Trying a SOE game? Advice: have very low expectations or just forget it

Take a look here, this thread gives somewhat of a impression of what players think of the game today 

Some comments might be overracted but overall the opinions are right-on

spoiler: most think much has to be done

You must be either retarded or a fanboi.

well as long as the economic in this game is messed up, there is no reason for players like me to return to the game.

A few examples:

- everyone is running arrond in full set of mandalorian armor

- jetpacks for everyone

- players got hundrets of milions of credits

- nobody buys products from your business, simply because the populaton is too low or there is no need to buy crafters items, since everything you loot got better stats

the inflation in this game is simply terrible...

and what about asthetics or diversity ? the clothes/ armors you wear look so damn ugly, the colors are ugly and they dont fit.

asthetics and diversity are only 2 of the complex elements taken away with the NGE.

And as someone once said: "NGE - Star Wars Galaxies is like colorizing shit to pink, it looks nice, but underneath the color its still shit.."

"You must be either retarded or a fanboi..."

Regardless of what the ratings may be for SWG today the game will never be what it used to be, there is no one around anymore and economy is down to crap. Those were very important to SWG and now they are down to crap.

Uhm..it's called refugee because they don't play anymore.Those that do "log in" now and then only do it to get their "right" and claim the game is shit because it isn't what they used to play.A refugee can not say how the game is today just like i can't since i haven't played for a month or 4.

 Well uh, vets are responding in that thread as well so overall, it gives a wider view on the game right now
