Unfortunately for the genre, WoW is still better than both GW2 and SWTOR.  

 

Which is why it is P2P and the others are F2P.

It is not fair to compare F2P games with P2P.

Ppl are looking for the best thing the problem is that their isnt one. What we have now is different MMO for different kind of players. They will not be a one MMO better than another.

Each player has its own liking and will choose the game it likes the most. To get a new mmo that will have more than 10m players like wow, the dev have to comply to every player type which is hard sense we are getting more atune to what we like.

1. WoW : Most players that dont need a hardcore machine, and enjoy the warcraft lore.

2. Rift : Players that dont want to play WOW but want to play a new story completely

3. GW2 : Players that want to play a MMORPG but dont want to be logged for hours straight. The best benefit of a nonsub game.

4. SWTOR : Star Wars Fans of any type, also for players that prefer scifi lore.

5. TSW : Players that want to play on envirorement similar as reality instead of fantasy world or outer space

I myself played WoW, SWTOR, TSW, GW2, at the moment im with GW2 because i dont feel that im loosing money when I play (I'm a family man) also the lore for me is unique and different so that is something i like a lot. But the same may not be for you.

"YOUR GAME IS NOT BETTER THAN MINE BUT I KNOW MINE IS NOT BETTER THAN URS"

Time spent in-game SWTOR>GW2.

While I have been a critic of SWTOR, playing it through to max level was far more enjoyable than leveling in GW2. To this day I still don't have a GW2 character above level 30 and dont ever see myself hitting max level in that game. In SWTOR I got to max level with two toons before I threw in the towel.

Oh wow now the haters are resorting to name calling very mature. Btw I do not think its the best MMO but I am enjoying it along with a lot of others. Im sorry you take it so personal that others like a VIDEO GAME!!!

What i hate is not the game but certain players that start comparing. I;m a Gw2 player but the OP really had to go that far to compare. SWTOR is for some ppl and Gw2 is for others and thats that.

GW2 is far from perfect if that is what you were getting at.  While the points you bring up may paint a rosey picture for GW2 (and few could discount the points of comparison), GW2 does have a rather drab storyline, lack of emotes, lack of guild usefulness, lack of proression, lack of character purpose & comparison / rivalries with other characters.  GW2 is extremely more anti-social than SWTOR, although that's not saying much since SWTOR had a strong single player focus as well, just not as bad.

 

Both games are just a throwaway themepark style game that someone will eventually get bored of, although SWTOR had more longevity (to me).  3 months of SWTOR compared to < 1 month of GW2. meh

 

Oh and SWTOR had a helluva lot better music score than GW2 has.

 

So ... SWTOR isn't the perfect MMORPG, but neither is GW2.  If they ever had a child, it would be a kickass MMORPG though!

Mmo's that can mate with each other. Is this the next generation we keep hearing about?

Is it ok if i am playing both of them here and there? Or i need to pick one side and bust my chest as gorilla?

People on this boards never cease to amaze me :P

GW2 at least got publishes who care about game not only profit.

Keeping the AH offline for weeks at launch making the only way to make gold was to buy gems from their store with real money and then use those gems (you paid real money for) to buy in game gold. Hmm your right they dont care about profit lol

LOL this guy let me put my damn tin foil hat on.

 

Was my point not true? Was the AH and forums not available at launch in GW2?

If only way u get gold in mmo is by buying it legaly or from gold sellers i`m very sorry for you. Dont get me started on SWTOR bugs that still not fixed or empty promises of better tomorrow from devs team. At least GW2 more or less close to what they say about content and future updates unlike SWtor, with tones of content that coming soon, very soon probably in 2015 if game servers still be on.

I dont buy gold from farmers nor ingame store. I use the AH, but when a game releases with no working AH leaving the only way to get gold was to buy through them makes them just as greedy as the next DEV. That was my point please read the entire conversation next time. As for anet being close to what they say? Why exactly are players up in arms over adding gear grinding? Hmm again how your dev differ from the others?

They r not my devs. I dont play GW2 at all, had some fun at OBT thats it. With SWtor i was 5 month a sibscriber. I wish Anet was the one to develop SWtor. Anet got GW1 under their belt. So they know thing or two about MMO. EAware clearly know nothing. SWtor as a MMO will be dead within a month if u take Star Wars from it. AS someone above said- Hello Kitty island is better then Swtor.
