I remember when people where complaining about Kotet and Kotfe back in 2015 and 2016 and I can bet that now they are missing the storytelling of those expansions

[ItsYaBoiPhoenix]

This update has been excellent, but the icing on the cake for me is that I made it into this video at 5:03 My day is made!

[Aelrandir]

My favorite new armor set of this update is actually the new reputation armor set. I was shocked to see such a nice looking set be obtainable in game and not as a cartel market set. The downside though is since it's a reputation set it's going to take forever to get thanks to the good 'ol weekly reputation limit that we all love so much.

[MjollTheLioness-oy]

I really like the new mini map. It makes navigating the areas easier for me as a newer player. At least I don't have to pull up the world map so often now.

[zerg]

I can’t believe you are still making content on this, I used to watch years ago when I played swtor more. Keep it up!

[Aikurisu]

I'll admit, I'll end up getting that new mando armour, purely so I can finally give a twi'lek a truly protective helmet that doesn't clip with their lekku...

... part of me dies a little inside whenever I see one running around with one of those brimmed hats.

[lexy]

they really need to update player models

Updating the game after over a year of not playing. Even then, ive only been playing a 10+ year old character that still hasnt finished his main quest. No matter the time, it always feels good to return to Swtor, even tho im probably the most casual of casual players ever.

[kisti]

You missed mentioning number of weekly PvP matches no longer restricted for f2p players! It's the reason I'll be trying out the game again.

[rymesyt]

Hey Swtorista! Appreciate this video. Im rewatching the entire 'The Wonders of Swtor' series following Javiik and it totally reignited my spark for this game. Thank you for that!

[Jistarii]

As someone with 19k hours. I really enjoy these changes. I was a big ranked player and enjoy this change. Mini map was way overdue, very happy with this patch

[astrius]

I have been playing for a while, yet always learn something useful here. Thanks for uploading!

[Sheggide]

The ceremonial beskar dagger looks like the daedric dagger from Skyrim.

[Malaena]

My only issue is that the destroy box should not have been attached to crafting. I liked it not letting me move items that could not be deconstructed before. Seems strange to put them together, first day I did destroy a couple greens before I realized it. Just make a destroy box button in the inventory.

[Lasherluke]

THANK YOU, Ranked Pvp was one of the most toxic enviorments in swtor.

[Dalamar]

SWTOR is amazing game, coming back to it each year and its always worth it

[KeySoMetal]

Me and my friends are planning on finally hopping on SWTOR after like 5-6 years. We haven’t play it since we were kids. Is the game still like active play-wise?

I mean it’s not much of a huge concern to me but I just wanna know bcuz I enjoy running into random people on quests and see others exploring the worlds when playing the game.

[chauci]

Omg it has been a long time since I saw a video of you. Keep the great job

[RippednBuff]

For a new player starting a fresh character, once max level, how long would it take to be fully geared enough to compete in PvP without getting slaughtered.

[waynewalker]

What is the guild that sworista is in? I am looking for a new group to return to this wonderful game with.
