EA/ Bioware

 I just logged in to Star Wars the Old Republic for the first time in a few months. All I can say is, what is this horse shit!!! I try to post something in the forums, I can't post. What the hell!!! I went free to play and only have access to two characters out of the 14 I had. Fuck you!!!! EA you are the biggest piece of shit company out there. I am tired of you taking things I care about and killing them.
 Do right by the people who play your fucking games. Or get the fuck out. I am sick and tired of companies doing stupid fucking shit like this all the fucking time.
 To be honest I think I might quit gaming altogether now. I was a huge Star Wars fan, read my other post. Now, now I am about ready to throw in the towl and say fuck it all I am done.
 I use to trust Bioware now I can't even trust them to clean up their own shit let alone fix a video game!

Star Wars/ Disney

 I grew up on Star Wars, I loved the original trilogy. They ment so much to me and to millions around the world. Heck there was a month when all I did was watch the original trilogy on Saturday mornings. Those movies showed me right from wrong, good from evil. It also showed me that things aren't always black and white. (Darth Vader) It also showed me that, dreams could be made into reality so to speak.
 As a kid I would play cops and robbers, which ended up turning into Jedi and Sith. The Star Wars franchise. Was given new life with Episode One, in 1999. I was twelve at the time. Seeing Qui-Gon and a young Obi-wan. Kicked my mind into over drive. I loved seeing lightsabers again, along with everything else. It was a dream come true so to speak.
 On my 15th birthday Star Wars Episode 2 came out. I remember being kinda down because we didn't have much money for my birthday. My Mom and Step-Dad surprised me when we went to the movie theater  and watched it. Seeing Yoda walk into that hanger with his cane and fight Count Dooku made my jaw drop.
 It's moments like these that made my childhood great. After everything I had been through I knew that Star Wars was still there to watch and read about. ( Mind you I was collecting the Jedi Apprentice books at this time. Jude Watson is an amazing author) I was a and will always be a Star Wars fan and geek. I remember going to the local book store and getting three of the books from the Jedi Apprentice series and read them all in two days.
 Then Episode three came out which was good in a sense. Fast forward to now. Then to find out that Disney had bought the rights to Star Wars, made me feel sick to my stomach. Disney also bought out the comic book company Marvel a while ago. Which also kinda hurt ( but thats another rant all together)
 Disney shut down Lucas Arts, a company who has touched so much in the gaming world. Then to hear that after 2015 there will be a Star Wars movie every year, made me want to bash my head into a wall. Disney will single handedly destroy something that has meant so much to me.

 In short I am hurt that Disney owns my childhood, and to find out that they are destoying it hurts.
