Lol "objectively." I thought most of the story in Swtor was pretty good. It suffers from typical MMO problems of "go here, do this, repeat 4 times" but I enjoyed it for it's merits. The character's were cool, it was really fun getting to roleplay such a wide variety of classes, it had some epic plotlines and lore. I liked it.

Guess that's your problem. I can't think of a single plotline I didn't like. Knight wasn't too good but it built up to an epic showdown and I had fun roleplaying it. Consular was really cool with the Act I mystery and then the Children storyline. Smuggler was hilarious and a fun romp. Trooper was probably my least favorite but I still enjoyed being a soldier and roleplaying military shit. Inquisitor was awesome and it was great to be a cackling villain rising to power. Warrior was cool for being like an honorable Dark Knight character. Bounty Hunter had a great Act I villain and I really like Mako and collecting difficulty bounties and shit. And Agent was the best class story in the game.
I could probably go further and write up mini-reviews for each class and maybe even some thoughts on the companions, but lets just leave it that I genuinely enjoyed the plot of the game. It was a fun Bioware experience, just like all their other games.
This is so awesome!
As much as I like the Jedi vs. Sith story it does get a bit repetitive. Introducing an entire new faction like this is genius! It's great when enemies have to team-up to beat a mutual threat, like when Manta Force and Viper Squad had to join forces to fight Mad Karnock. That was so amazing, I still remember how gobsmacked I was when I saw the commercial.

The problem is, this concept itself got repetitive. The last expansion was Jedi and Sith uniting against Revan and then in the patches, against Vitiate and now these guys. And another problem is, Bioware destroy their characters every time they try to present this concept like its a unique idea for SWTOR.

True but in both of those cases the threat came from "within" in that it was someone previously established. I like that this time it's an entire new menace that has no established links to anyone (seemingly).

Personally that doesn't bother me but yeah, I can see why that would be cause for complaint.

I'm kinda disappointed Arc killed Thex, just because I would have liked to see some botherly duo dynamics when/if the characters fight em.
I agree. It would have been better if they were the "final boss" as it were. It doesn't help that their father's design is the definition of generic.

Mass Effect 3 was a good game. Butthurt grognards pissing and moaning about the ending just ignore the quality of the rest of the game because they're twats.
