*koffkoff* 'scuse me...

Not that I can't afford it, but so far as I can see on steam it's 980yen.

When you say "free to play" do you mean that there isn't a monthly charge, or do you mean, y'know, free. to play. Sorry - I'm new to this MMO thing.

Just wondering. Given the stupid amount of money I can happily throw into the void of mini shopping I have no probs at all spending such a wee amount on a game, so long as it's not rubbish, of course. I'm just wondering if I have things right, here

Totally different game!

That's Knights of the Old Republic (KOTOR), a pretty old now single-player game by the same company. Star Wars: The Old Republic (SWTOR) is the one you want. Clicky linky to see!

Not confusing at all, I know, heh.

ahah! Glad I asked

Do I have to select Japan as my country, or is UK ok?

I don't think it matters at all - at launch, they had regional restrictions, but those are gone now.

Oh! If you decide to make a character to fiddle around, stick with the Begeren Colony server, since that's where all my loot and characters are.

darn it. missed that last line. I went and made a character in some european server. I dont suppose I can export her, no? If not, no biggie - at least I have a feel for how the game works now. Incidentally - I'm digging that intro sequence. Tis pretty groovy, and tbh is what those bloody abominations of movies should have looked like...

Anyway - I'll away and fiddle some more tomorrow and see if my char can be moved. If not, I'll make a new one on Begeren Colony See you there, at some point, probably

Cool! Probably best if we have a couple characters who we only use together - things can get out of sync otherwise.

What class were you thinking of? I'll roll up something on the same starter planet and we can get rolling.

Sith Inquisitor for me. Because: evil black robes and force lighting. What's not to like?

Sweet! I'll roll up a Warrior. So when's a good time to play for you?

[me_in_japan]

Well, this evening is unfortunately not good as I will be jaunting off to the pub then Guardians of the Galaxy, but tomorrow evening could be a goer. How does that suit you?

Works for me! 10 is all right? I've found Steam works pretty well for voice chat, if you use it - my handle is drl317.
