It's expensive, though, and loves double dipping. It's chock full of neat weapons and outfits (largely cosmetic), and you can also use it to alleviate a lot of restrictions, spending cash on specific species on feature unlocks if you don't mind dropping money but don't want a subscription. It's also worth noting that BioWare is making some changes to the system in July, which will raise the credit cap and give free players an extra quick bar, as well as access to medical probes upon death and quick travel.
It'll net you some Cartel Credits, too, which you can spend in the shop. My recommendation is to try it for free, but if you think you're going to keep playing, absolutely get that one month subscription. You'll keep the subscription level cap, too. You'll be able to keep playing through all the expansion missions and you'll unlock those previously locked races if you picked them while you were subscribing. Think of it like buying all the expansions and races for £9/$15. Perhaps most like Knights of the Old Republic 2, the later chapters make the Star Wars universe and the Force feel strange again. The first couple of expansions aren't really worth repeated playthroughs, but everything from Shadow of Revan onwards is surprisingly gripping stuff, evocative of the singleplayer RPGs that inspired it, but not beholden to them.
After you finish your class story around level 50, for instance, you've now got several games' worth of adventures and crises and character-driven yarns left to play through. Things have progressed quite a bit since those days, however. For every great Star Wars moment, there were a hundred lacklustre fights and hours upon hours of running between repetitive quests. But then there was the MMO, which stuck rigidly to the most conservative adaptation of World of Warcraft, from the combat to the structure. There was BioWare's RPG, an enthusiastic Star Wars fantasy full of scintillating class stories that offered up countless lightsaber duels, Sith intrigue, superweapons, a personal spaceship and you could play as a Chiss James Bond.
