SW:TOR...Maybe it won't suck?

[Rev.BudGreen]

Interesting read here for anyone who is interested. My biggest concern is that this game is nothing more than a souped up Guild Wars or Diablo. A linear un-massive co-op game. Honestly having gone back and played Mass Effect again, I've grown even more concerned about ToR. At different point in Mass Effect I wanted to test out the whole "You make the story and your decisions and conversation effect everything." So I'd save a different spots and go test out the other options and no matter what I choose to do or say, it always had the same results.

Anyway, the producer interview here kind of lessens my worries for the game. He assures the public that is is an "open" world with other stuff to do besides the story part of it. I am still very concerned about him saying that "The entire game can be done solo." This isn't possible on even the easiest mmo out there, WoW. I'll still give it a try and decide on how the game feels and not what I read. But here is the interview. A good read none the less.

EDIT: My concern is class balance.

We'll see how balance the game is once it's out. I figure it's going to be 75% Jedi and Sith.
