STAR WARS™: The Old Republic™

本体是免费游玩的、DLC是付费订阅的。
剧情是老粉狂喜的、音乐是爷青又回的。
画质是上个世纪的、机制是MMORPG的。
技能是老长一行的、亚服是没几个人的。
星球大战MMORPG，职业相当丰富（绝地、西斯、无赖、赏金猎人、共和国士兵等），虽然SWTOR和WOW是同一类型的，但是SWTOR和WOW在非常多的地方上都不一样，更像是WOW的改进版，对玩家更友好。
比起WOW，SWTOR更适合单人玩，剧情更有意思（对话有3个选项，一般第3个选项是各种吐槽+装逼用的，比如在最新的75级DLC Onslaught中，后期会碰到一个西斯，这个西斯表示为了击败你苦练了N年，然后你可以回复说，对你来说这是个印象深刻的战斗，但对我来说这场战斗打完后我根本不会记得，有种爽文的感觉哈哈）；
角色升级速度更快（我买的月卡，基本主线还没推完，等级都升满了，Bio Ware属实良心）；
关于任务，SWTOR的任务更好玩一些，基本就是清小怪、打BOSS的套路，BOSS每次都出来BB几句，你可以各种吐槽嘲讽装逼，氛围烘托的很好，整体节奏相当紧凑（反观WOW，各种无意义的读条捡东西，强行拖时间让你买月卡，玩的让人犯困）；
角色死了不用跑尸，复活机器人可以把你原地救活；自带全能炉石（随便传送飞行点，甚至可以在宇宙中各个星系快速传送，不用像WOW那样拿哨子呼叫飞行管理员，也不用浪费大把时间看飞行动画，随点随到）；
后面等你有了自己的飞船后，手头上东西满了可以立马回飞船，把东西扔到飞船的Cargo Box里，不需要去银行，而且容量贼大；
幻化的话还算方便，虽然不像WOW现在那样什么东西拿到手就放到幻化收藏了，但是你可以直接点开角色面板把你准备好的幻化装备放在幻化栏上，不需要来回跑去找幻化商人（这个方便是考虑到SWTOR庞大的仓库，WOW的小包包实在受不了）；
可以自定义UI位置，不需要像WOW那样另装MOD插件，具体操作是点击技能栏左侧的+号，有几个预设模板，我现在用的是Expand那个，所有技能栏都铺开放在屏幕下方，不需要翻页了（翻页真是反人类，按键不够我宁愿ALT+Q）；
副本匹配的话和WOW差不多，有匹配工具，在右下角，或者点击上方菜单栏里的Activity。
SWTOR有个Legacy系统，有点像WOW的传家宝那样吧。你可以在Legacy里建立自己家族（写上自己的姓氏，就像Skywalk那样，你可以在银河系建立自己的传奇家族，比如我建的是Wong家族哈哈），Legacy有一套内容丰富的技能树，在提升Legacy等级后，可以点出来各种加成效果，比如经验加成、原地切换职业专精、移动邮箱（不用像WOW那样学工程了）等等。
关于氪金问题，我也是这两天刚玩，感觉除了月卡其他没有需要氪的，Cartel Coins的话，买月卡每个月会送，只要你玩的长，Cartel Coins永远不缺，商城幻化随便买哈哈。订阅的话如果要取消，在 账户明细 里取消订阅，否则会每个月扣钱。
最后：建议配合有道词典悬浮窗使用，方便查词！用好辅助工具，像我这样的英语渣都能玩，我觉得你也没问题 :)
May The Force Be With U!

I started playing SWTOR since 2011 December, oh during these times, the launch was horrendous indeed. I remember how hard the game used to be. Companions used to have gear wit stats and locked roles. Nowdays it is much more friendly to casuals and i am actually glad for it.
Swtor does let you choose from 8 class stories, yes 8. Each one is fully fledged story campaign and voice acted by both genders by professional voice actors.
i always felt, swtor is not official sequel to Kotor games, and in my canon world, it is direct sequel to the games.
You can literally decide many things, in each class story and the story telling is amazing for each Class in base game.
I do not have fav one, i equally enjoyed all of them. After base game, you have expansions, the stories there are way more locked as same for each class. Except, Empire and Republic arc has some different stuff, depends on each expansion. But still they did great job with expansions and later on. What started annoy me later on after 2020, is the pacing of updates being slower, and Major Content updates feels very lackluster. I wish SWTOR takes break for a year to make proper expansion, and then release it because lately what are we getting is really bit sad, for the price of Subscription. I guess we can only all hope it picks up again. But considering its EA as publisher we may never know.
But if you are new player, its best time to start right away, so much content to do, so many great stories, so many beautiful places to explore on Old Republic Lore which i consider of it's best in the Star Wars Universe myself.


