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 all part of the adventure. I started my character, Brad Olsen, on Tatooine. For the first month or so of gameplay, it was dangerous for me to venture to far out of the city. I had basic weapons skills but nothing that could take on the Tusken Raiders outside of town, so if I ventured anywhere it was with a caravan of other players. This really added to the community feel of the game. We would venture to explore places like Jabba’s Palace or the Dune Sea with character of every class. Even after I was strong enough to venture out on my own it was still nice to come see the light of a camp fire across the canyons and join in for some rejuvenating down time.
