STOP the excuse making!

I like strawberry ice cream ! If you don't like strawberry Ice cream than you have no taste!

How is rolling an alt on the same faction great? You'll be doing the same stuff you did previously 90% of the time in the same order with very little variation in dialogue. The only difference are the class quests you have per zone, which are five or six and most of them are fillers until you're at the plot of the zone.

As for the comparisons. People do that because this game lacks in certain areas compared to what is on the market. If you want to compete you don't release a product that offers less for the same money. This game really lacks a lot for a 2011 game with such a huge budget.

How do you possibly manage to the do the same exact quest 8 times and listen to the same story and do the same planets 8 times in 6 weeks.

You like strawberry, but I like chocolate. Why do they force us to only have strawberry?

So what if this is a new game. I played both FFXI and LOTRO from launch, and both games kept me busy for a lot longer than a month after launch. No way on earth unless you murdered yourself playing would you have reached max level on FFXI in four weeks. So comparing this game to other games that may have launched in the past is very misleading.

The leveling up process on games released a decade ago wasn't near as quick as it is on this game, so there was less of a need to have an extensive endgame upon launch. I don't know why this simple concept is so hard for people to understand, and why this comparision SWTOR defenders typically make is so inaccurate.

Simple truth is this game simply moves too quick. Reaching level 50 can be done in the span of a month easily, even for casuals - and that reality puts far more pressure on this game to have an extensive endgame to keep players busy than did the games of the past.

Bottom line:

This is a great game for players who like to roll alts.

This is a boring game for players who don't.

It really is that simple.

So instead of making these stupid comparisons to games released a decade ago in a completely different era when players expected completely different things - let's move past that nonsense and all chip in on ways Bioware can make this game more fun after 50 so everyone isn't either bored or rolling an alt.

All of this excuse-making gets us NO WHERE.

I'm running 8 toons all up, i'd have more but that's the server limit. It's great for me. I take it you simply don't understand those of us who alt, we even do it in MMORPGs where the story is exactly the same.

You know you're the absolute 100% minority, right? Like.. an incredibly small portion of the 1mil subscribers play like you.
