Often harder on Player 2

I playtested for EA and got it through there and the codes were right in the cases. Incidentally the PC version of Battlefront is literally just an empty case with Origin codes inside, the TOR code, and an ad for the Battlefront season pass, which is weird.

Cases? I got it on PC so no physical case. I just assumed I'd get the code by email.

I forgot about how every single thing was voiceovered in this game. They probably single-handedly propped up the entire voiceover industry while this was in dev.

Funny thing, when I got back on my ship, every companion wanted to have 10 conversations with me. In a 30 minute period I romanced Ashara, watched Andronikos go on missions twice, geeked out with archaeologist dude companion, and talked to Khem/Zash and went to Hoth to press a button. I got an entire level just from conversations.

I also remembered how expensive companion missions are and how it feels to be spacepoor (~10k credits).

Should I take the common crystals reward if I don't want the other rewards from a mission?

Yes

E: unless you want the clothing for dress-up. The stats on those items will be far worse than anything you can buy with comms.

Get the data crystals. You can get some decent welfare gear if you don't want to run dungeons and you can buy gifts that sell for up to about $40k for 10 data crystals.

This is what the PC version's case looks like, it basically just contains those 3 slips of paper:



If you bought the game off Amazon or GMG or something the second code is probably still in your games library unused. It's a 16 digit code.

I forgot which it was, but most of the rank 5 pink items will sell for 20-30k on Harbinger, and I've seen a few go for 40k at odd midweek times. If you don't mind sitting and waiting for massive sell-offs and idiot undercutters to clear out.

It really is a great show. I can't stand the spinny lightsabers the Inquisitors have, and not a huge fan of Ezra's blaster saber but I do have to accept it's a kid's show at heart.

Yeah, probably the best course of action. Where did they say kotfe would be done by august? I mean I'd always like something a little different every few years but my impression of BioWare when they first announced kotfe was that they had finally found their viable business model and planned to milk it for years to come. Though I guess you can do that with any storyline I just expected it to be one storyline that goes on for as long its profitable.
