    I think his Roadmap should be taken as every other one he has made. With a grain of salt. I think at this point they just open up an AI and say "Write a producer letter full of empty promises and cartel market sales" and then post what it writes.

      I'm just going to go ahead and ask the obvious question, although we both know you won't reply. How do you expect the developers to say when 7.6 story is coming, when no one knows when the VA strike is going to end?? You have a complete arrogance to yourself and that is infuriating, the gall to demand something that you are not in the negotiations on.

      ​@@BoomyNation I wish you were this hard on other games like WoW, haven't heard anything about the bugs with their last update that they refuse to release or the lack of content regarding story in that game. Remember WoW is an MMORPG, and most of what they do is focus on the MMO aspect, very little story for the players of that game to enjoy, and with all the bugs from their last patch I see people leaving that game left and right. I still have a friend who hasn't been able to log into their account for 3 months, and the WoW people say we'll eventually get to it but make sure to stay subscribed for these "awesome" updates coming, really??
      As for this person's comment. So tell me Boomy which is it. Does the player base want communication about "what to expect", or can the devs stay silent when they don't know anything?? Because let's be honest all this player base does is move the goal post whenever something does happen so they have more reason to complain.

      @@AdachiSimp See as much as I want to believe that, it's like the player base who say they don't trust anything the devs say. I don't trust the majority of the player base. As many when asked will admit yeah, I'll move the goal post unless I get 100% of what I want.
      Like 95% of this player base is entitled, and I lose interest (if I ever had any) on what they say immediately. Here's a perfect example, 3 updates to fix bugs, well hold on many players on this channel, and channels like swtor central have said they were on the PTS!! If this is the case why are there so many bugs to fix then?? Stop acting like you have the moral high ground as a player.
      Now specifically to you, Really you want ANY update?? What would you like them to say, "hey adachisimp we have decided you are the most special person in the world we're gonna violate our NDAs with EA just so you can be on your high horse and tell you that due to the VA strike we have no idea when the story will happen for 7.6, however we thought it important to risk our jobs and our families livelihood just to make sure your silly ego got filled".
      You need to be honest and stop lying because you're making yourself look silly, because everyone knows you and the player base (fair or not is datable) would not have been happy with a "Hey guys just wanted to let you know that we have no idea when we will be able to finish the story for 7.6"
      Like sorry, if you're that oblivious to the stuff going on regarding what the developers of this game (or any game) go through with NDAs and things of that nature that's something you need to figure out and fast.

    The 7.7 sounds like a day's worth of progression, but since the hardcore among us have multiple Outlanders of various factions and persuasions, we could easily get a week's-worth of action out of it! It should prove a ripe source of conquest points - never mind the regular conquest-battering we'll still be doing with our regular characters! Oh, Darth Malgus would be proud of us!

    I really do not care when SWTOR updates its story. There are so many other games out there that I am enjoying. Diablo. Dragon Age. Total War: Warhammer 3. To name just a few. If SWTOR puts out new (and significant) story, then I will come back. But I am done running around doing the same content for cosmetics. And I will not be spending money in the Cartel Market. All that remains is if I will keep being a sub. With the Canadian dollar falling below the 70 cent mark, budgetary reasons may force my hand. Sad, but that is life in this crazy world. Thanks for the video. Good work as always. Take care and a very merry Christmas to all. And a happy new year if we do not get a video before 2025.

    You may be right about the story releasing much later than we'd hoped, but it could just be us being pessimistic (and rightly so). I am hoping that we get our story in January, alongside some news about 7.7. Worst case in my optimistic point of view? The 7.6 story was delayed until 7.7 but mixed in with the 7.7 story, giving us a longer and crunchy update for us to dive into.

    To me it sounds like a shift in focus
    The art modernization is pretty much to attract new younger players
    There’s a lot of content for new players and by the time they go through all the content, it’s to be expected that they spend some money through the cartel store and maybe even sub for a few month
    It’s EA after all : minimum effort, maximum money

    I stopped caring about the story tbh. While I loved this game due to their character "modernization' completely ruining my characters, my immersion of role-playing I unsubbed. Because the game became absolutely unplayable for me. also seeing the forums with Eric saying they won't convert, and complete radio silence. I just want a toggle to remove the changes because I hate them and it ruined the game for me. if I don't hear any news of a toggle for the game guess will have to uninstall. Just this update with their "character modernization/aging pc's, npcs and comps" ruined the whole game for me. unless if there is news of a toggle to revert the changes. I'm out it's been a fun 8 years, but I'm out (for now). Also want a toggle so players can have choice, because some people like the new look, and I don’t want them to loose it. Jsut a toggle or at least news of one being worked on is all I ask for.

    Man IDK for some reason this seemed like maybe something you could cover, but it seemed inevitable that we get reskins. One of the outfits that surprised me was the remnant inquisitors lords robe set. The textures on that set are brilliant and worlds ahead of what the game has in general and it shows really bad. Buit not so bad now that they redid skin because my chiss actually looks like it fits in better. If you notice, people aren't even buying outfits with lower resolutions. So naturally it is showing the playerbase wants better textures, and it is time we have that. That is one of the things that always kept me from playing, the game always looked like a joke.
    Granted I didn't play WOW though either and I guess that smoothed out peoples desires or something but yeah that game has always pretty much looked like shit too. If you look at fortnite which is pretty much the standard for lower res cartoony looking graphics, it is miles better than this.
    Some of the loot I get from older planets leveling alts is like WTF why is this even in the game it is so horrible, and to think this stuff was ever desirable in 2008 maybe, but 2011 ish?
    People voting with their wallets, and they don't want low res shit and so it will all continue to improve. If you look at a lot of the hot items lately they been adding chrome, pearlescent, metallic, and matte and that I bet is the only thing alot of people will wear and it just looks so out of place.
    Which brings me back to where I started, this Remnant inquisitors outfit is mainly matte textures. I know it was tough on some of the people and change is hard but the rewards that everyone wants have good textures. I am not sure how they got away with some of these pets and mounts in the past but I just don't see that happening. Even with the life day assets. Some might collect them. Or a rare item might still look like that, but people don't ahve it out. lol

    This game is becoming an ordinary world, nothing more because it's crap, there's nothing in it than since Swtor came out for the first time, they even repeat the same mistakes, they didn't draw any conclusions, including modernizing the game to a 64-bit and 128-bit engine and a new graphics engine, Unreal engine 5 or another, the content is just funny gibberish and a terrible advertisement for cheap dog food. There is potential in this game, but definitely not with this Broadsword team or with the corporation and supervision of Ea and in the further part of the hypocrites Disney+.
