Star Wars: The Old Republic, often referred to as SWTOR, came out in December of 2011 and quickly accrued over one million subscribers. This officially makes the game one of the fastest growing MMOs in history. There are quite a few players claiming that SWTOR is just like all of the other MMORPGs out there, but with a Star Wars theme. What is it about this game that draws so many players in and why have so many PC gamers fallen in love with it?
The game's story starts well before Darth Vader's rise to power and all of the other famous Star Wars characters are absent. The Empire and the Republic have recently signed the infamous Treaty of Coruscant, which has brought conflict to an end. However, tensions between the two factions have greatly increased and it seems as though war is inevitable. Sooner or later, the treaty will surely be broken.
It is at this point that players actually start the game. Each player must choose which side they want to fight for should a war break out. The Republic and Sith Empire both have four distinct, main classes. Each one of those classes have two advanced classes within them. The Imperial Agent, Bounty Hunter, Sith Inquisitor and Sith Warrior are all a part of the Empire. The Republic, on the other hand, includes the: Jedi Knight, Jedi Consular, Trooper and Smuggler.
Starting at level 10, players will be able to choose between two specializations. This is where the class turns into an advanced one. Once chosen, a class becomes significantly more powerful and can be fine tuned to a person's personal preferences. People will be able to decide on certain abilities to match their characters play style. If a person rather play in large groups, they will need to choose abilities that work best in that situation. Solo players can do the same and make their characters into fighting machines. There are others who want to defend the group and will choose a slew of defense abilities to hold off their foes. The way a person plays and the developing story is dependent upon choosing their specializations.
SWTOR has quite a few different things for players to do while progressing through levels. You can follow the standard quest line, participate in flashpoints (often called dungeons or raids in MMOs), and even PvP (player versus player) battles. No matter what you choose to do in the game, each one will require a different strategy and play style. Throughout the leveling process, players will gain new armor pieces, weapons and plenty of other useful items. Around level 16, players receive their own spaceship in which they can travel around the galaxy and participate in space combat missions.
Star Wars: The Old Republic is an overall solid game. It has all of the major aspects that have come to be expected from MMORPGs and has gained a lot of attention from the industry. It may only be a matter of time before the game reaches the top spot and surpasses other popular MMO games.
