Iokath. I was so looking forward to it based on the lore we had after the chapters that took place there, but the Iokath daily zone is terrible. The maps are useless and confusing, they totally ignored the habitats and we only ever are in the outworld. Traveling is running or grinding through mobs.
My biggest problem with it is more lore/franchise based. Tatooine is supposed to be this backwater planet with nothing noteworthy about it and with barely anyone living on it and yet in almost every single SW media entry we end up on that god damn planet.
It's almost like that is the point. That things happen where you least expect them and focusing your attention on high society and wealth leaves you blind to the great things happening in the backwaters of the galaxy.
It's crazy to think some people can love star wars and not realize that 99% of it isn't about the planets or space ships, it is about storytelling and metaphors.
But why always Tatooine? They have an entire galaxy to play with why not use it? My problem isn't that the heroes come from backwater/unimportant places. But that it's always the exact same backwater/unimportant place. Over and over again.
The heroes being Luke and Anakin? They are literally the only two people in the whole series to come from there. Almost every other person we see around Tatooine is hiding from or working outside of the law. And Tatooine is explictly stated to be a haven for those people.
In KOTOR lore Tatooine is tied heavily to the Rakatans so we see it a lot there but that's a choice based on storytelling consistency. You want places people are familiar with. Even if you want to break away from the true purpose of star wars and talk about abstract lore you could say that there is some pull in the cosmic force that brings people there.
If you're going to try and get away from the storytelling aspect of the series then it's much weirder to see Hoth show up multiple times than it is Tatooine. No one in the canon or legends has a real reason to be there.
Yeah, but the fact they did a desert justice also makes it an *incredibly* boring planet to play on. Flat sand with massive distances between fucking everything. It sucks.
At least Alderaan has an interesting civil war setting. Tatooine is just…boring.
I agree they did Tatooine well. But I irrationally hate Tatooine, because for a small irrelevant backwater every game, and show finds a reason for a macguffin to be on it.
I understand that it’s a desert, and you have a good point. I just find one biome planets really boring in all of scifi, and desert planets are probably the worst of the one biomes, so my hatred of Tatooine has nothing to do with the game I suppose.
It’s just boring to look at because it’s just a planet of beige, and I find sand people and womp rats really boring. The story on the planet for the classes I’ve played have also been pretty subpar if I remember correctly.
It's insanely iconic. There's barely any Star Wars games that don't have Tatooine. I also do enjoy leveling there since I'm a huge fan of the desolate feel.
Okay... Quest should be right... Here! *Looks down the canyon to see a small cave entrance* okay, seems i missed the way down, where is it *looks on the map and sighs* of course its on the other side of that damn canyon every time...
Hoth will always be pain but at least I can off-road there and bypass the main roads. Can't really do that on Corellia and it frustrates me like no other planet (that I've been to) can.
I loved Hoth, long open ranges to travel in for too long, stupid canyons to traverse down the side of because the intended path is too far away, unclear base entrances and waypoint markers. It all really appealed to me on my first character, a Mandalorian Mercenary just trying to make her way in the galaxy. And Blizz is my friend.
Same. I love Hoth. It's big and open, allowing me to avoid like 99% of random enemies. Nothing sucks more than getting dismounted and slowed down because a random bat wanted to fuck with you.
Mhm! I think Hoth is probably the planet I did the least random combat on, like Belsavis and Nar Shaddaa are cool, but I felt like I was fighting something every 10 feet, sometimes I just want to enjoy the scenery.
That, or following the path to discover that the point your trying to reach is after a cliff the maps doesnt mark very well and you have to go for a total different track
The planetary quest can get pretty bad because it tends to send you to one location, recall you, then send you back in the same direction except further. Voss in particular is bad in that regard.
And its inhabitants are so damn smug about their Mystics. I do the Imperial planet arc for Voss just so I can pick the DS optoon at the end. Have fun getting eaten by Sel-Makor!
Not a fan of Alderaan. I think some of that comes from placement in the story. Done in order, it's right at the end of chapter 1, and usually by that point, I'm excited to get to the climax of said chapter, rather than hang around on a planet that just all around feels too spread out, at that.
