SWTOR is what happens when you prioritize story over gameplay in an online game. I doubt they'll make the same mistake again. For all it's faults the story is the only reason I still play SWTOR. And I'm not the only one. Keep your negativity to yourself thank you very much Only reason I still play SWTOR is the story. Especially the original eight class stories. Plus Flashpoints, I enjoy the stories in them. If Anthem can pull that off, I will enjoy it.

I'll be impressed if they manage to prioritize the story over gameplay, though the gameplay, from what I can see, still looks pretty good. It's basically just bits of Mass Effect dialed up in exo-suits. But yeah, it's going to need to hook me with the story, because I already have a game that's basically nothing but gameplay right now (Destiny).

And that would happen how? No story in the shared world. Well, no scripted story anyway. Kind of like saying it's going to be hard to immerse yourself in the story while wandering around The Fallow Mire in DAI, with a 13 year old insulting your mother in your headphones. Are you trying to say that you can play the entire storyline without entering the shared world? From what I understand, based on Mark Darrah and Jonathan Warners comments, you can play the entire story campaign solo; albeit it it'll be a bit more challenging. In addition, the free-roam environment is also able to be a solo instance, but if you want, you can have the game set to matchmake you with other players within your instance. I think the only thing you absolutely need to have other players involved with are the games Strongholds.

Indeed, though even in that case, I'd wait and see what people say. Even if you CAN do it alone, that doesn't help if the mechanics and the way the story telling works are still mainly made with coop in mind.
