Would you trade voice over for more game options?

I bought Star Wars The Old Republic, not Bioware Online.

The voice acting is pretty cool, I drop some of it for player housing though. I guess the voice acting is why swtor stands out from all the rest - itd be like taking away one of its legs lol.

since playing this game I've tried a few other MMOs without VO and just couldn't do it... the first time I saw a 3 paragraph long box of tiny text pop up which I knew was just going to boil down to something like "kill 10 boars" I lost interest
"bibo ergo sum" ( I drink, therefore I am)

Teamwork is essential; it gives the enemy other people to shoot at.

Yes.

The VO is very nice, but it doesn't outweight all the missing functions, not by a long shot.

Escpecially because all the non-class quests are repated on each class, so you only really listen to them once...

No, I love the voice-overs. It makes this game so much more enjoyable. The story and voice-overs is what draws me into this game. It is the first MMO that I actually enjoy. Every other MMO that I have tried, I have just found extremely boring and have no desire to continue playing. Although, I'm not against more game options. Just not at the cost of the voice-overs.

No. The voice acting is the only thing they really got right in this game, tbh. It's all very good, from some of the best voice-over actors in the industry, and gives the game a nice touch.

No. I never read the old text boxes in other games. Now I like to hear what they say. I hate being asked to skip over the story in FP's. I would like to have housing and a better space game, but maybe those will come. Can anyone tell me why there are certain dialog options, but they are not exactly what my char ends up actually saying? Sometimes they don't seem to match up well.

I have to say that this question is too forced, I know that most of my friends that play this game compare it to WoW that has been out for (I don't know but I'd think) 4 years, and it takes time for all developers to make their games better, I'm gonna be patient, cuz I love what Bioware have done with the Star Wars universe, and I trusr that they will make the game better over the months/years. But to answer the question, NO, no I would not take away the voice overs

Absolutely not. I would just play another game with all those features if I cared about them that much.
