No.

1) Bioware seems to eliminate competition/work for reward.
2) PvE is too easy, so is PVP since gear will be handed out.
3) Apparently Bioware only cares about casual players.
4) Small (easy fixable) bugs are not getting worked out.
5) Raiding comes with a lot of bugs... fix it already.
6) No obvious place to duel(everyone is at fleet) - duels provides a lot of practise
7) I am very tired of smashing my space button in HM's i've done 30 times. (add a skip cut scene, that everyone in group must agree to or w/e)
8) Poor to pathetic communication with community from Biowares side.
9) Apparently Bioware only cares about casual players.
10) Apparently Bioware only cares about casual players.
11) Apparently Bioware only cares about casual players.
12) Apparently Bioware only cares about casual players.

Sorry for the last troll, but seriously..

I would because it is created by Bioware who wants to put RPG back into MMORPGs again.

There was a promise that I don't think they kept, and that is non-linear questing. But I guess it is too difficult because the more branches you have, the more you have to code.

If yes, list 3 reasons why.
If no, list 3 reasons why.

Constructive and civilized responses only please.
To be honest, that's an unanswerable question. It would depend on whether or not the story/lore/universe was one that I found intriguing or interesting.

Yea, it's a nice one trick pony, but with alts all the same side quests are too painfully boring to balance against the only new thing you will see, which is the alts main class quest.

Every route, every path you take will more than likely be the exact same, you could probably trace your footsteps.

"Linear glorified hallways" are what the planets in SWTOR are.

1.2 makes valor rank worthless pretty much. The new War Hero gear is better than BM, and can be worn by fresh 50's

No

I can't really give 3 reasons I've been in beta sense July I gave Bioware itself so many reasons not to release this yet, I pretty much detailed quests game mechanics that are in here still that just murders a real opportunity for something to remember and would have made ones quest special.

But I was flooded by something else call it biodrones haters who knows I didn't pick a side I just wanted to give my 2cents to see something good.

I have come to the conclusion that the game was simply released too early. Rather than answer the question I am going to give the game another shot at a later date and see it with fresh eyes. It has been brought to light recently that many projects concerning the game were axed to meet the launch window. I am done hating on this game because it has become clear what it really needs is time.

absolutely! the whole star wars premise wasn't what sold me on it... what got me was the questing, voice acting, pvp, grouping, and most importantly, sci fi! lightsabers were just an added benefit