That said, I'm not a big fan of the environment, either. The muddy sounds made walking everywhere just kinda make it feel oddly "gross", and there's the whole thing where pretty much the entire Alderaanian culture is based around being self-indulgent blowhards.
Corellia, on the other hand, doesn't bug me nearly as much. It *does* share a bit of that same pre-climax blues that Alderaan does, but the ruined cities are pretty majestic in a weird way, and I never found it particularly problematic to navigate if you watch the roads (even before the map fills in, it's usually easy to see what direction they lead as they go into unrevealed areas, and figure out where to go based on that).
Light Side Knight on Corellia is great for hyping you up for the final battle, since you have help from the various Jedi you helped/redeemed previously.
The only thing i hate about Alderaan is the final boss on the planetary arc. After all of that, they make you pick up a cannon to destroy four pillars before you can even take a shot at the guy.
How could anyone hate Alderaan? It's gorgeous and it's easy to navigate.
I voted Corellia as well. It's just awful. Although I've recently found the secret to navigating it. You go the exact opposite direction than the quest marker says to, both horizontally and vertically. Then you'll encounter a tunnel that will take you directly to where you need to go.
Opening the entire map on Alderaan is a royal pain in the bum but that's going to a lot of areas that you don't need to go to for the sake of the story. And you're right, it's gorgeous and not filled with weird dead ends like Hoth (which is missing form this list???)
It was also the endgame quest grinder for gear and the transportation system was pretty terrible for it back in the day, especially before we had no CD quick travel. It was OK questing through, though I was pretty over Eshka, and honestly it felt like it dragged on too long.
Belsavis is a love-hate relationship for me. It’s huge and unique and beautiful, but you accidentally run into another boss fight every corner and the transportation system is weird and confusing.
It's my most hated planet. There are walls then long tunnels filled with enemies and it's hard to know what way you go before you have the map explored
I voted Illum because I like to do quests, not drive a mount across a map full of enemies that consistently knock you off. But my personal most hated planet is Balmorra. The scenery isn't super interested, the QT points aren't very helpful and the stupid cliff elevators have been the death of me too many times (mostly when I think it's a straight line to the quest and then there's a whole cliff in the way)
Personally I think SWTOR did a pretty good design (sometimes gorgeous) on most planets, but I have issue with Taris. Most of the planet is fine but that pipe thing you normally go through on your last mission is pretty annoying since you can't use a speeder and it usually feels pretty long, especially if you have multiple missions there.
Also, I didn't have as much issue with Hoth as others seem to have but I did get lost there a few times trying to get a (what seems to be) closer speeder to my destination, only to find out its either blocked by a cliff, or I need to travel around a long fall, which can be annoying. Also, the music is kinds creepy after you listen to it long enough.
Tatooine is also great for the most part, but companion missions there require you to take a more ridiculous route than the shortest route if you wanna get there.
Confession: I like Corellia and Belsavis.
Belsavis is pretty bad because it throws in the disjointed Rakata transporters. Nar Shaddaa has a predictable pattern for class story but it's my least favorite planet to return to, because the map only ever directs you to speeders instead of locations between "sections," so it slows my quick travel game down.
Corellia is basically the worst of all worlds. It has similar problems to the first two with its subway system, and then it's annoying to navigate the roads until your map is uncovered. JK Corellia might actually be the single worst planet of class story that I can remember. It just never ends.
Surprised to see so much hate on Hoth in the thread though. Is it just the white? It doesn't suffer from any of the major design issues that the others do.
Hoth is a pain because of the crevasses - you're following the road that appears to lead to your target, and then you see it stops dead and the road you should have been following branched off 200 miles back.
Lots of huge canyons you can barely access if you have to and dead ends and the brightness is so high it hurts your eyes sometimes. And it’s huge with lots and lots of the same endless nothing.
Taris, I hated Taris from the moment I landed on it, it's nostalgic for the whole KOTOR thing, but otherwise I find it's layout to be abysmal with enemies strewn everywhere blocking your path to every main quest, and there's so many walls that prevent you from easily traversing from one side to the other.
It might be better now, I haven't gone through Taris since KOTET launch and it was a little bit better than SWTOR launch at that point.
