Yes reviews are subjective, but it's a fact that Old Republic has better graphics, a better story, better gameplay, and better replayabilty than many games. If you think Old Republic is among the worst games ever, or even among the worst MMO's ever, you should NEVER be allowed to review a game again. People seem to not quite grasp the idea that 0 to 2 is for terrible terrible TERRIBLE games. Frankly put, anyone who rates this game below a 3 should be kicked off of this site.

This is a game you are either going to love or hate. If you're tired of WoW's world and want a change of scenery but fairly familiar gameplay, consider giving this a try. In all honesty this game is no better or worse than WoW. The storytelling and dialogue system is an interesting alternative to your typical MMO questing, but too often the quests themselves amount to the kill X of Y we've come to expect.

The real test will be if BW can continue to dole out content that keeps the end game going for PVE players (same with any other MMO, I don't PVP so I don't know what the state of that is). Needs better character creation/options, fully fleshed out space combat/quests, and no queues. Companions are great, group dialog is cool (need more of it), solo story is great. If you liked WoW but want something a little different with heavy emphasis on story this game is it. but really?!! Of the absolute crap that is out there you guys rate this game less than average (a 5)?!?! I think this game will change MMOs much like WoW did.
