G4tv.com managed to score a great interview with The Old Republics Lead writer Daniel Erickson from this years GamesCom. Daniel talks mostly about how different The Old Republic will be from other MMO’s as well as the game’s combat, writing process, gameplay consequences, and much more.

“We have this very long story arc that we can bring things back to. You may have completely forgotten that when you were at level eight, that you killed this guy you didn’t need to kill. His family hasn’t forgotten it and they’re going to find you 20 hours later and hunt you down, and you’re going to have to deal with the ramifications. One of the really fun things there is that you may be a completely different person at that point. You might have decided to give up your crazy ways from when you were a kid. And now at level 40, you’re a pretty good and these guys come to you. You have to decide, ‘Okay, am I going to cover that up? How am I going to handle it?’ These are the things that really make the galaxy feel alive.”

Hey everyone, it’s been awhile since I’ve posted and I apologize, I’ve been extremely busy lately. It’s a little late but none the less here is the most anticipated video yet with the first looks at The Old Republic compliments of Gamespot.com.

My impression of the game so far is, it looks great and I would probably play it. I love the fact that the whole game is voiced. Very cool.

Check out the video below:

“One of the most hotly anticipated PC games on GameSpot at the moment is Lucasarts and BioWare’s upcoming massively multiplayer online role-playing game, Star Wars: The Old Republic. Mixing George Lucas’ epic sci-fi universe with BioWare’s successful role-playing experience seems like a pretty safe bet after the success of the Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic series. That game mixed successful MMO pillars, such as combat, progression, and exploration with something BioWare excels at: compelling, narrative-rich storylines. Announced late last year, details about the game have slowly emerged since then, and so far, we’ve seen a number of Empire and Republic classes, including the bounty hunter, smuggler, trooper and Sith. We finally got a brief play of SWTOR as a Sith warrior at GamesCom 2009 in Cologne, Germany.”
