game variety

April 10, 2006

Verified Purchase

Star Wars galaxies has far more variety to the game than other MMO's I have tried. Quests, space flight, crafting, pvp, and the best player housing I've seen in an MMO game.

You can have your character's image redone after entering the game world which is different as almost all other games set your character's looks permanently after character creation.

Of all the MMO's SWG is the one that gives the most for me to do in game.

Game card or game?

March 7, 2006

Verified Purchase

Well the game is just great. I've been playing since the beginning. But if you meant the game card, that's awesome too because sometimes I get them well in advance even if I pay for free shipping. Love the shipping. Great job!

Good Game

September 27, 2006

What happened to the Game - Star Wars Galaxies is probably one of, if no the most, entertaining MMO on the market right now. Contrary to what most of the reviews on here say, this game is not horrible mindless grinding with indignant players, who don't care a thing about enjoying the game. However, I have played this game since June of 2004 (I know this is not since the beta), and it has massively changed from its original format. When I started this game, the profession system was incredibly diverse, allowing a person to make a character to suite their playing style perfectly, but due to easily swayed Dev's and a lot of unfounded whining (most likely from the same people who are now giving it bad reviews now, or at least similar to these folks), the game was made horribly unbalanced. Fully leveled Jedi knights could be horribly wiped out by most of the other melee fighting classes, with no problem. Finally, the Devs realized that the game could not be fixed from its current state of buggered up, so they wiped it and started new. This time the classes are a bit more confined, but never the less they are just as fun.

What this means for the game - The Classes are much more confined, so this means you can't have a crafter with any combat class skills, but the up side is there are two character slots available on each server. This is much better. Because rather than having a good craft with horrible combat or vise versa, you can have both a good combatant and a good crafter or what ever you want. Also everything is pretty well balanced. The only thing that makes a class better than another is play style preference. Another plus is other than a few 13 year old L33T speakers and a few 38 year old star wars junkies/gurus, the people are pretty friendly and helpful.

MMO Recommendations - If you aren't sure what MMO to choose now here is my list of MMO's I've dealt with.

Matrix Online or City of Heroes - Not much to do other than kill baddies. However, killing enemies seems to stay fun for a long time, and player interactions are always entertaining. Since fighting is all there is to do, expect much grinding and repetitive missions.

Guild Wars - Content is fun for maybe 2 months, but after that you must entertain yourself creatively. Never was too hard for me, but it could be for some people. Free monthly fee is definitely worth getting. Nice side track when the pay per month MMO's get boring

World of Warcraft - Good game. The Fan base can get a little too into the game. The crafting is a bit odd and I never really pursed that too far. This game is also the most popular MMO right now, but I would recommend a trial.

Star Wars - My favorite. You can have fun doing quests, talking to people, messing with crafting, or just plain, pointless screwing around. Space is also the icing on the cake. Every game has grinding and some things take forever in this game, but it is a good one for those who get bored with constant killing. <a href="[...]">Try the trial if you are unsure</A>.

PS - Never Dealt with Customer service, so it might not be good. I don't know about that one.

Don't waste your money

November 22, 2005

I've been playing SWG for almost two years now and my wife for just a few weeks less me. We put up with the nerfing of some of our favorite classes because the game was so flexible.

You could create almost any kind of avatar, and because of the very cool skills and professions trees you could follow almost any career path.

We met many people on line and joined our share of guilds but in on fell swoop SOE and LA have made our favorite characters useless. Suddenly all the maneuvering and point balancing we've done on the skill trees to come up with characters that could hold their own in combat but had useful skills outside of combat are worthless.

Everything that made our characters unique has been trashed. Now you can choose, combat machine, sneak thief, or support, no mixing of skills.

I understand the kids who have the most money to spend for online games drive the market, and maybe most of them just want to play a commando and don't care if he has any non-combat abilities but as adults we don't have a use for this game anymore.

To future players, BE WARNED, SOE and LA don't care how many hundreds of hours you've invested in a character. They'll change the rules on you in a heartbeat that will make your character useless or eliminate their class/skills completely.

Subscription Fees

April 30, 2005

To clear up any misconceptions, Star Wars Galaxies subscription fees are as follows:

1 month - $14.99

3 months - $41.99

6 months - $77.99

12 months - $143.99

As you purchase more months at a time, the cost per month decreases. So since 60 days = 2 months, the cost is $14.99 x 2, or $29.98.

The game card is a good thing. You don't have to worry about your credit card on the internet. You can give them as a gift. And if you don't have a credit card, you can buy a game card and use that instead. The only problem is that you can only buy it for 2 months, so you don't get the discounts for more months.

As for the game itself, I enjoy it. It's quite addictive. It's a little tough to get started, but once you get going and join a PA (Player Association), you'll have a lot of fun. I recommend this game to any Star Wars or RPG fan.
