    You are so wrong.  The more i read about SWTOR the less i'm interested.  It looks like the devs are trying to make a space version of WOW with this game.    It will be WOW with lighsabers and blasters.   Who wants to play WOW with blasters ?  Certainly not me.

    anyway, this game looks nothing like wow to me, but hey, that's just me :)

    LOL, you people never quit, do you? You keep hoping your little pet game (that you have nothing to do with, nor do you benefit from other than entertainment) will kill a game that you also have no reason to hate. No, this game won't kill WoW, and it has no reason to, anyway.

    ------------------------
    Everyone on this site:
    1: MMORPGs are DOOMED, and I have the answers to save them!
    2: THIS game's gonna kill WoW!
    3: I wish things would go back to the Golden Age of MMORPGs, which only existed in my mind...

     Just signed up for the cb , hope i get in it :P

     

    As far as TOR killing wow? I doubt it.  I know rift sure as hell won't kill wow, and I highly doubt that gw2 will kill it.

     

    If wow dies it will be because of how long the game has been going on for and ppl losing interest in it or a new generation of gamers who don't want to play it.

    It really wouldn't die either, it would just see a population decrease of fans getting bored with the genre or the game itself.

    Can't kill WoW when there is nothing to kill or no reason to kill it.

    unless the game's decided to cater to those 17 and under it wont kill wow. personally i hope none of these new mmo's do that. WoW can keep their kids and ill take the better game and enjoy it .

    As much as I want SWTOR to kill WoW, I doubt it will. It may be strong competition for WoW, but it won't be the death of WoW. I don't care either way because I will probably be a dedicated SWTOR player and I could never get into WoW, tried it once and did not care for it.

     You could never get into WoW but will be a dedicated swtor player? Interesting.

    When myself and the many gamers I know personally, pick up a box and sub to it, you will have been proven wrong. What's with this crap anyways? Gamers wont play SWTOR? You mad or something?

    hmm.. not sure where the 'this game won't be played by gamers' comes from, not exactly going to appeal to the WI knitting circle after all image

    having said that, it probably won't have the same kind of general appeal that WoW has, i see it being more like Eve online, a niche game, good at what it does, but within a limited interest range. Do agree though, all these 'x games will kill WoW' is just plain daft, its just not going to happen. Honestly think those kinds of posts are just trolls trying to stir up an argument to smear WoW with, I personally just don't see the WoW thing ever happening again... WoW will have to self destruct first.. besides, not many Fantasy gamers are really all that into sci fi ones..  image

    as much as I love space sci fi movies, I have no interest in a space based MMORPG.  It is my belief that most people greatly prefer either swords and sorcery or space and shun the other.  Because of this SWTOR will not kill WoW.

    er.. there is no space in SW:TOR... (a browser based tunnel shooter doesnt count!) so.. its more a comparison of swords and magic vs ..er .. laser swords and .. force powers.. no wait....... image

    bad  phrasology on my part. 

     

    Take 2.

     

    Fantasy RPG vs Sci fi RPG

    different terms same effect

    Only father time will kill WoW!!!

    A far as TORs spot in the market I think it will do really well. Between my friends and my brothers that play MMOs this will be the only game all of them are getting since WoW.  The only other game they all played before that was EQ. All of them played other MMOs in between but no one agreed on the same game. 

    Really this game bridges Sci-Fi and fantasy.  Its space with swords (light sabers) and magic (the Force). So I think it will appeal to a much larger group.

     

    lol just watched that video!!! gnomish laser that was good one thanks!

    I can feel your anger. This game is defenseless. Take your weapon. Strike this game down with all of your hatred, and your journey towards towards the Dark Side will be complete.

    Yup, SWTOR will not kill WoW neither will anygame released by any other company in the future. The culprit for that will be Blizzard through one way or another. Probably lack of interesting content, can't rely on resurrection a boss every expansion and dailys for the rest of its existence, or can it? Guess I should never underestimate a WoW player.

    I'm gonna say SWTOR has a chance at hitting those numbers. It's not crazy, it's quite possible. Unless people honestly believe the other 6 billion something people on this planet are nonexistent. But...I can't say you're wrong. niche? maybe. Next big MMO? It's possible.
