I love the fact described by the OP. It means I spend more time playing and less time pissed off that I have to wander around looking for something to do. I believe the OP would be happy in EVE... that is a 100% sandbox. I got burnt out on it eventually because I don't like the storiless grind and I don't have Vent (bandwidth issue), but you can't get more free than that! If you have a good connection and a smart brain, the PVP there is out of this world... because when you blow up someone's ship... it's GONE FOREVER, and their tears are real.

It's one of the many reasons WoW garnered over 12 million subscriptions while this game is currently struggling. I'm not sure whether to laugh, or feel sorry for this delusion. Lvls 1-10 you level in one area, unless you want to go to another starter area and level there, lvls 11-20, you level in another area, unless you want to do the exact same quests in another 11-20 area and so forth.

No, the game stays on the exact same rails the whole way through. Before anyone asks, yes, I have a max level character. I've also got 2 alts that are more than halfway through the game.

Sorry, but it is the way of themepark MMO's. It's funny to hear people complain about it when people have been playing WoW or other themepark games exactly the same way. They just don't realize it. Vanilla WoW was far less linear than this is, while post-BC WoW was exactly this same type of linear garbage. Stock advanced quest tracker was practically suicidal in a "story driven" game. Thanks for the feature which completely negates any need for me to read into the story, plus quest log information consummately sparse enough that I couldn't do the quest without taking notes during the cutscene, and maybe not even then without heavy exploration.

Agree, EvE may be the direction you'll want to go. Best PvP I've ever experienced. I like the fact that the missions (quests) in TOR are laid out reasonably well in this game. Love that they tie in side quests with whatever main quest you're running.

This is the videogame equivalent to "Pop-Music" Ever since WoW proved the masses can be reached by an MMO, everyone has been looking to be the next boy-band. Probably why these games have turned into stupid dances and silly haircuts. Unfortunately, We're most likely not going to see anything of real depth coming from any of the big money companies anymore.
