Well, it was less disasterous before they let everyone start with Jedi. I kinda liked the idea of people having to quest for hours and hours before unlocking the ability to use the force. When every kid with a computer could do it, that seemed like a mistake. Apparently the subscribers agreed with me. ;D

I didn't play it, other than just a little at release, but even I was surprised at the complete overhaul.

with any game like that there's a balance.
a fine line between giving the players enough to keep them coming back, and yet, not so much that they get bored with what they've got.
actually, that was one of the things that I liked about 3rd ed shadowrun.
you started off with enough skillpoints or whatever to make a PC that was good at a thing or two, but wasn't all powerfull. (minmaxed munchkins aside)
star wars went from one extreme of giving people not quite enough stuff... to giving them everything and no where else to go.

actually, most game systems work on similar principles.
try any RP system, if it starts out too slow, no one wants to play 0 level pesants for more than 5 minutes. and you'll have a riot on your hands.
start off too high, and your 100 ton battle-mech will start destroying the local cities just for something to fill the time, plot hooks be dammed.

It is the awesomeness that is both David Duchoveny as a comedian and Orlando Jones in one of the funniest roles I've ever seen him in.

It's a very funny movie- I recommend you track it down. ;D

yes indeed. I just saw it for the first time last weekend. Talk about a funny movie. And the line I quoted was from Sean Williams Scott, he's in it too :)
