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 get 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!
