Not sure if you actually mean you like them or hate them. I'll take that as they're great.

There okay and fun

but get really addictive especially as they dont have a vertiual ending like runescape.

Your really bad at this.

First of all, almost every single game (if not 100% of them) can be RPGs, seeing as you obviously am playing some sort of role.

Second, WoW is an MMORPG, not just a MMO. Probably the best example of a MMORPG, so you might want to label correctly.

Third, an third person shooter is any shooting game where you can see the character your playing as. Star Wars: Battle Front is a perfect example of this, which you listed under first person shooter.



Did you ever even play video games?

First off, Battlefront you can play in first-person view or third person view, when the option is there, it's a first-person shooter. Star Wars: Bounty Hunter is a Third-Person Shooter. I know WoW is MMORPG, so is Star Wars: Galaxies. MMO can mean any MMORPG or MMOFPS or any type of Massive Multiplayer Online game. The Old Republic is going to be MMORPG, which I have no love for. There are some games that are more Role-Playing than others, games that let you choose to be good or evil throughout the entire game are considered RPG's, and games where you are given lines of text to choose from are RPG's.

A good trailer doesn't necessarily mean a good game.

Dude i know that. I would still reccomend trying TOR because this is Bioware, the best story writers for games, they have stated if you do not wish to play with other people you can do the story/instances Solo.
I would suggest give it a shot when it comes out. They said that this will be KOTOR 3-10 all in one MMO which you can just do the story and after that if theres nothing for you to do quit. Or if you do not want to play with randomers just play with freinds you actually know. I love playing MMO's it gives you a chance to stick out from the crowd and I love PvP but also love story, I willl most liekly do Co-op story though. If you liked the KOTOR's then seriously try this. And if you have not seen the Gameplay walkthrough:

If it has a storyline and plot, and has a storyline similar to the KotOR games, sure, I'll try it. If it's just World of Warcraft with lightsabers then I think I'll just pass. I love sticking out from people, makes me feel good. Maybe since I hated Galaxies, I'll say this better be good.

Haha i think most people who hated SWG are going to be on TOR, george lucas had way too much control over SWG and wanted it to be like WOW but failed, I hate WoW aswell, SWG was ok for a month but got boring after. If you've seen any of the interviews they have said this is focused on the story but there is going to be something there for everyone.
