I have the same problem here. But your right is that a bad thing :P

I haven't even played this game yet, and not really sure if I want to.
What is so good about this game, seriously?

yahooadam · 21st Jun 2006, 22:34

i dont really know, ive found it very boring, maybe if you play with people (with teamspeak) it would be fun
i was only thinking of re-subscribing cos all my nub friends now play WoW, and i have nothing to do

Its surprisingly addictive, but i have no idea why. Its better when you have a friendly guild but the Pvp aspect is quite poor. Any how who needs the quests each city has a Maypole to dance around. bring on the moris dancers and where all set for a quite dull evening

This is really nice that they would do something like this, normally there is only the stuff for Easter and Christmas in games like this and the pagan holidays are left out hehe, I guess we have too many to get them all in hehehe.

Would be excellent if SOE would follow suit for SWG hehehe (not much chance I know but hey, I can dream)

Poorly timed though. It started with the patch and the whole frenzy around the new quests and junk associated with it. The seasonal things are a mildly entertaining distraction but I'm happy when they are over.

Not much, used to play it alot, the start of the game really draws you in, but in the later stages of the game it just turns into a boring grind fest, first for levels, then for items when you hit 60.

I had lots of good experiences in WoW, but I don't think that outweighed how boring the game could be, I'm glad I tried it, but I'm not gonna go back.

yahooadam · 24th Jun 2006, 14:55

thats my point exactly, i mean all you seem to do in WoW is grind
and unless you grind you cant do any fun stuff, and then all the fun stuff is at lvl 60 beacause no-one is low levels
Also i dont like 3rd person control if you understand, click a buton and its all done automatically - thats boring
Atleast in like oblivion you have to aim and stuff ..