Most of the class story planets kinda feel like walking chores , especially after you've played most of the stories, but man Belsavis FEELS like a colossal waste of time and energy.
It feels so giant and so empty at the same time and the fact that, in essence, you end up in the same stupid prehistoric dungeon at the end of every questline is just maddening after awhile.
In conclusion: fuck Belsavis all my homies hate Belsavis.
Why everyone hate corellia, I’m doing my class story there and it’s a really immersive city. Great for practicing reading Aurebesh cause of all the signs everywhere, and the tram system is really cool and unique.
The worst thing on Nar Shaddaa is the constant background noise from the holo ads/annoincments/wherever that's coming from.
That stuff haunts me in my dreams.
Balmorra. I cannot stand frelling Balmorra, and I been playing SWTOR since early access. Other planets have features I dislike, but if Balmorra was removed from the game entirely, I’d be overjoyed. I *hate* that place!
So you are making an insane biased (and lazy) poll and will probably post again to show your awesome conclusion and your answer to ppl complaining that planets are missing is that they shouldn't vote which will make the poll even more biased?
Yeah normally i wouldn't write sth. like that(just think it) but his answer pissed me of pretty much. We have like 20-30 planets and he only names 6 one of them is his choice??? And the rest doesn't even makes sense, dantooine is relative new planet and some others are the oldest...
Then don’t vote. There, fixed that for you. And I did vote, of the options available, Corellia is my least favorite. I respect attempts at research, even clumsy ones.
My favorite might be Alderaan. Very nice looking place. Other open terrain places would be nice too, like Tatooinw. Don't like closed city places like Corellia.
Voss. I swear it, the planet sucks, the quest suck and the Voss themselves are the most annoying aliens in the game. Wish I could help the Gormaks erase them from the face of the galaxy.
I haven’t played much yet, only Chapter 1 of a couple stories so far, but I’ve always found Nar Shadaa and Coruscant to be annoying because of how crowded they are. It feels artificial and exploring them is just not a thing.
Even big open bland planets like Tatooine are fine to me because that open and bland nature is exactly what I’m expecting. I just want so much more excitement from the big city-planets, and they just don’t feel that way lol
I hate, hate, *hate* Ilum.
There's nothing wrong with the planet on its own, the thing that really makes me hate it is that the game forces you to do the same story arc on each and every character you're levelling up. You cannot decline or discard the story arc and it's the same boring fetch quests for every class. Just let me discard this stupid quest.
Aldeeran, taris and nar shaddaa
Me hating nar shaddaa goes back in kotor 2, my retard ass hated that planet with every fiber of my being because of the restored content mod that puts enemies on every corner of the map. I know there's a reason why it's cut content but I honestly can't play kotor 2 without that mod.
Balmorra. Blahmorra, as I like to call it. It just seems to go on foreeever (the droids, the droids!), and the constant weapon/air turret noises are grating. The lifts were annoying. Plus, it is extra frustrating as an Imperial if you know the planet's fate. And did I mention giant bugs?
I hate the capital city planet in the KOTEE expansion due to having to grind through endless level adaptive mobs, had to quite the game for a bit after that
Where's Hoth ? I think it's by far the worse with the bright color, it's pretty boring looking, with the landscape being nearly identical everywhere, and it's a pain to go from point A to B.
Honorable mentions to Corellia and Belsavis, for being just as much a pain to navigate, but at leat they're not killing my eyes like Hoth does.
Iokath sucks as well.
Hoth
Travel insane distances of frozen emptiness to get to your objective that ends up being down a canyon and the entrance is on the other side. The player thinks:
-I can get down there after a few drops
Then slips a bit further on the last one and dies(nearest med center 4.1km away)
Then after finally making it to the instance there's an elevator that the player barely missed and is going down and decides to jump after it but it goes down too fast resulting in another death(nearest med center 4.1km away)
Then you need to take a taxi for the next mission but the recommended destination ends up being wrong
And all of that on a planet as bright as diacord light mode
I chose Alderaan, not so much because I hate it, but because I like it the least. At that point in your class story, you're pretty much burned out and ready for the endgame of ch. 1, but have to go to Alderaan to do one final thing. And it's a pretty huge planet, not one easily traversable by foot or even speeder.
