Since this game came out last December, millions of people have been buying and playing it. Star Wars: The Old Republic, or SWTOR as it is called online, has become a critical success. Being based on one of the most popular and successful sci-fi franchises in the world, this game will be popular for years to come.

This game takes place thousands of years before the events of the movies. In this time period there are two main factions, the Galactic Republic and the Sith Empire. Both factions had been at each other’s throats for centuries. That was until the signing of the Treaty of Coruscant, which ended all hostilities between the factions. This peace treaty was thinly veiled, as fighting continued in parts of the galaxy.

When you create your character you will have to choose which faction to fight for the Republic or the Sith Empire. Each faction is made up of four classes, and each class has two advanced classes to choose from. Some of the classes you can choose from are Jedi Knight, Smuggler, Bounty Hunter, and Sith Warrior. As you can see, there are many class options to choose from.

Your character can also select which species they want to be. Some of the species you could be are Human, Zabrak, Twi’lek, and Sith Pureblood, just to name a few. There are tons of customization options you can choose from to give your character a unique look. There are also a large number of clothing and armor options available for your character.

Companions are another great feature of SWTOR. You will discover different companions as you travel through the galaxy. Companions will help your character in combat by fighting alongside you or healing you. The good thing is that you can customize the look of your partner and how he helps you in combat. Your companions can also craft items and do quests for you, they gather crafting resources. You can also give gifts to your companions, and some companions have the option to be a love interest for your character.

Now what Star Wars game would be complete without space combat? The space combat in this game is very cinematic and a lot of fun. Each class has its own ship and you can upgrade your ship as you progress through the game. Another exciting feature of this game is Flashpoints. Flashpoints are cinematic quests that you do with other players. Flashpoints has great boss fights and best of all great loot. The player versus player element in this game is called Warzones. One type of Warzone has you defending objectives while the other has you play a soccer-like game called Huttball.

Well, as you can see, Star Wars: The Old Republic has a lot of great features. Bioware, the company that developed the game, is doing a great job maintaining the game by regularly releasing patches and new content. Therefore, this game will be a great success in the coming years.
