There are a few tasks with written text. And I have seen a few quests that were short enough to make you go "huh?", so I can kind of see the point there. But to say that there are a lot of them, or that it is really 'gratuitous'? The merchants are fully voiced, so why wouldn't quest givers be as well?
I didn't say they were gratuitous; I said I could see how people could feel that they were.

People complaining that the game has too much story, and people complaining that the game doesn't have enough story. The internet makes my brain hurt
I am not complaining that there is not enough story.
I could just see why certain people would think that the voice overs are gratuitous for some quests.
-
Again, you're referencing mechanics and not the story itself. And you're simply stating that you end up talking to the original quest giver twice. Why is that so horrible?
The story goes nowhere, that's the point. You may get a little info on whats going on in the planet, but that's it.

Dubious. Troll. I've been to 45 twice in BETA as a smuggler and, no, it doesn't boil down to fetch quests. You obviously haven't been to Voss. Yes, you've got the experience 'dude'.
"What's the Lord of the Rings about?
Oh, some dude goes 'hey can you drop a ring in a volcano?' Then they go and kill some stuff, fight some bosses, and drop the ring off. Its basically like a madlib for every other story ever."
Dude are you kidding me? There are so many freaking fetch quests it's ridiculous. So many Npcs that you talk to once to get the quest and once to turn it in and that's it.

I'm just saying, I could see how the voiceovers would seem gratuitous for those quests.
Have you even played the game yet? :/ Sounds like you're quoting a classic MMo stereo type. And you're just talking about the mechanics of a quest, does that have to do with the story? You realise Legend of Zelda, The Elder Scrolls, Metal Gear, Metroid, etc.. are all full of 'fetch quests' cleverly disguised as a story..? Hey, the Lord of the Rings is one big fetch quest.I guess the entirety of English literature is, therefore, flawed, and a WoW clone - but WoW is, of course, better than life.
Dude I am 40. It starts out good, but it slowly devolves into that.

I would ask you to explain, but there obviously isn't any logic behind that raw statement.
Hey could you go pick up x or do x for me
sure
return after picking up x or doing x
Gee thanks
Never talk to that npc again
SUCH A GREAT STORY LUL
-
Only 80% of the quests aren't story driven at all.

Glad you can tell the future. Will I ever find true love?

What he really meant to say was,
" Devs can you please make this game easy like World of Warcraft"
World of Warcraft's death penalty is harsher lol
-
This game has the least death penalty of any game I've ever played. There's not even a res walk

Currently I'm a level 17 Imperial Agent. I don't know whether it's my level, or I picked a bad server, but it seems like the whole server is empty! I am currently on Balmorra and the highest number of people on Balmorra today is 17! And only about 5 people actually are social lol. Even in the Imperial Fleet it is empty! This means that it's very hard to find people to do flashpoints with, I always get kicked out of battlegrounds because there's not enough people, and I can never find people to do group quests!
Now, I don't know if it's because most people in my server aren't my level or whatever, but it's just annoying. Although, I guess the good thing about this is that I don't have any server queues. (Which I've been hearing lots of complaints about)
As for the server I'm on, I forgot the name. But it's a PvE server and the population status is "standard".
Is anyone else having a problem like this where their servers are just empty? D:
It's gonna feel that way for a while, even if your on a full server. Once you get to planets like Tatooine and Hoth it feels a little better, but still pretty empty.
-
I just can't understand how people so rabidly defend such an average game. It just doesn't make sense to me. I'm not hating on the game either, just observing.
-
Yeah, glad I'm not the only one.
They don't have one for PvE so they shouldn't have one for PvP. I like spending about an hour average getting a group for PvE, it's just fun. Talking etc.
Great game, love it to bits.
You get a group together, you queue. No one else is getting a group together at that time. You wait. Eventually the group falls apart.
-
That can't possibly be it.
I'll say it again, I like the game, but some of these posts are so stupid.
-
there's a reason it shattered all previous records for mmo launches.
There's a reason all the servers are full / heavy.
There's a reason everyone is talking about it,

Hello,
It's what WoW did wrong.
Swing and a miss

When discussing the launch people seem to forget the fact that an entire ZONE was broken for days, heh. Totally perfect

Vette does the same thing with wanting to speak with you on your ship. Just dismiss and resummon them to make sure if it's real.
You can also right click them, and if they say something specific like "Lets talk when you get the chance" then it's real and not a bug.
-
It's a bug. Don't trust the image on their portrait.
-
Well if the problem is due to mounts just make it so mounts aren't able to be used in warzones?
/facepalm

I know the Jedi Consular Boss Vivicar does a one shot ability...you must interrupt every cd or you get rickrolled. Use max stim and hp pots to beat them. Some elites I have to do 2 or 3 times to get it because I'm being lazy.
Yeah, certain mobs should be that hard imo. Especially story bosses.
-
+1 aptly put.
Yeah, don't get me wrong I like the game, but I can tell it's gonna get boring fast. The story starts to suck HARD after chapter 1, at least for IA it does.

Instant gratification culture + strong feelings of anticipation = high risk of disappointment.
I've seen a few legitimate complaints, but the majority seem like the hot air from mouth breathers with an exaggerated sense of self-entitlement.
Average game that made itself out to be some sort of innovative masterpiece for years = disappointment.
This game is "NOT" going to fail.

Also I don't mean just voices in general, I mean the cutscenes.
