[url=#user_comment_100534]@Khira[/url] For a game that asks a subscription fee of me and is fundamentally about multiplayer, I'm going to need more than an enthralling story. Even it's most ardent supporters will readily admit the gameplay is pretty much just WoW. I don't see what the player gained from TOR as opposed to KOTOR 3

The solo experience is indeed pretty great. It'd be nice if it were a little easier to do group content though.

Your only real option is spamming general chat, as the "LFG comment" you can set for yourself is useless, as it isn't searchable on the /who window (the tooltip claims it is though).

Enthralling story, great for single players and playing together alike... Repeatable heroics quests daily for those who like the more social aspect... I think they did well. But yeah, the initial 1-10 is very single player, but very enthralling. Can't wait until they add armour for neutrals, though.

Hah, this comic is actually kind of my problem with TOR. All of what's listed as the games strengths make me ask "Okay so what made an MMORPG seem like the genre that would best make use of this?"

[url=#user_comment_100456]@Niggerdicks[/url]: However, I enjoy the game and so I overlook it. It's an MMO, these kind of things can be updated.

[url=#user_comment_100456]@Niggerdicks[/url]: Maybe have some items where you need 4000 total Side points but you can remain neutral or close to it. And some of the choices are like "Dark Side: Kill this kitten. Light Side: Kick the kitten". I'm still being a jerk by kicking the kitten, but I get Light Side points.

@Nigerdicks: I do agree with you that the neutral players are boned. My Imperial Agent was pretty neutral until I realized that having 600 Dark and 550 Light wasn't helping me get good gear. Now I've made him into kind of a jerk.

AND HERE COMES MY PREDICTION SPEEDING IN AT LIGHTSPEED. It's not a troll you gullible fucks, you HAVE to choose to be supremely over the top good or bad because gear depends on it. Neutral or morally gray characters get boned. But hey, enjoy your queue times and missing cd keys and discs.

I'd honestly buy a singleplayer version (with no monthly fee), loved the quests and story during the beta. Just kept chat set to npc and other players were some shapes in the distance.

My suggestion to you and anyone else playing swtor...
Play with a friend, do the quests together, accepting and turning in the quests. Play as different classes.

Make sure to troll each other.
Light Side Jedi + Flexible Smuggler = Hilarious
Its the journey that counts, do it with a friend.

Yeah, except my single player BioWare games aren't populated by Darth 'Bater and Hands Solo.

Honestly, when I get rolling on my quests I find it disturbingly easy to tune out the chat window in pursuit of more story. Of course, I'm still leveling, so it might be completely different at end game.

The genre "Massively Singleplayer" actually exists. It was...

Anyone knows a MMO where i can do that? :P

I would love to get a MMO that you can do every single thing alone in the game without the "help" of others... And if you want to team up its up to you, as long its not necessary to do so in order to get the best gear (or whatever). in MMO's i only like to see other players for PVP, not PVE...

[url=#user_comment_100395]@Niggerdicks[/url]: What, so whenever a choice comes up someone walks into your room and holds a shotgun to your head shouting, "Choose this option bitch!" Funny, I never noticed that. The whole point of choice is having to CHOOSE, moron. Take your flawed logic back and re-write it.

[url=#user_comment_100367]@kriss1989[/url] The fact that you're getting so upset over it means there's foundation there. You know damn well as I do the stereotypes, and that's all I mentioned- stereotypes. But yes the moral choice system is retarded, especially because it's not a moral choice. It's a moral forcing system.

I have Origin and Steam running at the same time on my pc, and after the last few weeks of comics I'm picturing the two characters in a constant catfight behind my desktop.

[url=#user_comment_100339]@Niggerdicks[/url] - please leave us bronies out of it. Why is a group about love and tolerance of others often discriminated against or used as a bad example? Can we focus on the fact that Bioware has made a moral choice system MMORPG? It's a little mind blowing to me that their even is a MC system.

It does remove the grind commonly found in most MMO. I mean you can get to max level with just the full quest line.

I'm in an active guild of moderate size (usually 10-25 members on at any given non obscene time) so I don't really get that feeling from it, but it does suck when there's 100 people on the planet according to the counter at the top and it still takes 30+ minutes to get a full group for a heroic.

Respectfully, i must disagree with the statement made here.

This game is EXACTLY what you make of it. If you play alone, you're alone, and you get a good single player experience.

Or you can play with others, and get a good multiplayer experience. I've done both multiple times.

[url=#user_comment_100314]@Ninj77[/url] And they get to charge a monthly fee for it too! inb4 5 million hyped up fanboy faggots lie about that or try to justify it an any manner whilst they call me a hater or butthurt WoW/GW2 fanboy or something equally asinine. You assbags make the "brony" stereotype look good.

Well it stills play pretty awesome, considering fact that you do pretty well alone (beside hero/flashpoint ) and when you do make party (for those hero/flashpoint 90% of time ) it plays even better. Love it

Mostly "single player", right? You know, maybe bioware finally created the perfect MMORPG for all the masses of casual players. Not a bad move, indeed,
