I hope to God that they're not striving too far away from the original games. I mean, I would love some additional ability to move around (can't look up and down, can't jump, such things). Other from that I think it'll be great. Please make Selkath a playable race! _________________ Be kind to dragons, for you are crunchy and go well with ketchup.

Ugh, why can't they just do what most people want, and have been asking for for years, and make a conclusion to the previous games? There are already so many MMOs, and twice as many coming out, not to mention the free ones offered on the net as well. Edit: And not to mention yet MORE 15+ dollar payments per month in general. _________________

Well, if I remember it correctly they stated that the MMO would at the same time be a KotOR III, and continue the storyline. But we'll see how that goes. _________________ Be kind to dragons, for you are crunchy and go well with ketchup.

Dork of Mordork Jedi Council Member Joined: 12 Dec 2005 Posts: 10507 Location: Lemoore, CA Well the fact that it's going to be an MMO pretty much rules it out for me. I can't play MMOs right now for select reasons, and making it an MMO, in my opinion takes too far away from the original games. I want an RPG that I can play alone and not have to worry about "y werent u on yesterday? we had a guild meeting lol" and the like. MMOs are too much hassle for people who can't spare the time, don't want the addiction and or can't afford the payments/have better things to blow 15+ a month on. Don't get me wrong, I love MMOs, and if I could, I'd play a select few, provided I don't end up wasting my life and money away on it. But not for KotOR... Like I think Scion said before, when have MMOs ever had a steady and good STORY, like an RPG or even a FPS has had, and can have? MMOs have had good plots, but not very strong stories. That's not what MMOs aim for, and if you've truly played your fair share of MMOs, you'll know that that's true. _________________

There's several other games like them currently in development. So did tabula Rasa, all of those MMO's are dead however, showing they didn't have true staying power, and of course it's being worked on, an MMO with 'twitch combat' will surpass all others, doesn't mean it will work out right. A recently announced Sony game horribly title MAG is a tactical shooter promising 256 players online at once and all it is getting is skepticism (I don't believe it could be done in an effective manner, not without gimping the game to oblivion).  That's only 256, and it seems impossible.  Thousands?   I like Bioware, and have faith in them, but 8-player co-op from a decade ago is the last experience they have had with any sort of online, and if you look at the games they have made in the past 8 years (KOTOR, Jade Empire, Mass Effect, helped on NWN 2), only one has any sort of online and all are too story and choice orientated, something completely lost in an MMO. _________________

I'm just seriously mad about this thing.  I would have LOVED a 360/PS3 or whatever the hell comes out next good ole' RPG.  Following Revan, or the Exile, or some new guy.  But unless they really manage to pull this off brilliantly, it's just going to suck. _________________

Honestly, that's one of, if not the main reason they're making it an MMO. The flashy 15+ dollars per player per month is so good for them. Who cares if it's not what we've been asking for for years, we're a big company, we do what we want.   _________________
