Also you didn't tell me what more is because at this point if you are earnest I don't think you know what this 'more' is.

Well, I'm nowhere near 50, but the storyline aspect bothers me as well. Just as storyline in a Bioware game like Dragon Age hardly promotes replayability, I suspect that when I finish the story-lines I'm interested in, I'll likely quit this game. The op is right in saying that the story is the only major difference between this MMO and the others. So what happens when the story runs out? Do we get more story in expansions?

Until I land any sort of position where my opinion affects how a game is made (which will be never), my ideas are not relevant. Record labels sign crappy pop artists because they know they'll sell a million albums with something tried and true. Signing an actual artist is a risk. Same with MMOs. A game company almost always is going to take the safe route because they don't want to risk massive losses.

It's amazing that this game isn't enough like WoW for some and is too much like WoW for others. I'm not saying this to be a jerk, I'm genuinely puzzled. And OP - please speak for yourself. I have been around since the days of MUDS and have played just about every major MMO to come out, yet I like SWTOR. This is why generalizing and speaking in absolutes is a bad idea.

An example of more that should be in this game is the LFG tool. Basic MMO feature missing=fail.

There is no "cloning", it has some of the core features that all MMOs have now a days and does other things differently. It is it's own game, so spare us the "WoW clone" ******** that is based on nothing but your own ignorance of MMOs (hint: when WoW came out it was a "EQ clone" lolol). Perhaps you didn't read my post. I'll just quote myself and you can read that. "...(and I'm aware most of this existed in other MMOs before WoW was even around)..." "...A lot of TOR "fan boys" will surely accuse me of being a WoW 'fanboy,' but I quit WoW years ago and have become totally sick of it..."
