WOW really made me appreciate SWTOR

Exactly wrong

Wrong how? Or you just try to dismiss it with your own oppinion?

Exactly the fact supported "rebuttal" I'd expect from the wrong side of the issue.

I don't know what "happened in WoW", and not to be rude but I'm sick to death of hearing about WoW. WoW had amazingly bad graphics, and I didn't last a month. I went back to EQ1 for a good long while. I know that cross server LFG works wonderfully well in Rift and has only improved my gameplay experience there.

Lol...noob made a hunter..

Just my opinion.

As far as questing and character development, swtor is miles better than WOW.

I find the quests in WOW to be simplistic, short, and shallow. How many quests in WOW involve killing pigs or gathering pig poop? How many involve out houses. I just loved the one where I ate some beans by mistake and had to gather plants to make a laxitive and then go to the local out house to, lets say recover the beans. Almost all questing is kill x, gather y, or excort z but WOW gives little reason to do so other than to gain XP. The quests in WOW are a simple run out do something quickly and then run back to turn them in. No depth at all.

The quests in swtor take longer and are more engrossing because they are more involved, take some thought, and do have meaning within the story and your growth and progression. One quest that comes to mind is the alien / super weapon in the Czerka (sp?) secret facility on Tatooine. It was the end of a chain of quests that grew in story as you went on. It was involved and complex and with multiple groups of mobs and roving patrols took some care otherwise you could be easily killed (not a problem in WOW quests).

If anyone has seen some of my comments, they know that I have taken BW to task with regard to a lot of things that they have done wrong or with problems in the game. To me the questing as questing goes is something that BW has aced. There is simply no comparison between the two games in that aspect. I have no doubt that they will add content for endgame and that flashpoints will get better to the level of the first one.

Nevermind..

Let's be honest who plays mmo's for questing...

I mean really come on now...

Enjoying TOR still for the time being. RP is keeping the game alive for me. Up until the begining of 2011, I was a WoW player, until Cataclysm pretty much killed my interest in the game.

Should TOR begin to prove as grating for me as WoW did, I will likely just give up MMO's for good. Too often now they get rushed, graphically overcharged, or in this case, are being ruined by a entitlement addicted community.

I'm talking community, not gameplay. Both are important aspects of an MMO and cross-server LFG seriously hurts one of them while helping the other(thats how I see it anyway, a lot of people agree on this and a lot do not). Sure, WoW's graphics are bad, look at how old it is, but compare the textures with the half-baked stuff you see in SWTOR(Hell, we cant even get the high res things god knows why)!

And yes, we're all tired of hearing about WoW, but what do you expect when most games copy, and so many players ask, for the features that came from that same exact game(dungeon finder comes to mind)?
