But anyway, on to their impressions:

 

“I am happy to tell you that I have a Sith Warrior and Sith Inquisitor on Dromund Kaas and Smuggler on Nar Shaddaa with a peppering of other characters on various other planets.

The preview goes on to describe different parts of the reviewer’s experience, along with screen shots and other goodies.

For example:

“Unlike previous WoW-wannabes, SWTOR actually learned from one of the major mistakes WoW made: Leveling is a grind.”

And another snippet:
