[QUOTE="TrippyHippy, post: 6160727, member: 27252"] I't's all entirely about things said on this forum which people can read for themselves, if they want to check out what people have said. It's [I]insinuated [/I]in what you say. You aren't being asked to invest in anything - the product is sold as exactly the product it is, and the plan they are implementing is clearly explained in any preview or promotion they have done. If you like what they have to offer then buy it. If you don't like it, don't buy it. But it isn't a valid complaint that the product doesn't meet the demands of gamers who [i]don't appreciate[/I] what they are actually trying to do with the line despite it being explained repeatedly in plain language. The point is that the Force is represented in the game in exactly they way it is in the original movies, and the setting it is emulating. It is not being unfaithful to canon - people who are demanding to play fully fledged Jedi are. Your vision of the game is not in line with the setting they are faithfully emulating. To say "you can't play Jedi" in EotE is not a fair reflection of the game's intent or what can actually be played out of the box. [I]You can play Jedi [/I]- it's just to reach that status it takes [I]patience and time [/I] to reach that status - which again, is entirely true to the setting. It's not a question of gamer's making their own choices how they want to play the game - it's about breaking the integrity of the setting, and breaking what The Force is meant to represent. It takes two to tango. You review your comments and I'll review mine - then we'll get back to each other. In the case of Crothian, I haven't read anything yet that hasn't been a negative and unfair representation of the game on this thread -so I guess I'll have to give him longer before I respond.
