Star Wars Galaxies has been publicised as an MMORPG for people who don't like MMORPGs, an MMORPG for casual players, and a chance to live in the Star Wars universe. It falls short on each one of these counts. Its Star Wars atmosphere is minimal, and its advancement is riddled with repetitive, boring, time-consuming experience-grind busywork. In some ways, Galaxies bears more resemblance to the glorified chatrooms of The Sims Online than to conventional MMORPGs like Anarchy Online or EverQuest.
