Are You Feeling "Burned Out" by SWTOR?

Lack of meaningful end-game pvp leaves me feeling burnt out.

Republic : 50 Vanguard : 50 Sentinel : 50 Scoundrel : 17 Sage : The Shadow Runner

For me, after I play for a couple hours my mind can't help but focus on the grindfest. I don't mind combat, or even frequent combat, but when the game itself is hinged upon it from doing something as easy as moving from place to place. Also, during combat, the skill rotation is the same and becomes boring as well. If not for these two things, I don't think I'd notice the drag of the game.

Yeah, I felt like this. But I went in and started to finish my crafting, did some space battles and did PVP. Started to really enjoy the PVP in this game. Then I got on a Trooper and loved that character, and kind of pulled me back in.

I also helped some people out with lower flashpoints I didn't do before, and one I did do. Found it to be enjoyable. If things get dull, I change it up, to an alt, or doing something differently.

You guys are burnt out because they made it far to easy to level up. They set it up to make it easy so there isin't much gratification hitting level 50.

Not really burned out, but also feel no need to log in any more.
-Game is WAY too linear to roll an alt, I've levelled allot of them in beta, so cant be bothered to see the same things over and over and over again...
-Only 3 pvp maps and no objectives on illum like forts etc doesn't make me eager to play pvp.
-After getting all my gear from heroics i also see no reason to run those any more.

So in short: i have no real reason to log back in atm.

Enjoying the game and still playing casually, but I do get frustrated by the extreme linearity and lack of open exploration options.

That and there seems to be so much hand holding that there is very little to sort of discover how to use yourself. Example off the top of my head is space, not only is it on rails but I laugh everytime I see it

"Missiles Useful"

Really? Are there people out there who could not honestly figure this out having fun with a little trial and error? And is the denominator so low that "missiles useful" had to be put in? Sort of symbolizes the "can't put my finger on it aspect" of why I like the game for what it is but hoping for more.

This assumption is predicated that everyone complaining is level 50. I know I'm not.

It's an MMO. The reason to log in is the community you build with people. If you play solo, of course you're gonna get burnt out. Also, this game is a little over month from launch. New content galore will come out for this game.
I am you and what I see is me.

Eh, considering that this game is "group optional" and is touted as such contradicts your second sentence. Also, the groups I've played in hasn't exactly changed the dynamics that make the game feel "grindy." It changes the pace but the grind is still there. It helps somewhat but it still gnaws at me.

Feeling burned out?

Stop playing so much then.
