While the interior is decent and welcoming in a military fashion, I can’t get over how blech the outside is. The Trooper’s ship is somewhat reminiscent of the B-wing and the Imperial shuttle, but also a circa-1987 Volvo. Here we have the Sith Warrior/Inquisitor ship, the interior of which reminds me a lot of the Death Star corridors, particularly with the red lights (which would give me a headache if I had to actually work in this thing). Obviously, the Fury is meant to evoke similarities to the classic trilogy’s TIE Fighters and Interceptors, and I’ll admit that it does a good job doing so. I’m sort of hoping that a bounty hunter ship will come equipped with holding cells, but I haven’t seen anything like that in the video and pictures. I’m not that partial to the interior, which is a lot of grates and yellow lights and triangles.
This is the bounty hunter ship, and while it’s not as instantly iconic as Boba Fett’s Slave-1, it has a certain… predatory appeal to it, I suppose. I started looking (and drooling) through the SWTOR starship pages and thought I’d come back and rate the ships that are currently on display: I love that it’s partially player housing that moves, transportation between planets, a crafting HQ, and your vehicle for space combat. When it comes to Star Wars, I’m always much more fascinated with the technology of the universe than the Force, which is why owning a player starship seems like a dream come true.
