Ryzom VS Star Wars: The Old Republic

Ryzom, A weird, French, pre-WoW MMORPG with a unique setting and mechanics. The original company went bust, but they open sourced it and it's still being developed by the community. The art holds up surprisingly well for a game from 2004. Source: almost 3 years ago

Did you download from steam or swtor.com? Steam has a "Inspect Installation" tool that will fix a bad install. The SWTOR launcher has a similar tool (I think it is a little gear in the corner somewhere, but I am not sure. I use the Steam launcher). Source: 5 months ago

Interesting. I feel like we've had some improved communication but when was the BioWare logo replaced with the Broadsword logo on swtor.com? I think that was a fairly recent change and while I think it's great swtor.com actually reflects the current developer it took at least 5 months for this to happen. I don't consider that impressive at all. I expected that would be updated within 30 days of the studio... Source: 5 months ago

Oh, also if you decide to subscribe, subscribe through the swtor.com official website, NOT Steam. I promise you that it will be less of a headache. Subbing to SWTOR through Steam is notoriously buggy for some reason. Source: 10 months ago

What I would want to know now that it is official is what happens to the business model. Granted it remains a freemium game at its core and swtor.com as a website is going nowhere (why would it?), who's going to get the money from the subscription? Source: 10 months ago

Based on this tweet from SWTOR's Lead Writer it sounds like the employment transition from BioWare/EA to Broadsword occurred yesterday. So yes, this is a done deal and SWTOR is now officially developed by Broadsword. Perhaps they will be updating swtor.com and forums.swtor.com to remove the BioWare logo and replace it with Broadsword logo in the not-too-distant future. Source: 10 months ago
