Leave the trolls aside, WildStar has far superior combat, graphics and overall its more fun. SWTOR is considered a failed MMO for a reason. It's interesting game, yes but I wouldn't spent a dime in it. I only subscribed once to get the stronghold early and see what it was but that's about it.
I only see one troll here^. I assume you are labelling anyone who disagrees with your opinion a troll?
Wildstar's combat is amazing for dungeon's and raids. But I find it lacking for pvp. I don't really like wildstar pvp at all because of how the combat works. WoW's arena is more fun then wildstar's arena. However, because of the way combat works, the pve is by far superior in wildstar.

This is THE game I've been waiting for. Been disappointed with some recent MMOs over the past couple of years but now it finally seems like Wildstar can come take most of my time. You're gonna love the way it pulls you in level after level with so much to do, what with the crafting alone. It definitely reels you in with a good enough carrot that you cannot seem to stop following. GG

Booyah stopped playing D3 to get on here, didn't regret it.
Got nice content right off the bat, the guys who made look like they know what they're doing. Loving dat sci-fi-ish frontier feel to this game espceially the races.

I forgot how to PvP lolnub but the pve is great with fun quests and large Sci-fi world dungeons that require skill and is actualy fun to finish. NOT GRINDY that may be just me but well yeah it's not

+ wildstar story is epic to say the least, you just have to be able to read.

It's comical in nature, but boy does Wildstar take this MMO thing seriously. Seriously, it's probably the most well-done MMO I've seen in quite some time. Not to mention awesome VFX
i definitely agree with this, Wildstar is awesome so far, this game is gonna be huge since they treat the players right .. +1 to them btw anyone playing dominion side?
What a refreshing thread , as someone else pointed out , people being positive about swtor ? Has the summer sun got to everyone ? Plus only one negative person who contradicted him/herself. Well i haven't played WS so I can't really comment. I can say I didn't get it and with my MMO style being Sci-fi that probably tells you what I thought of WS sci-fi. Also the servers being separate from different regions didn't help at all. So my vote would be to try SWTOR , the 1 class from each faction recommendation seems like a good start too , I agree. Just don't get into any must make 16 characters , lol like me took ages to finish them all.
Oh one other recommendation would be PSO2.
Good Luck!
Cheers,

Tough choice and great you don't have to make it! I'm quite impressed Wildstar can butt heads with a starwars game given the veteran appeal of SWTOR. More people should try it out, it's not the worst MMO to come out as some haters would say, it's by far the most innovative combat i've seen in an MMO.
Tried both games recently, am suprised I'm choosing Wildstar over SWTOR, being a huge Star Wars fan myself (because lightsabers!). Something about the game just got me, maybe it's the really involved combat system, just feels totally immersive and action packed.
Sorry, but just watching the replies is rather amusing in a way. It wasn't too long ago most people on this site would discourage anyone from playing TOR. My how the pendulum has swung.
With my gaming budget and playing time so tight now I only sub to one game a month the fill in the odd crack with a free to play.
I don't think I can sleep walk another toon to 90 in WoW .I have no problems with the game I just feel I need a break and move on.
I have been running around in Wildstar for few days and have enjoyed it but Have an itch for Starwars but just can't stand the free version of Swtor so would have to re sub the game.Gw2 is fine but leaves me cold I don't know why it just does.
The only real problem I have with Wildstar is there seems to be a lack of players I maybe incorrect it just feels a little empty.
So just wanting to know how others view the state of each game good or bad. Cheers
I can tell you that WS population is healthy once you get to 50. I think unlike many MMOs where people incessantly roll alts once they get to max level WS has more than enough to do and your character takes a time investment. This is the reason that you have probably noticed the starter areas aren't bustling.
I haven't played SWToR in years but I hear that they have had some success since they went F2P, I really can't comment on the game.
I personally really enjoy WS and if I were you I would probably at least play for a few months get your toon to max level and then see how you like the game.

yeah really good players in Wildstar show up at higher level, proven time and time again
I'm not sure these games can be compared like that. I mean, SWTOR is made by BioWare, epic stories and you can feel it's quality. Wildstar on the other hand.... nevermind lol.

What an odd exchange to link that post to.

SWTOR or Wildstar. That is a very tough choice. Two very enjoyable MMOs with polarizing strengths and weaknesses.
If I chose SWTOR, I would miss Wildstar's combat, world design, crafting, paths, and warplots.
If I chose Wildstar, I would miss SWTOR's combat, class design, storyline, and space content.
Glad I dont have to choose haha.
Personally, I would choose SWTOR. The most obvious reason is because it's funkin' Star Wars, mang.
On the other hand, Wildstar felt like a browser based game to me. I get the F2P feelz from it.

Wildstar:
Don't like the art style.
Don't like the story.
Combat is ok but not my cup of tea.
I hear this is a WoW clone...don't know as I never played Wow.
Crafting was ok but I could not find much to keep me engaged.
SWTOR:
You get what you pay for (f2p is not free)
Art style is adequate but lacking in some regards.
Story is great but way too short...at least you can see 8 relatively unique stories (f2p excluded)
Combat is not bad but not perfect by any means.
Game gets really repetitive by the time you reach max level.
PvP does not really feel like SW but at least it is PvP...still gets repetitive.
Crafting was pretty simplistic. Not that meaningful nor engaging. Again, repetitive.
So I guess that would not be of much help. If I had to choose one I would choose SWTOR but only IF it were not a f2p game.
Let's party like it is 1863!
