Playing just a couple hours during weekdays, mostly weekend warrior with a leveling partner. We just got to 40. Loving it. The only space bar we hit are the Cantinas.

That's filthy lies and slander! You take that back! Take it back right now!!! All those other Mako's out there are clones. Mine is the original and she's a precious angel, as pure as snow. That bar code on the back of her neck is just a tattoo. It means "blossom" or something. She told but I forget. She's mine!!!

You missed something somewhere. You should never run out of quests while leveling in this game. Check your log to see if there is something under the Class category that would have taken you to another planet. Go do Tattooine bonus quests or even Nar Shaddaar bonus quests (get the quest to go back there on the Fleet I think).

Once you get in the groove, the Shadow is a pretty dancer as mentioned. Twirling double bladed saber. Don't let the light armor fool ya, they have the abilities/talents to toughen up. Plus stealth tank, comon how cool is that? Huge potential for solo'ing flash points later and passing through areas while farming or chasing specific heroic quest targets without having to fight through everything. I like my Vanguard probably because I like the Trooper. It's not as flashy as the Shadow but I like charging at stuff and firing lasers at it, never got to do that in an MMO before (if there are games out there that have classes like that I didn't play them.) My Vanguard already had his honey bunny healer companion pretty early, while the Shadow got stuck with Tharan repeatedly reminding him that he's a pacifist. But that's more of a solo and flavor consideration. I haven't gotten a Guardian high enough to get a good feel for it, tanking wise. It simply comes down to personal preference, either a class clicks with you or it doesn't. Like I'm not fond of the cover mechanic of the Smuggler/Agent so my Smuggler/Agent alts are collecting dust even though their stories are pretty fun.

Mako. She's just adorable. I tried to go a little too fast with her and she put me in the friend zone for now. Kaliyo is such a pain to predict when it comes to conversations. -1, -1, -1, -30. She'll get -1 just for telling an NPC to explain what they are talking about. I think they made her a wild card just so you'd have to buy her affection. The Trooper's whole team is pretty solid.

11. Because of Mako and Watcher 2 (I'm leveling with a friend playing an Agent). Love the game, person I'm playing with loves it, people in our guild love it. Probably give it a realistic 9.something/10 because of the occasional missing eyes during conversations. Friend and I are taking it nice and slow and already have been planning out our next set of alts. The people who space barred to 50 and then complain about nothing to do are the same people who go to the 10 Items or Less isle at the store with 11 items and then argue about it with the cashier for no reason.

Like this needed it's own thread. Why didn't you just post it in one of the other Burger King threads? Burger King Thread = "I want it my way right away."

The game is fine. Are you actually playing it? And comparing what the complainers are saying compared to what's actually really happening in-game? Cause if so I can't understand how you can honestly believe some of these whiners. They are exaggerating like crazy. "Garbage!" "Unplayable!" "Game stole my bike!" It's like listening to a little kid tell a whopper of a story about how some green monster with purple spots just snuck through the kitchen and made a sandwich out of paper. His parents nod and smile and ask for more details to see how far the kid will go with his tale. But they know it's his imagination. Those of us playing the game know that some of this ridiculous negativity about this game is just people's imagination. We can see with our own eyes how things are. It's not as bad as you story tellers are making it out to be. If it's unplayable, how am I playing it? How are the people I see in-game playing it? Wizard did it?

I tried on the Bounty Hunter. I was ready to go full Dark Side, made a real bloodthirsty brute. Then I got Mako and became a softy again. I can't resist her power. I'll try full Dark Side on another class someday. Mako!!!

They want you to get frustrated by the lack of NPC hookups and, out of desperation, hookup with male players. How you doin'?

So you don't have a core crew to run with or a Guild but the people who do and don't need the Group Finder are the anti-social ones? Bad choice of insult tactic there.

Makes ya wonder doesn't it? Are the complaints sincere, or is the complaining itself the goal?

Auto turn is a good thing. Don't turn it off. Eliminating the tactic of running through people to delay their casting is not enough of a con to outweigh the pros. New game. Use new tactic.

Maybe there will be a voice acting boom and that will save the economy? Maybe I could get a job as a voice actor? Too bad I sound like a frog. Hey! Maybe someone's making a game that involves frogs? /dreams

If meters are coming then it should be built in and everyone should have it. Cause there's one thing on this planet that is worse than the guy who posts meter results after every pull, and that's the guy who asks, "ne1 got a meter?" Go ahead and say it a few times. Right there, out loud, at your computer. Say it. "Anybody got a meter?" Makes one of your eyes twitch doesn't it? Those people are the lowest life form in the gaming community. They are even below the guild leader who demands a raid spot after getting home from work only to fall asleep at his keyboard 15 minutes into the run. Yeah, they're worse than that guy. So give everyone a built in meter so we won't have to see "ne1 got a meter?" It's like being propositioned by an elderly street walker. "Wanna party?" *screams*

The game is fine. I see the forum goobers using words like "horrible" when they describe it. Really? Horrible? Is this the first game they've ever played? I find it extremely hard to fathom that TOR comes off as "horrible" to them compared to some of the garbage that is out there. If you find this game horrible, then computer games obviously aren't for you. Go back to playing frisbee golf. I and the people I play the game with are loving it. In fact, I don't see how you can be a gamer AND a fan of Star Wars and NOT like this game. And what gamer isn't a fan of Star Wars? That's like an accountant who hates calculators. Make some friends, have some fun. The game is fine.
