What I probably should have asked :-P

Now that I have really stirred things up, what exactly do I get for my $15.
From what I understand I am a character in the star wars universe and chose
my life? How long have ppl played and what is the ultimate aim? I see a lot
of posts about money and have read the games web site but I still cannot
picture it all.

Thanks heaps for any help provided.

It's a game. It involves many people from widely varying backrounds,
with widely different ideas of morality. Great graphics, some
challenfes. The game is the first I've enjoyed in about 5 years. There
is no ultimate aim for me. There are no winners and losers, just a fun
way to challenge my thinking skills, and ability to cooperate with
others (if that's the direction I feel like going today heh).

Thank you all for those responses.

nib, I saw messages about buying ships etc so was wondering if that may have
been a big part, making money that is, and weather it is a struggle to do.
As I have already exposed my limited intellect, does this game have a steep
learning curve?

( I sure I havn't asked another stupid question. The back of my head is
swelling from nib's hand 😛 )

Reasonable questions all.

You get, just as you said, the ability to create an alter ego... or a
character in each of the galaxiese available in the game. I think
there are 30 or so now.

The objective, at least as I see it, is to live a life in an imaginary
world where you interact with other player's characters. YOu can role
play what ever personality youo wish to role play... or you can just
be yourself.

It is kind of hard to comprehend without actually experiencing it. I
suggest you go ahead and try it oout. As I remember, I think youo get
a free month don;t you?
