Hey guys, this was just added to IGN literally a few seconds ago. I haven't watched them yet. Please state your honest opinions about what you see. :D

http://media.pc.ign.com/media/816/816935/vids_1.html

(it is split up in 4 parts)

Edit: To clear things up just incase people did not pay attention, this is not the final build of the game. If you don't like a animation or anything else realize that they may change to be up to Bioware standards.

MMORPG-- I despise most of them, so chances are that I will rather replay kotor 1 and 2 for about 30 times before ever thinking of playing the mmo version.

I can't say as I do not know who you are. If you were a RPG addict and you just found out about the Star Wars RPG series then I suppose you should, even though you can buy them for a low price.

I haven't finished watching but I lold when the Smuggler kicked the guy in the groin and ended him with a headshot. That is classy

I see that part 3 requires you to put your age. I wonder why. Oh well, I am about to find out.

I don't like it either, reminds me too much of Cartoon Network's Star Wars the Clone Wars. Personally I would have liked a more mature ton for this game.

drop the "art style" which is code for keeping the graphics simple so as many PC's as possible can play the game, make it single player with co-op options and then make it multiplat and we can talk, I just think that kotor as a franchise does not suit the mmo style and I can't help but feel this game is going to end up a jack of all trades but master of none.

Looks great, but the new WOW expansion changes the game so much it's almost a new game, they should make sure that this game as a bug free, good launch and make sure content is done properly and only then will the game be successful.

Lucas Arts confirmed it. They are holding their tongue on what it will be like right now. Bioware said after all of the "cons" like this and PAX that they will release a flood of info on the game. I wanted to see some Trooper footage, but I guess they are not ready to show it yet.

Delete your message if your friend gets found out that he told you anything he will be fired. I have a few friends that work on games and sometimes know stuff. But you never ever talk about it.

EVOLV3

the way i see it ...is that they did that art style because they wanted to achieve something similar to world of warcraft. Having these types of graphics will let people with low end gaming computers be able to play it.....thus populating the game. Thats what everquest 2's biggest mistake was....they shouldnt have made a game that required an insane rig just to play it on medium. I mean the graphics in everquest 2 are phenomenal but its not needed in a MMORPG.

That is one of the two reasons. The other is so that the graphics have a "lasting appeal". Look at SWG and you'll know what I mean. It went for realism and it looks like crap now. Games with "stylized" looks like TF2 and this will age well.

I have been reading a lot about Star Trek. It's going to be very hard for Bioware to top it based off this video. It could easily be one of the best MMO's if it is half of what I have read.

A multiplayer KOTOR sounds like my favorite game ever, so this might possibly be my most hyped game. And Bioware rarely dissapoints.

Most of the comments here are bad. Why? This game is on the top of my "Be hyped for a game" list. I'm not a fan of MMO's either but that won't stop me from playing what could possibly end up being the best Star Wars game of all time. The storyline so far looks amazing and the poor art style is probably so you don't need an amazing gaming PC. I know I'll be playing as a sith. Who wouldn't?

I'm just hoping my laptop can handle it. I'm not much of a PC gamer so I don't have a gaming PC. Like I said I think that is why it isn't a realistic art style,so you don't need a gaming PC.

I dont know about this. It looks like its for the casual gamer. Just cotton candy for the masses trying steal players from wow. I miss the old school SWG.

Some of those draw distances looked pretty narly though. I dunno, WoW doesnt look like much of a hog but can definitely bog lower end PCs down with just the sheer amount of crap going on.

This looks like the MMO for me. I was a big fan of KOTOR and KOTOR 2 and I know for a fact this will be a game I play. All I need to do now is get a good enough PC to run. This and Final Fantasy XIV are probably the only MMOs I am going to play for a long time.

Its a fairly early build of the game...expect the character design to be different in the finished product, including visual enchancements (technically and artistically)

lol...really? Their uniforms look almost exactly like the the ones that the clone troopers wear. I wouldnt know though because I know NOTHING about the old republic.
