We discuss the latest KotET livestream, Storytime with Charles Boyd. Returning guest Daniel, now officially Dr SWTOR, gives us more details on his psychological study of why we play the game.

As Knights of the Eternal Throne draws ever nearer, we discuss what's been revealed about class changes coming with Game Update 5.0, more details about Uprisings, and EA's quarterly report.

We cover the latest KotET news, including a bit about crafting in 5.0 and the repeatable chapters livestream. Then with our returning guest Cristina we talk about the voice actors strike, and why #PerformanceMatters.

This week we talk about the Uprisings livestream, along with the revelation that the various passes allowing F2P and Preferred players to access group content were being removed from the game.

The Knights of the Eternal Throne information deluge continues! We discuss the emerging details about the Galactic Command system, along with its associated Dark vs Light feature, which are coming with KotET.

The "Betrayed" trailer has been released, along with a veritable flood of information about Knights of the Eternal Throne! We talk all things KotET, along with our returning guest Cristina giving us her firsthand account of the Community Cantina in New York.

We discuss Game Update 4.7.2, the actions taken against credit sellers, and then speculate wildly about the glimpses we were given of the KotET trailer! Later in the show we talk about why more of SWTOR should have a solo mode.

We cover what little news there is, discuss Star Wars: Uprising's imminent demise, and then give our pre-KotET review of Knights of the Fallen Empire.

The Ranked PvP Season 7 rewards have been announced, Eric Musco answers some questions about Knights of the Eternal Throne, and we discuss Shintar's interview with Michael Backus about Flashpoints.

The drought ahead of the flood of Knights of the Eternal Throne information coming on 7 October continues, though Eric Musco did answers some questions on the forums this week. We discuss his answers, and a few other topics about SWTOR and beyond.

Game Update 4.7.1 is here, bringing with it "Shroud of Memory", the HK-55 bonus chapter! We discuss our initial (spoiler-free) impressions. We also discuss an interview with Charles Boyd about how the development of KotFE will inform the design of KotET.

In a very light news week we discuss the DDoS attack on EA's servers and some other Star Wars news. Then our guest Martin tells us about his experience living with Fibromyalgia, and how SWTOR helps him deal its chronic pain.

It's a quiet news week! We do discuss the unexpected temporary shutdown of the official SWTOR forums, and Lead composer Jesse Harlin's comments on some placeholder KotET music that's made its way into the wild. In our discussion, Daniel talks us through some preliminary results of his survey of SWTOR players, with some surprising (or perhaps not so surprising) findings.

On the show this week we discuss Patch 4.7a, Ben Irving's interview with the Bad Feeling Podcast guys, and James Ohlen's belief that the MMO market is stronger than ever.

Plenty to talk about this week with the (early!) arrival of Game Update 4.7 and Chapter 16, along with the August Producer Livestream. Knights of the Fallen Empire is done, very much setting the stage for Knights of the Eternal Throne!
