SWTOR is what it is. I repeat:
SWTOR is what it is. You should read it again.
SWTOR in its current form bothers you because...you expect something out of a game that can't give you what you need. What you need is to be content and excited about an MMO again, like you were with your first one before you got bored of it. My friends, that feeling will never come back.
It is human nature, to get bored and to move on to other things. The thing itself that you once loved and now you don't, is not to blame here. You simply have gotten burned out from MMOs all together, chasing a feeling and a thrill that will never be back, because you have leveled a toon before, and the core elements of an MMO, in order to be an MMO, never change. It is like kissing your first girl, making your first high volume sale, buying your first car, surviving your first public speech. After a while, things just get old.
You make a toon, cast spells and swing a weapon at a mob, quest etc...which MMO doesn't have this? Maybe this is what you are bored with? And when an MMO is made which doesn't have all that, will it be an MMO?
So, could it be that really this isn't about SWTOR, but actually you trying to make SWTOR what it can never be for you?
Truth hurts. Remember:

Now flame away :-)

I'm with the OP. It is probably time to play a good RTS, good action game, maybe some Skyrim or a nice simulator. Website: http://www.thegameguru.me / YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/users/thetroublmaker |

Complete bullshit. SWG, Darkfall, HnH and most recently Wakfu all gave me that excitement. Why? Because it offers new and interesting stuff. Unlike.. you know what game.
Edit: Will also add that I played all those games for over 2 years, SWG even longer. (Wakfu isnt out yet but probably will too) |

I agree with the op, I want a deep thought out game with care taking in each aspect of it;s design. I want pvp to have meaningful rewards (land ownership / seiging), I want to be awe struck with a horizon that can be reached and quests that last months. You are right Op, it is me. |

It's always the player. You just can't please everyone and the few with issues have the loudest voices that the sheep follow (to other games). The definition of insanity: doing the same thing over and over expecting different results. |

Originally posted by I_Return That's my point. If that's what you want, then SWTOR isn't for you. Does that make SWTOR a piece of crap? Does that make you a troll? No and no. It just means its not for you, and that's ok. It just drives me crazy that people will flame a game for not being their dream come true....the game is what it is. |

Originally posted by Tenebroso Agreed. Not sure why people get disapointed when something isn't what it ever intended to be. They never planned on making a sandbox, other game companies are. Why buy an apple and then get sad when it doesn't taste like a grape? |

Hold up a second here;
-Every single gameplay video(and no, not cgi movies) that was released by *BioWare* are shown in a resolution and graphical setting that isnt even available ingame. Think about that for a second. They have even admitted to this. -Thousands of items, suits, mods, full questing and heroic areas, weapons, schematics, titles... everything removed before the game went live. Most of this stuff, as said above, was advertised as part of the game before the game was even released. -These are only 2 examples, i would be more than happy to list more. Please, ask me to. To you it may be one thing, but to me, when i buy an apple because the guy said it was an apple, i expect him to hand me an apple. I also dont expect one of his employess hanging out on the sidewalk outside of the store berating me because I complained about shitty service and false advertisement. |

Originally posted by Tenebroso I just wanted a dungeon finder with decent wait times. I will sub when that happens
I had more fun leveling in SWTOR than anything I ever did in WOW or LOTRO, which are th only other two MMOs I've stayed to level cap with. It was immersive and fun. I now want quick grouping that doesn't involve sitting in the fleet or joining a guild. |

Oh yes, now that you say it! Why am I not satisfied with McDonalds? Eat shit! If you have a problem with that, its YOUR fault! Why was I so demanding?? OMG! Holy Trinity who art in our MMORPGs! Blessed be thy speccs, as in WOW so in all MMOs! Our daily loot grant us, and forgive us our noobness, as we forgive the noobs! And do not lead us to disconnects, But deliver us from mediocrity, For thine is the specialization and the teamwork and the endgame, Until cancellation, Amen! |

What a complete load of rubbish. What, is SWTOR breaking up with me in a really thoughtless way? "I'm sorry baby, it's you not me."
No, it IS Star wars the old republic. It's end game blows, it's about as optimized as EQ2 was when it came out. It has a terrible loot distribution system for pvp gear. Tell me I have to grind for a week for an item and I will say "right lets have at it then!" but tell me a guy who hit level 50 three days ago has 5 pieces of pvp gear because he got lucky with his weekly quests compared to my rubbish luck - is fair, and I will laugh long and hard in your face. Star Wars was fantastic when I was headed to 50 first time round, really enjoyed my self. Then I saw Ilum and how broken it was. Then I grinded through warzones to get really shitty luck on bag drops. I then ventured into the FFA area and saw it dead and empty. Then one day in Ilum more than 10 people came on the screen at the same time and my PC went "F**k that!" Is it me not liking those things? Of course it is, but 100% of the time if you don't like something it is your fault!

Originally posted by Tenebroso My friend there are games that u play for years and u dont get bored and there are games that u play a month and thats it. Take for example dota.7 years now and my friends still play it. Diablo they still play it. Starcraft 1 and 2 they still play it. Wow they still f play it. What seperates a GAME from a game is it's replayability and it's awesome gameplay feel. Swtor offers only cutscenes which in my opinion is not in my game list but in my movies list. For people who enjoy bad graphics crap gameplay bad music scores lifeless worlds and singleplayer games with monthly fees with ridiculous gamebreaker bugs then this is a game for u.
That was the last money ea and bioware took from me.Simply because they ruined an ip along with the stupid lucas |

Originally posted by Zefire This is only partially true. Because it represents only SOME gamers. There are enough gamers who played Diablo and SC1/2, etc, liked it and after 1-2 months when they were done with it, stopped playing them and moved on. Also, there are gamers who don't see TOR like you do at all, and don't see it as a waste of the IP or bad gameplay or 'ridiculous gamebreaker bugs' compared to other MMO's, but find it an entertaining, fun MMO. If that's not how you feel about it, sure, that sucks for you. But it'd be a mistake to think that it applies to all gamers. |
