first things.

this is just an opinion

I've seen many video's of this game.. but don't see any new things in it..

Why are people so excited of this game? to me its just an tab target quest from a to b game?

I predict this game will end up the same as rift..

I really hope it does since Rift is one of  the most successful MMO in recent years after strings of failed launches. However, i am 100% certain that it will do even better than Rift.

So you have seen everything before? Lightsabers in every other game, full voice over in every other game? Science fiction/fantasy in every other game?

I predict you know very little about this.

Videos do not do it justice.... Grab a beta key and try it out. I had my doubts.... Not anymore :)

Alot of people are star wars/Kotor fans, They owe it to themselves to play this game, atleast try it out.

Other than that I'm pretty excited about the game, even if it would be a totally new IP, Its just not for everyone I guess =)

how can rift be succesfull???

they lost 60% of there playerbase after the first month?

For me its simply because its star wars, no other reason.  I'll play it till a quality sandbox comes out or darkfall 2.0 relaunches

 Because they are still doing better than most MMOs out there, say Darkfall for example.

I don't know HOW but it is and no it didn't lose 60% of player base after first month. unless you got some link or news article to prove your stastics.

why did 6.5 million people buy MW3?  I've heard its worse than even the sports games, almost nothing changed from MW2.

Thing is for me, I like how WoW played, I just got bored of the setting, it grew stale.  An update and refinement on the formula in a new setting that I really like (thankfully not fantasy) by a company whos games I usually love.  Why shouldnt I anticipate it?  Everything doesnt need to break the mold or blow my mind. 

Not that I dont like the new, heck I never thought I would ever like a puzzle game before Portal came along.

Also for Rift, define success.  They seem to be doing just fine from what I hear.  Initial retention rates, post WoW, always have been poor.

Anything that makes a profit could be considered a success. The level of success is subjectice to the company in question.

Why peeps are so excited of this game? Comon, it's faking Star Wars.. u know Star Wars?

Before this past weekend test (my first time testing it) I knew for certain that my expectatioins were simply to unrealistically high and it would not be able to live up to that, so I prepaired myself as best as I could to try and judge the game by some reasonable standards.

{mod edit}

But don't like it, don't play it, it doesn't really matter to me, I just know I can't wait till early access!

*if any of that was NDA breaking (don't mean it to be) then please delete*

{mod edit} YOU'RE A FRACKIN' JEDI RUNNING AROUND CORUSCANT KILLING THINGS WITH YOUR LIGHTSABER!

Uhm.. yeah.. sorry about the caps.. got excited there.  

Basically, if this game had all these features and wasn't star wars, i wouldn't touch it.  But it is Star Wars, so "bzzzzzt" and may the force be with me.

It's funny, I'm having trouble logging in to any of my other games after the beta weekend as well. That has not happened in a long long time.

This game is WoW in space. No Swimming. No dynamic events. No open world PvP. No new ideas.

Only thing going for it is irritating quest text / voice overs that I skipped in WoW, because I just want to get to the action.

I was on the same wagon a lot of other people are on.  Theres nothing new to the game. its a wow clone. no inovation. I am awaiting guild wars 2 . Then i got a beta invite last weekend and decided to play anyway.  {mod edit}. but i am now far from a swotor hater as i was before i played it

Lets get some facts straight,

1. WOW is tab target and has more subs than just about all the worlds other MMO's combined so there is indeed a market for tab targeting in MMO's.  The fact that you dont like them is pretty much irrelevent since games without it sell less.  I'll bet you feel making a game aimed at the smallest demograph is a great idea but for the rest of the world, we like to make as much money as possible.  If you like NON-Tab-Target games so much, get out there and get people playing them so they make more money and developers want to make them.

2. Rift and Aion are the most successful games launched in the last three years.  Look at all the others, DCUO, STO, CO, APB, HellGate and EarthRise and where they are now... F2P because they could not make enough money on a sub model.  Maybe in your world having enough subbers to make money is a bad thing but to the rest of the world, money is a good thing.

Promise me you will not play TOR or post in their forums...

After testing this past weekend, it surpassed my highest expectations... I can't even log into another game now. It is by far, right  now in its current state, better than any other MMO I have played and it is nothing like any of them.

Yeah, and it's making me shell out  2 grand for a new rig in my case.
