I won't say wow clone since it probably adds some good stuff from a story perspective, but man MMOs now days are so been there done that. Everytime I see a new MMO now days I don't see cool swords/armor/weapons...etc I see numbers, stats, and an equipment grind as a method of true long term progression.

Now with star wars old repulic, doesnt look like much changes in that but the story aspect might bring questing to a new level we havn't seen before which could be great since i've heavily enjoyed the bioware starwars games for their story. So if I get a mmo wrapped in a single player bioware game of similar quality ill be happy for a while.

I am skeptical they can pull it off, but its bioware, master of story telling games. I also HEAVILY ADMIT that i really just want to multibox a bunch of sith. People can get angry but ill just respond back that the sith are evil bastards who devot themselves to finding powerfull ways to kill you heh
