SWTOR lifts NDA and reveals Legacy Family Name system, new flashpoint, art book

Do you hear that? That's the sound of a million voices who were silenced suddenly freed to share their experiences with Star Wars: The Old Republic. That's because BioWare has officially lifted the non-disclosure agreement (NDA) allowing testers to talk about the game.

BioWare VP Greg Zeschuk posted the announcement just minutes ago on the forums:

As of now, the non-disclosure portion of our Game Testing Agreement is
officially lifted. While all players must still accept the Game Testing
Agreement, from this point on testers may now freely talk about their
experiences this past weekend in the game, as well as post screenshots
and gameplay videos of their testing experiences. We encourage you to
come join us on the official Star Wars™: The Old Republic™ Forums to share your experiences!

The Star Wars: The Old Republic community site will have a
copy of this message on the forums and it will also appear in the
Patcher. Players may not talk about nor reprint posts from our testing
forums as they are still fully covered by the confidentiality portions
of our Game Testing Agreement. And all players who want to participate
in the upcoming Beta Test Weekends still have to accept all terms of the
Game Testing Agreement. So, other than that, free feel to talk about
and share your experiences in Star Wars: The Old Republic.

If all that wasn't exciting enough, the dev team also released articles covering the flashpoint Bringing Down the Hammer, the book, The Art and Making of The Old Republic, and the Legacy system, which allows for a family last name shared across characters.

i like the part about family name system hehe ^^ and finally NDA lifted
