Sadly, I didn't join you on the Imperial side. But I wanted to beta test my characters in situation.
For Mursty, my smuggler, loved the story, the voice (Nathan Fillion style rocks
) & companion. Really went really with the ideas I had for him, might just need to tweak him a little bit for his motivations. I wasn't able to give the look that I had in mind at first, but I used what they gave me and it ended none the less, that's Mursty, that's my guy.
The play style was a bit weird at first with covers, but I enjoyed it for the most of it. Especially when I got Corso, it helped make things easier.
For Barkoy, my trooper, I hadn't really any ideas for him except I wanted him to be a good little soldier type. The voice & story made me go in auto mode and the result was a really nice guy, pro military, doing always the right thing. Might just need to give him an edge but the class story might provide me that. The play style was pretty straight forward.
For Braaknatt, my jedi consular. I had a harder time enjoying it. Going full light side, made it a bit dull. Where in the trooper it gave a "yes sir" man, it still felt right but the preacher for the consular welt a bit boring. I still view that it should be that way, but I might be rather use my Shadow Consular, especially that it looks that more people are gonna roll sage. Will also depend on how many are gonna spec in healing. I did the Esseles with him, got to test healing. I was surprised how weak the healing is at low level. But the play style was fun.
Finally there is Shraun, at first I levelled them all out of the starting zone but when we got the extra day, I wanted to see if sentinel was really the way I wanted to go. In the end, it's definitely yes.
I really enjoyed it, I might have spoiled myself, but it only left me wanting for more. The story was great even if at first on Coruscant it felt a bit blah (now I know I have to pay a little bit more attention on what's happening then), it really made me feel like a Jedi Knight. It allowed me to be what I had in mind. The play style the same. The companions liked the two that I got even if before the beta, I thought I would not like the second that I might use her on my guardian. But it's for that kind of things, that I'm happy to be beta test Shraun.
Now I'm ready for the game to go live.
