Now I am a big KOTOR fan. I have beaten both games, and I have played through the 2nd one (which is my favorite) just about 5 times. And I am still playing these games. The whole reason I first got into it was for the stoyline. At the time when I first played KOTOR 1, i didn't know what a RPG was, or what it even stood for. But I found the Storyline amazing, and Revan became one of my favorite Star Wars characters easy. The 2nd game was just as good. Though I admit I was alittle disappointed you didn't get to find Revan, and the relationships you could have in game where alittle crappy (I wanted a relationship with Mira, but she turns you down. **** But anyways. The KOTOR 3 storyline completely kills that of the first and second games. 300 years after? No metion of Revan or the exile? And an MMO? First off, i don't think we need another Star Wars Galaxies. I might be a big Star Wars fan, but Star Wars Galaxies wasn't even worth puking on. Second, The whole reason for these games was to reviel the story of Revan and the Exile, not completely kill it. Bioware did great with the first game, and obsidian did even better. But that fact that Lucas Arts is lettign Bioware completely kill the stoyline like this is stupid. The main characters of both games, does anyone know what happned to them? No. Making this game 300 years fater is basically saying "The Exile and Revan both died. Game over. Now go hop in your little x-wing and fly around the galaxy!". I want something to do with Revan, and not a quest titled 'Go find Revan's tomb'. Revan was the reason behind BOTH KOTORs. KOTOR 1 was about Revan's redepmtion and then saving/dooming the galaxy. KOTOR 2 was about finding out what happned to Revan and then at the end (atleast if your lightside) Going after Revan. And that was the last we ever saw of both those characters, Revan and the Exile. At this point, the only way I think BioWare could redeem themselves for killing the storyline is if you have to unfreeze both Revan and the Exile from carbonite. Now let me get on the topic of the MMO part.
I don't know about the rest of you guys. But I was all excited when I first played Star Wars Galaxies. I was like "Sweet, wookiee jedi!" But that excitment went away rather quicky. You can't find any good weps, you can only pilot ships that you have the level to (where the hell is the pilot level anyways?) and you have noobs running around spawing killing and trying to real world trade. the pople though that wouldn't talk to you were the most annoying. If your going to leave your character up but going to let them get exp while your away, atleast have a message saying "Sorry Im away from keyboard right now." I think that KOTOR was better as a 1 player RPG. NPCs always talk to you. You can get beastly upgrades so that you can take the crappiest wep and turn into something good. Sure, alittle extra help trying to defeat aboos would be nice. But as long as you focus on getting master flurry and Storm and Master Crit, and you upgrade your lightsaber good, you have nothing to worry about.
So three words for you: DO NOT WANT! REPEAT! DO NOT WANT!
atleast lets hope theres no fee for this game.
