Ah, Star Wars: The Old Republic.
Would that I had an extra $15/mo lying around. Drop by one of my threads, and give me your full thoughts, eh English?

Ruben: Picking a Sith generally has certain advantages over Jedi as of now.
1) Designers seem to give the Sith cooler armours. The new armours that were released with 1.2 were absolutely hideous on the republic side, while the Imperial ones were actually cool. Bioware had said they will be working towards a new direction in armour design for the Republic, so as of now, Imperials have cooler/deadlier looking armours.
2) Faction Imbalance. More people seemed to be attracted by the idea of being a bad guy and thus, they all went to play Imperial characters, or Imps, as we call them. You're more likely to find a groupie to do quests with and level faster.
3) Same as above. Except it transcribes into PvP and in Pre 1.2 Open World situations it's not surprising to see 20 Imperials killing 5 Jedi. Imperials are able to level faster in warzones due to higher amount of players (and also higher amount of quality players) so they win more often. The Republic side tend to skip warzones as a result.
But hopefully, the legacy system you already know about will help bring some balance to that. People are unlikely to fill their 8 character slots with all Imperial characters anyway. Time should fix this problem.
Chuk: Hello! How did you know which game we were discussing?! Why can't I just stay on this thread...
. Are you wanting a full review? I'm probably better at answering specific questions though. Anyway, I'll hope over in a bit.

I quite like the Tionese/Rakata stuff for Jedi Knights. I think they're kind of cool.
Hehe. There's always jokes going around in the Republic, when the open world pvp is still available. Why aren't there any imps at this time of night? Answer: They're all kids who have school tomorrow.
Well, that figure was probably out-dated. It was from January, I think. The figure was more like 550,000 Sith Warriors and 510,000 Jedi Knights. Only a 40k difference
