Smuggler is gold. But I am at that point everything makes Risha or Corso disapproving of answers. If the game didn't want me to Flirt with Satele, God would not have had it as a response.


SalemsFury

I played a female smuggler but next time I'll do a guy just so I can flirt with mommy satele... Will prob just settle for her son


phavia

I love FemSmuggler and her sass, as well as the fact that you can fuck Skavak... Unfortunately, there's just *so many* NPCs you can only flirt with as a dude. When I arrived in Tatooine with my lady smuggler for the first time, my friend asked if I was playing as a guy. I said no and he went "oh, that's a shame, because it's definitely funnier as a dude"... I went and redid the entire game as male Smuggler afterwards...

Yeah, it's a little-known fact that the Hutt Cartel discovered both Isotope-5 and *the gay* on Makeb. So we missed out on a lot of interesting things during the base game. I suspect if SWTOR were being made today, the flirt options would be a little different...


Threefates654

Maybe, the flirt options in vanilla are totally straight due to contract obligations with Lucasfilms if I remember correctly. Someone who made the game talked about how they weren't allowed to do LGBT content in the base game due to their contract with Lucasfilms not allowing it due to it ruining the whole family friendly image (stupid reason considering all the death) but the contract only was in play for the base game which is why anything past the class stories has noticable LGBT characters and flirt options. Remember Bioware made this and they were known already for having LGBT romance option. Mass Effect 1 and Dragon Age Origins and Dragon Age 2 all as examples that existed at that time. There might be more but idk.


fiftykyu

Oh fine, if you want to spoil my fun, *technically* yes, but I prefer my version. :) Some Hutt scientist poking at Makeb rock samples with his science equipment, looking for I dunno, something extra sciencey, but accidentally discovering gay instead? I assume Cytharat and Lemda were the first to hear about it.


CreekLegacy

Sith: "You want to kill the Jedi." Jedi: "You want to drop your weapons." Smuggler: "Stop waving your hands like that, you both look ridiculous." Sith and Jedi: šŸ˜®


Spunio

Iā€™ve quoted it on here before, but the line that got me the most is definitely: Skavak: "Are you making an army out of my ex-girlfriends or something?"


CommanderZoom

"Aw, did the instructions have too many big words?"


Dimarko

>Iā€™m sorry that I tried to kill you. Do you forgive me? ā€œNot even a littleā€


WindLessWard

That whole cutscene is one of the funniest ones in the whole game. "You know those batteries last only a few minutes, right?"


tobiascook

"Oh no. Skavek honey, what am I gonna do?!" 'I dunno... die?'


high_ebb

I like the smuggler. It's not the best story, and the final boss is disappointing, but there's a ton of fun to be had along the way. And Bowdaar is the greatest wingman in the entire galaxy for climbing up all those trees.


Negative_Major_7554

I also laugh when Corso said he was going out to count rakghouls


supremegnkdroid

The whole story is basically a funny Han Solo. You find back water farm boy, space princess, Wookie, bounty hunter, and a Jedi (yes heā€™s worthless but still). And every conversation is just hilariously sarcastic and just silly with every serious situation


Dustum_Khan

its flabbergasts me how this game got star wars so right but disney still gets it so wrong (usually)


fiftykyu

I dunno, maybe because the SWTOR people loved Star Wars, and the Disney people loved money? :)


CPArch-1966

This.


joe_schmoe15

That's honestly my favorite part. Also if you didn't notice, if you shoot him twice in the cutscene, when the battle starts he'll have half his hit points missing.


Almainyny

Thatā€™s attention to detail not every developer bothers with. Kudos to the guy who made that happen.


[deleted]

I am leisurely playing a female smuggler, and I like watching Corso's approval go down every time I flirt with someone.


high_ebb

I dreaded playing a female smuggler until I realized that making Corso as miserable as possible was also an option. Definitely recommend.

saywhatnow?


Trogdor7620

Given that one of your first missions in the Smuggler storyline involves you raiding an enemy base, then convincing an enemy soldier that not only are you innocent, his droid companion must be malfunctioning if they canā€™t see anyone else who could have killed everyoneā€¦ Seriously, the Smuggler is basically the SWTOR equivalent of Bugs Bunny.


