Now that it has been out for a bit.

PROS:

1. Story is fun and usual Bioware quality.
2. I'm happy with the GFX.
3. I'm happy with the sound.
4. I like the space combat for what it is.
5. I like the Warzone combat.
6. I am "mostly" pleased with class balance.

CON:

1. Open world PVP is a wreck. Imbalanced sides, boring objectives, bad FPS.
2. The UI customization can not come soon enough.
3. I have issues with keys that can not be rebinded or unbinded.
4. Not enough variety in armor types at high lvl. Lacks customization options.
5. 1.1 patch screwed up tracking of longer duration CDs.

---------------

In short they have a solid "base game". The question is can they roll-out the features the community is demanding in a timely basis while still squishing bugs.

I am subbed and will continue to be subbed. I will likely buy GW2 for better PVP, but that is not a subscription game so I can keep both.

I've put in roughly almost 200 hours into the game so far so I definitely got my money out of it so far.

If you are looking for a MMO with a very strong single player story focus AND you are interested in Star Wars, you will probably love the game.

What does that statement mean?
It means you can play from level 1 to 50 using one of the 8 character classes and get a totally unique story that is very well done, with excellent combat and nice zones.

You can play through a second time on the OPPOSING faction from the first and get another totally unique story, without doing any quests over again.

After that, you end up with cross over, where the main class story is good but you start doing the normal quests over and over again.


Now, if you are only going to play one character, you will run into issues after you hit the level cap because the PVP and the Instanced Raid/Group content is still 6-9 months away from being good OR having enough here to keep most people busy for more than a few weeks IMO.


Now for myself:
I hit level 50 the other day and I just completed the Jedi Knight story line today, so there is roughly 30-50 hours more play left for me until I gear up my character fully, buy all the skills, etc, etc, assuming I choose to max out my level 50 Jedi.

Played the beta, said "Screw this ****." And didn't buy it.