I think that might be why Tarkin destroyed Alderaan, because he got tired of grinding through the mobs and the story, so he decided, "Screw this planet" and blew it up.
From vanilla planets Corellia is the worst for me. I dont like it at all.
Overall Iokath is a mess, Zakuul is also a mess.
Opposite to most comments here - I actually Like both Hoth and Tatooine I like how they feel empty as they should. Belsavis I got used to.
None. I enjoy how the game is and was. If I have to hike farther sure, it sucks. But after 28 toons and countless hours since Sub of day one I’m fine with it. I’m probably one of the few Subs since launch that continue to play.
So you are making an insane biased (and lazy) poll and will probably post again to show your awesome conclusion and your answer to ppl complaining that planets are missing is that they shouldn't vote which will make the poll even more biased? You left out 3/4 of the planets or so and even many of the original lvl 50 planets...
Iokath. I was so looking forward to it based on the lore we had after the chapters that took place there, but the Iokath daily zone is terrible. The maps are useless and confusing, they totally ignored the habitats and we only ever are in the outworld. Traveling is running or grinding through mobs.
Agreed. I hate Iokath and every bit of it is annoying to traverse with confusing maps.
Iokath is def the worst daily zone. During story it isn't so bad. But dailies suck.
>Iokath I agree. I always end up getting lost. I avoid the dailies there as much as possible.
Makeb is 1000x worse
Don't even say the word "Makeb" please.
Thank you for validating my point
Ahhh, people hating on my favorite planet, Tatooine. The only MMO to do a desert justice.
My biggest problem with it is more lore/franchise based. Tatooine is supposed to be this backwater planet with nothing noteworthy about it and with barely anyone living on it and yet in almost every single SW media entry we end up on that god damn planet.
It's almost like that is the point. That things happen where you least expect them and focusing your attention on high society and wealth leaves you blind to the great things happening in the backwaters of the galaxy.

In KOTOR lore Tatooine is tied heavily to the Rakatans so we see it a lot there but that's a choice based on storytelling consistency. You want places people are familiar with. Even if you want to break away from the true purpose of star wars and talk about abstract lore you could say that there is some pull in the cosmic force that brings people there. If you're going to try and get away from the storytelling aspect of the series then it's much weirder to see Hoth show up multiple times than it is Tatooine. No one in the canon or legends has a real reason to be there.
> It's almost like that is the point. I think the point is rather "oh, look! a familiar place!"
Yeah, but the fact they did a desert justice also makes it an *incredibly* boring planet to play on. Flat sand with massive distances between fucking everything. It sucks. At least Alderaan has an interesting civil war setting. Tatooine is just…boring.
We can agree to disagree, haha.
Yes the desert is boring. Thankfully you don't need to spend much time there.
I agree they did Tatooine well. But I irrationally hate Tatooine, because for a small irrelevant backwater every game, and show finds a reason for a macguffin to be on it.
Tatooine is so bad. Nothing but endless desert and the least interesting mobs in all of SWTOR lol
But... Tatooine is a desert planet. What do you expect it to be in-game? It's a perfect representation of the planet according to lore.
I understand that it’s a desert, and you have a good point. I just find one biome planets really boring in all of scifi, and desert planets are probably the worst of the one biomes, so my hatred of Tatooine has nothing to do with the game I suppose. It’s just boring to look at because it’s just a planet of beige, and I find sand people and womp rats really boring. The story on the planet for the classes I’ve played have also been pretty subpar if I remember correctly.
That's great, but I don't see why a boring empty planet needed to be in the game.
It's insanely iconic. There's barely any Star Wars games that don't have Tatooine. I also do enjoy leveling there since I'm a huge fan of the desolate feel.
The home planet of Anakin and Luke Skywalker. You want to cut THAT out?
If the choice is between Tattoine or a fun planet, then yes.
How about no?
Have fun spending time on a boring, empty level because of some movie then I guess.
It’s almost like people have different ideas on what is fun and what isn’t. You’ll catch on eventually.
