Honestly, I’m surprised The Old Republic is still running after all these years. I remember a lot of skepticism when it launched, especially with EA trying to position it as a “WOW-killer” given how successful other games that tried to do that were. Maybe it was just bitter KOTOR fans, but I remember a lot of predictions that it was going to crash and burn right out of the gate. Still, it’s a shame that people are getting laid off. Hopefully, they can find other positions in Bioware/EA.

Broadsword has done absolutely nothing for Ultima Online. So my guess they are going to do the same to SWTOR.
