SWTOR 7.7.1 Dev Stream Analysis – Flashpoints, FOMO, and Finally Some Progress
If you’ve been wondering what’s next for Star Wars: The Old Republic—and you’ve been quietly pacing like a Sith Lord waiting for story content—you’re not alone. BioWare dropped the full 7.7.1 Dev Stream, and we’ve got thoughts. Let’s break it down the way we always do: sharp, honest, and with just a little snark. Story Content: We Wait… Again Let’s rip off the band-aid first. The big headline? No new story content in 7.7.1.