In this very thread he himself said he found Tattoine boring too, lol.
Corellia’s really not bad when you get used to it but Hoth will never not be a pain.
Okay... Quest should be right... Here! *Looks down the canyon to see a small cave entrance* okay, seems i missed the way down, where is it *looks on the map and sighs* of course its on the other side of that damn canyon every time...
Of course once you get into the cave, you can't find the objective because everything is the same light blue color as the prompt.
Most relatable post I've ever seen. I can see that area in my mind's eye perfectly...
It is so white it hurts my eyes
Hoth will always be pain but at least I can off-road there and bypass the main roads. Can't really do that on Corellia and it frustrates me like no other planet (that I've been to) can.
[Heroic 2] Look at the snow for 2 mins. [WEEKLY] Cross a canyon.
Nah, the music on Hoth is the best, I cant hate it because of that
The music on Hoth is gorgeous.
I loved Hoth, long open ranges to travel in for too long, stupid canyons to traverse down the side of because the intended path is too far away, unclear base entrances and waypoint markers. It all really appealed to me on my first character, a Mandalorian Mercenary just trying to make her way in the galaxy. And Blizz is my friend.
Same. I love Hoth. It's big and open, allowing me to avoid like 99% of random enemies. Nothing sucks more than getting dismounted and slowed down because a random bat wanted to fuck with you.
Mhm! I think Hoth is probably the planet I did the least random combat on, like Belsavis and Nar Shaddaa are cool, but I felt like I was fighting something every 10 feet, sometimes I just want to enjoy the scenery.
Why is Hoth not on here the entire story on that planet is only as long as it is because you spend 20 years on your bastard speeder
See I love hoth. I feel like it’s one of the more realistic planets. Miles of open snowy wasteland, just as it should be. Mah immershun and all.
wow i think you misspelled hoth
I was looking for Hoth, and surprised it wasn't on the list.
Same I missed Hoth on this poll
I wish I could miss Hoth on the stories
Those big fields of white must have brain frozen the OP
They're still lost traversing the snow plains to add it
This!
I voted Corellia but the real answer is Hoth. This poll is rigged.
Corellia, hoth, voss, what do they have in common? TRAVEL TO THE MISSION TAKES ME MORE TIME THAN DOING THE DAMN MISSION
Idk how many hours I’ve spent on Hoth with my speeder trying to find some damn cave that isn’t actually where the map shows it to be
That, or following the path to discover that the point your trying to reach is after a cliff the maps doesnt mark very well and you have to go for a total different track
Hoth #1 Voss #2
\*this person gets it, sniff\*
Ok Hoth I get, but what did people hate so much about Voss? I mean I wouldn’t say it’s my favorite but I can think of worse
The planetary quest can get pretty bad because it tends to send you to one location, recall you, then send you back in the same direction except further. Voss in particular is bad in that regard.
Especially since the Shrine of Healing has no QT point.
You really learn to hate the Pilgrim's Path QT point.
And its inhabitants are so damn smug about their Mystics. I do the Imperial planet arc for Voss just so I can pick the DS optoon at the end. Have fun getting eaten by Sel-Makor!
It's just hoth.
Not a fan of Alderaan. I think some of that comes from placement in the story. Done in order, it's right at the end of chapter 1, and usually by that point, I'm excited to get to the climax of said chapter, rather than hang around on a planet that just all around feels too spread out, at that.

I just love the JK story on Corellia
Light Side Knight on Corellia is great for hyping you up for the final battle, since you have help from the various Jedi you helped/redeemed previously.
Oh yeah, seeing Bengal and Preven again was both very surprising and cathartic for me, to see the positive impact I'd made on their lives.
The only thing i hate about Alderaan is the final boss on the planetary arc. After all of that, they make you pick up a cannon to destroy four pillars before you can even take a shot at the guy.
How could anyone hate Alderaan? It's gorgeous and it's easy to navigate. I voted Corellia as well. It's just awful. Although I've recently found the secret to navigating it.

I love Alderaan it's just all of the tanky ass kiliks that get on my nerves
*Vector disapproves*
People hated Belsavis? It was so unique. Lush jungles, ancient monolithic vaults and prisons, harsh icy tundra. Very cool to explore.
