in a word: no.
its all come to pieces and SWG is nothing but an empty shell of its former self, and to think it was my first mmo expierence
edit: oh and i started playing EVE a week or so ago during my time off, its not too bad but big learning curve

Is it that bad?
I like many other ex SWG players remember the days of pre CU and NGE (updates), when SWG shone so very very brightly.
It went supernova long ago and barely emits any light now.
Save your cash. If you like Star Wars, there is the rumblings of a Knights of the old republic MMO in a few years.

No.
Try WoW or EVE, however be warned that I fouind EVE to be really pretty boring due to the fact that I have no mates playing it.
I find that's the case with all MMO's really, if I have no real life friends playing it I get bored extremely quickly. It must all be about the competition for me

despite it still having a few features yet to be topped by any other game, namely crafting and city building, everything else is now a big steaming turd and to this day still brings a tear to former players who spent many a month immersed in the star wars universe
i curse the day LA thought they could make SWG "better" and used SOE as its scapegoat (which i believe justified the reason why SOE HATE working with other peoples IP)
the CU i was happy with, big changes but still the same swg with a fresh coat of paint if you will...the nge, possibly up there as one of the dumbest gaming decisions ever

It is indeed a shadow of its former self. I too played SWG as my first MMO, over 5 years ago when it still had depth, when you had a large variety of professions to choose from and it still had its magic.
I think most people with say the NGE and some both the NGE and CU.
Sony
Actually it was LucasArts who forced the changes on Sony. Many SOE employees either quit or lost their job because of it.
New Game Enhancements. It basically changed the entire game. It's literally not the same game today as it was before it.
I want to know this as well. I've never played SWG but I find it hard to understand how a game can go from being so good to being so bad overnight.
What exactly happened? What did Sony do?
