Selvec Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 I wish their wasn't so many grinding missions covered up by fancy dialog. I wish finding people to roleplay with was easier, and I didn't have to share my server with people who aren't interested in RPing at all, but prefer the RP server because the PvE one is to busy. I wish I could find people to party with. I wish I could find people in general. In short. I enjoy the game, I wish I could enjoy it more, but its very very hard to do so. The faults are so glaring, and for an MMO, I feel very very alone while playing SWTOR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rafaman Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 So... Yup. Sure do. And there are many reasons. But rather than go in to it, I have a question for you OP. You have already made it clear in a thread you started a few days ago that you were in fact done with the game, have unsubbed, and are spending your remaining days trolling the forums for fun to the ire of the so called fanboys. So... seriously... since your other thread was deleted because of your brazen admission that it was not meant to be a conversation, is this your lame attempt to revive the thread?

mistahsquiggles Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 SWTOR is incredibly mediocre. I un-subbed the day before F2P was announced, and as soon as it was announced it only reaffirmed my decision. I 100% agree with all the OP's points. Bye-bye Spacebar Wars.

Not sure which thread you are talking about as I had two that were deleted. However, this thread is legitimate. Make what you will of it.

DuckKing Posted August 6, 2012 Author Share Posted August 6, 2012 (edited) Ok. So, this time it's legitimate... ... ... Hey man I have no shame. Your right though, my time is slimming down here and I have 2 infractions and 5 warnings under my name. Maybe three of those warnings were deserved. I never planned to go out rampant. I kinda felt I should backlash a bit at this point as I don't see myself returning here for quite sometime. I may return when this game gets more fleshed out, but as of right now it doesn't hold much of my interest. It gets pretty damn frustrating dealing with BioWare, and I'm sure I frustrate the crap out of others as well. Anyways, once my time is up here, maybe this forum may operate differently, in a more positive light. Edited August 6, 2012 by DuckKing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kubernetic Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 I absolutely enjoy SWTOR. And almost none of the OP's concerns bother me. This is not Everygame. This is a particular game developed with a particular strategy to accomplish a few particular goals, and I think it has been a lot of fun. I've finished one class story, finished chapter 2 on a second, almost finished chapter 2 on a third, and still have 5 other class stories left to go. I've almost exclusively played Republic characters, and now that I'm learning that a player needs characters on both sides for the HK-51 missions, I'll be starting an Imperial character soon. Additionally, even though repeating through the same planet quests has become somewhat of a drain, I've just discovered how much fun PVP is in this game, and thus have been liberated from having to grind through them. Legacy perks have made it easier to level up alts, and that's only a good thing. Yes, I absolutely enjoy this game. I play no other at this point.

Rikeryo Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 Perhaps not having ambitious expectations for something as trivial as a video game clouds my judgement. Maybe if virtual pwnage was my path to glory and self-esteem I would better understand what all the griefing is about. But it isn't so I don't. Guess I'll just have to answer yes then ... I thoroughly enjoy SWTOR. for such a trivial thing as a video game you're quite motivated to play the blind white knight everywhere on this forum. are you getting paid for that?

Calarand Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 The title says all and be honest here. I'll be honest, and I'll say: YES, I do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clipperson Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 I enjoy playing SWTOR, but I undestand you. Most of your points are true, but these bother me too much. At times I get really frustrated by the lack of Biowares communication. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vian Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 The title says all and be honest here. [bunch of crits snipped]. Well, since it's for posterity. (Force cookies for anyone who knows who Count Rugen is). You seem to be asking, in your long and oft-heard rant "Do you really enjoy this sucky game which sucks, because I say it sucks? Because I think it sucks." Let me clear that up for you. Yes I do. Am I looking forward to them continuing to add stuff, and innovate? Sure. But I'm also enjoying it now. Do I think it's perfect and nothing needs fixing? No. Do I think Bioware should fix exactly what I want them to, in the order I want them to, nownownowdammit? Errr, well, it'd be nice, but no. I suspect they have a plan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LibertySol Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 3. To me NPCs don't feel static or lifeless at all. The old couple that bickered while needing my help, the jerk trainer, the relatives of my companion. The list of really engaging PCs goes on and on. As I go by folks I hear snippets of conversation about thier hopes and dreams. The world feels vibrant and a live to me. Most folks I do a quest for or interact with are engaging and interesting. Some of them have great voices. I love the voice of the guy I intimidate to stop making fun of another NPC or the wonderfully strange Gree color based phrases. To me it's definitly not lifeless at all, they are lively, interesting and wonderful. When I get an Email from someone I helped or someone I didn't help it is great, it feels alove and vibrant and reminds me that the NPC that sent it has thier own story arc even if I am not involved with them anymore. People like this guy are why BioWare/EA are the way they are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DuckKing Posted August 6, 2012 Author Share Posted August 6, 2012 (edited) Am I looking forward to them continuing to add stuff, and innovate? Innovate everything that caters to people who play alts... I have two alts and my main, both my alts are level 30+ but as a person who likes to roleplay alot I like to adventure and invest more time into my main more than anything. I just used my alts for some cool perks. That's about it. Edited August 6, 2012 by DuckKing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarvelZombie Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 Sure...I'll reply to the obvious troll post: yes, I absolutely enjoy SWTOR. Could it be better? Sure. Every game I've ever played could be better. But that's never stopped from enjoying them. I think I finally get some of these threads: some people just can't stand the fact that some of us are having fun playing a game that they don't like. Why they give a pancake what I like, however, is beyond me. I don't take time out of my day to go to the WoW forums and piss all over it because it's not my cup of tea.

ReverendAnderson Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 Turns out the TC is on my ignore list from some other topic, so I can only respond to the topic title. Yes, I enjoy SWTOR. I wouldn't be paying for it every month if I didn't. As soon as I stop enjoying it enough, I will stop paying for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moaky Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 People like this guy are why BioWare/EA are the way they are. Why? For enjoying something that matches his/her tastes? I have had a great time in TOr thus far(All 8 classes past Act 1 to date). Sure I would like to see some more memorable NPCs in the vein of EQ, but overall I am enjoying myself. Isnt that the bottom line? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ImperialSun Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 Even with all of the now well documented issues that SWTOR has, yes I do enjoy it very much. Would I prefer SWG2.0? Yes I would. Do I consider the sub fee worthy of the enjoyment I get from playing SWTOR? Yes I do. Driz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one said anything about going to piss all over the WoW froums. I will say though Blizzard still does miles better managing their game than how BioWare treats their game and their subscribers.

BatMorph Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 Yes, I enjoy playing SWTOR and so does the rest of my family. 4 accounts that will stay subbed long after it goes F2P.

DigitalPrime Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 I enjoyed it, But from day one i said its too linear. Everything feels funnelled. As soon as i stepped into the GW2 world. I knew TOR has missed a trick. Using the Hero engine killed this game for any epic MMOness. everytrhing is sharded. Jeeesh, on a fleet with under 200 people. The system creates a new shard. .. yeh..really MMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
