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.
What OP says is 100% factual.
<-- The **** is this?

Looks like it's a tool used by my companions to harvest sugar cane with.

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.
This exactly. Outside the Questing path its pretty baron. and once you have done 1 imperial to 50 and 1 republic to 50 doing it again is roughly 85-90% identical. Less so if you choose to play as a different alignment.

Also Bioware needs to redress most of the Flashpoints to make the more like the first two. After those the rest are very bland in comparason.

SWTOR is by no means a bad MMO. I have no doubt it will get better but there are some serious flaws in content that do make lack of content a valid point for many people.

Just my opinion.

I am happy they are consistently adding content but for an MMO that has been out 4 months I am happy with how much content there is.

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
Yep this is exactly what I meant when I said "now there is nothing". Just to be clear I'm not defending bioware at all. They really screwed up.

They said they are doing monthly patch updates (for 1.3, 1.4, and 1.5 I am guessing) so maybe it will be in 1.3

I thoroughly enjoyed my first toon as well, but you may find the repetitive nature of alts not quite so exciting as you imagine.
My epiphany about End Game in SWTOR!

btw... having 4 classes on each faction =/= 8 classes

they aren't completely the same

but hey look at this! my commando has an ability to barrage an area with rockets from his gun!

oh... looks like bh can do the same...

it is 4 classes. the other 4 are duplicates with new looks to their abilities.

my 2 valuable cents

You can easily do two characters and not repeat anything.

I have two coins that make thirty cents. One is not a nickel.
You can choose 1 character per faction and repeat zilch.
