Star Wars Gamers Fans Reflect on SWTOR Anniversary

It’s the 8th anniversary of SWTOR and some of you have been around since the very start with us. Some of you have been reading and sharing our posts since the very beginning and we are SO grateful for you all. Today, in honor of the SWTOR 8th anniversary and our amazing readers, I want to share some of YOUR memories of the game. Lisa Rodriguez I used to be part of a guild named the Order of Ashla. I had some really fun RP there, mostly with players like Nol, Hydro, Trouten and Church. We tried to keep in touch after wards but now, it’s just Nol and Hydro I’m still in touch with. The guild died out after the server change including also switching ourselves to another RP server. When we tried to continue it, I wasn’t online often enough as a Council Member and something happened to where the…

Happy 8-Year Anniversary from Star Wars: The Old Republic

On December 20th, SWTOR celebrating its 8th year, I remember this anniversary all too well because a) I was writing for this site and we were SUPER pumped for the launch and b) I had a baby 2 days later. We were all taking bets on which one come first – the baby or the game. This is a game that has seen its share of controversy, like all Star Wars games, honestly, and one that holds a lot of memories for a lot of people, myself included. I was able to attend the inaugural Guild Summit in Austin and meet the staff at BioWare Austin and see behind the scenes of the making of the game, for one. And now we are here, with another year in the books and SWTOR staff have some memories of their own they want to share. This message from the Team on SWTOR.com…

We’d all love another Star Wars game, no doubt! We’ve learned not to get too excited in the early stages of game development because far too many of these anticipated games fizzle out.

Should Jedi: Fallen Order Get a Sequel?

Jedi Fallen Order

We were all VERY excited for a new Star Wars game and despite some issues, Jedi: Fallen Order did not disappoint. But, should it get a sequel? CBR.com says YES! And honestly, I agree. Are there some issues with the game? Yes. Is it still worth playing? Yes. But does it still deserve a sequel? Yes! Jonathan Figueroa says: After dozens of canceled Star Wars video games — and a handful of lame ones — Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order has arrived, finally delivering on the promise of an action-packed lightsaber adventure. It isn’t perfect, as the game has its fair share of issues and bugs, but Fallen Order can be improved upon in a sequel — and yes, it definitely deserves one. Before we discuss what we want to see in a sequel, though, let’s talk about why it needs one, and where this game succeeds the most. “ And he really hits the nail on the head with…

Do Star Wars Trailers Reveal Too Many Spoilers?

Sure, we’re all super excited to see the next movie, and the next Star Wars video game, but do the trailers reveal too many spoilers? This is the complaint that a lot of fans made recently when some say that trailers gave away too many crucial facts and plot lines about The Rise of Skywalker. Are they giving too much away? Is there any reason for us to still see the movies when the trailer gives us a total play-by-play? The Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker trailers have revealed two huge plot points — the return of Emperor Palpatine, and the appearance of “Dark Rey.”  Some fans were not happy about this but Lucasfilm President Kathleen Kennedy has an explanation. She explains in an interview with io9 that they are bringing the movies to a conclusion now and this is one reason they’ve intentionally chosen to be less secretive, like Star Wars movies…

Star Wars Fan Film “Shrouded Destiny”

Star Wars Fan Film - Shrouded Destiny

Here’s the start of a very interesting fan film. Shahbaz Sarwar was born and raised in Copenhagen, Denmark and has been working on a film draft for 2 1/2 years. This is a test shot of that script in action. I really don’t want to ruin it by telling you much more about the film/story itself. You just need to watch it. It’s just over 6 minutes, so it’s not going to take up a lot of your time, but I think you’ll be glad you watched. It had me both rolling with laughter and screaming at my screen. It’s good. Very good. I’m going to let you see for yourself, but allow me to tell you a bit about the creator and the project itself. This is what Sarwar has to say about it: Like many people, “The Force Awakens” really got a lot of people back into Star…
