Before KOTET 5.0 came out WOW has my favorite mmo. That was my go to mmo everyday. But as time went on my frustration with WOW increased because whenever a new expansion came out the previous content got outdated real quick. The world of WOW is so huge but that huge world gets completely outdated and irrelevant because of new expansion. This was my biggest frustration with WOW.
But SWTOR its completely different. Old content never gets outdated thanks to the Galactic Command system and the level sync. No matter how many new patches of content bioware will create in the future old content like flashpoints, ops and daily zones will never get outdated and that is why 5.0 made me fall in love with SWTOR.
Another biggest reason to quit WOW Legion for SWTOR is because I want to play the game at my own pace. But that cannot happen with WOW because to get the best gear people have to commit to a raiding guild. But with SWTOR people can get the best gear by opening the command crates.
So I want to thank Bioware for making the hard decisions. Bioware knew the vocal minority won't like their decisions but they stick to their guns because their knew the changes in 5.0 are best for the game in the long run.
