yah i want to know if we can play through the game as something other than an alien for the main character

Well, KotOR 2 wasn't officialy announced, so we can't really say anything. But there certanly will be a KotOR 2 in the future (Only when). Maybe in those magazines will be something more. But as Stanley Woo says: We have no plans to develop a sequel or a prequel to KotOR at this time. Let's just hope he's lying.

[Com Raven]

Oh no, Stan is very much saying the truth [or at least one version of it]: BioWare isn't developing a sequel. Obsidian is. And we'll all see it in about a month's time...

[Floppythegod]

Yeah well, but for now there are only rumors *sigh*. Some say only obsidian is makin' it, some say obsidian and bioware are makin' it.

 

 

Maybe in that magazine will be nothing more than: Rumors are gathering, as they say obsidian is makin' a sequel to KotOR.

 

 

 

Look, time will tell.

Nope, not just a rumour...

is obsidian a reliable company or do you think they'll screw it up?

[Com Raven]

Obsidian is mainly made up for former Black Isle Studios guys, and is headed by former BIS chief Feargus Urquehardt.

 

These guys previously created:

 

all 4 Fallout games

all the titles in the Icewind Dale series

Planescape Torment

Lionheart

Baldur's Gate Dark Alliance II

 

Sounds like an awesome backlist to me, with a nice mix of combat and rpg-heavy titles

I don't think they'll really screw it up, but I do have my worries.

I'm afraid they might change the game too radically.

 

Here's the deal. If you make a sequel exactlty like the original, it's boring and you piss gamers off. If you change it too much, then it's weird and you piss gamers off. You gotta hit it right in the middle.

[Com Raven]

My guess is that they'll keep the basic framework, with all the controls and basic gameplay elements, and more concentrate on changing the subleties.

 

Icewind Dale II looked very similar to the first one, but just about everything under the good got some nice improvements and changes
