You are an OG SWTOR player if this was the character selection menu theme when you created your first character

Goodbye, old friend. May the Force be with you.

I always thought there was no way any composer other than John Williams could possibly capture that distinct Star Wars sound. I was wrong.

This is the embodiment of the Old Republic. And when Malgus gets Force Waved into the mountainside.

This actually plays in the game if *spoliers* you are the Jedi Knight and choose to kill the Emperor at the conclusion of the class storyline. That scene combined with this song... those are the kind of Star Wars moments to live for.

Yeah, I liked this theme better than the current one.

the new theme does not get me hyped to play like This theme did.. I'll miss Clash of Destiny playing when i login

I haven't received a dime in Royalties for my work on this franchise but I really appreciate the fact that fans remember my hard work.

1:54 *Dramatic scream and force explosion*

When I hear this music I want to pick up my lightsaber and run into a battle! Awesome!!!

first couple of loose beats: I'm too weak the song coming in full swing: UNLIMITED POWEEEEEER

This is pur epic! Imperial March: I sleep Clash of Destiny: Real Shit

Goodbye old friend.

Goodbye old friend, this is the last day that ull be on the server, so many memories.

1:55 How 3rd graders feel when they lift 4 chairs at once.

I will forever associate SWTOR with this theme no matter how many times they change the log in music.

IT'S BAAACK

Nostalgia just kicked me in the face with this soundtrack Help, I'm crying

When I first started SWTOR i was like... woah what this will be about?... and this music told me right in menu that I will love it till the end!

There is no death, there is only the force. May the force serves you well... goodbye old friend.

I miss this Main Menu Theme of SWTOR. Starting up the game, loading the game and the theme starts and your character doing that intense stare down on your screen. Like your character is destined for greatness.

This may actually be the first time I've actually listened to the song, without just selecting my character and skipping past it.

"Time for you to see what a Sith is capable of." *Music starts playing

IT’S FUCKIN BACK, LADS!

Welcome back, old friend!!!

IT'S BACK!!!

2 minutes of intensely staring at idle character in main menu.

When STAR WARS was actually developed from the heart

YAY! It's gonna be the official main menu track!

While Kotor I and II had a soundtrack which well reflected the much lesser scale war that their heroes where fighting, this is the perfect theme to show how big and epic and magnificent the Great galactic War was as a conflict. You no longer hiding from the Sith striking from the shadows, now they have a goverment, a emperor, ministers, assasins, a considerable portion of the galaxy. No side is bigger than the other. Civilians fighting for the freedom of his home world, cold wars, insurgents, bombardments. Its just the same vibe as WW2, but in SW

Started playing post-Onslaught, but I can agree this theme is WAY better

The final gruesome weapon of Tenebrae.

Yeah I prefer this theme over the new one.

Im glad they are bringing this back in legacy of the sith

Goodbye old pal

Any other amazing SWTOR tracks such as this?

Miss this as the menu music already.

that one kid who's the last one standing on in their team in dodgeball and everyone is chanting,"catch a ball! catch a ball!": 1:55

I really, really wish we had the option to change our loading screens and character select theme… this beats out the new one by miles. Wish I could go back and experience SWTOR and all the memories all over again.

There's nothing bad about this song. 3 parts that stood out to me most where 0:50, 1:09, and 1:55. Very great song! I will miss it when I load up my game!

Such a good buildup intro

Hearing this song always sends chills down my spine, I love it

is it possible to change the current theme in the game folders to return to this one. I was so hyped every time I launched the game. Just want Clash of Destiny 😢

Enchanting. Utterly enchanting.

WHAT THE ABSOLUTE FUCK AM I LISTENING TO AND WHY DOES IT FEEL SO GOOD

This is such an underrated theme, people are SLEEPING on this.

1:55 *"Deliver the death blow, then.* From beyond darkness, *I shall strike at you!* Someday, *VENGEANCE WILL BE MINE!!!"*

This could be a national anthem

I remember SWTOR all the way back in Beta when i was 7 years old, its ahrd to believe its been nearly 14 years already

miss this

Before the Republic and Jedi Order The darkside was the protector Of This Galaxy- (Sith Master)

Took me way too long to find this. The only reason I did is because some other channel made an Epic Cover for it.

Cool LOTR vibes it has

Every time i'd log in, I would hear this and sometimes just let it play. It completely sucked me into the game, I do miss it a lot since it's iconic. I however quite like the new theme.

best main menu theme ever

how is this not on spotify?

very good at 0:33 !

RIP

Goodbye for now... i hope we see you one day...but for now goodbye my friend may the force serve you well..

This song made me want to launch the game just so I can get there, cause I knew once you heard it you WANT to do battle!!!....I miss it...

I miss this theme song...

FULFILL YOUR DESTINY

I miss the theme :(. Wish they got it back and have it and Onslaught i mean i like the Onslaught one as well but this one is better

Thats what i want to hear!

