Dev post clears up the mystery surrounding surnames and the talked-about legacy system in one swoop.

Not sure how thrilled I am about it. I've got a few more questions I need to see answers to, first. Most importantly, is this game more intelligent about selecting which name to use with a title than, say, STO was? Because STO was terrible about ranks.

I don't want to run around as Captain Han or Master Luke. /facepalm

On the other hand, the notion of presenting your characters as a family is interesting, even if it seems hastily thought out with different species in the mix. Being able to present a character as "Leia of the Skywalker Legacy" or something similar ought to alleviate that somewhat. I could see, for instance, padawans of their master's legacy.

It's not as complete a name package as, say, using a CoX style global with full names could've been, but it's better than I was fearing based on the weekend last month.

Why can't you just have a last name? I mean, its so simple. I know I don't want all of my characters to be related... that's just retarded.
