alanschu Posted February 8, 2006 Posted February 8, 2006 That would make sense, given that the first two KOTOR games were made in house. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> yes, they were PRODUCED in-house. I'm talking about DEVELOPED and produced and with an LA employee writing the storyline. I'm not saying it should happen. I'm just saying that I believe a number of LA employees are pushing for that and that is one reason we haven't heard anything. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Err, couldn't you say that about any outsourced project?
Plano Skywalker Posted February 8, 2006 Posted February 8, 2006 Err, couldn't you say that about any outsourced project? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> yes, that is generally all they have been doing of late (and have had some hits to be sure). but they used to DEVELOP games as well....KOTOR 3 was going to be a totally in-house project according to the (well-founded) rumors. but it got cancelled. so, while there is still a desire to produce KOTOR 3, I think a number of LA people would like to develop it as well. why do I think this? the same reason the publisher abandoned (for the longest time, anyway) any semblance of post-production support for KOTOR 2.
alanschu Posted February 8, 2006 Posted February 8, 2006 So why would they want to develop it in house? I'm not sure if the fact that they didn't provide much post-production support as being very solid evidence that they would want to develop it in house.
Gabrielle Posted February 8, 2006 Posted February 8, 2006 Makes the fans ANGRY! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> angry like this: ... but maybe more like this: :angry: <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Blood red angry.
Plano Skywalker Posted February 9, 2006 Posted February 9, 2006 So why would they want to develop it in house? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> it is essentially the flagship title of the franchise. Battlefront II might sell better but that is really just a hack of Battlefield II and will never be done in-house. a story-focused RPG like KOTOR is exactly the kind of thing that SW groupies would want to be involved in. and I think it safe to say that a good number of LA people are SW groupies. I'm not sure if the fact that they didn't provide much post-production support as being very solid evidence that they would want to develop it in house. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> if KOTOR 2 is seen as a failure, then LA people can say "see, we told you so...BioWare doesn't do licensed projects and Obsidian is too small a company to handle it...bring it in-house". anyway, I think I am going to bow out of this debate as the only way I can make my point is to troll another company, which is against the rules.
Darth_Zonos Posted February 9, 2006 Posted February 9, 2006 i think as long as they stick to the plot the KOTOR 2 layed out any company will do fine
Plano Skywalker Posted February 9, 2006 Posted February 9, 2006 i think as long as they stick to the plot the KOTOR 2 layed out any company will do fine <{POST_SNAPBACK}> good point...I mean, it's not like KOTOR 2 was a beacon of game balance or anything...
Darth_Zonos Posted February 9, 2006 Posted February 9, 2006 well, if some fat sweatly bald guy in his forties somhow gets control of makeing it he mite shift the games plot so it doesnt really follow the others or he mite be biast to the story and do somthing crazy to it. i personaly think they sould get GL to write it i mean he doesnt have anything better to do and in the SW universe what he says goes
Plano Skywalker Posted February 9, 2006 Posted February 9, 2006 i personaly think they sould get GL to write it i mean he doesnt have anything better to do and in the SW universe what he says goes <{POST_SNAPBACK}> you know, I have heard rumors that he is involved in it but, who knows? but, I agree, why not? the fact that they have Dark Horse writting official continuity in this era shows that they are in this for the long haul, I think.
Darth_Zonos Posted February 9, 2006 Posted February 9, 2006 well i think that is its in the SW past people writing there way is less hazordes as if they write about the future
SteveThaiBinh Posted February 9, 2006 Posted February 9, 2006 i personaly think they sould get GL to write it i mean he doesnt have anything better to do and in the SW universe what he says goes <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yes, and the less said the better. :ph34r: Isn't Lucas working on a TV series of Star Wars? Haven't heard anything about that in a long long time. "An electric puddle is not what I need right now." (Nina Kalenkov)
Dyan Posted February 9, 2006 Posted February 9, 2006 Wonderful. If GL writes K3, then we can expect it to turn out like Episodes 1, 2 & 3. *sigh* HK47: Commentary: It is not possible to destroy the master. It is suggested that you run while my blasters warm, meatbags. Bastila to Revan: You are easily the vainest, most arrogant man I have ever met! Canderous to Bastila: Insults? Maybe if your master had trained your lightsaber to be as quick as your tongue you could have escaped those Vulkars, you spoiled little Jedi princess!
Gabrielle Posted February 9, 2006 Posted February 9, 2006 Wonderful. If GL writes K3, then we can expect it to turn out like Episodes 1, 2 & 3. *sigh* <{POST_SNAPBACK}> LOL So true.
Gabrielle Posted February 9, 2006 Posted February 9, 2006 Isn't Lucas working on a TV series of Star Wars? Haven't heard anything about that in a long long time. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> The horror he would unleash if he did do this.
Darth_Zonos Posted February 9, 2006 Posted February 9, 2006 horror? if he did he would kill out star trek once and for all
SteveThaiBinh Posted February 9, 2006 Posted February 9, 2006 horror? if he did he would kill out star trek once and for all <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Hasn't that already happened? US TV series are written by large teams of writers, so presumably Lucas would delegate some tasks like, oh, let me see, maybe the dialogue, to someone else. Or better still, act only as producer.

Darth_Zonos Posted February 9, 2006 Posted February 9, 2006 i would love that. i wonder what the show would be about tho
DarthMethos Posted February 9, 2006 Posted February 9, 2006 Star Wars TV? That would be intresting. What is the premise? Does anyone know?
moreKOTORplz Posted February 9, 2006 Posted February 9, 2006 don't forget the indiana jones project, GL is in on that.
Darth_Zonos Posted February 9, 2006 Posted February 9, 2006 i wish i did. i hope it focas on jedi stuff and not smugglers and stuff like that
DarthMethos Posted February 9, 2006 Posted February 9, 2006 i wish i did. i hope it focas on jedi stuff and not smugglers and stuff like that <{POST_SNAPBACK}> How about a Boba Fett series? A series about a female Jedi?
moreKOTORplz Posted February 9, 2006 Posted February 9, 2006 the star wars TV series is suppost to be set during ep 3 and ep 4 era, it also is suppost to be non-main character related.
