In my vision of the sequel to Star Wars Galaxies, vehicles would have combat roles rather than just fancy transports such as they are now.  Vehicles such as the AT-AT, AT-ST and AT-RT would not be pets users control from the side lines, rather vehicles people could enter and control in battles.  The combat class …

Before you get your hopes up, no there is no Star Wars Galaxies sequel in the works, at least not that I am aware of.  This is just a short list of some of the things I would like to see included if SOE and Lucasarts decided to make another go at it.  The chances …

Star Wars Galaxies has really shifted gears towards instant satisfaction for their replacement player base. I say replacement because the vast majority of the original game players have vacated the game after Sony and Lucasarts overhauled the game at the fundamental level and made it a complete different game experience than people origninally bought. To …

Many people have many different feelings about Star Wars Galaxies. Some people love it just the way it is. But for the most part, many of the original players feel it is a dead game. Compared to the number of subscribers now as to pre-NGE, the old players are right. To …

One of my first and most loved professions in Star Wars Galaxies was the Creature Handler.  In pre-game dream mode I never thought of being a Creature Handler at all.  Being able to tame and control pets didn’t seem to top my list of things to do in a Star Wars game.  I had dreams …

While writing about my past experiences with Star Wars Galaxies, I started to feel pretty nestalgiac and started looking at SWG to see of any changes.  Sadly, it looks like Sony is flushing this once great game right down the toilet and not looking back.  However, there is a new hope Star Wars Galaxies fans!  …

I have so many rants for this game I could, and probably will, go on all day.  In the early days this game was great.  It’s everything, well almost everything, you would expect from the Star Wars universe.  Combat was fun and challenging.  The crafting system was actually fun and rewarding, albeit a bit tedious …

Before mounts or vehicles in Star Wars Galaxies, everyone had to make their way on foot, everywhere.  The only shortcut to getting to a destination on planet was to take a shuttle to the nearest city to your destination and walk it from there.

After awhile, this became tedious labor but in the beginning this was …

(Editor’s Note: Looks like the AT-AT finally made it in to SWG!) I remember in pre-release videos and pictures seeing a full blown AT-AT (All Terrain Attack Transport) walking around.  This thing was HUGE!  In the video they had it walking the sands of Tatooine and for a …