Pros:
+ Art Style, did age very well
+ Voice Acting is one of the strongest positives of swtor
+ Amazing planets to explore, base game ones has each one planetary story, always like to go back to old planets for that reason on my alts
+ Combat Styles added with Legacy of the Sith expansion (If you are subscriber, you can have two classes on one, let's say you are Jedi Knight - Sentinel you can choose as second combat style Consular either the sith ones)
+ You can choose heal, tank either dps role for any companion you own
+ Story, the narrative here is so strong, there no SW games being that open for deciding the fate of Galaxy
+ Soundtrack is breathtaking
+ I like the approach of Galactic Seasons (Battle Pass), you have a lot of time to finish it, 6 months to be exact. So no fomo, like other mmos. Thanks Galactic God. ;D
+ If you like hoarding stuff and crafting, then you will love Swtor, the crafting here is way more simple but that is why i love it for it.
+ Most of stuff can be done SOLO, which is amazing

Cons:
- Optimization was never the best thing about SWTOR, hopefully DirectX12 support will help to utilize modern hardware cpus
- Lack of big updates last years, probably due to EA being EA
- Not enough fresh group content since 2023, that was last time they added Flashpoint, where are new Flashpoints?
- Lack of transparency by Developers with their community, usually ignorant to feedback
- Balance in combat compare to other classes, some are way strongers than others, but that was always issue

Result:
I am giving SWTOR personally 9/10 because, well i love Star Wars in general. I loved when Bioware was around and developed such a masterpiece of story telling, great flashpoints (dungeons) and some raids are really amazing. The strongest side of SWTOR was, is and always be Storytelling, that was, is and always be really done well.
Wish we could get way more content updates, to make the game feel more alive again, so us veterans has reason to play way more, because at this moment. There is not much to do, other than replay class stories, which feels bit tedious, as i have done this millions times last decade. :D
If you are newbie, i totally recommend to start play, you have so much content beforehand to do and it is very solo friendly if you do not feel doing group content.

虽然没有中文，但是星战星迷还是可以找到一些乐趣

超级好玩，虽然没有中文但是也能玩，很好理解，画面也很不错~！

有没有游戏QQ群？好多想问的？譬如坐骑哪里买？下副本看到那些大佬们车子蜥蜴的，羡慕。

画面是上个世纪的没错，但是作为MMO，真的没有谁能比这款了，优点如下：
①首先是全程配音，对话都有镜头特写，电影感很足；
②其次，50级之前每个职业都有一长串的职业任务线，扮演感满点；
③而且最棒的是，主线任务和职业任务做下来，你会发现原来你不是像其他MMO里那样扮演一个“推动历史进程的一份子”，你，就是风暴的中心，你就是主角，大英雄（或者大恶人），你是具有和星战传说宇宙里的英雄们单挑也不落于下风的实力的人物，满足感爆棚；
④服装可以统一颜色，这使得自己用散件搭配衣服变得非常有趣，收集各种装备给自己和同伴换装也是一大乐趣。
⑤商城里卖很多星战IP人物的服装和道具（而且大部分并不贵），弥补了传说宇宙和正传宇宙不挨着的缺憾——你虽然比阿索卡早生了一千多年，但你可以穿着她的衣服，拿着安多的爆能枪勇闯太空。
缺点：
①慢热，初期阶段有点冗长，特别是绝地和西斯，玩上两个多小时才能拿到光剑（一怒之下商城买了一把特价的）。初期地图的相似度过高，感觉有点重复。初期地图还往往拥有巨多的任务，如果立志都做完的话会非常累。
②个人太空船没有任何社交功能，也不能在地图上开自己的太空船，感觉太空船就没多大用。
③坐骑不能飞（虽然说这也不是MMO的硬性要求吧），而且估计以后也不会让玩家飞，所以即便买了战斗机或喷射背包坐骑也只能地上跑。
④对星战传说宇宙不了解的话，体验感会有所下降，比如如果不知道Revan是谁，做Revan相关的任务就会无感。
⑤画面是上个世纪的没错啦，不过最近进行了一系列画质提升，如果能习惯《克隆人战争》的动画片那种画风的话，这个写实度还是可以接受。
总的来说，强烈推荐！如果能早些年知道这款游戏就好啦！

这就是星球大战版的传奇类型游戏，不喜欢的这类的就不要下载了。游戏做的还是特别不错的
