Or going further back: Remember Star Wars Galaxies?

The game that was shut down less than a week before Star Wars The Old Republic released? You're not wrong about the other stuff, but this one definitely wasn't just a big patch.

No, I'm referring to the New Game Enhancements update that completely reworked SWG to play more like WoW. That was a much larger gameplay change than Overwatch 2 or CS 2.

Man... I miss SWG sometimes.

My Steam avatar is still to the day my SWG character.

It's the only MMORPG I ever paid a monthly subscription to play.
