Darth Hater

It's time to start talking about the Super Secret Space Project. Actually details.

For a game that puts such emphasis on the leveling experience and alts, I can't figure out why there were no lower level planatery reputations. We're MMO's, we love filling up empty bars. Give me a bar and I will fill it!

Disappointing that it's only endgame reps. I was hoping each planet would have their own rep while leveing with a quartermaster for rep rewards or something. Meh.

The Codex system has been bugged and broken since beta. As a completionist, you cannot "complete" most planets. A long time ago Damian or something said a "codex cleanup" was coming and that must have been like a year ago.

Also a proper achievement system

Something awesome with space would be huge

Thanks for the update Vox

Confirmed via twitter, the DH guys are gone. No word on this site's future.

It was a fun run haters!

I guess  DH is done...?

On the Gamebreaker podcast this week, Justin mentioned Darth Hater twice and both times the words Darth Hater were bleeped (I assume thats what was bleeped) and it never has been before. I also tweeted Pete and Justin, and no response. Maybe their Curse contract ran out 1/1/13 or something.

Either way something is up.

All I can see that stands out.  "Over the next few months..."  and  "Preordering entitles you to Five days of Early Access"  the rest of it is... blah blah blah... blah blah blah.

Yep... Makeb will be the highlight of SWTOR for 2013.  

I'll take it that this means we'll be farming TFB for another 4 months.  Great...

70% of the launch team development staff has been cut and the game is bordering on life support. What did you expect?

The good: Great to hear that the space project is still in production and it sounds like its not just rail shooter either. Too bad its in the "far future".

The bad: They mentioned on Makeb that they just "played throught the Imperial story". So I'm guessing there will just be 1 story for Republic and 1 story for Empire with no continuation of each class story. Which is what we probably all expected. The class stories served to get us to 50, but I think that's the end of that. Too expensive with too little return.

That is well, well beyond the capability of this gutted development team. I don't see much being added to SWTOR beyond new tiers of gear for pve and pvp, new dungeons, new raids and some new warzones.
