It's almost unbelievable. SOE has all but completely ruined this game. They took out what used to be a Star Wars look and feel, and added in a ton of Jedi, and a sad escuse for third person shooter controls.

This game had 34 professions in it. All of which were fun to play, and had their own unique skills that could help players. SWG now has a grand total of 9 unbalanced, unplayable professions that, supposedly, add to the Star
Wars feel. The Trader profession, which is the crafter, is nearly useless.

There was a time when I was telling all my friends about how great and awesome this game was. There was a time when you actually had to do something to be a Jedi. And before any goes off saying I'm an Elder Jedi whiner, I never made Jedi, I was busy working on it before SOE threw this pile of garbage into the mix.

At one time, I hated SWG because it was grind. I now miss that grind more than anything. I miss the 34 professions. I miss the balance. I miss the game called Star Wars Galaxies.
