I wanted to love it, but the actual experience didn't keep my interest. The graphics and sound promised me Star Wars nirvana, but the actual game experience starved me.

This game really die the first few months after NGE. Wasn't getting a lot of "acclaim" after the CU for that matter. I stayed on for about a year after NGE and finally realised that this game was no longer the game I wanted to play...the pre-CU one...and left. Never looked back and never felt sad in regards to my decision. Frankly, they should have pulled the plug six months after NGE.

All is legit as they use the pre-NGE build.

I felt the same way about SWG as I do about Eve....I tried it; I tried it for longer than a month and I thought it sucked butt after 15-20 days...surprised I pushed on through to my magical time frame to say that I actually gave both games a fair shake. I went into both games with eyes and ears open but never got the feeling that I was looking for in either one.

Star Wars Galaxies - very confusing.

Enter game after making persona. Walk around. 200 people dancing and playing music in the cantina. Five people doing something else, usually wandering around asking "what do I do next, and what's up with everyone dancing and playing music?"

I tried Galaxies when they had one of their 2 week free trial periods. I think I played the game for about 3 days before I got totally bored and uninstalled it.
