Heres my 2 cents: Not that anybody cares I figured Id throw it out there.

Length of Game Content is mainly what Im talking about here. I agree and disagree on this part of the argument. I agree that the game is a bit short compared to other MMO's. I mean its been what 2-3 months something like that and I already have 2 50's (and no I did not grind to get there. I did take my time)

So yes I could see why people are saying this game is to short. But also in the same sense you dont want it to where it takes hours and hours on top of hours to get to the end game or when you get there you dont want it to take FOREVER to get some nice gear like some MMO's cough *WoW* cough. Because that will get boring really really fast! At least it did for me I personally just gave up.

So I think they should extend it some more but not a whole lot. Also the thing I hate the most with Most if not ALL MMO's is Fresh 50. Meaning When you first become 50 its hard and sometimes annoying to get decently geared so you can do in this case Hardmodes and Operations. Who wants to go do the same quests over and over and over every single day to get daily commedations and whatever else. Or PVP your but off Champion Bags. What happens if you HATE PVP or just not good at it.

When I was a fresh 50 every group I got into for Hardmodes I got kicked out because "I wasnt geared enough" Thats just retarded. So what did I do I went and grinded in PVP to get Centurion and Champion Gear. I dont hate PVP but I dont like it either. So with that said They need to give better options for Fresh 50's to get geared for Hardmodes or Operations OR Make it a little easier on some of the Hardmodes for Fresh 50's to get geared for. Liek Black Talon, Hammer Station, Athiss, and Mandalorian Raiders.

To sum up my thoughts. I disagree with you, on pretty much every point. Not going to get into it, but merely say: "Some people will never be happy with anything."

If you don't enjoy the game, feel you didn't get your money's worth, etc... move along. There are other games out there...

They dont deserve any recognition whatsoever. If you devote your life to a game the only recognition you should deserve its from the nearest psychiatric hospital because you need serious help.

Same could be said about any hobby.

The classic armchair dev thread that spouts off without knowing anything about real development, asset allocation, time constraints and lots of other things that make the business world go 'round.

I like the game as it is minus the lame *** loading screens. This thread however is terrible.

There is little to nothing in her post that faces the limitations you describe.

Further, explain how several other MMOs addressed several of the OP's concerns, at launch and at a much lower development cost than SWTOR?

And what's with the "armchair" stuff? Since when of fans of, well, anything not allowed to comment on it?

In order to posit a well articulated, defensible opinion, you've got to be a paid profressional now? When did that happen?

Um nope.


He/She is definitely "armchair" developing. Creating scenarios, posting their false perception of the game, telling us what should have been done.

Its all blah blah blah blah without true constructive criticism.

They went as far as creating ASCII GRAPHS that aren't even true or relevant.

Based on those graphs a character with 0 time spent is better than someone who plays the game a lot.

We know thats false. The OP was nothing more than whining and complaining. JUst like any other game forum. Just a bunch of crap about how the person thought the game should have beern structured more to them.

Yay more whining... Ok for all you dense people out there



IF YOU DO NOT LIKE A GAME DO NOT PLAY IT. See folks its not really THAT hard. Some of you make it look like Mission Impossible or something.
