Because of this, the MMO will always be limited and it will sooner or later become stale to all but the most diehard of players. Storyline is what keeps people going, and well...we ALL know what should basically happen in a Star Wars MMO. MMO's work best for games that can be open-ended and/or pick up different themes ideas etc.
Well, they could come up with "Long time ago, in a far far alternative galaxy..." where darth vader would conquer the universe with ponies and the emperor in reality is a pop singer :P
with modern lucasarts, all is possible
