech and Force powers, different weapons, eventually and ultimately making our on unique characters and builds. It all fits in their early statements on 'playing the way you want'.
That said, I believe the devs will still leave 'pure' classes as they are - for PVP and other content, hence they will surely be stronger than the mixed ones, simply by having rotations and built-in bonuses. So you could chose to create the old-style character, or the 'awakened' one. And all the imbalance it might bring will easily be smoothed out by the facts that as I`ve said pure classes would still be better or the new, mixed ones, or would simply not be alllowed into PVP.
To my mind, that would be very good idea and it will hook more players to the game, be it not having new content, but letting us almost endlessly create our own unique builds everyone`s been asking for a decade: like a Jedi with a gun, or a melee Tech class and whatnot.
Anyways, I sure hope I`m right - and I`m already gathering cool armor and weapons for my (possible) future chars. Let me know, what you think, and once again - thank you for all your wonderful content. Youar Academy series is really well done and is pure joy to watch. )
The dark side calls
I want darth vindican's armor released...
Can we PLEASE, for the love of the Force have more STORAGE!! Just saying 😊
Hey, question for you guy when it comes to gearing or making credits, is crafting worth it in this game? I’m a new player basically, have not played in years.
My Mandalore The Ultimate costume and Basilisk droid companion combo bout to go crazy
Can you make me a live-action version of the Old Republic Trooper?
Who was in beta? Has founder title 🎉
Got to love swtor's idea of spring, which is at best late spring/early summer.
Also not blown away by anything we're getting, the only thing I was interested in requires getting a character through the really boring recent game story (i kind of checked out after slogging through manan and the awful gameplay of fighting the same enemy over and over and over again with zero variety). And then having to do things on the new dailies.
I'll probably try the new event but I doubt it's something I'll come back to much. Although if it's not a nightsister themed Halloween event I doubt I'll be that interested. It also doesn't help that the current dantooine event is the only one I've never completed and thus just seems like more of the same rewards wise.
New pvp rewards are disappointing yet again, guess I'll just stick to the old ranked ones, cause the new rewards are just boring (especially in comparison). I don't think I've ever finished a pvp season cause it's just not worth the effort.
Nightlife wise, meh, I guess the 9ne new reward is cool but we'll probably just keep getting that mountbwe all have 100 of again (I literally throw them away now and i wish they'd either remove them or lower the drop rate).
Story wise I'm glad that it's kind of moving forward I guess. I just wished that they had done one or the other, what we have just feels like a m8x of three completely different ideas ands as such none of them have been properly explored or focused on.
I guess the graphics thing is good but I always put graphics last over gameplay, story and features.
Not the worst update but since 7.0 I've found everything disappointing and I'm starting to no longer hopebthe game will get back to it's good updates and just feel meh about every new update and just keep doing the stuff I normally do 8n the game.
man i hate to say it, but i hope the mando story wraps up quickly. i just want to progress Malgus' storyline since he's by far the most interesting dude we got left
@livingthevoidlife9396 I think that's my big problem with it, they set up malgus (all the way back in jedi under seige), advertised the new story about revolving around malgus and then randomly sidelined him for a B plot story with boring characters (I'm guessing cause the mandalorian show was popular so they bumped their mando subplot up to full story). The things going on with malgus are far more interesting and linked more with the general state of the galaxy, instead we're getting involved in a mandalorian civil war that takes forever to actually start amd resolve.
@livingthevoidlife9396 I also wouldn't mind if they picked up the vaylin story at some point. That's possibly one more interesting character they could use but instead we have one bland mandalorians.
@@charlestownsend9280 god damn, i forgot about Vaylin for a hot minute now, I guess the last time we saw her was the Tenebrae fight, right? Also not a huge fan of Shae's temper tantrums and my Dark Council member Inqui bumbling through the galaxy like an absolute moron, although that's more an issue with the recent writing I got.
Agreed, they screwed us that writing. No way would a dark side inq let Shae slide for that mouth. At the very least a hot of force lightning to remind her of her place. If I can't turn Sahar or shock the hell out of Shae I'll be so done with the shitty ass writing that I might quit after 13 yrs.
Is there more story quest that happens after this?
Dam I miss this game not played for like a year and half cuz my PC can’t run it anymore.
after the inital origin stories do those events have any effect on the future releases in dlc content or what not or are they just self contain story? also could be the same question the post origin story the only thing that matters is light side/dark side or does empire/republic side matter?
'Rista: As always, your videos (and guides) are great. Thank you for this succinct breakdown.
can I make her a sith? Always like sith warrior and inquisitor story line
????? this is the game in 2024?????
Looks like it did back in 2012.
Time for me to come back to this game since stopping in 2014.
Sounds like the game is going strong. Very nice to hear.
Recently lost a large chunk of my characters in Rift when they merged older servers, but didn't forcibly move characters. If you didn't transfer them manually, they weren't moved. Learned about the mergers a few weeks after they actually concluded. RIP my Rift experience. Gamigo did something similar with Archeage, and again lost my characters there. I suppose it's the inevitable end of all MMOs, but still feels incredibly bad when it happens.
Game died after killing owpvp
I miss open world PvP soooo much.
Been thinking of getting back into it. Are there anyplans on it ending soon?
Thank you for the in-depth update. I don't know if I'm dreading or looking forward to training my basilisk, and especially doing it over multiple characters.
"will include additional Medpak and Adrenals; gross" lol
And when do i come in all of this?
These graphics are sooooo dated..
Few years ago I’ve finished with great effort a Makeb’s story on my main. I have no way to avoid story spoilers in this game. 😂
Makeb is top tier story for Imperial side
Pies. farming. comp training....ALL to cover lack of real content. How long will the story update be? Im guessin less than an hour. Gettin harder and harder to justifiy continuing a sub. Is this SWTOR or WOW??
Thanks for all your work, Swtorista.
at 9:47 does anyone know what this chest piece is? from that distance it reminds me a lot of Anakin's clone wars gear!
Yes, its from the latest galactic seasons. Don't remember it's exact name, builder something
how short is it gonna be? lol
Legacy of the Who TF Knows
dead game quit now
It's been a bit since I played ALL the early game for the different factions/classes, is Nemro still around? SPOILERS- I know Fathra is killed during Chapter 3 of the Agent Story.
SPOILERS AHEAD
in skadge's companion story, he mentions he's going to assassinate a hutt he used to work for, and in doc's companion story, he mentions nemro's assassination
@@whisperze Okay, why like I said, it's been a while lol. Thanks for clearing that up
So SWTOR has turned into a kind of The Sims and Farmville...
I played Farmville back in the day. I remember when Zynga said they were closing it, I took all my hay squares and spelled out in really big letters, F*CK YOU ZYNGA! Good times..lololol
Finally they update the story.
