As a new addition to the lineup here at Darth Hater, we are introducing "Force Feedback Friday". In this feature we'll go back over the week's comments on the site and pick out funny, unique, interesting, and insightful posts to share with the entire Darth Hater community. So without further ado, here is the Force Feedback Friday for Oct 9th, 2009.


Legaleese -> English - Zoidberg

blank Mindfields ponders Zoidberg's inability to dissect everything.
"It is indeed very valuable that you have done this Doctor, for those who do not bother reading it in the first place. With such cunning and devotion, I wonder how you have not yet mastered human anatomy." - Mindfields said:2009.10.0209:30

Sith Warrior Developer Blog is Out - Zoidberg


roguejedi86 RogueJedi86 discovered that the blog revealed a little more then some of us may have realized.

"Having finally read the Developer Blog, it is kind of informative. You start as the apprentice of one of the most powerful Sith Lords. The wording is vague on who that is though. Is your Sith Master the Emperor himself, or just one of his lackeys?

'Other Sith you encounter and confront come to revere and revile you, as much asif not more thanyour master. And eventually, the Emperor himself may take notice of your exploits.'

That seems to imply that your Master and the Emperor are not one and the same. But then again, it could also imply that they are the same person(since it doesnt say anything about your Master noticing you). What are yalls thoughts?" - RogueJedi86 said:2009.10.0418:31


The Jedi Order - Zenkei

picklemonster picklemonster points out an interesting translation.
"Im from New Zealand so Bogan side of the Force just makes me laugh

I guess the equivalent comparisons would be for the US if it was called the Redneck side of the Force and for the UK, the Pikey side of the Force LOL

Anyway, very good background article :-)" - picklemonster said:2009.10.0218:17

The Old Republic: A Paradigm Shift for the MMO Genre - Ryan

avaro Avaro hopes BioWare doesn't forget what genre they are shooting for.

"Bioware will succed as long as they manage to capture the MMO aspects aswell." - Avaro said:2009.10.0407:44

Constructive Criticism 2.0 - Zoidberg

tobirHK TaboriHK pulls the drapes back on his character creation preferences
"All I ask is that I can make a hot chick. That's all I ask of any game with a character creator." - TaboriHK said:2009.10.05 16:12

Are The Old Republic's Sith Actually Evil? - Dover

revix2k9 Revix2k9 decided to ignore the controversy and head straight to the evil.
"The 'True Sith' Are evil its plain and simple and im rolling sith and i dont care if im evil " - Revix2k9 said:2009.10.0513:25

Character Creator - Zoidberg

snafu snafu appears to be a bit wary of the population bloom when TOR goes live.
"Dont get too bummed out if no character creator is pre-released for TOR. I imagine that in the hours following release the servers will be crashing due to the overwhelming stress brought on by the masses of players online. You might even be glad to deliberate on the character creation screen rather than trying to move through a sea of bodies in the starter zone as lag cripples your ability to move, click and type." - snafu said:2009.10.0612:53

What MMO Fans can Learn From Single Player RPG Fans - Dover

desvetudo desvetudo may just be the exact person BioWare's marketing department is aiming for.
"...I do hope that BioWare does capture the magic of a single player RPG and merge it with the vastness of an MMO.

I hope I can finally find a character that I love because of his story, whether its my 1st or 4th character. Really tired of the rushing to end game, and trying to take the fastest route skipping everything unecessary." - desvetudo said:2009.10.0617:08

Community Questions/Poll for this week's Podcast - sado

Zihn Zihn shares a worry with many others who are apprehensive about microtransactions.
"...When I play an MMO (at least a main-stream MMO) Im expecting a premium game. Thats what Im paying my subscription for and Id prefer that paying a premium subscription would ensure the quality of the game as time goes on. If mts reduce the subscription rates, then theres always the possibility that the quality will follow..." - Zihn said:2009.10.0807:21

Threat of Peace and more on the way - Zoidberg

cpt. carnage Cpt. Carnage thinks his Magic 8-ball has shown him the future, we'll know if that's true soon
'Developer Dispatch: The Making of Coruscant' for sure :)" - Cpt. Carnage said:2009.10.0814:16

Forum Buzz: Fear of the Unknown - Dover

hewo Hewo looks at both side of his hopes and the hype.
"Yeah I agree as well. My hope for recent movies shows how having high expectations might just piss u off by the time the credits roll around. However having these high hopes and then having them met shows pure genious and I dont feel like I lowered my standards because of relevance of what to compare it to." -Hewo said:2009.10.0817:36


The Galactic Republic - Zenkei
