god-mode as you call it (full doc buffs/entertainer) was a choice. You did not have to have it to survive in pre-cu. It was a challenge to go unbuffed out in the wild but it could be done. The sad part was that people liked it on ezmode heh. SwG after CU was complete crap.
to the topic :
AO - never played it so cannot comment
SwG - it is not worth the cash to spend on in it's current form imho. They have moved to a MMOFPSish kind of combat style. They have watered down the professions to 9 basics which include Jedi as a starter profession. They removed alot of its complexity with this latest NGE as well. No more CH/BE etc. They did change how experience works to more of a quest based style ala WoW, but in the end it is a waste of cash to think about going back to this extended beta test of a game.
WoW - started playing this last Nov. It is a decent game but very grindish to the casual player such as I. Takes a while to get to 60 unless your committed to spending countless hours at the computer. Every patch seems to introduce more time-sink faction grinds and a few new instances that take weeks/months to learn and get your group equipped to handle. This game is more suited to the power-gamer imho, the guy that has the time to spend every day to be the best and have the best equipment. Pros are there are many choices in how about you level and many different zones to explore. Pretty easy game control-wise and combat wise. Understand how stats work versus your class and half the battle is over.
the bottom line is in the end, you will have to choose what you want to play. Whatever your style suits you best.
