How is that EA has the license and the studio that started it and refuse to give us what we want. kotor 1 and 2 are the only star wars games I ever cared to play.

There's a huge demand for it. I don't want to settle for a remake even though I think I would bite, but I want a modern Kotor3 and EA refuse to make games people want.

PS. They need to make another Def Jam too, but not like Icon.

Makes too much sense.

When EA got the license Bioware was finishing up Inquisition and already making what would become Anthem and Andromeda. They could have one in dev now but obviously the studio is in a bad place., and already deep into Dragon Age 4. I have no idea how their teams are structured anymore.


Also: Not sure Disney wants to approve anything that doesn't fit into their new cannon and Kotor isn't fully canon.

You don't want today's BioWare and today's Disney continuing that series.

I still have faith in Bioware

The company that made Kotor 1 exists in name only. Obsidian would do a better job if given the chance.

 

[Rean no Kiseki]

Make it an action RPG akin to SW:JFO and I'll be game, but you need to remember thay the guys who wrote the story and dialogue of KOTOR 1&2 are looooooooooong gone from both Bioware and Obsidian.

That bold bit hurts... I worked on that game. But I know exactly what you are saying. The fighting was horrible. But at least the UI was pleasing, the story was entertaining and the women were FINE!!!

I think the dream of KOTOR3 died when SWTOR failed. Now I wouldn't even trust them to try.

BioWare and Obsidian tried pitching it many times but were unsuccessful. Sounds like it would have been interesting though.

Obsidian’s Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic 3 was about battling ancient, monstrous Sith lords

Once work wrapped on KoTOR 2, Obsidian was ready to make a third game in the acclaimed RPG series. Unfortunately, it ne…

Funny that you mention the series as I finished my third playthrough of the first game recently. It still holds up pretty well for an RPG.

Unfortunately without the fun gameplay, Icon destroyed the franchise. Everything that was loved from the original games were lost, and we were given a pretty shell. I was so heart broken how the game turned out.

Because the expanded universe isn't canon to Disney.

 

[MaestroMike]

Played and beat KOTOR I & II on Xbox and really enjoyed them. Would've definitely purchased the third one. Haven't played any other Star Wars game since.

 

[Grand Theft Scratchy]

Even if the expanded universe was canon, it's been more than 15 years since KotOR II released. They would have to re-release the first two games first for new players to familiarize themselves with the story.

 

[Batiman]

I think we’ll get another one eventually

 

[lastmessiah]

I'd rather see a Star Trek RPG, a lot of potential there.

Star Wars needs to be put to rest already.

 

[jakinov]

They have finite studios and finite money that they are willing to spend. Even though the game does have a cult following, they've effectively cancelled franchises they fully own (i.e. don't have to pay royalties) for selling more than KOTOR has.

 

[Slings and Arrows]

Bioware to be put up for sale.

 

[LordCBH]

Bioware is no longer capable of making great games like KOTOR, Baldur’s Gate, and DA: Origins. EA also doesn’t believe that a 30-40 hour RPG with bo microtransactions or multiplayer is worth making. I fully expect Drsgon Age 4 to be riddled with monetization.

 

[Werewolf Jones]

Kinda glad. The first game was mid and the second game was so amazing that it can never be topped.
