I always say that some Sith Saboteur gets in and messes with the programming. LOL

I had my character on Star Wars Galaxies go to Endor once, and I took some screen captures of the Ewoks. I didn't attack them nor did they me, but their names were in red text over their heads, meaning they were hostile creatures. None of them danced either just walked back and forth.

I always felt cheated that when after we help destroy the Death Star Rex just takes us right back to where we started!
So Im not the only one who noticed the whole "We fly to Endor but the entrance of the attraction is on Endor?" thing.

I did notice that, however I figured that was just a big advertisement as to the alleged final destination. Or perhaps there was a lawsuit, now buried deep into a courts record system, where someone said "HEY, I didn't make it to endor as promised!" so they created an "Endor", but even that fails since the entrance is Endor and the exit is Tatooine. In essence, it is just one big lie. You claim a trip to Endor, yet the entrance IS Endor.

Okay, if I keep going my head may explode.

It should also be noted that while you "land on Endor" you are really landing on Tatooine.

I get why they made the change for the gift shop. I just never understood the logic even when I worked there years ago.

Maybe it had to do with the summer heat in Orlando. Although I would expect Tatooine to be drier, especially with all the moisture farms!

Yeah, no idea why Florida decided to have an Endor entrance. Should've just done a standard spaceport entrance like everyone else...

Hopefully that will be re-done.

You will be missed.
