SWG:Rebellion

Introduction to Our Vision
With an empire deviced, and a new hope dead, only Rebellion remains!
At SWG:Rebellion, our mission is clear: to restore the beloved Star Wars Galaxies experience by rolling back to a pre-NGE (New Game Enhancements) state. This undertaking involves redeveloping the server and client to bring back the classic gameplay that so many fans cherish. With a vision of eliminating the class-based system and reintroducing a skill system, we aim to create an environment where players can forge their unique paths in the galaxy far, far away.

What Does Pre-NGE Mean?
To appreciate our goals, it helps to understand the distinction between pre-NGE and NGE. The pre-NGE system was known for its:
Complex character development
Freedom to customize skills
Player-driven economy
In contrast, the NGE introduced a more simplified, class-based system that limited player choice and altered the essence of the game. Our goal is to revive the intricacies that made pre-NGE a fan favorite.

Key Features of Our Redevelopment
Here are the main components we are focusing on as part of our redevelopment:
1. Skill-Based System
Instead of a rigid class system, we will implement a comprehensive skill-based model, enabling players to:

Choose and develop their skills as they see fit
Specialize in crafting, combat, or social abilities
Adapt and change their playstyle according to their preferences

2. Diverse Character Progression
Players will be able to enjoy a variety of progression paths, such as:

Multi-classing opportunities for richer character histories
Skill challenges that promote exploration and experimentation
Achievements that offer unique rewards and recognition

3. Enhanced Gameplay Balance
To avoid the pitfalls that came with NGE, we are committing to:

Regularly balance skills and abilities through player feedback
Creating a fair competition landscape in both PvE and PvP
Continuously testing the gameplay dynamics before the official launch
