The game is not for everyone to like(its not WoW herp derp, devs wont BJ you as soon as you post "i quit" thread) and you simply don't have to play it.

But for the love of... DO NOT SHARE WITH US THAT YOU GO.
We don't care and stream of new players more then makes up for loosing of few crybabies who thought its going to be WoW with glowsticks.

Perhaps because Gaming sharks like EA (others as well, like Blizzard) basically think that their customers are brain-dead idiots who just like to "farm" all day long. They think most of the people log in because they want to do dailies all day long and farm for gear.

They are right in one thing. The human mind that wants more and more stuff, even if it doesn't exist at all. Like those epics, everyone wants to have. Little rewards that keep you going. But they do not realize that, even if its in the human nature to gather stuff that they can refer to as "their own" they fail to see that we don't wanna be bored.

Right now it doesn't really matter if I open the book for my next exam and study that or if I log on and play TOR. Its both boring like hell. In fact opening my book and studying would be more fruitful because I would profit from it for my exam, while in TOR I will only get gear.

And the funny thing is, it isn't really hard to actually entertain people in an MMO. Instead of introducing Illum and force people into PvP with lame objectives they could just create lvl areas, in which people are able to meet each other all the time, resulting in amazing world pvp battles.

That is the reason you create PvP and PvE servers, so people can decide if they wanna quest w/o disturbance or not. In addition to this flaw, all of these companies refuse to take the risk on "overheating" the server, because they fear server crashes like a 5 year old the dentist. Its preposterous because they get money monthly from us but refuse to entertain us to a certain extend.

Every single player game out there is more enjoyable than MMO's these days. And I mean all of them, they suck and they don't offer anything anymore. They aren't challenging in PvE and the PvP is horrible most of the time. Also most of them are released unfinished because the whole project is over their heads and because publishers want to make money out of games based on XY days during the year (like xmas). They come from the great universities that apparently have tons of statistics that indicate that sales go up during certain periods in the year.

This is not entirely wrong, but completely idiotic in terms of such games. Its not like I wouldn't have bought this game at the start of the holidays in july.. I don't care if its christmas or any other day, I would have bought this game anytime. This game could have been amazing if they just put more time into it. The endgame content is a pathetic joke for a game and I can easily compare it with any single player endgame content (which is non existent). But instead they needed to release it before xmas, so they can make money out of it early. I don't know if you "win" when putting so much into a costly game like this, when a lot of people just quit because it sucks or because they are bored to death past 50.

I doubt the game will last and its a shame, but fact remains that it feels like a turkey that got out of the oven 2 hours early

almost my whole guild has already said they arnt coming back after the free month and already are looking forward to GW2.
Unfortunately "grinding & mmo" are synonymous. Kinda just the nature of the beast. I enjoy the competitive pvp scene though, so what you may consider just a grind for the new shiny, I actually have fun doing. But yes the genre does entail some form of grind, but that grind isn't all bad. You could also call it character development

Just don't play if you don't like something. I don't get people who log in and find it boring, why play?

Why go to the forums if you really plan to quit? Just go.

I'm enjoying a new game, if I get bored I'll move on (GW2), but I won't be comign here and announcing it like someone cares lol.

Either way gives me reading material for work

Haven't been there for a while I see. Vendors are the only thing left there. And they don't sell anything that you can't find on fleet. Even quest description tells you its not worth it

You call that pvp ? you can see everything that goes on, its a tiny area that is akin to arena if anything. World pvp is NOT a confined silly little circle. that is not pvp content an there's a reason it isnt used, because everyone hates it.
Have none of you ever played an MMO that actually had world pvp ? It is amazing you cant see the issue facing people here. You hit 50 an do....what ? farm a battleground for a shiny, then do it again next day... wander the world pickign up a few datacrons, woop..... Fact is like it or not, there's no content for a game that was designed for you to cap out in a day.....

edit
thats another tihng the game doesn't have, they actively micro control the gameplay by stopping you cold from grinding. Some of us older ones, enjoy grinding be it for money, chances at fun loot whatever. But to have code in the game that removes exp/loot/cash after 3 kills is moronic.
I love to get some music on, an go exploring for pvp fights while I am grinding for cool loot items an chance at something speccy...

Yet tor is the first game I have ever seen that forced you to not do so...
At 50 you cant go grind, an farm for shinys an cash, because when you kill something 3 times, your done.
