About Me
I’m a blissfully wedded wife and a mom of 4 kids who happens to enjoy playing Star Wars Galaxies.![]()
Back in June 2004, my husband logged into Star Wars Galaxies on a trial account. I sat with him as he created his character. When we got to the part where he needed to choose his name, I suggested Bermuda Bob after the stuffed ape we purchased in Bermuda on our first vacation together. He decided to skip the ‘Bob’ and instead just named his character Bermuda.
Within a few days he urged me to get my own trial account. I resisted a bit at first given my distaste for games where you shoot stuff, go shoot more stuff and then go shoot more stuff. He insisted that there was more to this game and sincerely thought I’d enjoy it. So I signed up and created my character. My husband reasoned that I should call her Bahama since he was Bermuda. And so Bahama was born.
Needless to say, I was hooked by the end of the trial. Both my husband and I switched to paid subscriptions and continued to play.
The NGE destroyed my character and enjoyment of the game. I promptly quit.
Years later, I heard that changes had been made and so I returned to check things out. While I don’t believe that the game is nearly as good as it was in many ways, I’ve decided to come back to being Bahama.
