I’ve been thinking about trying The Old Republic for awhile since World of Warcraft has gotten old and stale to me, but I don’t want to drop $60 on an MMO before I know if i’m going to like it. It’s been a few months since it came out so I went to their website today in hopes of finding a free trial.
I know we have some players here on the Dope, and according to the FAQ on that site every paying subscriber gets three invitations they can send out. Any chance that one of you lovely people has a spare one lying around?
I’d like to second this. My boyfriend wants to try the game but after the experience with Star Wars Galaxies, he’s a bit wary of paying for the game without trying it.
If anyone has a friend trial they’re just dying to give away (after Smapti gets one), could I have it?
I can also provide invites if anyone wants to PM me, although I can’t log in until tonight.
ETA: If anyone trying out the game is interested, the Doper guilds are on the Master Zar Levin server (one for each faction). I don’t know if trial accounts can join guilds but if you decide to stick around (or just have in-game questions) that’s where a few of us are.
I just sent one to Congodwarf’s boyfriend; I’ll go ahead and send out invites to khross, Captain_C and honestgabe while I’m at the page since no one has indicated they’ve done it yet. It looks like each paid player can send up to 25 invites so there are plenty to go around.
