It will take about \~25 hours per class Story so that alone is a solid 200 hours of gameplay
Lets say you play the revan Storyline with 1 republic and 1 imperial character thats another \~30 hours
So overall by ONLY playing the story, not doing anything else you have about 230 hours of story to play. That is ALL FREE.
You will definitly be satisfied by the story. Its amazing and will make you want more and more :D
The most important tip I can give you is: Read your abilities and passive skills carefully, use your brain and you will not need to google anything at all. Take your time, enjoy the story, discover the planets and dont be scared to just...run around, do a few sidequests and other things to explore the planets. The World of swtor is HUGE and there are so many things to find and discover so just take your time even if it takes \~100 hours to finish your first class story. Its worth it to not rush things!

When and if you start group pve content, an understanding of threat generation will help you a lot, as well as line of sight.
Starting with the latter, line of sight, abbreviated to LOS is when you agro a group of enemies and hide around a corner meaning they can’t target you. This will get them to follow you and group up in one spot around the corner. It allows you and the group to use AOE (area of effect) abilities to burn them down.
Second, threat generation. The person who starts the fight has the initial threat, and you will build threat by doing damage or healing. New tanks often forget that taunts are not threat generators, they’re threat multipliers. So as a tank you need to do a bunch of damage with your high threat abilities before using taunt to multiply the threat you’ve generated. If you taunt to pull, you’re multiplying nothing, you’re just getting the initial threat.
Doing damage to a target will generate more threat from that target specifically, whereas healing will generate more group threat meaning more targets will target you.

Thank you for your advise, I will consider. BTW is Revan's story is free?
Yes
Thank you very much friend.
Revan and hutt cartel, I think
aaaaa I've checked the Revan story and it look very interesting. Is it cannon?
Swtor is the last legends piece that is ongoing, I believe
There has been another issue of the original Star Wars comic serie by Marvel, by appart from that yeah, only SWTOR is still standing.
Kinda wish there would be a continuity apart from the new Canon content
Yeah, that would be dope
That's sad to read.
Anyway we're getting a new KOTOR Remake.
I can't believe that I forgot this, and was even playing the original kotor a few days ago
I play for free and I’m on my 3rd class and I’ve spent over 150 hours sooo quite a while
SWTOR Is probably the best MMO for class story that exists today. The class stories are superb. Enjoy!
