Routinely conduct in SWTOR


Why is always the same pattern repeated in a MMO where I PVP? Although there are 100's of different things to do, it is always easier to just jump into a Warzone and play than trying to do something different and create a group for quests, flashpoints etc.
Sometimes I believe that I would simply have more fun if I just focused more on PVE and saved PVP to games that focus solely on it... like Daoc, Warhammer and Guild Wars 2.

Do not misunderstand me, I like PVP in SWTOR and have fun playing it, but it tends to wear me out a lot faster these days, same also happened in Rift and WOW. Unfortunately routinely conduct coming from this prevents
me from doing something else and it's hard to be creative when you are tired and have about 30 minutes left before going to bed.
That's why I was so surprised after testing Lotro a year ago. I unexpectedly fell in love with it even if it was a PVE game. It had great community, roleplaying and sandboxing.

Back to SWTOR! When reading the patch notes for 1.2, I say to myself: "Okay, So where is all this new stuff?" Well, everything is there, I just have to stop taking the easy route and try new things, even if the Story mode flashpoint does not give me better gear, it will at least give me a great experience. Just look at the Rakghoul flashpoint, I had a blast playing Kaon Under Siege. Now I just need to g
et the thumb out of my ass and do the next one. 

Beside from all this, I’m guessing I just wanted a discussion, my Agent is now level 10 and I have chose Sniper as advanced class. I also ran a little PVP yesterday with my Trooper and had some nice games. I’m currently playing as Assault again after being Tactics for a while. Both build are real fun!





I must also add that I’m very disappointed when it seems that Elder Scrolls Online will be another standard MMO. I was really hoping for Skyrims graphics in a sandbox environment... But I’ll guess we have to see how it will evolve.

So anyone else feeling they need to throw things around in order not to get caught up in the same routine? Or maybe you can share some tips that prevents this? Share your thoughts!
