SWTOR: Jedi, Sith, and the Moral Nature of MMO Gameplay (Mythic Mind Games, ep. 3)

Dr. Andrew Snyder in conversation with Ian Miller

In this episode

Star Wars: The Old Republic (SWTOR) closes the Old Republic mini-series: eight fully voiced Jedi and Sith class stories, companions who question your choices, and a Force war where light and dark play collide with politics, empire, and the moral nature of MMO gameplay.

In this Mythic Mind Games conversation, Dr. Andrew Snyder is joined by Ian Miller to weigh Trooper and Consular favorites, the Jedi Knight arc from Coruscant politics to the nihilist Sith Emperor, light-side Sith inside a dark theocracy, Imperial Agent intrigue, and whether vicious dark-side play reveals character or is just another way to inhabit the story. WoW-like systems, richer Star Wars storytelling: the moral weight rides on class plot and companion talk more than the grind.
