Well at least you have continued sandbox/SWG posts to fed your retorts. That should count for something.

I've played war games, fighters, and fps games to death. Yet this is the first game I got sick in tired of killing that it hurts.

This game lacks so much I go brain dead. I really wish I was trolling!

But I WANT to just chill in a cantina and roll play! Play some pazaak race with my own custom tweaked vehicle or even just explore empty space looking for lost space stations or ships heck even escort some stranded ones back home!

All we are saying is: More of a *balance* between the currently dominated 'themepark' style and the more classic long-term oriented 'living sandbox' style.

Just more of a balance. That's all.

Is that so difficult to comprehend, Mr. YAAAWWWWWNNNNN?

But access to that content was like a content update for those who had never got to experence it. Get it?

It is not just the lack of access to end game content, but a combination of that and other factors which have led me to cancel my sub.

And by the way I am not expecting BioWare to give me what I want and therefore I am not expecting to ever return. But who knows what the future will bring?
Trust is something which is earned.

Just give it time and we'll get more nuanced content. We needed the barebones themepark structure to have something to go by. Now they can add more stuff to it.

2-3 expansions out and this game will probably be pretty robust and content heavy.

I agree with that It will probably be more sandboxy type

SWTOR will only survive if they go Free To Play.
They can charge real money for xp bonuses for alts, for all the bells & whistles, and still be profitable
and people will play.
THe reality is, they are bleeding subscriptions so fast they're about to DIE.
It's sad, I loved this game when it first came out.
Reality is, they are losing subscriptions rapidly
and, Guild Wars 2 is coming out in less than 50 days --- Warcraft already lost 400,000 subscribers
due to that, and if SWTOR loses another 100,000 to that --- and they will --- then it's adios, folks.

It's too bad - this game could have been great; but bioware's greed really messed them over, adn they put
in obvious gimmicks to try to get people to keep paying every month instead of improving game quality,
and the result? People (not all) are not stupid - they see blatant money-grubbing mechanics (ie, you can't change advanced classes, you MUST reroll a whole new character and relevel all over again) then they jump ship. Like me.

2-3 expansions out? HOw are they going to do that? If they don't go free to play by year's end,
if not before, they are going to be OUT OF BUSINESS.

the desperate push to consolidate people on 4 servers is another evidence; they are DESPERATE.
They messed up big tim efrom the get go and now with Guild Wars 2 and others coming out, they're bleeding
subscriptions FAST (even WOW lost 400,000 subscribers in 1 month due to GW 2 pre-orders!)

According to whom? You're completely speculating as to the health of this game and/or subscription expectations. EQ2 never had more than maybe 500k subs at its peak and it's still a sub-based MMO that is still generating content 7-8 years later.

MMOs don't have to have 10 million subs to be successful and until proven otherwise I'm under the assumption we're at 1-1.3 million, which is still pretty damn good.
