SWG: Update
It’s been a while since I’ve posted. Darn it!
I’m on Corellia now. It took me a long time to venture from Tatooine, but travel is fairly easy. Coronet is packed and full of lag.
Once on Corellia I took a long trip to the hidden Rebel base. From there I took a few Reb missions and began the path toward joining a faction. I’m probably being hasty, but hey, nothing ventured, nothing gained. I’m nearly all the way to joining the Rebellion now.
Two Reb players in player associations recommended a player city on Corellia, so I headed there to check it out. It’s a very well-established player city… very impressive. I’ve been doing missions out of there for a while now, and I’ve joined the city whole-hog — built a house, declared citizenship. I’m paying taxes and the whole shebang. (Being a homeowner is fairly pricey, but I get the feeling it’ll seem less so over time.)
So, I’m established. It’s a little odd. I have only met a few people in town, but for a player city it seems pretty busy (that is, there are usually a couple of other players there). It’s a city with an allegiance to the Rebellion. I like that I’m being social and participating in the factions storyline (or “rhetorical simulation algorithms”) at once. I also like that I get to learn how to decorate.
I am working up the Brawler tree to Teras Kasi. You do as much damage as with a rifle, though it seems like you take more as well. Soon I’m going to have to grow up and decide what I’m going to do with my life.
