TOR is both, and you have no option for that so your poll is already fail.

 Wont matter now. And it really wont  matter after they make a ton of money on the game either. My vote ... skill based. But like most people ... Ill play it.

Nope, the class based people have it.

TOR needs to be like WoW!

Personally I prefer a blend, one of the reasons I like the original SWG system.

Although I'd prefer a slightly more skill based blend on it. Where each class has a set of sills they can learn for little cost, and the further away a skill was the more it cost to learn.

QFE, to clarify my stance I will just say. I loved SWG, I loved the skill based progression of old. That does not mean another type of system will detract from any fun I might have. If the game is as good as it seems it might be with what info has become available. It really makes no difference what type of progression they use.

The OP is nothing more than a bitter SWG vet that doesn't have anything better to do than spend his days lamenting the loss of his game. So sad and not in an unhappy way...

If you're going to stick it out there, don't be afraid if you get it cut off.

I'd much rather see a skill based game, but I will still give it a try.  I mean it is Bioware for God's sake!  More importantly it is Star Wars!  I think they have the opportunity to make something special, even if they don't go the sandbox, skill based route.
