That’s all you’ve got? Pffft! Voyager was trash, to be perfectly honest (though I still watch the series once a year) and Enterprise (while boring initially) bounced back pretty well. As for your points...

- The Doctor: They did make him a bit of a drama queen in the later seasons, but he was the only consistently good…

This I did not know! To be honest, I play in a way where heroes are permanently affected by adventures, so any statuses they receive in dungeon they keep forever (or until it is replaced by something else). The only exception I make is when a hero gets something from one of the services in town (like Syphilis), for…

Perfect! I’ll start out with... Star Trek ‘09 is an abomination because they describe multiple universe theory and time travel as being hand in hand, something that has been explicitly rejected in ever instance of both ever shown on screen, and therefor Star Trek ‘09 is non-canon and should be spit upon with fervor!…

I agree, the kid is just super slow and doesn’t play as often. I play to explore too, I just tend to do it more quickly and will wait for a lull to adjust equipment/skills. I am a bad friend, and I now consider myself to be your bad friend as well!

Good Dungeon Crawling to you then, and a swift and fruitful payday!

Don’t let it, because I think people over-do the difficulty because of sloppy play. Don’t overextend yourself and the game will be difficult but fun. I mean, if you’ve played a basic RPG before you know the type of skills you may want to take in. Healer, Tank, Ranged, and whatever floats your boat. Most characters…

I have one friend in particular who make the experience agonizing. I tried to be the good friend, but the guy would stop constantly to re-examine all of his skills and loot and make adjustments. Honestly he would probably stop for 15 minutes for every hour of game play. I couldn’t move on without him because he wanted…

Also (to add to Punishthefalse’s comment), you go into each dungeon with a very specific goal and you get to choose which dungeon (and goal) you want to take on with your available party members. There will be dead ends that you may have to go into to hit a “Explore 90% of the Rooms” dungeon goal, or it could be…

How DARE you besmirch the good name of Mr. Manning??? He is a God-King, and should you speak ill of him he shall be your DOOM!

THAT is your reply? Ugh... I must have a good imagination! I thought you were going to be clever! Well, clearly it’s not the first time I’ve been disappointed in something...

I thought I was so clever remembering Ord Mantell too... ARRGGHH!!! I bow to you and swear fealty, as you are clearly beyond me in Star Wars recall. I mean it is mentioned twice in the first half of the first movie! I... I can’t... even... (sob)...

Well... time to abandon my love of Star Wars and just devote myself…

DAMMIT! Massive fail on my part! It was the first freaking planet ever mentioned aloud! Oh... I’m going to have to take a length of sword in my guts over this one...

Thank you for being understanding. Honestly, I think the vitriol may have been different if we hadn’t been through a 10 year slump without a Battlefront game. I have no doubt that this game will never be what I want it to be, but I have hope that a sequel will have to address those concerns or be a flop. I don’t know…

Have... have you read the comments? Most comments agree that this is an empty arcade shooter within Star Wars trappings, not a beloved game that encompasses the breadth of the Star Wars universe. There are people who like it, sure. There are people who like Dora the Explorer too. Having a soul is not defined by having…

Well... I suppose that depends on what you consider to be “of note”. There were 6 planets that we actually saw visited, but the game is not limited to those (just as it was not with Sullust). The 6 I am referring to are Yavin 4, Tatooine, Hoth, Dagobah, Bespin, and Endor’s Sanctuary moon. Dantooine, Alderaan, and Ord…

In response to your concerns regarding imbalance, it’s not necessarily a concern they appear to have now. On the Hoth Assault map, I think we can all agree that the Empire is at an advantage in that battle. In terms of Ewoks, they assist the Rebellion (as they did in previous titles) but at a reduced damage to a…

I understand that, I was admitting that I have a bias in this discussion. Still, the fact that this game cannot do what a game 2 console generations old could do should be damning.

Here’s is my primary argument to your comment:

“The game sounds exactly like Star Wars, and looks exactly like Star Wars, so that’s the soul, to me.”

Were I to be able to mimic your mother’s voice and wear a mask of her face, I would no more be your mother and would likely creep you out. This is the new Battlefront to…

You may like it, but let’s not fall down the “you haven’t played it” pit. To me, the game is awful, and I am using the previous two iterations of the game as a basis. You may think that is unfair, but those were two fantastic games that pulled off way more than this new Battlefront has been capable of despite being…

So they came out with a total of four planets (and let’s be honest, Jakku isn’t any different than Tatooine) and they won’t have another new environment until Summer of this year? And then it is only going to include Cloud City and you have to wait until Fall for the Death Star.

It kind of seems like they’ve flubbed…
