The following review is the opinion of the review's author [Tanika Maie (and Jenda)]
and in no way represents the opinions of this website or its staff.
The most telling point of this place for me is the fact that I made an
alt almost quicker than /anywhere/ else. :)
If you like some of the more 'exotic' SW races, this is THE place for
you. The staff was immediately responsive to @mail, requesting exotic
races, for both of my alts. I play a Zeltron and a Kushiban, two races
so exotic that a lot of people didn't even know what they were, when
I apped.
The races were set up properly with all their exotic abilities and
everything. That was a very bright start, I had my character on the
grid as soon as I could get my background written. It was approved
almost immediately.
After that point, I was found and equipped by the faction admin, for
the Republic, almost immediately. I then went IC, and was immediately
sent to my assigned ship, with an Astromech and all. The fighter
assignment was just as immediate, and I was pulled immediately into RP
with the ship captain, and the squadron exec for my squadron.
I have found staff there /very/ responsive, overall, to things. My
alt was also approved almost immediately, and was on Coruscant within
24 hours of being created.
Everything is active there, and I highly recommend it. If you like
seeing FCs out on the grid, this is the place for you. The FCs there
are extremely active. Luke, Lando, and Tionne especially are out and
about a lot. My lowly peon characters even have seen them all.
The game has an amazing atmosphere. The staff is a great group, and
provides an excellent amount of fun for all players. Once you start
playing, you won't regret it. I certainly haven't... I've even
started recruiting friends to there. :)
Get on and make a character... you know you want to... It's 3 years
after Endor, and the galaxy is divided like never before, an extreme
hot zone, on all points. the restored Republic and the Galactic Empire
go after one another regularly. And the military RP is concentrated
very well, to make certain that the military players are RPing, rather
than being trapped on multiple tiny ships.
There's also a great blend of high drama, and humor. I've seen plenty
of both. Even a spectacular event between the Jedi and a Dark Sider
in the Coruscant's undercity. Even more cool because one of my chars
has met the Jedi involved on multiple occasions. Said character also
saw the incident that led up to the confrontation.
All of the factions are extremely player friendly, as are all the
staff. It's an incredibly enjoyable experience. :)
And I'm quite particular about where I mush, so... :)
