Bioware has revealed that Hutta, the home world of the Hutts, will be included in Star Wars: The Old Republic's roster of planets.

In Huttese, the name translates into “Glorious Jewel”, and the planet more commonly called Nal Hutta is considered a paradise to the gluttonous tastes of the Hutts. To anyone else, though, the planet is a living nightmare—a disgusting and dangerous place to visit, and an unthinkable place to live. Current Underworld slang has shortened the name to a simple ‘Hutta’—a place where more civilized people threaten to send their children if they misbehave.

Before the creation of the Republic, Hutta was controlled by the native Evocii, a relatively primitive race who made the mistake of engaging in extensive business deals with the Hutts, ignoring rumors of their legendary greed. Centuries later, the Evocii realized their mistake too late—their entire civilization was mortgaged. When the Hutts’ home-world of Varl later became polluted and uninhabitable, the Hutts collected on the Evocii’s debts, becoming rulers of the planet.

Sounds pretty cool. I wonder how many planets there will be? Hopefully a bunch, and hopefully they are full explorable with no invisible walls.

Tried: LotR, CoH, AoC, WAR, Jumpgate Classic
Played: SWG, Guild Wars, WoW
Playing: Eve Online, Counter-strike
Loved: Star Wars Galaxies
Waiting for: Earthrise, Guild Wars 2, anything sandbox.

They're an error in the topic. It's not the home world of the Hutt, it's their favorite world. «When the Hutts’ home-world of Varl later became polluted and uninhabitable, the Hutts collected on the Evocii’s debts, becoming rulers of the planet.»

The Hutt homeplanet was Varl.

It said that, actually.

The place looks amazingly cool. I sense a great disturbance of more goodness headed our way.

Looks awesome, but there is a funny, awkward phrase there:

"are seen as expendable fodder in the Hutts’ bloated, wormlike eyes."

Considering worms don't have eyes, I found it funy... anyways

...

yeah

No compromise, even in the face of Armageddon.

I think that planet looks pretty cool designed. I'd love to explore such scum-filled places and do some villainy, heh. I really like the way this game is shaping up.

In a world of disappointing MMOs I’m really hoping this one meets expectations.

I loved the KOTOR stuff and so did my son. We are both looking forward to this being released.
