Sadly, I think if they marketed this like a Diablo Star Wars game and not a WoW Star Wars game with a free on-line multiplayer component to work in tandem with the offline component it would have been so much better. Game always failed on expectations.
I've been playing it with a KotoR like nostalgia that has me really enjoying it. The fact that it's multiplayer only serves for a distraction in chat while I'm taking a taxi somewhere or sorting out my inventory... or the odd time someone's around when I'm starting a heroic quest and I invite them.

Then I do the odd flashpoint which all seem pretty straight forward up to level 19 anyway.

So overall, I'm enjoying it for what it is.... like you said a vanilla-WoW clone set in the Star Wars universe that would have been just as popular/succesful as a single player KotoR 3 I think.

All that said, I've subscribed for now because I feel I'm getting $15 worth of enjoyment so far.

Not sure about this whole Republic side guild you're talking about tho... Imperial ftw :P