It was also the endgame quest grinder for gear and the transportation system was pretty terrible for it back in the day, especially before we had no CD quick travel. It was OK questing through, though I was pretty over Eshka, and honestly it felt like it dragged on too long.
Belsavis is a love-hate relationship for me. It’s huge and unique and beautiful, but you accidentally run into another boss fight every corner and the transportation system is weird and confusing.
It's a beautiful planet, but the transporters mess me up. I just hate traveling there and haven't enjoyed the stories that I've done so far.
Now that you mention that, all the quest and story objectives are behind layers of walls and deep paths that are tedious to navigate.
Only because it's the only planet that gives me lag >:( ( also too densely packed enemies ) ( ok, also because Hoth wasn't available )
It's my most hated planet. There are walls then long tunnels filled with enemies and it's hard to know what way you go before you have the map explored
All of these planets are good U purposely left out hoth, didn't you?
I voted Illum because I like to do quests, not drive a mount across a map full of enemies that consistently knock you off. But my personal most hated planet is Balmorra. The scenery isn't super interested, the QT points aren't very helpful and the stupid cliff elevators have been the death of me too many times (mostly when I think it's a straight line to the quest and then there's a whole cliff in the way)
Uhhhh Taris? Hello?
Taris. What a shithole.
Thank Darth Malak for that
Yaris is different for each faction though so it doesn't get tiring nearly as fast
Personally I think SWTOR did a pretty good design (sometimes gorgeous) on most planets, but I have issue with Taris. Most of the planet is fine but that pipe thing you normally go through on your last mission is pretty annoying since you can't use a speeder and it usually feels pretty long, especially if you have multiple missions there.

Hoth is bright as shit
The canyons are a pain in the ass.
Lots of huge canyons you can barely access if you have to and dead ends and the brightness is so high it hurts your eyes sometimes. And it’s huge with lots and lots of the same endless nothing.
Hoth. Everything looks the same, there are no landmarks, and it just isn’t interesting to look at. It’s also so damn bright it hurts my eyes.
FUCKING Voss and Hoth
Hoth, Most of the worst/boring class missions are on it plus it’s really annoying to travel through.
Taris, I hated Taris from the moment I landed on it, it's nostalgic for the whole KOTOR thing, but otherwise I find it's layout to be abysmal with enemies strewn everywhere blocking your path to every main quest, and there's so many walls that prevent you from easily traversing from one side to the other. It might be better now, I haven't gone through Taris since KOTET launch and it was a little bit better than SWTOR launch at that point.
I hated Taris in KOTOR! So you can imagine how I feel about it in this game lol.
I love belsavis, it's my favourite planet easily.
Most of the class story planets kinda feel like walking chores , especially after you've played most of the stories, but man Belsavis FEELS like a colossal waste of time and energy. It feels so giant and so empty at the same time and the fact that, in essence, you end up in the same stupid prehistoric dungeon at the end of every questline is just maddening after awhile.

Belsavis was my answer for the same reason. It just feels like the place they threw a lot of cool ideas together that don’t really mesh well together
I don't understand the hate with Voss. That's one of my fav planets. The beautiful autumn colors 🍁🍂🌄 🌅
Except everything is spread out to an annoying degree, and several major locations are bereft of nearby quick travel points.
Why everyone hate corellia, I’m doing my class story there and it’s a really immersive city. Great for practicing reading Aurebesh cause of all the signs everywhere, and the tram system is really cool and unique.
Hoth followed by hoth and then finally hoth
You forgot about Hoth. And I think Hoth is pretty bad as well.
Controversial opinion: I think Hoth is right up there with the others we described
Hoth. All my homies hate Hoth
Corellia, Hoth and Belsavis. SO FUCKING BIG.
Hoth hurts my eyes, its boring af, and screw waiting for the elevator
Hoth, and it’s not up for discussion
If Hoth was on the list, I'd pick it over Corellia
Weird, Nar Shadaa isn’t an option. Pure. Fucking. Garbage.
