Is the Empire more popular than Republic? Just finished the Jedi Knight class story (loved it) and decided to play the Bounty Hunter story before I start the expansions with my Jedi. I've noticed that the Empire worlds and fleet feel a lot more crowded than their Republic counterparts. Idk why but this surprises me. I feel like Jedi and smugglers would be the most popular classes. Am I crazy or are the players of SWTOR more into the dark side?
