poppen Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 My hypocrisy detector just exploded. So sayeth the fanboy. I'm genuinely happy with the game and would be playing it right now if i could. If that makes me a fanboi then I guess that is what I am Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cesmode Posted January 4, 2012 Author Share Posted January 4, 2012 Let me ask everyone two questions: Do you prefer questing where you go to an area, kill 12 boars or Blood elves, and maybe loot 12 items, turn the quest in, and done? Thats WoW, go play it. Do you like not knowing what the story is about within the game to which youre paying 15$ a month(Other than some cheesy cutscenes with Thrall in a loin cloth in the middle of the ocean somewhere)? Thats WoW, go play it. If you answered yes to the above questions, how come all we hear from WoW players is that quests are so boring..that they are sick of killing 10 wild hogs for a 10 hog flanks..that they want a more interesting quest line. SWTOR fixes that for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SWTOR fixes that for you. Other than a VO vs reading the quest text you just described TOR as well. I call it the 'Shiny Object Theory'. At first people go "Ooooo Ahhhh" and then they stop paying attention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karkais Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 THe forum should have a 'like' button so I could show support to the topic post. This has been the best new MMO launch experience for me. I think TOR is here to stay. How long until this game hits Free To Play? Id say six years at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At first people go "Ooooo Ahhhh" and then they stop paying attention. I disagree. I do not think the quests are only 'Kill X monsters' , or 'Loot X bear flanks'. There are many quests where you need to obtain an item, go to a holoterminal, play a recording, then go to another area, do something else... Or Plant bombs on some sand peoples' water dispenser stuff Or Turn a droid into a friendly Or use some sort of EMP blast to disable a shield that is protecting a turrent, so you can then destroy that turret. OR You are given the choice to Sit and meditate, destroy the object, shoot lightening at the object...and whatever action you take would have a different result. Yes, you have some of the basic quests, but they have woven in a good dose of other types of quests. I think the quest lines are very well done. I just dont have Kill quests in my quest log.

I was around for AION, Warhammer, and that thing Star Trek Online. This is the smoothest launch so far,and if I am not mistaken, it had the most pre-orders of any mmo in history.

LightLight Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 But you are complaining about my complaining thread in which there are complainers of complainers of...crap. Does it ever end?? Brother, will you stand and fight with me here, for Middle Earth for the Elv...crap, wrong game again. Well...I am complaining about your post again! Therefore, I am complaning about you complaining about me and therefore we are complaining about complaning! Ha! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cesmode Posted January 4, 2012 Author Share Posted January 4, 2012 I know what the story is about, it's called I am not afraid of reading. Well, I commend you. You are probably the 1% of people that read the entire quest(not just the part where it told you what to do). **Watch all of those people come out o fthe wood work "Oh I read the quests too", "Me too!" ...like the icecream truck is rolling through their street and they want a cone.
