SWG Pre-CU was just an excellent idea. Instead of been a Jedi straight away, you had to level up your character and become a Master in 4 random professions which you had no way of knowing.

Once you achieved this, you became a Jedi and were properly powerful, though if you died often you would lose your "Jediness". This took bloody ages to achieve, but it was actually something worthwhile and a badge of honour for those who put the hours in.

NGE ruined the game, and made the Jedi a starting class. There weere people who had put in hundreds of hours work to becoming a Jedi, then it was wiped and people started brand new Jedi characters. It became a joke and is still known in the game development industry as one of the biggest blunders that a game company ever made. Conservative estimates say that they lost 40-60% of their subscription base near overnight.

This but the game has come on alot in the last 2 years and so much more to do than in those days.

I do remember the NGE though as my 1st character Depii was 1/2 way through the village quests. I was only a casual player and only had 1/2 the boxes needed for Jedi and had taken me 3 months or so. Then all of a sudden they announced the NGE, and it was impossible to finish the Jedi Village grind as each cycle was 3 weeks so with only 2 weeks notice it was impossible to do. Then Jedi were a starting profession when NGE went live.
When i first started playing it was rare to see a player as a Jedi but now its the 1st profession choice for most. Personally i prefer Medic and Spys are very good if you know how to play. Commando's/Beast master combo is pretty good also with a tanking pet.

If you ever try SWG again and wish to try out the Beast Master profession Damocles, make a character on my server Europe-Farstar, choose entertainer as a starting class (very very easy to /afk macro grind to 90 and can go combat entertainer) and have expertise in Pet making. Or perhaps your old accounts can be reactivated and transfered over (free). Beast Master equipment (to make pets) is very expensive as it requires a ton of units to make (40 crates of canisters, 1 component for pet making takes over 2 million units of top resources) but i am the servers main guy making these so can sort you free (as i do all other guild members)

I'm dropping £130 on the deluxe collectors edition because I'm a sad bastard who has too much money.

£67 on amazon there's no £130 option! so what do you actually get for £130?
