The story in SWTOR is unlike any I've seen in any MMO before (FFXIV's story, by contrast, bored me to tears). I also like the combat quite a bit, which also is rare in MMO's (again, FFXIV's combat was just.... zzzzz)
If another MMO coming down the pipeline can replicate SWTOR's storytelling prowess, than definitely I'll check it out, as that's a huge part of me actually liking a game. But that seems rare as most mmos don't seem to want to put in the time or money for quality writing and plots.
My only regret is I desperately wish I could transport this community to my new home ._. People here are so much friendlier and social.
I still play a little SWTOR. There are a lot of things that irk me about it, and the combat is NOT my favorite, but overall I don't think it deserves all of the criticism leveraged against it. I will say that it's EXTREMELY unfriendly to anyone who doesn't subscribe; hands down, the F2P option in this game is the worst I've seen in any MMO.
With that being said... what server are you on? There are a few of us from the RPC pokin' around on Ebon Hawk.
