Played the game for a few days - what I thought was a role-playing style game turned out to be a terrible hybrid click-and-shoot experience (terrible in comparison to real shooter games, that is) with more lag, bugs and lack of complexity than I expected from a Star Wars product. Not quite sure what SOE seems to have done, but it's easy to see that the current game is a shell of the game that was originally offered (and even described on the box).Do yourself a favor and buy yourself (or your kids) a real Star Wars game like Battlefront 2 or a well-developed character game like World of Warcraft. I don't mind the $15 cost of the SWG Starter Kit itself, but in no way is this game worth the $15 a month SOE charges for a subscription rate.
