Re: SWTOR
Well, in the game I was referring to, that was exactly the case and everyone knew about it. I did not intend to make it sound as though it was that way for every game of this type. What game are you talking about?
Well, upon further investigation, SW:TOR can fuck right off. I don't game enough to pay a monthly fee. Because 50 cents per day is WAY to expensive for my entertainment needs (kidding).

Re: SWTOR
I pay for WoW for myself and my fiance, and Champions Online for myself. We're soon going to buy SWTOR and I'll be paying for two subs to that as well (we'll drop WoW by the next expansion). It saves me money, because we can spend our leisure time at home with a small monthly fee rather than going out to dinners and movies and bars and (gasp) shopping. The fiance has a taste for high-end designer handbags/shoes/clothes/jewelry. $75 a month ($45 after October) may be a fair amount, but that's one decent dinner out, and it gives us hours of enjoyment almost every night.
The human understanding when it has once adopted an opinion (either as being the received opinion or as being agreeable to itself) draws all things else to support and agree with it. - Francis Bacon "There are two novels that can change a bookish fourteen-year old's life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged. One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world. The other, of course, involves orcs." - John Rogers

Re: SWTOR
Any character types similar to Imperial Knights?
The above ontological example models the zero premise to BB theory. It does so by applying the relative uniformity assumption that the alleged zero event eventually ontologically progressed from the compressed alleged sub-microscopic chaos to bloom/expand into all of the present observable order, more than it models the Biblical record evidence for the existence of Jehovah, the maximal Biblical god designer.
-Attributed to Buzsaw Message 53 Moreover that view is a blatantly anti-relativistic one. I'm rather inclined to think that space being relative to time and time relative to location should make such a naive hankering to pin-point an ultimate origin of anything, an aspiration that is not even wrong. Well, Larni, let's say I much better know what I don't want to say than how exactly say what I do.

Re: SWTOR
In Wisconsin!?! The cost of living out there cannot be that bad. Depends on where in WI you live. If you live in Milwaukee or Madison, it can get pricey. If you live in the country, it can cost you hundreds just to pay for the gas to get you to a city with anything to do in it. SO yeah, especially in this economy, it can be pretty tough to afford to live, even in WI.

Re: SWTOR
In Wisconsin!?! The cost of living out there cannot be that bad. It's not, really. I just don't have a wonderful job and the old lady is a stay at home. 2 kids (one of which I pay ~$600/month in child support for yet have him half the time), a car payment in which the loan company forcefully put insurance on which raised my car payments to that of a lexus for the past year and being a verizon customer and have gotten my bill as low as possible. Oh, and I suck at managing my money.

Re: SWTOR
Yep, that too. I work in Racine and live in Delavan (Lake Geneva area). ~1 hour each way.

Re: SWTOR
Yea...we don't go out to eat either. Unless you count going to my parents house on frequent weekends and having my mom cook for us as going "out" to eat.

Re: SWTOR
Any character types similar to Imperial Knights? Are they of the same time period as this game? The closest I think would be the Sith Warrior Juggernaut Sith Warrior - Star Wars: The Old Republic Wiki

Re: SWTOR
My mistake, the Imperial Knights are around the time of the second Empire and Cade Skywalker. Basically grey Jedi who use the dark side but not in a naughty way.

Yeah, okay, there's not really a Character Class that would correspond to that... but you could roll up a Jedi Knight and just get a bunch of dark side point by doing the naughty stuff... that won't really get you the dark side powers tho.
