so you skipped the entire point of this mmo (story) to power level your way to 50 and are now complaining that you have nothing to do. yep, that makes sense.

I never got a quest to kill 10 wompas on Hoth. You know, Wompas are the big Yeti type things on Hoth, right? Actually, the quests are all pretty interesting.

Ilum...you are joking right?
Dailies...nope, no point
Farming credits...Have 15 million
Roll an alt?...35 Sniper, 25 Jug
Battlemaster...yup

/boored
Why on earth would you do that?!?!

Do you seriously have nothing better to do than log into a game just to stare at the screen for an hour?

Man some people have way too much time on their hands.

Do something else if you are bored, this isn't the only recreational activity left in the world.
Dark or Light..... I can't decide!

If you're a hard-core power-leveler (which you clearly are), then yeah, most MMOs aren't going to last very long for you. You're the type of person who races to the level cap, gets all the current end-game goodies, then proclaims there's nothing to do, while the other 99% of the game's population is still leveling, creating alts, etc.

Hell, you even admitted you just spacebar'd your way through all the quests, because you don't care at all about the story.

If MMOs are only about getting to the level cap, with shiny "purples" and peeveepeeing, I'd suggest MMOs aren't really the ideal sort of game for you. Try FPS games. Seriously. No need for story, just killing.

104 hours and you've got a 50 with maxed out gear, AND a 35th level and 24th level alts. Jeez. I've been playing since day-1, and my highest is 32, because I keep bouncing around between other classes to see the stories. I'm nowhere as "efficient" as you are, but you know what? I'm having WAY more fun than you are.

lol.

And, apart from class quests, unfortunately true.

Choices do NOT matter, nothing in the game world changes as a result of your choices, you spend 5 levels on a planet supposedly fighting imperials/republic, you supposedly deliver crippling blows, and nothing changes.....

Even WOW managed to phase stuff so things changed. For a story driven MMO surely that should have been damm important.

Class quest are ok, not amazing, but enough to be moderately interesting, but side quests are verrrrry tedious. Esp if you've already leveled one character, no way in hell am I listening to all that again.

That's like saying fast forwarding the Star Wars movies and save the time just to get the the end because the result is your still paying the same amount of money for a product with the only intention to complete it.

Same goes with life bro, stop and smell the roses. Enjoy it because you never know when it will come to an end.

And in SWTOR, my friends and I have been loving the stories we are playing in. I've been playin since most here from day one of early access and have a lvl 32, 26, and 19.
