This guy may have a point, but you got to look at it in a different perspective. Of course some of the ideas he brought were very much true but this game is only about a month and a half old so it still needs time.

I myself have been a WoW player since Vanilla and I know how the game has developed since the beginning. WoW had issues in the beginning phases too. Some of you are just comparing WoW to this game, which has been out since 2004 (7 years now) and that isn't fair.

My point is, give this game some time to develop and mature. It has many flaws, of course, but you can't simply compare it to WoW and say that it sucks. The story is by far much better than WoW and starting a different character every time can be different and interesting, in my opinion at least.

This guy can do what he wants by quitting and just sticking to WoW, I'm simply giving some feedback on what he and other people have to say about this brand new game.

Great and honest review from the person who made the video.
Outnumbered on all sides. Inferior version of "mirrored" abilities. Republic players are the real underdogs playing the game on hard mode. Show pride in your tenacity.

He had many valid points but he's wrong on many fronts.

Which fronts? I guess you could argue against his preference of WoW cooldown-based healing over SWTOR healing, but the bugs/performance issues/lack of add-ons are dead on.

It is hard to find bugs in WoW any more. I can't really name a game breaking bug in WoW off the top of my head from after Cataclysm launch. Meanwhile, SWTOR has crap tons of bugs and performance issues ATM that break the game, such as weeklies/daily progress not counting, horrible warzone/ilum performance, issues with characters getting stuck, animation glitches, CTDs, etc.

The devs themselves said not to expect a miracle solution, and I'll need +100% performance just to be over 30 fps in warzones at all times. I'll need +600% performance to be > 30 fps in Ilum op v. op. This is with a Phenom II x4 and a Geforce 560 ti. I am not upgrading for this game when I can play BF3 64-player on high settings and full 1080p + Antialiasing.

Countless bugs while leveling up with quests in WoW, too many to name. Same with Firelands and Dragon Soul. Take Firelands for example, the fourth(?) boss, Rhyolith, will randomly turn friendly and then wipe the raid. Take in mind that this didn't happen until after Dragon Soul came out. And how about herbs being phased out? That's also a pretty big one since this can stifle economies.
