It's free AND it's STAR WARS!!!

I play this game primarily on the launcher, so the "112 hours" is a gigantic (as big as a hutt's bottom that is) understatement.

This is one of the best video games out there. It is severely underrated in my opinion. Now, I understand why it is underrated (It wasn't exactly the perfect heir to SW:Galaxies), but that doesn't take away from how good this game really is. Basically, the game gives you what the Disney sequels were missing... actually stuff that makes Star Wars unique (lightsaber fights, smuggler pistol duels, bounty hunting, etc.).

If you like the prequels, then this game is 100% for you.
If you like the OT more than the prequels, then you will enjoy the Jedi Knight storyline and possibly the Imperial Agent storyline too.
If you like the sequels, well then... get ready for some OG Star Wars...

Everything (minus like the last 1/10th of the game) is voice acted: Droids, Humans, Aliens, Terminals... you name it! If it talks, then it's voice acted. The game actually got some pretty legit voice actors too. (I think it's hilarious that one of the main companions in the game is voice acted by one of the main Hallmark Movie stars thats like in every other Hallmark Movie...) Also, if you like the TV Psych, play Republic Trooper storyline... you'll know who actor is once you meet him. ;)

There's probably little chance of this happening, but if any Star Wars exec or video game maker reads this, just know, THIS is what will keep Star Wars going. Anyone can make a movie or video game franchise set in space or on other planets. But, Star Wars is the only franchise that can make space samurai actually make sense and look cool too. Also, let's not pretend anything else is true... Lightsabers are the only thing that truly separates Star Wars from all else.
