Taris, A confirmed playable world? | 07.20.2009 , 04:57 PM
I was scouring the new video for hidden things, when I came across this at 3:00-3:07

It's when Daniel Erickson is talking about the size of SWTOR, and that they have the 12 writers etc.

Full screen it and slow it down to when it shows the computer screens. It shows some dialogue.


"Taris is a dangerous place. What are you doing here?"


Screeny1
This one you can hardly see Taris, but its to make out the S. At first I thought it was Tarin, and then I slowed it down right to when it switches, and you can barely see the S there.


Screeny2
This one shows the Taris, where the S looks a bit like an N (so does the s in "is")

Confirmation of Taris as a playable world? You decide, and look for yourself by downloading the video by clicking the download button. Can probably only be seen by downloading it.


Note: Had some trouble getting the print screen to work on windows media player, please tell me if it doesn't work.

With help from Zechio, we were able to determine what the lines below "Taris is a dangerous place. What are you doing here?"

It says on the first line:

The next line says:

Could this possibly mean Taris is Republic controlled? Or is it a private militia. My guess is it is a Republic world because it says on the side the list of classes, those lists of classes are:

Something I can't read
Smuggler
Jedi_Knight
Trooper
Three out of the 4 or 5 known are sided with the Republic. But this is all guess work. Tell me what you think! Discussion currently on-going here!


EDIT: Also, credit to Zechio who found this same thing and posted it a little after my thread!

And credit to Ascendant for noticing the class list on the side. Still trying to decipher what it says above Smuggler though!

Interesting discovery, it may not mean anything, but you just MIGHT have found the next playable planet.

Look; this game is going to be similar to World of Warcraft. I know you got chewed out by one too many groups when it wasn't your fault. It's okay, you'll have a clean slate at launch for TOR. We accept you. At least in the beginning.
