PS. stop letting your mommy's/GF/wives dress you or you will never have good tastes.

Good job. You manage to debunk all of the naysayers with your perfectly dry, trite phraseology, and then you add the witty invective at the end, insulting them all, or at least trying to. I think you deserve a gold star for your powers of persuasion. Well done, indeed!

Meh...nothing new here.   Same old same old.   Game play looks no different than say WoW.   Click on target, spam hotkeys until target is dead.   Why would it take a lightsaber weilding Jedi so many hits to kill that one creature?  

::yawn::

What do people expect, something revolutionary every 5 years in gameplay?, no. It will have good gameplay and an Epic story. No one can touch Bioware in story rpgs.

That video shows nothing about how each character is designed to take on multiple enemies (4+) Most of the gameplay shown was released in Early Fall 2008 aswell.

Not impressed. Looks like Star Wars for the SW:Clone Wars cartoon kids, but not for adult old school fans.

Many years ago Lucas said that he basicly wanted to give the Star Wars universe a "used and worn out" look.

Today all that is left is commercial, colorfull pop-culture shit for the ADHD generation.

 

Well, if he really said that, I think Lucas failed himself in the latest movies. They all look more sterile than a hospital.

However, I do like the art direction in this game. It is unique and not going to be outdated quickly. I just hope that the gameplay is good.

I dunno alot of Biowares games have had real bad storylines and scripts with very bad voice acting with all the weird pauses. Also Bioware have never been good with level design or animation as seen in Mass Effect and their characters which animate like cardboard. Bioware can make bad games, Jade Empire, Mass Effect and Sonic so they arn't untouchable. Remember Lucas Arts are one of the worst out there and I don't think they've done anything good since the 90's and even then that was mainly Tim.

My main problem i have with the footage though is the animations are poor and so are the character models. The armour/clothes design is really bad and I'm not too fond on the over sized weapons too. I'm gonna wait to pass judgement and hope they change it but if the game has them human character models are launch then I wont bother playing.

I think Blizzard are the only developer who have ever created a story that made me interested in finishing. Starcraft, Warcraft 3 and diablo 2.

True.  That footage looks early compared to the demo at E3.  Things seem more polished and the combat looked really fun.  I thought (for the quest they showed) that the story line was interesting and pretty well developed.  Also, the little voice acting we saw was pretty good for an mmo (so far).  As with the rest of you, I'll reserve judgement till I play it, but so far the game is looking great to me...

I think the same, looks like WoW with a Kiddy SW theme.

That's pretty much what MMO combat has always been.

Don't get me wrong, I'd love a Mass Effect pseudo-FPS ARPG style combat mechanic in an MMO and I'm sure it'll happen eventually, (and hopefully revolutionise the genre) but we're not going to see it done well in the next year or two.

One day... it's the perfect combat system for a Sci-Fi MMO...

Manual aiming, no melee bullsh!t except for the good old "rifle butt to the face" (I'm sorry this is the future, no one would be retarded enough to be a Teras Kasi artist and run at someone with a blaster. I could kill a Teras Kasi master with a blaster.)

But RPG skills effecting your damage, overheating, accuracy degredation... even using Mods to change damage types on the fly like they are doing for ME 2... different armor classes with mods... "magic" powers in the form of Biotics, get rid of the tank/healer/dps trinity and gimme MMO combat about cover and positioning and tactics not hit points and CC.

No BS stealth mechanics, no BS healers who can magically repair that gaping hole in your chest...

GOD Mass Effect would be perfect for a MMO... WHY BIOWARE WHY?!?!?

Until they do release further details about the 'raiding', 'grouping', 'crafting' and 'player-run economy', I think many of us agree with you. What they've shown so far - and said - presages a very simple but colourful game for a young, not too bright audience. I'm surprised they aren't bringing it out for a console.

dont give them idea's or we'll end up with this one being a game released on the Wii only...  or maybe it will be

I just wanted to say I liked the video and I wanted to thank the OP for posting it!

It's probably the closest feeling to playing the game we'll see for a while :(
