If you yourself are the common factor in your lack of enjoying mmo's, then it's not the mmo's that need adjustment.

What exactly, is your definition of "quality mmo"? Can you answer this question while using ONLY specific examples, and NO generic terms (ie, "endgame content" is very generic.)

The problem for me isn't even the 'end game'. It is that there is little to nothing to do outside of the narrow questing path. That and the class questing only accounts for a minimal portion of leveling so you're stuck repeating the majority of content in order to enjoy the stories.

Why isn't there anything to explore or discover.. planetside or in space. Why can't I sit at a lake and fish just for the heck of it. Almost all of the "zone" areas on the planets are heavily restricted with regards to travel paths which prevents much of any exploring. And those that are more open (Hoth and some parts of Tatooine) don't have anything interesting to come across when exploring. About the only side thing to do is hunting for datacrons. If nothing else, I expected cantinas to be entertaining but they all feel pretty lifeless.

If you play this game and story isn't a major factor for you then this MMO isn't intended for you. But for the rest of us story matters and there are 8 different ones to experience and they are not short either. So unless you have played through all 8 stories then a lack of content really isn't a valid complaint. I am currently playing through the Sith Inquisitor storyline and when I reach level 50 I will be more than happy to play through as a Jedi on different planets with a different story.
Thanks i realize that that is why i unsubbed i dont want 8 single player games with the same areas . i want an MMO

This would be sort of true if the class quests and storyline offered any sort of replaybility. You still spend 95% of your time doing the same quests you did the first time. And subsequently space baring through them. I tried caring about the consular story line after leveling my JS but holy **** I just could not. Tbh they aren't all that engaging in the first place. I thought some of the planet storylines were more interesting.

Anyway, regardless of what you think a AAA mmo is not going to survive with an anemic endgame. A very small percentage of people actually enjoy rolling alts and consider it a substitute for an endgame. A simple fact of the matter. Ranked warzones gave pvp'ers something competitive to do. Now there's nothing. The pve'ers get their shiny new operation but if EV and KP are any indication of difficulty, nightmare mode will be on farm within a month.

Wouldn't you have to do 98% of the sames quests 8 times then?

and considering those ranked warzones didnt make it in 1.2

and considering biowares already bad track record for the pvp in this game(ilum anyone?)i doubt this game will have much of a pvp playerbase once upcoming mmos come out

remember,some companys can do pvp right the first time.not screw it up,admit they did.and then spend time fixing it while there pvp playerbase is off playing other mmorpgs and most probably wont come back

You need to learn how to put boundaries over yourselves and play at reasonable amounts of time!
I like to compare it with electricity - you need to keep the power up for just the right amount so that the resistor won't burn. If you're playing for 5 hours per day and became bored with it - well buddy that means you BURNED YOUR RESISTOR (your 'fun').
I love these generalizations. SO accurate to real life lol.

News flash fella, I am a grown man who works 44 hours a week, has three kids and a wife. I am lucky to play 5 hours a week let a lone a day. And guess what? I think the "content" in this game is severely lacking. Rolling alts is NOT an acceptable substitution for "end game". Why play a MMO if all you are doing is playing for the solo story lines? Thats what single player RPGs are for. MMOs are there for continual progression and depth of play.

I disagree OP, since my first time through I made sure to do every quest, fp, space mission, bonus mission etc, now ya all the stories are unique but really I have no interest in doing the filler quests or planets missions the second time which you have to do to be appropriate lvl to complete your class quests. My second toon through I pvp'd alot to try to avoid duplicating things and I still needed filler quests.

And really, now instead of running through the door on the left, I simply go though the door on the right.
