For the millionth time, why so many players here say this is a single player game

SWTOR: you click on one or two elevators to get to YOUR hangar to board YOUR ship, no other players and a few loading screens. Inside your ship: just you. You click to your destination. A loading screen. You arrive and exit the ship. A loading screen. You run through another hangar - no other players, just you. You click on an elevator - another loading screen.

They never set out to make an mmo like Wow, they never advertised it as such, and they never suggested it would be that way. Frankly that was the whole reason I picked up the game.

On Modern Warfare 3:
1) The Horde Fleet is basically a lobby for level 50s
2) SWTOR has matchmaking, it's just called screaming "LFM XYZ" in chat
3) Hilarious point — the "large" Raid Size in SWTOR is... 16 players
4) SWTOR's worlds are small, and chopped up

@ OP

It is fun how you glorify wow, but honestly the stuff you say is wrong and very flawed.

1. At vanilla wow, you had no flight mounts. At TBC you had flight mounts at 68, but only at Outland and even there you still couldnt fly where you wanted. There were invincible walls everywhere at outland.

2. Yes you could choose your path at wow, but only to a certain degree. As an UD you couldnt do most Orc specific quest´s, so that if you changed the starting location by running for an hour, dieing many times - then you still had to grind mobs until 10 so you could start doing no class restricted quest´s.
The problem with wow is, that you miss out like 50% of the quest´s - because there are just too many quest´s and you outlvl them too fast. There is no fun with playing an MMO, where you skip half the content all the time, as you lvl too fast. At vanilla wow this worked a lot better, but even there about 20% of the quest´s were not doable at their specific quest lvl, which is a shame for an MMO.

3. Loading screens do exist at wow and they are not few. You got a big loading screen everytime when you are on a ship. You do have loading screens if you travel from expansion to expansion, also if you enter a dungeon, Raid, BG, Arena.

4. The world at wow seems to be less restricted if you walk, but you cant run past mountains there either.

5. The LFG tool made wow die outside of cities. If you ever played vanilla, what I doubt - then you should know that back then many people were around outside of cities, either doing pvp or quests. Today 70% of the people sit in town, waiting for the queue. This is not a sign of a good MMO but of a nice Singleplayer with bot support.

... Themepark games are bad over all. ...

Bioware has been going in the wrong direction for a while with this.

Take Mass Effect 1 vs Mass Effect 2. In ME1, people where complaining about an elevator ride that was quite long..... but the world where nice, big and immersive. In ME2 the elevators had been replaced by horrendously long load screens (as if that would be better) and the worlds where small, constrained, and consisted mostly of corridors.
