Return of star wars game

Star Wars The old republic is now free to play sort of.

Will it attract new players or encourage veteran players to return?

Dropped it after the abysmal writing that was "knights of the fallen empire" expansion. Aint no coming back that mess.
 
I won't go back as they moved to East Coast US servers only for my region and the lag from Australia is really bad. In it's peak it had an Oceanic server but those days and the game population to support that has long gone.

Seems they have 2 North America servers and 3 EU ones left.

My heart skipped a beat when I saw the ad on Steam...only because I misread the ad as Knights of the old Republic...thought someone had done a reboot definitive version of KoTR like they just did with the Mafia series ... I still live in hope.

HK47...we miss you buddy :)

Hasn't it been f2p for several years now? Or have the increased the offering for f2p recently?

I played it heavily in first few months of release, but dropped off after levelling a few characters (mix of a bad guild and lacking endgame content).
I've popped back once a year or so, I think my main is a few hours into the Fallen Empire expansion.

Reality is though this was never much of an MMO. It was a single-player (or co-op at best) with some social functions added on.
 
I originally left when the Starfighter Combat expansion came out because it was such a crushing disappointment. Just wanted something more like Jump to Lightspeed, than just a PvP arena. However, I went back last month and started play through both the knights expansions and doing other classes (I only completed the Jedi one before).

Surprisingly, I'm really enjoying it.
