Star Wars: The Old Republic - Relics of the Gree Trailer

Unravel mystery = hack with lightsabers


I'm glad to see that stereotypical television news propaganda existed a long time ago in a galaxy far far away. That's the best you can come up with, Bioware/EA? I figured the "this is a big deal but we don't want anyone knowing its a big deal" story line was below you. Then again, I guess with a game who has not lived up to subscription expectations needs to do whatever it can to get some people at the keyboards.

Interesting choice focusing on the Gree here; this is a species not usually mentioned in Star Wars lore. This is the first time the Gree will be rearing their tentacled heads for us to see, only having been mentioned in novels and the animated Clone Wars series. I am intrigued about what this new race brings to the table, other than being fodder for my lightsaber, of course. Also, it's important to note that this is an in-game event, no expansion required!

Star Wars: The Old Republic - "Signs of War" Trailer

The force is strong with this one


Yes. Yes yes yes yes. I want it now. It was cool to see some characters from the former trailers appear in this one, which makes me hope that they will have active roles in the game as NPC's, kind of like a Thrall sort of thing (yes, I know that's and outdated WoW reference but I just really like Thrall).

Anyways, we see a lot of the different classes that will be filling this game and there will be definite distinctions between how they look, especially between the two factions. There were quite a few worlds featured as well, and I can't wait to explore them. And if they have an epic large scale battle like the one in the trailer, I very well might never play another game ever again.
