Been playing for over 4 years and cant stop
I like many others have been playing this game for over 4 years and yes I like many did alot of crying about the NGE. When the NGE hit, this game sucked really bad ....I mean it got a 1 on every single mag or review written. But now I can honestly say that they have fixed alot and even though the buffs you can get from medics and entertainers kind of make PVP suck alittle..... the fact is non of us can stop playing. They have recently brought back the Village and if you are a Jedi you can even pick your own skills, making the character yours.... it brings back the the feature from pre NGE. I have an elder Jedi and had to unlock it from the old which was alot of work and grinding... but I recently made a Medic which I play now and i have alot of fun doing it. So take it from 4 year vet who was pissed with the change..... they have fixed alot of this and the game is a blast again.

Chapter 7: Collections
Ladies and Gentlemen,
I play Star Wars: Galaxies in its current state and love it. Collections is just plain awesome. They actually made a quest system that causes you to kill all kinds of high level creatures for a loot item that you can collect. If you get them all, then you get a prize. Also, three high level group quests have been added to the game. They brought back the village Aurillia on Dathomir, and they really paid attention to giving us high levels something to do other than pvp all the time. Imperials are grouping with Rebels amazing. I play on a server called Kauri, and you know what that server is dying. So, if you make a new character, look at starting he/ she on Kauri. If you want, I will help you get situated. If you are starting a new character, don't forget to go through the tutorial. You can level up to 10, and get enough starship experience to advance to the next level in pilot training once your in the actual game itself. Also, I am a member of the guild Knights of Kauri, so if you become a Rebel look me up under Tohee. I will help you get into the guild. Thank you, Steven

Its what you make of it
I use to play the game back when it first came out and spent countless hours playing it. Cant say I ever had anything bad to say about the game since I had a blast with it. Due to a change in jobs I didnt have the time anymore to play it, so I quit in 2004.
I recently returned to the game and I still find myself spending countless hours playing this game so its all in what you make of the game. I very much like the new feature which lets you pilot a starship as well as the new profession expertise.
No, there is not the same amount of players as there use to be (although that is starting to change) and rarely do you see anyone wanting to start a group (which is due to the current Xp point system and groups, but is supposedly being revamped). The current system and group XP points is why i didnt give the game 5 stars However I still find the game fun and I still enjoy playing.
Everyone has their own opinion of the game and you know the old cliche about opinions so download the 14 day free trial and judge the game for yourself.

Great game a must play for any star wars fan.
First this game is like crack for the star wars fan. Game play is good and getting better. The emerson in to the star wars galaxy is never ending. Want to be a jedi and fight the imps! You can do it here. Want to be a dark jedi and stomp those rebel scum. Do it here. Great community, Great content.
Lacking on COSTUMER SERVICE soe is just bad. There is some player hacking going on that needs to be addressed to level the game out.
Been playing for 3 years +, Learning curve is about a month solo, if you get some help about a week.
Come see me on shadowfire.
May the force be with you.

Absolutely Dreadful
This game is an embarrassment to the Star Wars license and MMO's. It is a hodgepodge of several failed overhauls stacked on top of each other where nothing really works like it is supposed to. The graphics are dated, the community is terrible, there is nothing to do, the quests are dreadful and if you get past all of that somehow you will discover the Star Wars universe itself isn't even replicated correctly. The time setting is stated to be between the original Star Wars and The Empire Strikes Back yet you can't swing a dead bantha without hitting 50 Jedi in robes talking like teenage punks and challenging you to duel.
The people who post that this game is fun are either viral marketers hired by Sony to spam boards with fake reviews, employees of the company who will lose their job when its finally shut down or delusional fans who refuse to accept that this game is terrible because of some kind of vested interest. This game is an utter joke and if you want a decent Star Wars experience I would instead encourage you to check out Knights of the Old Republic (1 and 2), Empire at War or even Lego Star Wars instead of this piece of garbage. For that matter I would recommend buying a DVD of one of the movies and watching it a few times before I would recommend playing this game. You have been warned. May the Force be With You and guide your dollars elsewhere.
