I just played a couple of hours of the beta and not only does it not feel anything like the original Kotor(gameplay), but the voice acting is terrible and the quests are just really dull. People who play WoW are gonna have such a deja vu feeling when they play this game. It's not going to score higher than an 8.

Indeed a bounty hunter. They fact there is no auto attack and you get a companion alone makes the gameplay alot different than WoW. The voice acting as well is far from bad. It's very good imo. This coming from someone who has been playing WoW since the 2004 beta.

Idk, I just don't like the voice acting. The gameplay is also kinda odd. I was hoping it would be similar to the original but it's not.

It's alot more active that Kotor. I liked it, even better once you get your companion. Like a class specific pet.

Maybe when you post a topic YOU should put down which game you're talking about correctly.

It'll keep smartasses like me from telling you, "IT AIN'T KOTOR!"

Presumably you mean SWTOR.

Anyway, no it's not going to unseat WoW. Anyone who thinks it will is far too optimistic.

It may survive, but I see it becoming a moneysink for EA that will eventually go free-to-play just like pretty much every other MMO these days.

After seeing the butchery, and unspeakable crime, the heresy that was done to Revan is this game I HOPE KoTOR's fan don't play this game so they don't have to know the horror done to one of the best SW characters of the EU.

Just got done with a 7 hour session and had the time of my life. This game is going to do great as it is pure quality in my eyes. Got it preordered and ready to go. LOL @ you thinking an MMO is going to play like a single player RPG. By the way it is TOR, not freaking KOTOR. If you are going to make a thread about it, the least you could do is get the damn name right.

the new wow patch is going to make people stop playing WoW.

progression will stagnate, interest in playing the game will decrease after 4.3 imo, it'll only get worse at this point.

TOR is the future to be honest.

No reason it should have. It's easy to see it's the next step forward for the genre. I love WoW but it's time is coming to an end.

The graphics are on par with last-gen games. I'm very surprised that strong PC fanboys like miller can stand it at all.ActionRemix
I'm really getting sick of your BS and insults directed towad me. Cut the **** out, got it? That being said, gaphics are not everything, never said they were. It's a geat arestyle and isn't a blurry mess like every console game.

Sorry for that if you feel that way. It just makes no sense at all to me. You often post in a way where you seem to say that graphics make console games unenjoyable or even unplayable. Would you rather play a last-gen console game at 1600p 60fps than a current-gen console game at a resolution between SD and HD and 30fps?

I know I would. I'm replaying max panye 2 right now at it looks damn good super maxed out. Much better than the average console game imo.

My favorite part is when you do random dungeons and no one even says a word unless its to flame another player.

It's a Star Wars game with addictive content and a lot of marketing behind it. It'll be popular. It won't kill off WoW, but I don't think that was ever the plan - they just need to eat into enough of WoW's revenue to stay afloat. And that's pretty much assured for a while, regardless of the quality of the game.

Actually WoW is already dying, just bought cata a couple of days ago and there is barely anyone in deemholm,hyjai and vash'ir. There is barely anyone in stormwind, BGs take a long time to get to and even duegeons, mind you I am on Shattered halls which use to be extremely popular 6-8 months back. WoW is dying slowly. When Old republic comes out expect me to drop WoW completely. Blizz did alot of things wrong and its really to late to fix it. With Rift, terra online and now old republic..pretty sure Blizz will not recover from this one unless they unleash there new mmo..

Yes, as I said before thier subscriber numbers are falling but just so you know BGs at the lvl cap have an average queue time of under 1 minute. Dungeons queues at the lvl are about 10-15 mins for DPS for the original Cataclysm Heroics or 20-25 mins for the Zandalari Heroics. DPS have the longest wait by far and the queue time for normal modes is probably a lot higher due to most players having no reason to do them. Shattered halls is a low population server which barley has 4 thousand players.

Hope it crashes and burns. At the same time, with the slow death of WoW, maybe the companies will finally see that MMORPGs aren't as popular with the casuals as they used to be, and we will finally get some REAL MMO games, without kiddielol instances and kiddielol battleground-only PvP and stupid factions. With open PvP and PvE, player-run economies and player-run politics, without focus on the lore, but with focus on guild warfare! Down with the casualised, dumbed down, carebear-fests that are MMOs nowadays!
