Over the last couple of days I have had the opportunity to spend a bit of time in SWTOR. This game is fantastic! I have enjoyed nearly everything about the game thus far. The storyline, graphics, the sound and nearly everything else are amazing. SWTOR is a refreshing take on the MMO experience.
Before I get too far into this article let me clarify, the game is great no doubt but I am not saying it is perfect. There are some small hiccups occasionally and there are a few rough edges but overall SWTOR is a stand out.
SWTOR – My Sith Warrior Juggernaut
At this point I have decided that I will make the Sith Warrior my “main” toon. It would be a lie to say that I am not dying to roll another toon or two just to experience those story lines as well. Let me diverge here for a second. The three buddies that I play with have all graciously decided that they would create a toon they would keep around my level. I was flattered until I realized that all of them have 3-4 toons all going at the same time. It seems that all three of them have enjoyed the lower levels so much they want to experience them from just about very perspective they can. When was the last time you heard that about the lower levels in an MMO?
While playing over the past few days I have noticed that players seem to be dividing into two styles of play. There are those grizzled MMO players who are in a hurry to get to the “end game”. These guys and gals are doing everything in their power to level as quickly as possible. This camp finds the quest cuts scenes t be a huge “waste of time” and they skip everything that they can.
The other camp are those like me who think the story and character development that happen as you level is extremely entertaining. I have never had this much fun during the leveling process in any other MMO I have played. NEVER. I can honestly say that getting to level 50 is the furthest thing on my mind right now. I want to see everything. Hell I just got my ship!
I feel kind of bad for those players who are so ingrained into the WoW style of game play that they miss the whole point of the SWTOR leveling process. This game is meant to be enjoyed from the very first minute that you log in. It is an experience, not just a game. It is like playing a role inside of a Star Wars movie. I know that for myself and the 3 others I am playing with this is exactly how we feel.
SWTOR – LFM
As we play it is slowly becoming apparent we will need another player or two in our guild. We are doing just fine right now but once we get into raiding we will most likely need one or two more to pull it off. This is a call to a few of you who have played with us in the past or one or two of you who might be interested in joining us for the ride.

Whats up Kauz!
I am a Sith Warrior Jugg Immortal specced. I agree with your posting, the game is an absolute blast and I did take my time and have to say, The Sith Warrior Story is insane. I would roll another warrior just to see it again.
I hit level 50 about a week and a half ago by no means fast. Besides quite a few bugs in the game, I am very much enjoying it. Tanking the Hardmode dungeons has been way too much fun, and of course I always enjoyed pvp and have been having a blast playing.
Heya Cor good to hear from you. I forgot you were going to play SWTOR. Isn’t it strange that we both chose Sith Warrior Jugg?
Crazy.

Okay so I have been blamed for, well everything, for over 10 years. For once the blame is accurate.
Great minds think alike Kauz,
Tanked Eternity Vault last night, Was fun. Only normal mode but was a fun new challenge.
