He who fights and runs away... misses out on the loot

Every swinging richard seems to want to post that they left the game.  That means thousands of potential threads of "I just quit, because"  I am creating this thread so that all the SWTOR quiters have a common place to post.  Also those who would like to read these stories won't have to keep sifting through other threads.

 

Please, begin...

Players come for the game, but they stay for the people- Most Devs have forgotten this.

I installed to play out of sheer curiosity and then didn't bother because WAR: WoH was a lot more fun.

There, started the thread off for you :)

hahaha Don't you have to start something in order to quit? I don't think preparing for the game (by install) counts.

Played until lvl 11. Can’t play it even an hour more. No point to say the reasons. Many posts say many of them. I ll just say that it didn’t make me feel anything. I can play it as an RPG but not as an MMO. Good luck to those who will :)

Ah, I see. Somewhat disappointed, as not knowing that made the post quite hilarious imo.

i stopped play cos i am a wow fanboi and i am scared that Blizzard finds out i am playing a diff mmo and ban me from azeroth, so i will keep paying my $15 or whatever pay ( cos i roll high and have a 1year sub ) even tho i have done the same instances  100x and have no intentions in doing Arena or large scale RAIDS i will refuse to play SWTOR i prefer to sit on my Mount in the city and talk smack to the kids.

xxx love you all

Well, you just quit before the part that couples RPG and MMO's....

 

You really should have tried the first flashpoint

Currently i am a super hero in DCUO.
Best MMO experiences : EQ(PvE), DAoC(PvP), WoW(total package)
Worst MMO experience : FF XIV
Waiting for : GW2

A month ago it was the only show in town.  But Skyrim launched and when I play that game the hours slip by effortlessly.  With TOR I was feeling restless and time went by very slowly.  The more I played the more disillusioned I felt.  In some ways it reminds me of City of Heroes or one of those hero mmos in it's plasiticity aesthetic and the way the mobs are spread out in groups of three and don't move from their spot.

 

I am hoping the game feels more interesting after the starter world.  That's what people say.

This, omg, this.

 

 

After reading all the 'reviews' (aka opinion posts) after the NDA dropped, my suspicions were confirmed.  After finally getting a chance in beta and playing the game now I have no doubt. 

 

All I have to say here, I guess, is 'haters gonna hate' and negative posts can't stop my fun. =P   So go ahead my dear forum warriors, rip SWTOR a new one via posts;  we'll be having too much fun ig to care.

We really need separate forums for every newly launched game. There can be the anti-<MMO> one and there can be the 'what general discussion should be' one. All the lamenting can happen together where each can find solace in like minded can't-move-on-ers leaving the rest of us to actually move forward and discuss meaningful and relevant topics.

Exactly what I thought, City of Heroes. I must have gone into the same generic warehouse/hanger/corridor countless times with my Smuggler. The same groups of mobs, clustered in threes and fours so they can be easily taken out, then some glowing boxes/consoles/beacons to right click on... Also the same as in Star Trek Online.

I quit because I just got bored. There was nothing to see and just killing separatists over and over between tedious conversations with out of work actors got old very fast.

Just need to work out how to cancel my pre-order now and I can play Skyrim until GW2 comes out.... I might even go back to Rift, have a lot of fond memories of that.

I burnt out way too heavily on WoW to appreciate this game. The story parts are fun, but I don't like having to play an outdated MMO in-between.

Or alternatively, normal folk hold a negative opinion of something you like.

 

Not tried it myself, so can't quit and can't make any informed comment.

*Please help me, I have been brainwashed.
