I can't look it up right now because work blocks gaming related sites, but I think it's on the official website somewhere. Anyway, the gist of the matter is that they're aiming to add in extensive on the fly character customization specifically to avoid the hour-long search for healers (for example) that other MMOs have problems with. I don't know how it'll work, but it sounds like that's something they're trying to address from the very beginning. You should be able to go do things no matter what class mix you have. We still may end up having an enormous Jedi population, but it shouldn't matter too much if the class imbalance doesn't break the mechanics.

Well, the cinematic element is certainly very nice. Now to actually see some gameplay and features.

Yeah, the comments were all "force barrier" this, and "power draining" that. *NM*

I remember them at least partially addressing that.

Their solution is to make the other classes bad ass and level the playing field.

And I don't see why they can't level the playing field to some extent.

I want to play as a non-Jedi or Sith force user.

That would be an interesting twist. Maybe play as a Witch of Dathomir, or some other variation. *NM*

How much of that will I actually be able to do though?

Heh, probably not. That's why I said the trailer didn't really have any game info. Just cool is all.
