In a galaxy far far away

What is this thing you speak of?  This SWTOR?  It stands for Star Wars the Old Republic and as I stated in my previous post it's a MMO.  It's based on the Star Wars Universe. It has characters in it and familiar planets for those that have seen some of the movies.  However, when you're playing the game your about 3000 years in the past.  Jedi were numerous, Alderaan was yet to be blown up by Darth Vader, hell Yoda wasn't even born yet.

When you first start the game you have to choose which side of the force you're on, your species, gender, and class.  Species and gender are self explanatory but what is this class thing.  Your class is kind of like your job.  There are different classes depending on if you're on the light side or the dark.

I found that the hardest part of all this is choosing a name.  You can't have a name like anyone else.  If you want a particular name you have to get creative.  For my first and second character I used the name generator and had it pick for me.  My second two I got creative with names.

 I play light side characters.  I will not go into all the classes and such but I'll let ya'll know what I'm playing.  Here are the characters that I'm playing.  I'm going to give a brief description now and go into more details in a future post.

Lio'eg - Torgruta Scoundrel (Smuggler Class), Level 70 (This is the highest you can go for now)

Raechel - Human Jedi Guardian, Level 18

Teraessa - Twi'lek Jedi Sage, Level 29

Nav'ida - Human Trooper, Level 27

Before I come to an end here I will say the game is free to play.  However, if you pay for a subscription you get perks, such as a monthly allowance of Cartel Coins to buy items in game.  I have a subscription, though started out as a free player because I wasn't sure I would like it.  It's totally worth it to me to pay for a subscription.  I think I'm addicted to the game.
