What Gamespot Users have to say about Star Wars Galaxies: Starter Kit

    There is a great disturbance in the force... SWG has turned to the Dark Side,

    SWG has gone from a good game of the last 2 years (even in spite if the last CU) to something that is best described by users of the SOE forums as a game only fit for Alpha Testing. Aside from the moans and groans of ... Read Full Review

    The Death of Star Wars Galaxies

    DO NOT believe the bright and sunny picture that SoE/LA are painting for this. I have been in Star Wars Galaxies since beta and will paint the picture as I see it while comparing then and now. Then: 30+ profession... Read Full Review

    They destroyed a once great game.

    Overall the game has been modified to attract 10-12 year olds. It looks okay at first but there is no backbone to the game. You loose interest in around a week. It has less replay value than most cheaply made single p... Read Full Review

    Imagine everything fun, unique, and interesting about SWG. Now imagine it all GONE.

    This is what SOE and LucasArts has done to SWG in the last patch, dubbed the "New Game Enhancements" or simple "The NGE." Profession diversity completely removed, combat completely dumbed down to 1st-grader levels, SW... Read Full Review

    Ignore the whiner reviews. They are old players of the game that are upset they have lost their 'i win' button...

    Basically this game has had it's up and downs. It started of as Ultima Online in a Star Wars skin, then it was EQ2 in a Star Wars skin. Now finally, it's become it's own thing. The new combat is faced-paced: As it should... Read Full Review

    Do not waste your time or hard earned cash !

    This game is one long grind. And with the NGE it's even worse. The initial tutorial might be nice, but dont fall for it. It'll be the last time you hear voiceovers or get immersive quests. And dont get me started on the ... Read Full Review

    Waste of time, waste of money. 'New Game Enhancements' ruined one of the best games ever.

    Don't be fooled, this game has been around for 2+ years and recently had 75% of the work people have put in over the 2 years trashed for the introduction of what the company calls 'New Game Enhancements'. In reality... Read Full Review

    Bad to Worse

    I admit before NGE I was quite exited because being a level 80 veteran character currently working on the jedi fs quests that I could automatically respec to a level 80 jedi. Now that it has come to pass I find that my... Read Full Review
