A very familiar feeling jumping into this game/mod mutiplayer. Same shit troll community of a dying game, similar skill based combat except with a lot more options and dynamic gameplay, and a whole lotta fun. Attacks are based on keyboard movement instead of mouse (which I guess is also possible on mnb so maybe some people are already used to that), different fighting styles with different moves, combos, strengths/weaknesses, single dual or staff sabers available, and that's just the melee stuff. There's a bunch of other classes that pew pew lazorz and any given game is action packed, shit blowing up, jedis sith force powers, it's chaos and it's awesome.
Seriously though, the community takes as much pride in being oldmy old friend douche cunts as this one, so you should all feel right at home. Sure once every few days you might run into someone that's helpful or nice or at least not actively a horrific monster, but there are some of those weakling types hidden here too I bet.
Also the gameplay just reminds me of crpg so much. And the shit people do together in game, the way they're all tired of this game they've been playing for years but still hang around cause they've built an identity as a "pro" and don't wanna go back to being nothing without it. And plenty of funny shit that goes along with all that.
If you've never heard of this game and this mod, as I hadn't until about a week ago, you might like it if you give it a shot. It's like being a noob in crpg again, except without the level of entry barrier being quite as high just cause there's no grinding or levelling. It might still be tough cause of new gameplay, skills, etc. but at least you're on a statistically even playing field from the jump. And it's just a perfectly made, polished, professional mod with a whole lot of info in their built-in library system to cover all the intricacies and details of the classes and combat and everything else. And that's where this mod shines, like crpg. The nuances of the combat, the possibilities, skill based creativity allowing system that you can get as deep or shallow into as you want.
Oh and despite it being like a 100 years old, there's still an active community with games to be found 24/7 from what I've seen. Some servers more than others and depending on times, but duel and open team combat modes going almost all the time, EU and NA.
