purifier Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 Damn! Of all the other planets, I wish they had added Alderaan in the old Kotor games. That would have been the right time too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LordOfTheFish Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 Looks great! We need Alderaan and more levels like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RogueJedi86 Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 God I love that snow, this game is looking 100x better than WoW even with the supposedly WoW-like cartoony style. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rinku Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 Yes!!! I love Alderaan, this has partially made up for their class flop. Love the concept art btw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alkonium Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 This should be good. After catching just a glimpse of it at the end of Episode III, I've always wanted to see more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tobias Reiper Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 Yea, that's awesome! Though I bet everyone on the bloody planet will be saying the war that's going on is the worst thing that could ever happen to their planet. I beg to differ.

DAWUSS Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 Lame backstory IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darthfergie Posted November 30, 2009 Share Posted November 30, 2009 yeah...kinda an odd backstory. Warring houses and such. I'd figured Alderaan for a peaceful planet so it's gonna be a little odd, but I think it'll be awesome fun to see the planet. Hopefully the integrate the some of the EU details about Alderaan and some of the earlier concept art. Like the rounded dwellings in the concept art has been more of a theme than the big gothic city they showed in a screenshot. That's just me being a nitpick. This was a healthy surprise after the recent telegraphed showing of the intelligence agent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrrtoken Posted November 30, 2009 Share Posted November 30, 2009 The backstory does fit some of the narrative in Taris' subplot in KotOR I, if memory serves me right, particularly. So, at least there is some canon consistency with a feuding bourgeoisie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hallucination Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 ^I think I'm missing what you're saying: in K1 Taris was an occupied planet, but Alderaan is going to be in a civil war. Also, it sounds more like a feuding aristocracy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RogueJedi86 Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 Plus there's already rumors that Taris will show up in TOR too, what with an in-game screenshot referring to reconstruction on Taris. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, it sounds more like a feuding aristocracy.I was referring to the mention of political tension in Alderaan in one of the bounty hunter quests within... Selven, I believe. Edit: Herewego Elijah Muhammad[/s] Wookieepedia"]The bounty office on Taris had a bounty on Selven for the assassination of the entire Ulgo family, possibly on behalf of the House of Organa. Selven had a reputation as the best assassin on Taris. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
