"Do you want a game with no casuals so about 500 players?"
Do your friends play WoW or do most of your friends play SWTOR (or both)?
That is the decisive factor in the end. At least for me.
Lol that's the same stuff blizzard promised for Cata. And no I don't trust BioWare any more than any other company.Plus bigger raid tiers, with more frequently added content(thats the plan anyway) better than one 8 boss raid per tier.
No one can "convince" you one way or the other. The choice is yours. For me, I was don pretty much at the start of Cata. I was unable to raid because of a crappy internet connection, and I'm not able to get another provider. I stuck around mostly because of friends, but as the expansion dragged on, more and more of them just stopped logging in. I finally quit about a month ago when my sub was up. I just found no friends + lack of content at 85 for non raiders/PvPer's and the game was dead to me.
Before I get flamed. I have one of each class at 85 sans DK. All craft skills at max, and more gold then I would ever be able to spend. Loremaster on my priest and seeker on 3 other toons. So yeah, I was at the point of been there, did that and have the achievements.
Be poor. When the money is low cutting WoW is the easiest/first thing to go. You'd be surprised how far you can stretch an extra 15 dollars when you really need it.