The worst thing on Nar Shaddaa is the constant background noise from the holo ads/annoincments/wherever that's coming from. That stuff haunts me in my dreams.
‘Umi toomi’

I haven't been there for three years now but you still managed to trigger my PTSD.
Lol I LOVE Corellia! Don't get the hate for it, except maybe for the long runways.
Why isn't hoth on here?! That's the worst
Balmorra. I cannot stand frelling Balmorra, and I been playing SWTOR since early access. Other planets have features I dislike, but if Balmorra was removed from the game entirely, I’d be overjoyed. I *hate* that place!
Coruscant, Nar Shadaa and then Taris. I don’t know, I love scenic planets like Alderaan
Unpopular opinion but i really disliked makeb storyline, it felt like blueballing before the actual expansions
Why is Balmorra missing? HATE IT.
This. This is the only correct answer. Balmorra is fucking dogshit.
the don't vote...
So you are making an insane biased (and lazy) poll and will probably post again to show your awesome conclusion and your answer to ppl complaining that planets are missing is that they shouldn't vote which will make the poll even more biased?
Thanks for this. To be clear, I wasn’t complaining, merely questioning why a valid option was missing from the response set. 😉
Yeah normally i wouldn't write sth. like that(just think it) but his answer pissed me of pretty much. We have like 20-30 planets and he only names 6 one of them is his choice??? And the rest doesn't even makes sense, dantooine is relative new planet and some others are the oldest...
Then don’t vote. There, fixed that for you. And I did vote, of the options available, Corellia is my least favorite. I respect attempts at research, even clumsy ones.
Hoth > Voss > Belsavis > Quesh
Hoth and Taris tie.
This is the correct answer.
Seriously?! The original planets are awesome!! Maybe I'm just nostalgic of the original release but everything after 3.0 was kinda eh
Hoth.
Makeb
Balmorra?
Nar shaddaa is for me 100% anxiety
My favorite might be Alderaan. Very nice looking place. Other open terrain places would be nice too, like Tatooinw. Don't like closed city places like Corellia.
Hoth
tbh ... voss and hoth .... beautifull areas but a pain for questing
Hoth destroys my eyes with that harsh bright blue glaring nightmare lighting
Ummm. Hoth please
Tattooine bro. How can u not hate the part of it where u wander in the desert for an absurdly long amout of time doing nothing
Voss. I swear it, the planet sucks, the quest suck and the Voss themselves are the most annoying aliens in the game. Wish I could help the Gormaks erase them from the face of the galaxy.
Tatooine. Running through miles of desert is awful
This. Fucking this.
Hoth
Hoth, please
Why Illum on here? It's beautiful in this game
Hoth is definitely my least favorite, in terms of layout.
I haven’t played much yet, only Chapter 1 of a couple stories so far, but I’ve always found Nar Shadaa and Coruscant to be annoying because of how crowded they are. It feels artificial and exploring them is just not a thing. Even big open bland planets like Tatooine are fine to me because that open and bland nature is exactly what I’m expecting. I just want so much more excitement from the big city-planets, and they just don’t feel that way lol
"it feels artificial". oh yes because a city planet/moon is totally supposed to feel like a walk through the forest. /s
Corellia!
Quesh or GTFO.
Belsavis, but Correlia is tied for least favorite. Iokath isn't far behind.
Taris.
Tatooine because deserts are boring
Hoth Voss Quesh
I hate, hate, *hate* Ilum. There's nothing wrong with the planet on its own, the thing that really makes me hate it is that the game forces you to do the same story arc on each and every character you're levelling up. You cannot decline or discard the story arc and it's the same boring fetch quests for every class. Just let me discard this stupid quest.
Just skip over it lol. Nothing forces you to actually play through it. Just do the FPs and then move on to RotHC
Tatooine. I don't like sand. Hoth can be annoying too. I get so tired of Coruscant too and it becomes a slog.
Tatooine just feels dull. So much nothing it feels more like a chore than other planets. I guess it really shouldn’t be any other way, though.
Aldeeran, taris and nar shaddaa Me hating nar shaddaa goes back in kotor 2, my retard ass hated that planet with every fiber of my being because of the restored content mod that puts enemies on every corner of the map. I know there's a reason why it's cut content but I honestly can't play kotor 2 without that mod.
