SWTOR Is Better Than You Think

[@SHADOWWOLF3546]

I played enough swtor to get legendary player... i have never done a raid or any multiplay content. i play it like a single player game and come back and replay my favorite classes from time to time. i like it enough to pay the monthly subscription even if i don't touch it for a month or 2. it really is that amazing Kotor/mass effect type story telling and lets you play how you want. the story like you said is just so good.

[@TB-smiles]

I feel you, also when you come back you always lay on some stacked cartel coins :3

[@SHADOWWOLF3546]

[@Talyrion]

I do have fond memories of SWTOR - even if I cursed it for getting that game instead of KotOR 3. It tried so hard to offer a real solo campaign to players, making starting over with a new class really appealing.

[@GamingForImmersion]

There's something about it that makes me an altoholic.

[@OrcPower]

There are so many good things about this game. I really love all the voice actors for even the "smallest things". And some of these story quests are so good. My favorite is the Imperial Agent, I think, THINK. that there is like 3 or 4 different endings (?) for that one And I really like the Jedi Knight story. Unfortulantely I got the ending spoiled for me, but yeah that was a really good story.

I started playing swtor in January of 2023 and fell in love with it. Took me over a year and a few breaks but I got to legendary status and that felt great. It’s unfortunate that the current endgame story content isn’t all that, but I still come back every so often to see what’s up. Like at the beginning of this month my friend suddenly got hooked on the game and it’s been a blast playing through it all with him, so much so that we’ve already sank in like 70 hours in the past 2 weeks 😂. Still haven’t tried any raids or pvp though, maybe sometime in the future.

still an amazing Game Played SWtoR around 10 years ago for the First time and i‘m Back since 15 weeks So many things to do and Fall in love again

[@laszloszocs7477]

i have played it since launch even thoug there are periods of some odd years i dont touch it but always love to come back and have some fun but some bugs are really frustrating me like i cant subscribe as of recent lol but all in all its been a staple in my gaming since we first bought it with my buddy in 2009 :D

[@mikeg5039]

I played years ago and had fun but now im trying to get it to load and it gets stuck on the main loading screen after logging in. Tried every fix i could find. Nothing works :(

[@mbrstrmn]

SWTOR is great! Especially for new players. The class stories are good and there's a lot to do. Endgame gets kinda stale and gearing is kinda wack but only for veteran players.

[@REOFIRE36]

Mannn I love swtor. The class stories are great, the planet stories are awesome, the cutscenes & dialogue are FUN. The only thing that isn't fun, is the game itself. Its too easy, the basic 1-50 is simply WAY TO EASY. I wish swtor had its own "classic" where you didn't automatically get a healbot at lvl 10, Classic WoW for instance, the 1-60 is the experience, and its fun and the journey along the way is great fun. (mainly because its actually challenging). Love swtor, and I'd love to see it come to my console (xbox) with controller support, there would be soooo many people playing if they didn't need a PC;.

[@kimrasmussen7188]

class stories are top notch entertainment. everything after corellia is optional.

[@ultragamer4990]

been playing this game ses day one still love it

[@Blackdawn80]

The game still has classic The Old Republic stories and has been kept immune to Kathleen Kennedy's vision of Star Wars

[@Barrobroadcastmaster]

It could've been even better but as with many things in Star Wars, it's a story of could have been better.

[@kyzit8458]

By saying the original movies, you mean 4-6 films or 1-6? Just curious. Also if you want there is a high republic era made by disney told primarily through books and comics which is really high quality. It isnt a replacement to the old republic just to be clear. It is from 500BBY to 100BBY and there are 3 phases in the books each in a little different place on the timeline If you'd like to check it out start with "The light of the jedi book", but if it wasnt that good for you(I had the same problem) then try "Into the dark". The first book is not in my favorite style because it focuses on a lot of characters rather than a few like the second book. If you prefer the EU it can also rather seamlessly fit there which is nice.

[@GamingForImmersion]

Thanks, I'll check the books out. By original movies, I mean the original trilogy. 4-6. Star Wars, which is what I call the original movie instead of A New Hope, is my favorite movie of all time. I thought the prequels had some interesting ideas but were pretty disappointing in a number of ways. The last movie I saw in the universe was The Force Awakens, which soured me on ever watching another.

[@kyzit8458]

@@GamingForImmersion ok, thanks for the answer. Have fun with the books. You can find a reading order online if you want. Also just so you know there is a little representation and stuff but there isnt that much and the story doesnt suffer from it. Also the high republic is the idealistic height of the republic and the jedi but that doesnt mean there arent any enemies. Ok, have fun with reading.

[@Bon-Gi]

My issue with SWTOR is the melee combat kind of sucks. the ranged classes feel much better to play.

[@5point0h67]

Removed ranking and PvP gear doesn’t matter…. This is why I don’t play

[@ElusiveClit]

Developers Lets use Heroengine for an MMO XD XD XD

[@PWReviews]

Been playing since launch. Ive had my time away from the game too. Its still fun the way it is today but it lost me a bit when they buffed the xp for main missions and it basically made side quests pointless. All that voiced content and stories lost. You can still do them but you'll be over levelled and their worth is lost sadly. Even flashpoints level you too much. Makes all open world content easy until the end game. I just wish the mmo aspect of it came back. It's just sad that alot of the nice cosmetics are in the store and not somewhere out there in the game to find by doing a flashpoint or raid or open world content. Obviously the team have to make money but its not much fun just grabbing something off the store with your own money.

[@GamingForImmersion]

I agree with everything you said here.

[@ShaikuraJarfaru]

It's a great game. But if you need the opinion of others, then it's not for you.

[@TheBeelzboss]

I never gave it a chance because I was pissed off that it was an MMO and not a KOTOR 3 single player...

[@TheStarWarden]

Can be played single player. I rarely interact with other players unless I'm using the GTN.

[@AceOfVegas]

Honestly, play the Jedi Knight story line. That one is *functionally* KOTOR III. Minor spoilers. Keep going You even get to have a slobberknocker with Revan for good measure.

[@TheStarWarden]

@@AceOfVegas this is true, though the Sith Warrior and Imperial Agent have the best vanilla storylines. All are fun though.

[@AceOfVegas]

@@TheStarWarden agreed. Bounty Hunter was my personal favorite

[@TheBeelzboss]

@@TheStarWarden I wish I would have been told this in the promotional stuff because I would have played it years ago lol

[@jolive77]

no, this game is why we lost star wars galaxies and never got kotor 3. this game was an attempt to be two things at the same time and fell short at both.

[@Allegedly_Angel]

Ok, but like have you seen the literal amount of fetch quests this game has and the stupid distance you have to travel for every single one

[@khatack]

No, it really is not.

[@Blackdawn80]

Maybe WoW is your play style, but this game is really designed for Star Wars fans not casual MMO players

[@khatack]

@@Blackdawn80 Dude, SWtOR is literally a lousy WoW clone with a SW paint job.

[@Blackdawn80]

​@ You know why WoW became so popular? Because it's generic and fits everyone's taste. Of course all MMO's follow a similar pattern and the same can be said about any of them. Even wow is a clone of EverQuest or even UO....

[@khatack]

@@Blackdawn80 Not even close. WoW became so popular because it did its own thing; it may have borrowed concepts from other games but it actually did improve upon them. WoW became so popular because it was so GOOD, and SWtOR lost 90% of its subscribers in two months after it launched because it was NOT. Also remember that this was during a time when WoW was at an absolutely abysmal low point.

[@kyzit8458]

​@@khatackif that was the case then the game would have been shut down or at the very least wouldnt get any expansions which it did.
