And help me out here, how is GW2 not better? Your trolling if you think otherwise, or your so ignorant you haven't even glanced at what it has to offer, take your blinders off. But its pretty funny your sig is a nice declaration you are ignorant. Surprising.

SWTOR
Very bad pvp.
Old gameplay.
Graphics are subpar.
Raids are pretty bad.
Races are horrible
End game is nowhere to be seen.
Excellent story
Grinding is excellent..
It's star wars.
Edit:
Class variety is linear
Overall "map" is smaller, not as interestiing and overall pretty bland even on maxed graphics.

GW2.
PVP is top notch.
WvW is top notch. (You don't know what this is being SWTOR is the first mmo you played, imagine 100v100 battles
Graphics are pretty amazing if you can handle it.
Gameplay is more realistic and more intense (Highest cooldown is a minute i think? Faster paced)
Races are more diversive.
End game is also up there, not as good as WoW though, but in time it'll get there.
Grinding is good.
Storys not awesome but its not bad either.
It's Everquest, WoW and like Ultima thrown together
edit:
Class variety is top notch (in fact its basically like skyrim, weapon in each hand dictate your playstyle)
Map is huge and not just a few "planetary instances" and its much more diverse and unique.

So your whole "SWTOR>GW2 LOLZ" is a trash argument, i await for you to say "it depends what you value, i value blowing money on a star wars skin LOLZ".
Ummm....as far as PvP goes, SWTOR was never intended to have immersive PvP. It is a PvE MMO with PvP minigames.

$15 a month is nothing. That is dinner at one of my favorite mexican restaurants--not including tip. So I cut down the number of times I go to that place a month. No big for me, makes me appreciate it all the more. And nobody wins in an MMO, unless it is for PvP. So any arguments about the PvE part are moot. You are not competing against anyone but yourself. So you don't have top end gear. On a whim, I rolled a Guardian and did the entire quest line with only the rewards I received without buying anything off the CM or GTN. And did not do Flashpoints. So the whole notion of Pay to Win in on a PvE game is foolish.

How was refuting my GW2 diagrams that i broke down for you going? That earlier proves you know very little about mmos and how they survive. But then again, i wouldn't expect much from a kid who enjoys cutting out F2P.

Paragraphs are your friend.
If you are so miserable with SWTOR, quit. Simple and easy. Go play GW2 and have fun. But those of us who enjoy the game will still be here. If it fails in a year, so be it. If not, I'll see you when you come back.

GW2 is not a science fiction MMO, nor is it a Star Wars MMO. For me, those are the two biggest strikes against it.

It could be superior in many ways, but I don't really dig the whole AD&D thing any longer.

You don't like SWTOR... fine. No worries. There are plenty of people that do and more every day.

And I have GW2 loaded on my computers, and play it from time to time.. so don't rush in and try to treat me like your newest chew toy. And while PvP was fun early on.. it's in a death spiral on GW2 now days IMO. And SWTOR was never designed to be a strong PvP MMO. Sorry if that causes your shorts to bunch up... but there are other MMOs for PvP...... SWTOR is not one of them.

Read Scummy Boo Boo's profile. He's just a troll...and not a very good one. Easier just to pop her on your ignore list.

You are not on a holy crusade here... or at least you shouldn't be.

Only quoting this one line for exemplary of your "breaking it down very neat...

"Raids are pretty bad."... that line somehow reminds me of the Hitchhikers Guide to the galaxy... Ford Prefects multiple page review about Earth... which then got summarized to "mostly harmless".

But of course your point cannot be disproved. "Pretty bad" was so neatly broken down, that I cannot refute your perfect logic.

The question remains though... Why do you see the need to be on a missionary crusade in SWTORs forums, when you could have a jolly talk with your fellow GW2-players on their forums about how superior the game is and how happy you all can be, that you can play it for free?
