THe problem with it though, is that while it looks like it's going to be a good MMO, it's going to be an exceptionally generic MMO.
Every time I find new information on it I get less and less excited.
Guild Wars 2 looks fantastic, but I'm not into free to play MMO's. They usually are substandard in quality and go by the "Pay to Win" mentality. In other words: Using real money to get the best armor and waepons without any work.

Actually, most F2P MMORPGs seem to let free players get pretty much as good gear as paying players, and just sell equipment that is purely cosmetic, account upgrades (character slots, etc.), maybe classes and races, and so on.
Anyways, about SW:TOR
I've pre-ordered it as well, and it does look freaking awesome. I've yet to play a BioWare game that disappointed me. However, I'm worried that the conversation thingy in flashpoint will get annoying rather than interesting after you have finished that flashpoint once or twice before, and since I'm someone who loves to make new character, that can be a problem.
Also, another huge problem with cutscenes in WoW is that the message window disappears, so if I'm in a conversation I have to either wait until the cutscene is over to see what people say and reply, or skip the cutscene, and most of the time I did the latter despite that I kind of wanted to see the cutscene.
Anyways, since the game has a lot of cutscenes, I'm hoping they've thought of that.
About the same as WoW, I think it will be better though. Any news if there is going to be grinding like the traditional MMORPG or not? I would love it if they didn't have that.
