-I've played a few other MMORPG's, just wondering how this game is?? I'm doing all the research I can, but wanted opinions from people that actually play. I stopped playing WoW and FFXI, looking for something new, didn't really like WoW but LOVED FFXI, only thing I didn't like was having to be in a group for a majority of the game seeing as I couldn't sit there for countless hours waiting for people to do things.
-What professions are most popular and which aren't??
-I saw a forum topic about someone's house and storage, can you really own a house?? What about vehicles??
Any input is greatly appreciated and I look forward to the responses.
Well you will be happy to know that much of the SWG content is solo content, it is really only the high end instances that require groups.
In terms of professions I would suggest Jedi is the most common followed by Bounty Hunter and then various forms of Beast Master (not really a profession but a major subset of all professions) and then all the other classes seem relatively even.
As far as owning houses go, you can own various types of houses from small generic to large planet specific homes, you can also own various types of building, Cantinas, Medical Centers, Guild Halls etc.
Here is a list of the various types of structure available (there are restrictions on some)
swg.wikia.com/wiki/Structures Vehicles are pretty much the same:

There are also mounts that can be made:

Server wise there are about 3 heavily populated servers (Bria, Bloodfin are two but there is also European Servers) and roughly 4 medium populated servers all the rest have low populations, in order to determine the one you like I would suggest downloading the 14 day trial and checking them out.
