I ran my first Flashpoint last night with The Warbeck. I can't quite say it is a copy of an instance because it isn't; Doable with 2 people instead of 5, possible alone with a Healer/Tank companion I reckon. The lack of needing a full group makes the experience a much more intimate one, in a good way.
The quests you pick up while inside the run are interesting. Because everything is voiced, the dialogue is a bit more than just "NOW GO KILL GODFREY." The conversation was fun to watch as my partner was playing a True Sith Inquisitor and acted as such, flippantly threatening to kill anyone who crossed him. My more even-tempered Warrior was slower to draw his weapon, instead wanting to think things out first. This led to an interesting split as we murdered our way to OUR OWN BRIDGE only for me to play the Good Cop to my murdering compatriot. When the ship's captain insisted our mission was suicide, Mark cut him down on the spot, threatening to do the same to anyone who spoke out. However, once we'd fulfilled our objective, I was able to spare the life of a prisoner instead of just killing him for his cyber-eye and getting the information we needed that way.
It was a largely positive experience; I hope all of them have that level of interaction and development.
