Wow, they actually managed to make a class vid even more boring than the Bounty hunter Vid.

~falls asleep~ Ok, now you are just trying too hard. No... For a class that I actually want to play it was just really boring and bad, nothing really cool or anything that grabbed me and made me say "Ooooh, cool, I want to play that Class!". That and based on how horrible the robes are rendred, I will do everything in my power to never have a toon that will wear one.

As long as the story is good thats all I really care about with each class... something to pull me in... How things look are a distant 2nd place.... 30+ years of desktop RPGing means even MMOs are redone visual in my brain....

I'd agree with bd09 that the video wasn't the most exciting they've released -- though the music did a good job of adding some tension -- but there wasn't anything wrong with it.
Also, I like the kinda earthy, hobo robes the guy was wearing. If a lot of the Consular armour looks like that, it should provide a nice, easy distinction between them and the Knights.

I actually liked the video... but I'm a consular fan boy, so they could have given me an ewok in consular robes throwing something with the force and I would have been happy.

Maybe it was just me but I kept thinking through that whole video was a thinner model would have looked better. I mean the guy looks like a biker who mugged a consular and stole his robes which were a size too small  It funny with these vids they're not actually any better or worse than previous vids they just have less impact because we've since been exposed to 30minute gameplay vids and these little drip feed which used to save us from dying of thirst now only serve to keep moist lips wet. Had they shown a 30 minute consular game play vid I think those who might call themselves detractors of this particular video would be singing a very different tune. Bioware will be hard pressed to release any kind of video before launch that has a bigger wow factor than anything we've previously seen. So ... Bioware... dohn't try... just give us the game ...mkay...NO REALLY ! GAME! WANT! NOW! MINE MINE MINE MINE MINE
