ow man they really should have left it whit hte old gameplay!

The gameplay looks fine, though it does look like there are some issues with the game. It's still a Beta so that's to be expected. I'm glad to see the game is turning out to look quite nice 

[Darth Verik]

it looks nice, but its not KotOR anymore! ;__;

[Droideka]

It isn't, but I think if anybody can pull off a good conclusion to the KOTOR series, Bioware can do it.

Man, its changed from the first KotOR and it doesnt seem like much of an RPG as much as a FPS now.

Not anything like an fps. Its basically a more immersive KoToR w/o auto attack.

[Jon415]

Yea i didnt mean fps but its different from the first one where you paused and thenn added attacks to the attack menue instead of just pressing a button, more like a shooter.

[Droideka]

Well it is different but I don't see how they could keep it the same...in a singleplayer game it's easy to let you pause and add attacks, but it's not like you can pause an MMO, the action has to be continuous. I like both systems, but this one works better for a game like TOR..
