whatever the developer of TOR says. The videos indicate something else.

However many MMO gamers that also play Bioware games have commented that it looks(as in play) like WoW. They are often flamed for being anti Bioware. It's a shame. Veterans are being ignored by the ignorant.

In that case, I probably won't care for TOR. The only reason I wanted it was because of the story, but if they haven't advanced the gameplay beyond WoW, I'll just stick with GW2.

Well it's likely that my wife and me will try it out. We both love SW, I enjoy Bioware games she loves Bioware games. We both appreciate the story effort that Bioware put's into their work. So even though the combat seems 1:1 WoW i'm hoping that Combat isn't the center point of ToR. I supposed that's what's going to make it or break it for us. In WoW the entire game is about the combat. In Bioware games Combat is used as a climax element to their stories. Which means that Combat isn't the center even though it happens very often. If Bioware maintains that Story and Character are the center then I can enjoy the game. It's just that what Bioware has shown us is well combat and standard WoW features. So with that in mind just keep an open mind. The videos may be doing Bioware creative team a sever injustice. Let's just say you can't really convey the real experience of a bioware game by videos. So they show combat instead. So we will see.

Well, I'm all for story, but WoW-combat just really sucks. Time will tell I guess, but I think I'll have a hard time going back to WoW-like gameplay once I get used to GW2.
