The Old Republic Feels the Force in New Preview

Although the release of Star Wars MMO The Old Republic is still far far away, a preview of its current state of development has shown that the Force is strong in developer BioWare.

The past year has shown once again how difficult MMOs are to get right. Anything rushed or too gimmicky will certainly fall by the wayside. Having a strong fan base devoted to a franchise, while helpful, is not enough by itself to guarantee the success of a new MMO (as the poor reception of Final Fantasy XIV demonstrated).

So can The Old Republic, and with it the legions of Knights of the Old Republic (KOTOR) fans and general Star Wars devotees, avoid the pitfalls of previous MMOs and give us the gaming experience that lives up to the increasingly high expectations that surround it?

From the look of the preview video from IGN, I would say it looks promising.
