OP actually has a good point. I currently have keybinds on all 48 buttons using my G13 & M.M.O. 7. TBH it takes away from the fun factor having to memorize that many buttons for 8 different characters.

Sage & Shadow I can play blindfolded almost but the other 6 alts require me to look at the sheet music.

Macros would have made it easier but BW seems against them.

If you try doing something other than just standing there and taking it in the pve portion of things, you could easily memorize the abilities and what they're bound to. I have no issues keeping track between my various characters and different builds. It becomes muscle memory very quickly if you actually spend any amount of time playing the characters.

Thats what I think too. Thats a fact that all classes have less then 30 ability. If you dont troll yourself you bind relics/adrenal/medpack mount and buffs to the same buttons for all of your characters.
From the <30 class specific abilities i always bind the same king of moves to the same button like trinket, knockbacks, interrupt, resource free abilities, defensive cooldowns, ofensive coldowwns, resource gains, stuns, mezz, slow so you only have to memorize some buttons what is realy class specific.

I just wanted to add that this is one of the main issues why the game now has such a low population. Guild wars 2 does it right. Different abilities for different weapons and it feels good. God what I would give for GW2 controls/abilities in swtor. I wish I could skin gw2 with this game tbh.

I like the plethora of abilities but wish their was some sort of system to where he could only use 10 (or 15 or whatever) "active abilities".

Ironic that so many of those who are saying things like "I can't wait for GW2, because it's all about skill" are the same people saying things like "this game has too many buttons its too hard!"

The OP, of course, didn't say this that I am aware of - I'm just saying. As another poster said, there is a skill in using all of the abilities at your disposal well, and I really don't think the game should be dumbed down for those who either can't or would prefer not to have to do this.
