Designing the Dark Side

Inspired by notorious characters such as Emperor Palpatine and Darth Vader, the Sith Inquisitor and Sith Warrior take different approaches to their rise to power. The Sith Warrior achieves victory through pure aggression and might while the Sith Inquisitor excels by cunning ambition and Force manipulation.

From storyline, to art style, to combat tactics, each design decision was made to support the dark side themes of power, domination, and destruction.

Watch Developer Dispatch: Designing the Dark Side, and learn how Star Wars: The Old Republic developers created this dominating force.

Almost makes me want to play a sith**** almost.

Lets just hope the devs at Bioware don't travel down the same path that Mythic did with Warhammer online.

If you are not up to speed on MMO flops Let me tell you all about Warhammer. The mythic devs spent so much damn time developing all of the Chaos Classes that the Order looked like early beta versions in comparison and just from these videos it seems that Bioware is being "tempted by the dark side" so to speak. Yeah sure its cool to develop bad ass looking suites with spikes and lights and sweet lightsabers but just dont leave the light side of the force wanting because then the same thing will happen like in warhammer the wait time for order is instant to get into the server while the chaos wait time is over 3 hours!

Oh you just wait, there will be an equally awesome Lightside Dev dispatch video soon enough I reckon.

In Bioware we trust....