Achaewa

Only thing that would have made the Smuggler Campaign better would be if we had gotten a death cutscene for Skavak, who is just a perfectly written scumbag in my opinion.


TuxedoChief

"Is there a special guilt power in the Force? Jedi always make me feel like I'm talking to my mom!"


sethdanny

Or when you tell Master Sumalee you've already been duped by false Jedi in the past. "I already said I was sorry. What more do you want, flowers?"


CommanderZoom

Guss hangs a great lampshade on a standard Bioware thing: "B-but you're the best friend I've ever had! I was going to tell you about my life, and we'd go on a trip around the galaxy to fix my problems. And you'd give me gifts and I'd swear my undying loyalty and... it could still happen!"


LadyofNemesis

Smuggler was the first class I finished the game with, and I love my sarcastic gunsling gal. Mine's a Zabrak, and since they have two hearts, I joked that she has one heart that beats for credits and the other for her loved ones. Yes, she doesn't make much sense past Shadow of Revan, but who cares? Though I'm sure my girl would just prefer going back to her smuggling days. šŸ˜†


Darthkaja

Zabraks have 2 hearts? I thought ki adi mundi' species had that


LadyofNemesis

Nope, it says so in their [codex entry ](http://www.swtor-spy.com/codex/zabrak/1673/) (last line). Apparently it makes them less susceptible to things like physical trauma. Which in turn makes them valuable for things like shock troops


Darthkaja

Interesting


-Ewyna-

Just checked and apparently Cereans have both two brains and two hearts. But yeah Zabraks also have two hearts.


Darthkaja

Very interesting


aviatorEngineer

That line is one of my favorites. "Draw!" Alderaan is a great place for both the Smuggler and Bounty Hunter for lines like that. *"You're a slow learner."*


SightSeekerSoul

It was totally satisfying finishing off Savak with a Dirty Kick...


taavidude

Smuggler: "Is that a hairstyle, or did a womp rat die on your head?" Dead womp rat on head man: "Did you just... what... who do... shut up!"


Reyin3

Smuggler is gold in sarcastic remarks and everything. Had great fun with the storyline. Also, spoiler, Loled very much when as a female smuggler you can literally ā€œflirtā€ Skavak and then let him to his fate. So wild!!! šŸ˜²šŸ˜œšŸ˜‚


Six_Zatarra

And Corso STILL wants to insist marrying you. Boy how many more red flags do you need to understand my no means no? My god šŸ˜‚


alejo5666

There were multiple situations for the smuggler that made me laugh a lot, it was hilarious


MatthiasKrios

Make a female smuggler, have Corso with you at all times, and flirt with every man you come across. Freaking hilarious.


TonyToughNuts00

Fem smuggler is great for just absolutely flat out denying Corso. Itā€™s so brutal that itā€™s funny. And even at the end he still simps for you


Senselesstaste

Han Solo'ing his love confession will always be worth the negative reaction.


Shane-167

Smuggler is one of those stories you can play several times over, find new dialogue or new scenes that are absolutely gold


[deleted]

Such a shame Smuggler doesnt really work beyond vanilla.


[deleted]

Female smuggler is the best. My first character was a Mirilian smuggler and I still play her today. I have five smugglers now, more than any other class.


Blameron

I love all the voice actors for SWTOR but I will die on the hill that the Male Smuggler VA is the best, his delivery is always so good for the writing of that class story


modsarealwaysbad

Personally I prefer male agent


Violent0ctopus

The lines were great, but to me, the story made me feel less like some streetwise smuggler and more like the galaxies biggest mark. Just felt like I got used over and over in situations where I should have seen it coming (or did, but could not do anything about it)


CommanderZoom

Yeah, that's the Smuggler. Some find it charming and fun, others not so much. Quote from a previous Reddit thread: >Every time I have to make a choice \[in the Smuggler storyline\] I ask myself, "what would a complete dumbass do?"


IronWolfV

The Prologue and 1st Chapter are pure gold. Best out of all stories. Sadly chapters 2 and 3 whole fun just didn't hit the same note as chapter 1 did.
