Kikilicious Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 (edited) Yes. My reason is because I've been looking for something like this. I had been wanting a game wher I could customize my character, and play through a dynamic story where I could make my own choices. I know there are other games like that, but I wanted to play an MMO as well, if not together, seprately. The fact that they came together helps. Just my two cents.

DieAlteHexe Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 I made you angry, so what category are you? The category that doesn't take pleasure in trying to incite other people. I rather like it. And I rather do not like those who take pleasure in trying to start fights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Esproc Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 (edited) I don't think this is a valid question. If you strip out all the star wars elements (Jedi's/sith, lightside/darkside, starwars locations), you have a completely different game. If you're asking me if I would play this game if it was completely different game. Well the answer would be it depends on what kind of game it would be . All that comes to mind is Pandas and Poke'mon. But I would still play SW:TOR as it does not have Jar Jar Binks, Ewoks, Elves, Orcs, talking Cows, Toe Jam, and other stuff I learned to dislike. It does have Potential, VO cut-scenes, a fair and soon to be improved Crafting Skills setup, room for expansion both planet/s and character, teeth that have yet to grow in, and my very own personal droid - although I can't find the switch for the voice modulator.

Sugarray Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 No. 1) Bioware seems to eliminate competition/work for reward. 2) PvE is too easy, so is PVP since gear will be handed out. 3) Apparently Bioware only cares about casual players. 4) Small (easy fixable) bugs are not getting worked out. 5) Raiding comes with a lot of bugs... fix it already. 6) No obvious place to duel(everyone is at fleet) - duels provides a lot of practise 7) I am very tired of smashing my space button in HM's i've done 30 times. (add a skip cut scene, that everyone in group must agree to or w/e) 8) Poor to pathetic communication with community from Biowares side. 9) Apparently Bioware only cares about casual players. 10) Apparently Bioware only cares about casual players. 11) Apparently Bioware only cares about casual players. 12) Apparently Bioware only cares about casual players.

ConradLionhart Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 I would because it is created by Bioware who wants to put RPG back into MMORPGs again. There was a promise that I don't think they kept, and that is non-linear questing. But I guess it is too difficult because the more branches you have, the more you have to code.

Vecke Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 If this game was not Star Wars, but some other lore/world/universe, would you still play? If yes, list 3 reasons why. If no, list 3 reasons why. Constructive and civilized responses only please. To be honest, that's an unanswerable question. It would depend on whether or not the story/lore/universe was one that I found intriguing or interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dego_Locc Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 (edited) Its awesome while you level, but at end game its not really special Yea, it's a nice one trick pony, but with alts all the same side quests are too painfully boring to balance against the only new thing you will see, which is the alts main class quest. Every route, every path you take will more than likely be the exact same, you could probably trace your footsteps. "Linear glorified hallways" are what the planets in SWTOR are.

vincent- Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 No I can't really give 3 reasons I've been in beta sense July I gave Bioware itself so many reasons not to release this yet, I pretty much detailed quests game mechanics that are in here still that just murders a real opportunity for something to remember and would have made ones quest special. But I was flooded by something else call it biodrones haters who knows I didn't pick a side I just wanted to give my 2cents to see something good.

Fardarter Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 I have come to the conclusion that the game was simply released too early. Rather than answer the question I am going to give the game another shot at a later date and see it with fresh eyes. It has been brought to light recently that many projects concerning the game were axed to meet the launch window. I am done hating on this game because it has become clear what it really needs is time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MORTTUUM Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 Did it , does not help at all .

Saltybill Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 absolutely! the whole star wars premise wasn't what sold me on it... what got me was the questing, voice acting, pvp, grouping, and most importantly, sci fi! lightsabers were just an added benefit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frostyforce Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 Definately not. 1. Dragon Age 2 sucked and has ruined my impression of all Bioware games since as well as those yet to come. 2. Jennifer Hepler. Need I say more? 3. I quit WoW after the crusader patch for WotLK. I had played since launch and after investing so much time and money in that game I had become burnt out with mmo's in general. Rift almost brought me back but I didn't really like the setting so I didn't touch it. Then SWToR comes along and here I am. I love Star Wars and sci-fi in general so I really just needed a really good setting and story to bring me back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miravlix Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 If this game was not Star Wars, but some other lore/world/universe, would you still play? If yes, list 3 reasons why. If no, list 3 reasons why. Constructive and civilized responses only please. If this game engine was used to create Mass Effect Online I would play that too. But the question is idiotic, so much of the game mechanics is tied into the fact your a Jedi Knight or the world design ties into it being Star Wars, I doubt ME-O using the same engine would feel anything like this.

Lord_of_Stone Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 Yes. Great story, regardless of sci fi universe. Great characters and voice acting. Thats it. Thats all I need. Videogames IMO are the best medium of story telling, as they are the most immersive. Thats why I play them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rzrknight Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 Nope. 1 reason is enough: This game is not the best at anything atm , it is quite a dull game compared to many others lol, still the SW theme is cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord_of_Stone Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 Its in all reality not a true bioware game. bioware from pre-2006 no longer exists, most of their talent pool IE upper level development staff that created the old bioware titles such as Boulders gate series up to DA:O and ME1. All have resigned from bioware to join smaller studios. Majority of them all sharing the comment of "they did not like the direction the studio was heading" (funny enough this all started right after the EA buyout) So in reality your not playing a Bioware title, you are playing a EA title sold under the bioware name. Ah yes the casual gamer stereotype. The "new and shiny" crowd are about as stable as paper kite in a hurricane when it comes to MMO subscription demographics. Citation needed please. Just spent about 10 mins googling the best I can and I cant find anything about developers leaving Bioware. In fact, the same three people have been in charge of the creative development of all Bioware games from Baldur's Gate to Mass Effect 3. So again, please cite your information before spouting hipster nonsense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
