You would think that RPG experts BioWare would make a decent MMO in the Star Wars universe, but with their recent release of Star Wars: The Old Republic they proved me very wrong. I can understand the game being somewhat buggy, but some of the bugs are just downright unacceptable. For instance, I ran into a bug where a quest will not progress unless I reset the quest. However, by doing this I had to redo 2 pretty long dungeons in order to get to the point that I was at.
Perhaps you think that maybe once you hit the level cap that maybe, just maybe the PVP would be better right? WRONG. Since you can't turn on combat logs in this game you have ABSOLUTELY NO FUCKING IDEA WTF IS GOING ON. Did I mention all of this happens while your PC is chugging along trying to churn out frame rates while you're trying to kill 5 other people whaling at you for 4-5k damage a pop? Well isn't that fun? Oh, and I totally forgot about bugs such as abilities not being cast but triggering a global cool down, stuns now working as intended, and map holes that force you to quit the PVP match. JOY.
The good thing is I finally canceled my subscription. In their defense, I have to say that the single player stories are actually quite good. In the end I think BioWare should really just stick to what they do best: single player RPGs.
