Let's Play Star Wars Galaxies - part 1: Beginning of the End

Be sure to watch in 720 or 1080p! You can actually read the text then!

So yeah, Galaxies is shutting down. And since I just recently got into Let's Playing Star Wars games and because of my past with Galaxies, I felt the need to make an LP of this game as it fades into history.

Seems like a couple of other guys had the same idea and got started before me. Be sure to check out jnwestray78 and other recent LPers of this game.

the only thing i don't like about this lets play is that you have the chase camera turned on.. For some reason that really bugged me lol

[SuperVaderMan]

@shunos I turn it off fairly soon into the LP, it bugged me too.

[popenge]

would you start up a sw the old republic when it comes out?

[SuperVaderMan]

@popenge Oh yeah I plan to. Maybe not like RIGHT when it comes out, it's good to wait a bit so everyone can try it out and form their own opinions on a game before starting a Let's Play of it.

when you say its shutting down, do you mean you can't play the game, or you just can't play with other people?

[SuperVaderMan]

@TheCap319 You won't be able to play the game anymore. The game in its entirety is going away forever, come December 15th.

Also, if you plan on getting in before this old beast goes, you better not wait too long. If I remember correctly, the game will no longer be accepting subscriptions September 15th, and only people with a subscription before then will be able to play up to the official shutting down date.

Dude, why the ugly character.

[TUBMART]

it looks like han shot first there

[deteccive]

good looking the game but the begaing music lol

[Dulcimerist]

Wow! The beginning of the game is a lot more intense than when I played in 2004!

I might have to return to SWG through the SWGEmu server. It just won't be the same as 8 years ago, but maybe it would be close enough. :)

The music seemed to always sound better when I was on this page of the game. Loooved this game.

that sucks about it closing down. To me, TOR isnt really SW, everybody knows SW as the galactic civil war era, its why we love SW. to me the galacitc civil war is the best era.

A great LP! I wish I had the time to actually have played more of this great game before my trial ran out.  I have been looking into playing the emu version after my little adventure in the game. Thanks for doing this, so that I will have a chance to check out more of the game and thanks for everything else.

[britolitos]

So, we can't play it anymore, thats sad, after I watch your videos, I really wanted to play some SWG...

[SashaRockinOut]