Sometimes im saying .... Ohhh man I dont want to play that game -.- it doesnt make any fun with legendary status and if i hear the soundtrack im like : Star Wars you are the holiest thing ever I will kill everyone who says shit about you ! :P Sry my english isnt the best ^^

I didnt join at launch but this was the song when i joined, it was right when they decided that you can choose your comp to be what ever you want healer tank dps

the best soundtrack of this game.

I know there is a lot of hate for the new theme. But i feel like the new theme kinda represents light vs dark with the choir. I love it and it sounds good. Both theme have a distinct aim they are going for in my opinion

reckon there's a way to put this back into the menu? i liked this theme way better than the new one lol

I have been playing this game again

i open the game i always start whistleling along

well bois, guess it's back

This song should have been in the movies

MY OLD FRIEND!

who else came here from the Hope cinematic?

If I were to make an entire fan-film series on The Star Wars Expanded Universe (All the way from The Zhell vs. Taung War on Notron (Prehistoric Coruscant); up to Darth Wredd's defeat in Legacy); the first episode (Dha Werda Verda: Rage of The Shadow Warriors) would have the traditional Star Wars Title Crawl, but with this song as background music. Then, I would have a variety of different songs accompanying the opening crawls for the different era(s) of the film(s) in question; with a few surprises here, and there. At the last episode of the series (Darth Wredd's defeat, and the final end of The Sith), I would also play this song in the opening crawl for that final episode, just to end it how it started, because "It's like poetry, it rhymes". Wouldn't that be AWESOME?!? Also, if this were to happen, I wouldn't be making episodes regarding events that were put on screen, such as Video Games (KOTOR 1, and 2; Battlefront 1, and 2; The Old Republic MMO; Force Unleashed 1, and 2; etc.); TV shows (Clone Wars 2003, and 2008; Droids; Ewoks; etc.); or The Movies themselves; as those are parts of The EU I think the audience would understand, and learn better themselves (Go get those things yourself, and watch/play them); plus, I don't want to rip-off, or discredit all the people that already put those things on screen in the first place, and hoard all the viewership traffic to myself, and my fan-films. I would, however, make fan-films on things written strictly in book form (Comic Books, Reference Books, and Novels); just so people could have a visual/audio aid on things (If needed), and events in The EU that otherwise have no imagery (Novels with no accompanying sourcebooks; with pictures of important things, like ships; planets; people of different species (And what they looked like); duels/battles between characters, or armies/navies in open combat; etc.). Want to know what happened in The Pius Dea Era, beyond a few images in The Essential Guide to Warfare, and Essential Atlas? Want to see The Thrawn Trilogy in movie form (All the characters the way they would look in Illustrations; voice actors; music scores; sound effects; the whole Hollywood sha-bang!) after so many years of waiting for such to happen? Want to see The Yuuzhan Vong War; and later time periods; as well as anything else before The KOTOR era (Rakatan Infinite Empire; Tython; Tion vs. Hutts; Foundations of, and early days of The Republic; Alsakan Conflicts; Hundred Year Darkness; Tulak Hord, and Marka Ragnos in all their glory; Great Hyperspace War; and everything else in between)? That's what it would be; a whole series that brings all The EU onto your screen(s) (If they aren't on screen, already); being as close to the source material, and/or the intent of the source material as humanly possible. If the book says "Darth Bane smirked at Zannah's comment", you would see him smirk on-screen, as well as lifting all spoken dialogue straight from the books onto the film, itself. If any narration/narrator monologue-ing is in order, there would be as such. And, when there is a fan-film on less well-recieved parts of The EU (Crystal Star; Sun Crusher; Dark Empire; etc.); well, don't blame me for it, I'm just lifting from The Source Material. But if it is TRULY/ABSOLUTELY necessary, I will change the plot up JUST A TINY BIT, just to make the plot more bearable for everyone; because I want to be as faithful to The Source Material as I possibly can! Of course, this is all just a fat dream; but, a man can dream, can't he?

Why oh why did they change the theme.... ;_;

I for some reason didnt even notice until now and damn how that sucks.

Best music

Even though SWTOR completely ripped off WoW gameplay I still loved it. Also back in the day where your companions weren't completely overpowered, they only had one class and it was really a challenge to fight an elite enemy. Nowadays everything is a lot easier (I CAN SOLO THAT 4 MAN GROUP BOSS GREE DROID)

0:50 1:54

Better music than the current trilogy

Here after Disney announces the ood republic era

How can i find this song on spotify

,,The republic is weak! ''

LONGER!

Peace is a lie.

1:55

Tbh the new theme annoys me a little. It’s just so obnoxiously loud in the beginning

F

1:52 Obi Wan force lifts a bunch of boulders and throws them at Vader

The only good main menu theme of SWTOR.. the current ones barely fit the game anymore

I HATE THE ONSLAUGHT MENU MUSIC!!!! I HATE THE ONSLAUGHT MENU MUSIC!!!!

Kind of sounds like a Hispanic Batman theme

This game isn't fun anymore. But that's just my personal opinion

Legacy of the Sith's best part is this masterpiece.
