I've had a tough time staying awake playing through the story. I'm on chapter 8 now. I keep falling asleep at the cutscenes. The story is cool and I don't want to skip it - and that's pretty much a first for me in any game. But the next level up I'm going to spacebar skip all the cutscenes.

I actually started playing a commando or a non-force users. But I deleted that level 60, and it let me start another level 60. It really felt weird not being a sith or jedi with the storyline. So I agree with you on that one - about how a non-force users fits in.
