Why I am no longer playing Star Wars: The Old Republic

Two things: first, dull and annoying and endless daily quests. I don't like daily quests anyway. It makes the game feel like a job. I don't want to pay to work.

Star Wars: The Old Republic Romances

I had a whole post written about the things I hate and things I love about SW:TOR. And it disappeared into internet ether. I was silly to write it directly in Dreamwidth instead of in Open Office first. But I sent this connected post to my husband, so I'll post it instead, though it was supposed to spin off a point in the other post. Namely: male characters have more romance options than female characters, but I think the male characters get the worst of it. (All romances are heterosexual so far, which was a point in that disappeared post, gah.) SPOILERS AHEAD.
