It will be incredibly interesting to see how the limiting of Jedi
powers in SWG plays out. If you aren't aware, the team won't tell
anyone the specifics of how one becomes 'force sensitive' but
allegedly all players will be given the opportunity. I can only
think that it will be tied into one's behaviour in certain 'point of
interest' events, but that's merely the only way I could think of
doing it.

If they can keep the mechanism a mystery for longer than the beta
lasts I'll be duly impressed.
