Let us pray that this sparks some new drama.

That would be a waste of prayers.

I'm only interested into two things that could possibly come from BiowarEA at this point:

They're shut down by EA, as this would cause some real amount of drama from everywhere.

Some angry fan kills somebody from BiowarEA. Now this would be pretty fun to watch.

Anything else is just the same old retarded shit we've been getting ever since DA2's release, which no longer amuses me. (not saying it wasn't bad before, but ever since DA2 it's a whole new level of retarded from BiowarEA)

http://www.gamesindustry.biz/articl...d-republic-producer-rich-vogel-leaves-bioware

BioWare Austin is rumored to be laying off staff today - we've checked with EA but have not yet gotten a response - and now the Star Wars: The Old Republic studio has just lost its executive producer, Rich Vogel.
Vogel, who oversaw all aspects of the game prior to and after its launch last December, confirmed his departure to Gamaustra. Vogel is a veteran with more than 20 years of industry experience. He's worked on MMOs like Meridian 59 at 3DO, Ultima Online at Origin Systems and Electronic Arts, and Star Wars Galaxies at Sony Online Entertainment. His last seven years were wit BioWare Austin.
EA took a big gamble on Star Wars, and the publisher remains confident that the game will be around for a long, long time. That said, subscriber numbers have fallen and the studio has openly admitted that it will consider free-to-play for the title.
BioWare Austin had previously announced restructuring and layoffs back in May and it's not entirely clear if this is related to that or a new restructuring. EA never said how many were laid off then. Vogel's departure, however, is apparently not connected to the layoffs.
We'll bring you more on this as we get it.

OMG WHAT A SURPRISE:

http://www.dsogaming.com/news/star-wars-the-old-republic-goes-free-to-play-this-fall/

BioWare announced today that it will be expanding the story-driven, massively multiplayer online game Star Wars: The Old Republic by adding a new Free-to-Play option this Fall.

Players want flexibility and choice. The subscription-only model presented a major barrier for a lot of people who wanted to become part of The Old RepublicTM universe.

Toatally unexpected.

So apparently they have no gay companions (not even a player-sexual) despite EA using them as their defense against everything. Wonder if you will have to buy them with microtransactions.

Isn't there some famous PR fuck up quote, claiming that there is no gay in Star Wars? Gotta protect the brand from deviants, you know.

the appalingly ignorant gathering place for hateful ciscentered rape culture enablers, the RPGCodex, provides their transphobic/cryptopatriarchal take on the matter

No, a former mod said the word "gay" doesn't exist. Fair enough that a galaxy far far away doesn't have a word from old french, though it raises questions like "What's a falcon" ("Lesbian" not existing would raise less questions, being named for the island of Lesbos).

Someone Reap the Main Quest lines so I can play as Imperial Agent offline without rubbing my elbows with unwashed 12 years old consoltard masses. Hell I would buy this SP game as there is 16 classes with unique story.

Cross-postin' like a baws:

GF dug up http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=513463 for some epic gloating action.

Some select quotes:

Ok so, does this mean new content is never coming?? is new content just going to be premium pets, potions, weapons, lollipops and so on??? Will we ever see same gender relationships (and would it be "pay for gay"??)??? Can we expect new class content??

Our team is extremely excited about this new plan.

Keep telling yourself this ...and your team. We all know what it means, we been warning you for 7 months...

We are working hard and having a lot of fun preparing new content and items for the game.

Translation, we are tying to stop this ship from sinking, we hope you will buy this new hat or monocle next week.

We believe that this is the right direction for our game – more choices, more options and more ways to customize your play experience to suit your play-style.

Instead of giving you what you already paid for and are still paying for we are gonna spend your money putting more ""Buy Cartel Coins"" buttons in the game.

May the Force be With You.

You need it more then us ... start updating your CV sunshine.

YOU JUST DESTROYED THIS GAME!!!!!! This game had so much promise but not anymore. I haven't been this mad in a long long time. Now I am simple outraged. Pathetic, Greedy, Insane and so many other word and most not even worth stating here!!! I can just picture it now.. all my hard work completely worthless as you turn all those achievements in a meaningless labor especially when you will of course be adding the store to buy in game material. I can only think of one game that is free to play and not 100% laughable. and even then those free to play games reek of nothing but greed from the game company.. how can we take advantage of the fan base to get as much money as possible without very really offering anything of substance. this is just disgraceful. And a slap in the face. Daniel Erickson and the rest of the team that wants this should be immediately fired.... While I personally bear them no ill will they are leading this game into the ground and cleaning out the people who are letting this happen is probably the only way to save this game.. Personally I feel like all hope is lost and will probably never support bioware again. Somebody please tell me this is just a dream.

Wow, there are a lot of people who have to spend 15 dollars a month to be happy.
