Wolfeisberg Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 you know ps2 had good graphical games right? its ok to look like that. Its funny that you can use the terms fanboy/trolling now because GW2 fanboys have been trolling SWTOR forums since launch. All I can say is thanks for funding our mmo. I don't discredit SWTOR, I had a fantastic time with the game, don't regret buying it. But for me its time is spent, the world is static and just not that interesting to play in anymore. I am ready for a new chapter in MMOs, that being a more dynamic world, that is what Guild Wars 2 is going to provide. I am a leveling MMO player, end game raiding or doing the same daily quests every day are things I do not like, so I spend my time leveling different characters, doing the highest level small group dungeons for a little while. But over the years I have grown tired of the static worlds and have found myself only play MMOs for about 3-6 months, just because of the static worlds.

Jett-Rinn Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 I hate to say it but after a while the voice acting in SWTOR is more of a hassle. Now that I have a few 50s I find myself space barring through EVERYTHING -- even other classes stories I've not seen. When beta hit I was the first to defend how amazing the voice acting was... now I really see things from the other perspective and it's not that great... it might even be more of a detriment to the game in the future. I strongly disagree; I have several 50's and I love the voice acting even the side stories I find interesting....unlike GW2 I found that voice acting to be cringe worthy at best...which was a major let down because the video's that Anet showed us made it appear like they were getting these top notch Hollywood voice actors...instead of the local Drama club.

MikelGoff Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 How many times u can run EV or any other FP before its gets boring 10, 20 or 100? what next? 4 WZ? 7out of 10 is Huttball. PvPers dont give a S@#$t how much PvE content is there. Its just something to help with lvling or spend time looking for good PvP. PvPers don't do PvE content? Then why don't they just do arena-style games? Why play an MMORPG if you're never going to do the RPG part of it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfeisberg Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 I never actually claimed GW2 had ps2 graphics. You all should really read more clearly. someone said it has ps1 graphics, i then commented maybe he means ps2 oh really? http://www.swtor.com/community/showpost.php?p=4193455&postcount=113 http://www.swtor.com/community/showpost.php?p=4193548&postcount=128 Clearly you didn't say that Guild Wars 2 had the graphics of a PS2 game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah i agree I got 2 50s and soon 2 more and i Still enjoy it. I skip some quest like standard quest fetch this and kill these often in alien langue, but other than that I do listen to all dialogues.

That's really good actually. I'm glad there are players out there that enjoy the voice acting because they've added it to this game at a very high production cost. No one is denying that SWTOR has the better voice acting, I just personally don't think it's necessary, and it is not a feature I enjoy/need to have fun in a game. I'm worried that moving into the future it's going to keep their production costs high for new content -- and the new content will be hit/miss with players like me that would rather just spacebar.

If it helps, I think swtor is only a little better than ps2 level graphics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfeisberg Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 well gw2 certainly doesnt offer a dynamic world. based off my experience in the beta weekend..... its pretty run of the mill. Not every event has a branching system to it, some events are just on a timer. Other events have a branching dynamic to it, but right now everyone and their dog is in the same place so events really don't have much chance to fail or to branch to a different direction. Later on in the game when the population is more spread out, then you will start to see the branching events. Doesn't take long for the populations to spread out, it took what, a couple of months with SWTOR. When people are starting their alts after having played through 80 levels with their first character, the chances of them seeing a really different zone and events as compared to their first time will be pretty high, even though there will be some events that have already done, but they will see lots of events they have not.

Plus most people actually prefer the story element rather than spacebaring To be fair by people you mean "some people" enjoy it. Not everyone enjoys it; some players are more like me and just want to get into the action. We don't need a 2min cutscence to tell us why we are collecting/killing/clicking 10 things... especially for mundane planet quests/FP that you've already seen. In games like SWTOR I enjoy rushing to 50 to start the endgame progression. The story based questing just gets in the way of how fast I can take another character to the endgame. I don't see the value in wathcing cutscence because it will slow down how quickly I can get to the part of the game I enjoy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pinkink Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 what we managed to c in GW2 this weekend is not even 10% of it release content. Plus graphic settings were not build-in in this beta client. So most of them where set on medium or even less). PvE content didnt look great compared to SWTOR apart from dynamic events. PvP on the other hand looks like it got so much more on offer.

Maddoggy Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 Yeah that's one thing I really missed in GW2 ....no mounts With all the spawn points they have built in, and the ability to travel out an instance immediatly, (instead of walking all the way back swtor style), you dont need mounts. I have been playing beta all weekend and i never had that feeling of "waht a long walk". In GW2 they manage to keep it a game in the right places.
