I reserved my copy of the standard edition and I'm thinking of going back to the store and changing my reservation for the latter, if it has anything worthwhile Example: I know that the CE only has the exclusive CE "wearables" in the game, but what about the other stuff? The add in PC Gamer says that collector's edition has 30-day free trial. But does standard edition have that too? Does anyone think that these wearbles are actually going to be worth our while after the first few hours of playing? I don't wanna play an extra $15 if all I get is a "Jawa's Robe of Craptitude" to wear for the first day and then throw away. Note: I'm asking for opinions, since it's prolly not been decided yet. Any help would be appreciated, even from past experiences with "exclusive" items (from past games etc)

JediKnightMark Quote \| Reply \|	Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Collector's Edition replied on: 2/6/2003 5:33:57 PM ok, cool. But does that mean that the one month of free play WON'T be included with the standard edition? Not to mention the in-game wearables. All it says is "...items that only your avatar can wear." This could simply be a marketing ploy to get us to buy the Special Ed. Maybe these wearables are just noob items that everyone gets that can't be traded to others? I know how crafty advertizing can be sometimes by making people think they are getting something as a bonus when they're really not, so that's why I'm asking.

(There will be a free month, by the way) This was for a non-collector's edition game. By the way, just wanted to say hi. It's been awhile since you posted using a hick accent on one of the Beta updates, Blade, but that extremely funny.

Perhaps if the wearables are things to go on OVER one's efficient and useful stuff I'd consider them worthwhile
Keaggan Rogue Jedi Knight Quote \| Reply \|	Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Collector's Edition replied on: 2/8/2003 1:03:46 PM That is interesting. I was guessing that the "wearable" would be some type of jewelry or some other item that would go over your out fit. Not any clothes themselves. I am sure that they thought many people would want to change there out fits from time to time. They have professions for such a thing. But who knows... Keaggan, Rogue Jedi Knight Project NeXus
