    Honestly I wish MMOs would offer both routes as equally viable.

    In SWTOR you quest grind your way all the way to lvl 50. While the quests are fun and interesting, they are still just as monotonous as leve or mob grinding.

    My real problem with SWTOR us that there is no real incentive to socialize. I leveled my first character all the way up to 50 just playing with my wife. Now I'm leveling a second toon and I'm skipping the flavor speeches and just leveling, but it is STILL a grind.

    The most fun I ever had in a game was still back in Tanaka's era and people would get massive grind parties together to grind on raptors or piestes. Even when leve grinding took over, at least people were social and you could sit in a group of friends and just bs while completing your leves.

    I wish there was a game where a group of 8 players could get just as much xp for grinding mobs as they would soloing there way through 50 levels of quests. That way you could choose your own experience in the game.
