There’s a lot of doom and gloom posts floating around the net. They say that swtor was overhyped, that it’s failed to live up to promise and subscribers are leaving in droves. I don’t know whether that’s true I just know that I love this game. There are some iconic parts of the game that deserve their own post, so this is more why I love the game, than any sort of detailed analysis of any particular part.

Is it possible to RP without Roleplaying?
I became a grand champion of the great hunt on my Bounty Hunter yesterday. I’d reached level 33 and finally run out of rested xp. I don’t know if I’m a slow leveller, the fact that I just quest, or what but this levelling process seems to be taking a long time. This is far from a complaint as it is also extremely enjoyable. Anyway, having run out of rested xp I decided to stop playing for the evening but I still wanted to play swtor so I decided to roll my first alt – a Jedi Knight.
Advanced Classes – A Critical Error?
What I love most about swtor is the story. There’s a lot of other things I love about it but that’s the subject of another post. Swtor has eight classes, four for each faction. Each class has two advanced classes and then within those advanced classes there are three specs. For warcraft players specs are a familiar concept as each class in warcraft also has three specs. Like in swtor these specs can be changed for a fee but that’s where the similarity ends.

First post of the blog, the one where you go “hello this is my blog”. How boring is that? Instead lets skip straight to the good stuff.
Last night my faithful iPhone 3GS stopped working. I updated the software and it stopped recognising my sim card, wouldn’t restore and was basically broken. I took it to the store and they managed to get it working again but warned me that there was an underlying hardware fault. With it being two and a half years old and the hard use it’s had I wasn’t surprised. What did surprise me was being told that I could get a free upgrade. Fast forward and I’m now the owner of a new shiny iPhone 4S which is where the game stuff comes in.
