Darth Trayus

If money was the major issue, wouldn't it be better to make both a Kotor III and a MMO? It's certainly possible to have a continuation of Revan fighting the Sith and laying the foundations to defeat them for the MMO players three hundred odd years later. Not that I actually think Bioware or Lucas Arts would do something like that but just throwing that out there...

I doubt obsidian would have anything more to do with the franchise though I do agree that the second game pretty much built up towards an epic finale. We finally understand why Revan went "fell" and now we have two Jedi Knights that saved the galaxy. As the MMO takes place three hundred years later, the entire story line that built up the characters in the previous games crashed and burned. My opinion: make an MMO from the beginning and not after two kick *** games. Why bother with building such complex characters only to leave their stories untold and unfinished?

I could look at it that way.....but why would a sith lord take this quietly. I could always start with XNA studio club and try writing it myself after I get some experience.....but thats taking it rather far. I do have a life....even if it is plotting galatic domination..... But again, if someone comes across any article that confirms that SWTOR is replacing KOTOR III and not supplementing it please post the link so I can see for my own eyes who I need to force choke.........

"I'm glad you just admitted to being full of yourself, and arrogant. Not to emntion selfish. You want ALL the gory, and don't want to share it - not even with your 'friends'. You'd make a poor Jedi. Jedi shouldn't fall prey to such pride and arrogance - that was Anakin's downfall" ehem Darth.....Trayus.......D.A.R.T.H. Trayus. Darth T.R.A.Y.U.S. like beTRAYAL and TRAItor. Would I really make a jedi of any kind? p.s. I always did enjoy playing the dark side more. It was by far more amusing.... And while Bioware does indeed "do it for the money" it is a much more optimistic to think that they make games for the "greater good" and entertainment of all star wars and rpg gaming fans world wide.....the MMO effectively "wipes this pathetic illusion from the face of the galaxy..."

ok...now that I am somewhat calmer.........*laughs sarcastically*......has bioware or anyone actually confirmed that the single player rpg for the xbox is out of the question? The best thing I could find was that quote about SWTOR being Kotor 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and so on. So....does this mean that they ruled it out as an option or does it just mean that SWTOR is just some side chain in the KOTOR context to make money? I've been trying to desperately find the answer to this question ever since I heard this news because I am still desperately hanging on to the hope that they will still make KOTOR III for 360. So....does anyone know and if you do know, for good or bad, can you send me a link to the article that has some authoritative figure confirming it?

Well, Hello all! I'm new here...the noobie. I will probably be blamed for not continuing the current chain of thought but I joined for one reason.....TO VENT! MMO?????????? ARE YOU SERIOUS??????? I WAS LOOKING FOWARD TO THE BIGGEST RPG RELEASE FOR THE 360!!!! and then on my occasional check around the internet I come across this nonsense about THE OLD REPUBLIC MMO!???? It will not only be kotor 3 but "3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9," they said. I don't know. I'm feeling about ready to give em that number of PUNCHES! KOTOR I was awesome. KOTOR II could have been better but still acceptable. KOTOR III was supposed to be the big SHOWDOWN!!!! LIKE THE HALO TRILOGY! But it turns out now that it's just going to be a never ending war that will drag on and on for hundreds and hundreds of years in the star wars timeline without any of the main characters......sort of like my girlfriend but thats besides the point! I do not want to play as some droid of some nameless Jedi or sith! I wanted a good rpg where the storyline picks up form KOTOR II and centers around the character I'm playing. Not that I don't like mulitplayer games but COME ON! WHAT GIVES???? All in all, this was truly disappointing. I have no idea why bioware did this and for that matter I don't care. I do not like MMOs because they are all just a simple excuse for the fat *******s to make more money. I do not like this MMO even more because it tears a three hundred year gap into the storyline..... p.s even though it does get old after a while.....I admit that that there is just something really attractive about the "galaxy in your hands" bit. And this MMO where the galaxy is in you and your friend's hands.......that kind of takes away from the........well....I can't think of the right word for now.
