That's a whole lot to take in within the span of about five minutes, and while many of the systems that The Old Republic uses are familiar to MMO players, I can't help but think how overwhelmed I was by my first MMO, and just how much more The Old Republic throws at the you from the get-go. In any other MMO, that would probably suffice, but the moment you set foot in The Old Republic you are faced with quest-givers, future quest-givers with grey quest icons, class-specific story areas that you can't enter, vendors, dialogue trees, half a dozen abilities and hostile NPCs who will attack on sight. Rather, there's a tip system that offers help about an aspect of gameplay whenever the context calls for it.

This is where inexperienced players will hit a figurative force-field. It's unique to each class and, along with the cinematic that follows, sets you on your way to making a name for yourself.

The text briefly explains who you are and in what context you're entering the galaxy. There is, in my mind, no better way BioWare could have kicked off your adventure. The classic scrolling yellow text of the films begins immediately after you've created your character, accompanied by the Star Wars theme. In the grand scheme of things, it's a minor annoyance though. You can't, for example, play as a Jawa or a droid. For a universe with a vast number of established intelligent races of all shapes and sizes, this feels limited. The creator is quite flexible, with a wide range of customization options unique to each race, but you're limited only to strictly humanoid races and a few rather similar body sizes (males at least get a 'fat' option вЂ“ female characters don't even get that). Then you're kicked back to a menu screen to create your character. The cinematics are spectacularly compelling and make me wish Blur, the creators, were contracted to do a feature-length film. The Republic cinematic portrays a need to take back what's lost through planning and tenacity. For Empire players, the focus is on power, control, and anger. Then you choose which faction you're going to play for, and another cinematic sets the tone of your alignment. The opening cinematic, where the Sith appear out of nowhere and reclaim Korriban, introduces you to the conflict between the Empire and the Republic.
