Here we are again, walking that long and hard road of anticipation for a great game. BioWare is bringing us Star Wars: The Old Republic and I personally can't wait to log into this game. Bioware recently published a new video documentary on their site, announcing the Bounty Hunter class, explaining how the time and setting fit with having so many Jedi/Sith in the game, and showing a few game play tidbits. Behold (video below):
This is one of the few games out there that gets me excited with anticipation. Yes, I know I'm doing it all over again and setting myself up here. But, I can't help it, I will anticipate this game being great and look forward to the day it launches regardless. I'll be watching for information from Bioware on this and will be sure to post it here whenever more comes. Enjoy the video.

blog comments powered by DisqusI don't like the term '4th Pillar' - it sounds like one of those meaningless buzz words like '2nd Generation MMO' and 'Sandbox'.
Still, gotta admit, I'm excited :) A SW MMO done well would be awesome.
This looks better and better. I like how the dev comments are supported by the game footage they're showing in the vids. And the fact they seem to get that not everyone wants to play a force using jedi/sith and that other types have just a strong a role in the universe is big. So we can expect jedi, sith, Bounty Hunters, and probably more classes based on the dev comments. Thats whatsup. Google the BH Durge and see what you find. BH's mashout jedis all the same.
I'm excited by the potential of this game. I can't stress enough how encouraging it is that they didn't choose to use any footage from Episode I-III in their vid. Maybe they get it.
One thing I fear when there is so much talk about story is the danger of winding up with something that is more movie than game. But, hell, as long as Bioware is still Bioware I think we're safe.
