Which side do you think will have more players than the other Empire or Republic

[murdax]

I would like to know in your opinion which side do you see on and after release as being over populated and will have the most players on it. And why do you think so, please give solid reasons.

My money would be on the Empire, its the cool thing to play the ''bad guys'' these days and from what Iv seen there's alot better character customization aswell

I think the Empire will have more, but the difference won't be as pronounced as some are predicting.

Sure, the Empire has a class that can shoot lightning, one that lets players run around like Vader and another that lets players channel their inner-Boba Fett, but the Republic has similar appeal, as well. You can run around as Luke Skywalker, Satele/Bastila Shan (while throwing rocks around, no less), Han Solo or play a class that is essentially the Clone Trooper from the prequel trilogy.