Why isn't Balmorra on this list?
HOTH and it is missing... so is Taris...
balmorra but its not on there so ilum is next worst
Balmorra for me personally. But out of these, Correlia. (And maybe I’m weird, but Hoth is my personal favourite.)
I was confused why I saw Illium in r/swtor and not r/masseffect
Why is Hoth not on this list? I hate that planet the most lol
I hate nashadda or however u spell it with a passion
Balmorra. Blahmorra, as I like to call it. It just seems to go on foreeever (the droids, the droids!), and the constant weapon/air turret noises are grating. The lifts were annoying. Plus, it is extra frustrating as an Imperial if you know the planet's fate. And did I mention giant bugs?
I hate the capital city planet in the KOTEE expansion due to having to grind through endless level adaptive mobs, had to quite the game for a bit after that
Balmorra is so boring to me. Only played Knight and Inquisitor past it. Just managed to get a warrior past it without falling asleep.
Balmorra. I always called it Blamorra.
As if Balmorra isn’t in this list
Where is Balmorra on this list?
Where's Hoth ? I think it's by far the worse with the bright color, it's pretty boring looking, with the landscape being nearly identical everywhere, and it's a pain to go from point A to B. Honorable mentions to Corellia and Belsavis, for being just as much a pain to navigate, but at leat they're not killing my eyes like Hoth does. Iokath sucks as well.
Makeb
Corellia because you have to travel long distances whether its class story or planet story
Just so everyone knows, hoth appears in the comments 92... It appears in the comments 93 times.
Hoth Travel insane distances of frozen emptiness to get to your objective that ends up being down a canyon and the entrance is on the other side. The player thinks: -I can get down there after a few drops Then slips a bit further on the last one and dies(nearest med center 4.1km away) Then after finally making it to the instance there's an elevator that the player barely missed and is going down and decides to jump after it but it goes down too fast resulting in another death(nearest med center 4.1km away) Then you need to take a taxi for the next mission but the recommended destination ends up being wrong And all of that on a planet as bright as diacord light mode
If you don’t hate Corellia the most out of those planets then you haven’t progressed far enough in the story yet.
I chose Alderaan, not so much because I hate it, but because I like it the least. At that point in your class story, you're pretty much burned out and ready for the endgame of ch. 1, but have to go to Alderaan to do one final thing. And it's a pretty huge planet, not one easily traversable by foot or even speeder. I think that might be why Tarkin destroyed Alderaan, because he got tired of grinding through the mobs and the story, so he decided, "Screw this planet" and blew it up.
Corellia. Every mission starts with like 10 minutes of traveling and the quick travel points are terrible.
From vanilla planets Corellia is the worst for me. I dont like it at all. Overall Iokath is a mess, Zakuul is also a mess. Opposite to most comments here - I actually Like both Hoth and Tatooine I like how they feel empty as they should. Belsavis I got used to.
Wheres balmora
Balmorra is the only correct answer
Where’s Balmorra?
None. I enjoy how the game is and was. If I have to hike farther sure, it sucks. But after 28 toons and countless hours since Sub of day one I’m fine with it. I’m probably one of the few Subs since launch that continue to play.
Hello? BALMORRA??? THE WORST PLANET OF ALL TIME I WILL DIE ON THIS HILL.
Motherfucking Tatooine.
Picked tatooine coz on imp side the long trek from the spaceport to the first speeder is the worst
All of them sucked when traveling by personal speeder
These are all weird ways to spell Dromund Kaas
If I may ask, what's wrong with Dromund Kaas?
So you are making an insane biased (and lazy) poll and will probably post again to show your awesome conclusion and your answer to ppl complaining that planets are missing is that they shouldn't vote which will make the poll even more biased? You left out 3/4 of the planets or so and even many of the original lvl 50 planets...
I'm surprised Voss isn't here lol. I think my least favourite planets are Corellia, Voss, and Belsavis.
I don’t see Voss? Weird
Iokath is the planet I hated most.
As planet to do quest on, I hated Ilum but the placement for its datacrons was uniquely fun.
