  1. Well, I tried to give the game a shot. I became a subscriber, I tried ALL classes (Rep and Emp) to lvl. 10, completed every quest on starting planet, then choose to play as Bounty Hunter - Powertech. At lvl. 34 I became tired of the repetitiveness of the planet quests. The class ones were great, but to get from one to another took too much grind in my opinion. The same, boring crap, over and over again. So I tried... - Starfighter = got one-shotted. Literally. One shot and I exploded. No idea what I was doing wrong. Gave it several tries, the same crap. - Dungeons = my last attempt was waiting 45 min. in a queue. The three runs I had were people mostly yelling at each other for not moving fast enough and not skipping stuff - mobs, cutscenes, well... everything. - PvP = was looking forward to this. To make few levels by fast paced action. I understand that I am a tank spec. So doing 150 auto attack damage seemed okay. Receiving 300-1,500 in return seemed wrong. As being in a 10 sec. CC chain while mine "6 sec. CC immunity" was active. I do not complain about about the other team being 55+ entirely, while we were mostly 30-40 levels. Or to be against 4+ healers teams. Its random, it happens. But it is not fun. And I do pay for fun. The PvP was a last straw for me. Unbalanced (3 sec. alive vs. another player as tank with def. CD up..lol), unfun (3 sorcerers spamming Storm at the bomb placement...lol.... endless CC chains... getting yelled by the system to be active and contribute while on GY behind a force field). I am no longer looking forward to get to max. level. Subscription is cancelled, game uninstalled. And frankly I have lots of respect for all people who are still playing. Btw. I have found over 28 bugs in the game while playing something over two weeks. Lol...
  2. Thank you everybody for your input, I will probably start with the Inquisitor. You have been a great help!
  3. Hello everybody, I am interested mostly in the overall galactic mythology, like the Infinite Empire and such, forgotten and ancient technologies and races, not as much in the politics between Empire and Republic. Which class would you recommend for me with the best approach to such lore, which locations, skills, planets, professions etc. Where to start and where head to? Any suggestion is welcome, thank you in advance.
  4. Hello everybody, I am leaving SWTOR, as I am not happy with the game, but I think developers kinda deserve some constructive feedback. It is based on my subjective experience, you may agree or disagree, but please make it civil and constructive. I will not respond in the thread not to cause any flamewars, still, fell free to voice your opinion. I also try to be as short as possible. Questing - largest part of the game. Quests are very monotone, actually only 4 types: use item, bring item, kill number of mobs, go and talk. Taking into consideration that the leveling span in this game is fairly long (which is good), the leveling after lvl. 18-20 becomes plain boring and very repetitive. Personal story - enjoyed very much every bit of it. Only if there were not 2-5 lvl. of grind between each interesting event. Space combat - I liked it very much, but too few missions and low experience from it make it not an alternative to leveling, which is a bit of pity, as it could help you overcome the 1-2 levels you need for the next planet but you have done all the available quests. PvP - is a pile of.... joke. Copied WoW PvP along with battlegrounds. There is a reason why WoW PvP is not considered PvP and is shunned by all electronic sports tournament (except the ones Blizz makes for promoting they very bad system). It is unbalanced, NOT skill based, actually a bad copy of a bad game. Even if I won most of my games, always been in the TOP 5, never fell any satisfaction or fun. My biggest problem was Huttball a battleground based on who has the push back spell available. Nuff said. Legacy - great idea and I loved it. Although I have the feeling, the feature is only partial and not in final state. Which is shame, as it is original and interesting and should be one of the main features of the game. Crafting - never got any profession on max. Waiting 38 minutes for a mission which fails. Really? Crafting useless items I cant use or sell. Yes, Biochem. Its nice. Also grenades or ship parts. But my time is more precious. I mean 38 minutes!!! Artistic direction - Mostly I liked it, even when you are on the 7-8th planet and they all look the same, with the same humans and droids running around. Loved the models of Twileks, only non-humans which looked a bit different. Was nice and refreshing. All in all, I used to like the game, but after digging deeper, the flaws grew more tedious and the fun was lost. It resembles too much of WoW and I am not interested in such a game. To improve the game I think it needs more BIOWARE and less BLIZZARD, as when you left your imagination run wild, you came up with fantastic stuff. But where you tried to emulate WoW, with its decade old gameplay features (taken from AC, EQ, and whatever else) you end up creating a grudgingly boring and frustrating game. Good luck to you all, especially to people staying here. Hope you will enjoy it as I used to enjoy it. If I was too harsh, I apologize, I was just stating my opinion. Good luck also to Bioware, played all of your games and enjoyed it to the max. Well... most of them. May the Force be with you!
