One of the best universes in Sci-Fi history. Use of Jedi and combat balance keep this MMORPG from being great.
However, given the time frame this game takes place.. the Jedi were all but wiped out... but in this game... EVERYONE is a Jedi. It just makes absolutely no sense, and ruins the combat balance of the game. Because there's almost no point in pursuing any other profession.
Another problem was at the time I played.. the rebels outnumbered the empire almost 3:1. In the timeframe of this universe.. the empire ruled the galaxy and were feared. Not so much here. That struggle has been all but fogotten now behind the light vs. dark side Jedi.
It reminds me alot of what has happened in the Matrix Online. A great universe and struggle... pretty much ruined by the MMORPG mechanics and over-zealous developers trying to make money.
If you are a star-wars fan, I recommend just to go see all of the movie locations, and just breathe it in, but long term this game really dissapointed.
