At the same time as Bioware were working on Mass Effect 3, they were also working on Star Wars: The Old Republic.

If you read our Old Republic review, you’ll know that there’s very little that I think we’d want to change (with the exception of that pesky install/download size), but there are indeed things that the developers could have brought over from Mass Effect, things which MMO developers everywhere could perhaps do with learning.
