No, I dont' remember what my character class was in DOAC. I do know I only ever really used one character though.

Star Wars Galaxies wasn't perfect but I thought they did a fair job immersing you in that world and I've always been a Star Wars fan. The first major enhancement I remember was adding ships which they also did a fair job with though it could have been better. It was really changes after that I thought made it worse instead of better though I don't remember the specifics now.
