I remember lots of people putting lots of time and effort into making galaxy maps around here.

How does this one compare to ours?

Extremely simplistic, but fairly accurate. It certainly looks very pretty, but when you get down to it its a map constructed to showcase only 14 planets out the hundreds found within Star Wars canon.

Still, it gets me even more excited for this game, something previously thought impossible.

And then I see a gameplay video, and feel a resounding 'eh'.

very pretty.

A friend of mine beta tested TOR. And then canceled his order.

lol..

Not a resounding endorsement to say the least.

That said, the map is very pretty.

The game will play like World of Warcraft. So, if you enjoy that, you'll like this.
