Star Wars: The Old Republic
Don't believe there's a dedicated thread, and since they're starting to release information now, I figure it's time for one.

I checked out the Huttball video and looked up some other gameplay videos on YouTube this weekend. I thought it was interesting that most of the combat encounters were groups of 3 or so mobs. And the scenery was absolutely gorgeous.

I cannot wait to play this game.

I'm accustomed to WoW-style burst PvP, instead of skill and group based pvp where healing and tanking actually have some value.

Although there's currently a lot of bitching about snipers and gunslingers in PvP, and how cover doesn't work for PvP because it makes you stationary, and PvP is all about mobility. So PvPers want cover taken completely out of the game (which would piss me the **** off, I loved the cover system in PvE, made the classes feel so unique).
As I am big time into PvP, I am really looking forward to see how Bioware balances PvP between the classes.

I know TOR is not a PvP game, but hopefully it turns out to be fun and well balanced.

If you don’t get invited to this weekend, don’t worry. More Beta Testing Weekends will occur before the launch of The Old Republic. To have an opportunity to get into future Beta Testing Weekends, be sure to sign up for future testing on www.StarWarsTheOldRepublic.com and opt-in for game testing.
Stephen Reid later added that invites will go on throughout the day.

FYI, it looks like they sent the re-invites in a single batch first. So the new invites are still yet to come.

Okay, looks like all the invites have gone out now. So if you didn't get in, you'll be waiting on another weekend. (I'd still check swtor.com/tester just to make sure).

Wow, that's impressive. But that's also one of my biggest concerns. I'm hoping that there won't be too many cutscenes with lengthy dialog. And if there are, I hope the dialog is interesting enough to keep me from wanting to skip through it.

I guess I'll find out tomorrow

There are a lot of cutscenes but I wasn't ever tempted to skip one (well, except when aliens are talking, you'll see...). They're extremely well-done. From a cinematic and storytelling standpoint this is easily among BioWare's best work.

To put some persective on the hugeness of it, I spent more time playing TOR that first weekend than I did my entire first run through Mass Effect 2...and I only managed to get two characters into their mid-teens. Now you can burn through the game faster than that, in a leveling standpoint, but I'm pretty convinced now that it's going to take me in the neighborhood of 200 hours to reach level 50 on my first toon(s), based on my initial weekend.

There will be a point later on (probably not this weekend) when you're repeating world arcs for the 3rd or 4th time that the spacebar will become active, but I would be surprised if I ever skipped over a cutscene that's part of a character class arc, at least not the first time through that class.

Wow, 200 hours to hit level cap is massive. That should give them plenty of time to work on the first expansion before people get burned out on end-game content. Luckily, I prefer leveling over end-game content (at least I do in WoW), so that suits me just fine.

And just a reminder to everyone that the official non-official CP guild has been created. Just go to www.swtor.com/guilds and search for "The Right Fifty Three", or shoot me a PM here with your email and I can send you an invite.
