Hello, my name is Deyo, and I play the game because I think it's fun.
The content and voice acting are entertaining, the action is fast-paced and sometimes challenging, and the various flashpoints/operations are engaging and varied. I normally shun PvP like the Black Death, but I've been in a couple of warzones in SWTOR, and might even do it again.
I see the population shrinking, and it worries me a little bit. Not a lot, but a little bit. I think it would be good if Bioware found a way to aggregate the population, either through merges or cross-server play.
In the end, though, SWTOR is an awesome single-player game with a good MMO attached, and some pretty decent PvP features added on that don't feel like an afterthought.
If I could change one thing about SWTOR, it would be the space missions. They're a very minor part of the game, and they feel even more optional (and more tacked-on) than the PvP systems. I'd like to see ways to run space missions as a group, distinct differences in ship types, and maybe even space mission flashpoints! Imagine a couple of Sith charging into a fleet action, making a lot of noise and turning Republic fighters into debris, while an Agent evades sensor nets to strike at a cruiser's shield generators, then a Bounty Hunter boards the cruiser to bring the whole group into an interior mission...
