i'm a big fanboy of this game. take a look at my post log it'll prove it. i'm Always defending it against ignorant arguments by trolls.
but i do agree that WOW in a sense has more SOMETHING at end game. its still the same grind feast yes i understand that. but there's something there.
honestly i really thought about this because i'm playing WOW more than SWTOR now.
and i really ironed it out to two things.
the environments are better in WOW.
SWTOR can change this around easily just start adding more fluff and pathing on critters. plus make the draw distance better on the environment details. that's a big one. because honestly the ground "clutter" looks SO MUCH better in SWTOR. if you could just increase that draw distance i would get so much better emmersion factor.
and then second. YES the dungeon finder.
I can get groups easily in SWTOR let me get that straight right now. i don't mind waiting 5 or 10 minutes to get a group together maybe even 20 if i'm feeling good that night. But the thing about SWTOR is that waiting time. that's me just standing around doing nothing except trying to get a group together.
i gotta STOP what i'm doing and focus on getting a group. Yeah i can quest and all while i wait for responses and i usually do. but lets face it if you WANT a group in SWTOR you gotta spend some time on it.
in WOW i can quest and do my thing while i wait for my DF to pop. SO MUCH better because then its like playing two games in one. the DF and the regular single player game. which is me fishing, cooking, harvesting, trolling chat, shopping or just farming for some rare.
I think both games are disjointed. just WOW does a better job at hiding it. maybe that's what it actually comes down to.
