Think of the game as KOTOR 3. The Asset files are audio/video bundles of character arcs for each class. When you get a cutscene, it's coming out of the main assets files. The fully installed version is about 20GB, plus whatever patches and content assets they've released since beta.
The actual *game* is maybe 2GB in total.
Edit: Anyway, drop Kiana an in-game email if you make a lightside character. There's missions in the game which require teaming (but they're clearly labeled as "Heroic" and how many people you should optimally have,) and I'll be available if you need help. Well, except for the times I'm in CoH. Even SWTOR doesn't substitute for being a superhero.
Edit 2: (Borrowing Acyl's format, since it's easier to read.)
Kiana - Rep, Jedi/Shadow - Tank
Am'y - Rep, Smuggler (new)
Sanili - Imp, Inquisitor (new, probably Assassin, not sure.)

Those who fear the darkness have never seen what the light can do.
