When I tried to login with that it really didn't go anywhere. I guess I just have to wait an absurd amount of time then, alright.

My character's name is Gaur Osikhan (I think, anyway). Feel free to send me a message or whatever, ladies and gents.

Is it fun? What is there to do?

You never played Star Wars Galaxies, then?

To cut it down to the very basics:
- Harvest and craft.
- Combat.
- Play a supportive profession. (ie. entertainers who dance / play music in cantinas to give people buffs and restore their mind stat.)
- Run a city.

That's not including "dungeon running", bio-engineering (as in making pets from scratch) etc etc. And space combat, if they ever get it in.

So is it true you need a copy of the game to run it then?

You do need a copy of the game to run it, yes. WINK WINK.

I don't know, really, never got into it. It's mainly Jedi vs Bounty Hunters and Empire vs Rebels though, I think.

Apparently people mainly target your "mind stat" because it's the most difficult to heal.

There is an opt-in world-wide PvP in it, wherein you set yourself as a visible imperial or rebel and can thus be targetted by other players (and NPCs). You get points towards your faction for your kills, and can unlock new equipment as well as installations to install near your towns and whatnot, such as NPC-manned bases :D

I really loved this game, although the Emulator isn't quite there yet - it sounds like they have a big update planned for after summer though, after their massive toady-like update to the object system (which has been in works for over a year)

I loved playing this, even the most recent official sony versions (which by the way, are much better than when the whole drama happened). Maybe when the EMU is better I will get back to it.

You should at least give it a try. The controls are odd for me.

I thought of giving it a shot some time ago.
But I didn't know anyone there and was sure I wouldn't be able to catch up with the rest of the crowd.

However, if we get a bay12 group together, I might still reconsider and fill in the role needed.

And that's the beautiful thing about SWG. It's really not very grindy.
