The Things I usually look for in a game, do not exist in MMO's, but Bioware's record and they're insistence on adding said features makes me wanna play.
But I do on occasion have some fun PVPing and PVE, but I'd gladly never do PVP again, if we could get KotOR/TSL standard story in it.

More than anything else, I enjoy separating players from their money.

PvE, and by extension, story, environment, and overall quality thereof.

I love exploration, and voted as such. I love finding some remote mountain peak very few have been to, and seeing a great view of the world below. Or hell, even just a nice view of the sunset, or a pretty beach. I love exploring, so I'm hoping for big worlds in TOR.

I agree. MMO's usually lack these things and, as a result, are inferior to most decent single player games. MMO's are usually little more than a giant, expensive time sink.
The only good thing about MMO's has been hanging out with friends and making new friends. Should I be spending ten+ hours a week doing that... online? Probably not.
Like Adam said, we'll see if TOR can bring MMO's up to the quality of single player games. |

Come join us on the LOTRO darkside from your thousands of hours of WOW. You know you want to. We have cookies.
@ thread: I like a good story first and foremost. I don't want to see useless grinding. I do enjoy the camarderie of playing with a nice group of kin or guildmates. That's the one thing you can't get with an sp rpg--the social aspect and spending time in a multiplayer environment with people from all over the world.

Its good to have an MMO with a solid story you can interact with. Playing Runescape, I usually make up my own as I go along.
Yesterday is history. Tomorrow, a mystery. Today is a gift...that is why it is called the present.

From MST3K's spoof of "Hercules Unchained"--heard as Roman medic soldiers carry off an unconscious Greek Hercules on a 1950's Army green canvas stretcher: "Hi, we're IX-I-I. Did somebody dial IX-I-I?"
