The Good, the Bad and the Ugly

There's plenty of all three in Star Wars The Old Republic . The Good I've played a Bounty Hunter before, but never previously went further than Dromund Kaas. This time around I've enjoyed the class a lot more while following the three rules I set for this character. 1. Always follow through on a job. 2. If the target is wanted dead or alive, dead is better. 3. If possible, kill the client as well. This has led me to take some really mean spirited options that I've passed up on in the past and I've lost count of the number of times a conversation scene has ended with a blaster shot. It's not dissimilar to my experience on the Sith Warrior, except where she chews the scenery and goes all in on being Evil with a capital E, the Bounty Hunter is much more businesslike and her dry, understated ruthlessness just makes the mayhem more entertaining. The overall story arc is something of an excuse plot, but it has a lot of good moments along the way. As is usually the ca...

Too much of a good thing?

A lot of work has gone into the quests in Elder Scrolls Online . But... Quests. Every MMORPG has them, but exactly what they are and how the player obtains and completes them can vary a lot from game to game. Most of the quests I've done in ESO have had a bit of work put into them - there's not much Kill 10 Rats going on here - and that's laudable... up to a point. It's good that a real effort has clearly been made to give reasons why I'm being asked to do the things I'm doing, and even to justify why the person that's asking me doesn't just do it themselves (a question that most MMOs gloss over more often than not) but the problem with this is it often takes a very long time to get from A to B. Basically, a typical quest in ESO goes something like this: "Hello, adventurer. I am [an NPC you'll never meet again], and I serve [someone you've never heard of] of the [organization ditto] from [place you've not been to.] We are here investig...

Remember who you're talking to...

"You look like you'd be at home in a jungle." This was far from my first time on Dromund Kaas. Most recently I was there on my Sith Warrior at the end of 2020, and prior to that I've passed through on a number of other characters over the years. Excluding the starter worlds, this is the planet I've spent the most time on in The Old Republic . On my Warrior I took a completist approach and did all the side missions and Heroics on Korriban, Dromund Kaas and Balmorra. On my Bounty Hunter, I've been more selective. I skipped all of the Heroics on Hutta and most of them on Dromund Kaas, and I also passed up on the Cult of Revan side story on the grounds that my Bounty Hunter isn't interested in Sith politics. I've also been selective about which exploration missions I've done. Partly this was to see if my level stayed a little more in sync on subsequent worlds. It didn't, much. When I emerged from the spaceport I immediately went over to pick up the...
