Star Wars: The Old Republic continues chugging along with new content updates. With update 2.1, players will be able to customize their looks at the new Appearance Designer Kiosk. Players will be able to change the look of their eye color, body type, hair style, and are even able to recolor their armor. What’s more, gamers will even be able to go the extra mile and change their species completely. And what better way to introduce this feature than with the release of the Cathar species? The Cathar catlike race possess powerful melee abilities in the world of Star Wars, including the ability of rapid healing. How much of that translates into the game will be seen.
Great, now if I ever mention the real Cathars (the 12th/13th-century Occitan dualist heretics), people who google it will see fanboy wikis as the first results, and assume I’m one of the suckers who bought that shitty overproduced game.
That was likely to happen anyway after Knights of the Old Republic. Search Cathar on Google and the #2 result is Wookiepedia.
