Anyone playing Star Wars: The Old Republic?

Having difficulty navigating.

The games I've played most were Ultima & SWGalaxies where you could maneuver your toon completely & solely via mouse.
If there is that option for SWTOR, I sure haven't found it... any help/suggestions?

The graphics I've seen so far are definitely sub-par Galaxies, too; which I had played since it's beta. Sure they royally messed up with CU & NGE, but one thing you were always guaranteed of: gorgeous graphics, oth planetary AND space.

So far, not a good experience... psyche me up, somebody, will ya?

at this point I appreciate any counsel, positive or negative!
--just hoping it would be positive since then I would have no MMORPG to play in, oh, over 20 years
since I don't like (hominid) strictly kill-em-for ultra high score
or really depressing games, such as Silent Hill, etc.

But thank you!


BTW: what turned you off of SWTOR? There was such anticipation towards it, at least in Galaxies...

but there is that element. All questing etc. no exploring just linear go here and do the stuff we tell you to do. Even the story gets me down, you know no matter your decision you will STILL go to planet X and do Y.

Space is a rail shooter ho hum.

ATM I'm hanging around EQII and SWGemu (the emulator which ain't that bad. see www.swgemu.com)
