Star Wars Galaxies was an awesome concept that just wasn't executed in a good way. I played on-and-off for a few years but I just couldn't enjoy it in the long run.

I would definitely like to see a total reboot of SWG. Preferrably not done by SOE (BioWare, Bethesda, Obsidion... ANYBODY).

People are still playing this?? I joined at the beginning...gave it more time than I should have, then realized I was playing an absolute piece of garbage.

I joined again later after they claimed to have revamped it. They did make some improvements (there were certainly more things to do!) but they really screwed up the combat and by that time a gajillion people had already left so every planet was like a ghost town.

Very sad....I really wanted this game to be a hit.

This game was a big folly. A boner, if you will.

They did everything wrong to make the game disagree with Star Wars Fans. Completely skill based with a player economy? Great for some games, but that isn't Star Wars. There was no epic war in which you could make a difference fighting for either side. The game should have been closer to PlanetSide than UO.

Big folly.

If SOE was smart, they would announce that the game had one year remaining. Give all current players free playtime and goodies or whatever. Let the game die. Sell the rights to the highest bidder and give someone else a crack at a star wars MMO.

When you have geeks flocking away from something with the Star Wars name on it, you know you have done something horribly wrong. (I'm looking at you Episode One)

Yeah. I kinda like Star Wars, and I also like MMOs. I played SWG for a few weeks before I realised that it had a crappy design, that it was extremely buggy, and really didn't offer a lot of content. If there'd be a Star Wars MMO of a quality similar to World of Warcraft's, then I'd definitely want to play it.
