The features that I'm reading so far in the game will make the game succeed in today's saturated MMO market
In the same way, Apple, a company that had never made a cell phone before, has revolutionized the mobile comunications landscape with the Iphone by using it's strengths in interface design, Bioware, with it's assembled team of players tha thas worked on over 40 MMORPGS, has the potential to turn the MMO world upside down with the best in-class expertise in character-driven RPG storytelling. That, combined with the Star Wars universe, means The Old Republic has all the ingredients of a game-changer in the making.
The game will be the most story driven MMORPG out there on the market right now. Never before in the history of MMOs have there been quests with multiple out-comes depending on your actions, and with those actions having long-term effects. The quests will seem very 'real' in the fact that they won't be tedious or any of that, the missions you'll see in this game will have the quality that you're familiar with on offline RPGs
(Bioware on the state of MMORPGS): "We love MMMOs, we play pretty much all of them collectively, and we think there are a lot of amazing games out there, but think we're adding something new. In addition to exploration, customization, progression, and comabt, we're adding a meaningful story that you get to play through as a character.
Another hallmark of this game is it's chompanion characters - NPcs that join the players' party and not only fight alongside him, but also interact with him socially and react toh is choices. You can romance them, amek friends witht hem, betray them, and they can even decide to leave your party if they don't like what you're doing.
Also, they said their game engine (HeroEngine) will help reshape the way MMOs are played.
of course that's just the tip of the iceberg, this is just the SMALL amount of info that was released earlier, they said they'll continue to unviel new things and new features.
Ca-Ching ?
