Darth Avlectus Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 Maybe a better make of a fighter game, something on par with soul cal, to replace that abominable Masters of Teras Kasi. I think it was a good concept but a baaaaaaaaad execution. Not holding my breath on that one, though. Much to my surprise it is a decent job. Or so it seems. Could just be a 'bitch' job. Who knows anymore what a job title really means? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabretooth Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 I like how every thread with 'LucasArts' in its title turns into a dream game wishlist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarthParametric Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 I like how every thread with 'LucasArts' in its title turns into a dream game wishlist.It's because pretty much every internal developed game they have released in the last 10 or so years has been crap, so people hold no hope for any new announcement, instead wishing for what could have been. Pointless of course, but a man can dream as they say, a man can dream. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Master_Lin Posted August 30, 2011 Share Posted August 30, 2011 Since Bioware is fully busy with its bullcrap MMO for kids, I merely think it's a KOTOR 3 game. but don't taky my words as they come, I secretly hope for it. Anyways, with the very great message that Lucas said some times ago, stating that it's time for a young director to take the reins ( while he was saying that he's off with the prequels ), maybe we should see some fan-made star wars movie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarthParametric Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 Lol. TOR is not for kids (kids have no money), it's just like every other game Bioware make now - for as wide an audience as they can possibly get. If you are some sort of hardcore MMO player, TOR is not your game (and never was). Perhaps GW2 might be more to your taste. As for K3, that is never going to happen. And concerning the handing over of the reins, don't assume that bodes any better than a SW under the yoke of Lucas. Dave Filoni is the heir apparent (or one of them anyway), and if Clone Wars is anything to go by then the future of SW is just as grim as the present.

Taak Farst Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 Lol. TOR is not for kids (kids have no money), but it IS for kids with parents who will be suckered into buying their children a game that includes a monthly subscription fee. Oh the tears but ultimate desire to be loved by your kids. Oh dear god. fix'd I agree with you, though, DP, because it feels to me like they are giving themselves a checklist, which I hate in games. You know. Add guns, kay that's the CoD lovers done. Add life or death (lolnotrly) decisions, so that's the roleplayers happy. When you kill an enemy and their guts spew out, a unicorn will also pop out. That's the six year old girls covered. Hell yes, this game is in the bag!!

Master_Lin Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 Totally agree with Taak, yes it is made for a large audience but it's also for making good money with Lucas' universe. Edit : @Lynk : Local villain not serious ? edit 2 : I wonder what could happen if someone's trying to make a kotor game on a totally different game engine such as UDK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lynk Former Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 Firstly... Taak, I think your post gave me cancer... @ Master_Lin: So basically all of the hate for TOR is because it's not elitist enough?.................. great. I know I'm all postin' in a troll thread and all but... Video games are being made for a companies profit? SAY IT ISN'T SO! They should only make video games as a high art form and cater to only the most niche audience with the highest knowledge in Star Wars lore. Video games being made for a larger audience to make said money? SAY IT ISN'T SO! They should lose millions with every game they make in the name of art! I feel like that folks who complain about TOR can't give a valid reason why it's a terrible game and simply repeat "it's not KotOR 3" over and over again... I mean hey, I bitched about TOR when it was first announced and wanted KotOR 3 as well... but I got over it for a few reasons... one of which being the fact that I warmed up to TOR over time and the other being that it's just really sad to constantly bitch about the same thing over and over and over and over and over and over.................. Hooray. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master_Lin Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 That wasn't the way I meant it be to be understood. Nonetheless, I was thinking that if TOR is being made, it's because, with their aim for the game to be playable by a large audience, they made it less complete than I would like it to be . I thought TOR would be just a few years later after KOTOR TSL, not 300 years later ! With this game they're implementing a new "cannon "' if you will, We couldn't know what had happened to Revan while he was going to the unknown worlds after he'd became the savior of the Republic... Otherwise I'm not whining about TOR, it's a good game, but not the game I was expecting ( storytelling speaking ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthParametric Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 I think TOR will probably turn out to be complete ass, but I still caved and pre-ordered the freaking thing anyway. Even with the non-US/European regional lockout slap in the face. I guess we'll see how that turns out in a few months. As for the whole "games are a business" thing, I don't think anyone ever disputed that. I run my own business, so I can't fault them for making decisions primarily focused on expanding their target demographic to make an extra quid, even if it is at the expense of their existing customer base. As a consumer though, that doesn't mean I have to like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master_Lin Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 Well, actually games are not made wit a " base " ( I'm speaking of the very good studios, not the hunger-of-money ), They're made with a story, and emotions to be spread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lynk Former Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 @ Master_Lin: Probably best to critique the story when the game actually comes out... Also, not all games HAVE a story to begin with or rely on a story-centric mentality or any emotion. Those developers making games that aren't story-centric aren't automatically money-hungry, they're just making different types of games. In the case of TOR and BioWare, they obviously have a plan but at this point every single one of us are just speculating and none of us can't know for sure what TOR has until the game is released and everyone has had a chance to experience it.

DarthParametric Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 Speaking of experiencing it, the Game Testing Weekends start this week. Apparently they are going to try and cycle through as many of the beta signups (~1.5 mil) as they can over the next month or so. If people are interested in getting a look, maybe roll the dice and sign up. Although I presume their regional snobbery still stands, so chances are there will be no beta love for me.

Lynk Former Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 @ DP: I know what you mean XD I feel so unloved. Of course after awhile I've cooled down from my original reaction and whatever... I have the CE preordered through GameStop so whatever... probably wouldn't make a difference anyway if Australia was included since other companies like Blizzard simply set up servers in the US and name them the Australian servers... it's not like they actually bother to set up server IN Australia to begin with.

DarthParametric Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 It was never the server location, as I doubt they will ever put up local servers given the running costs. It just annoys the hell out of me that when they decided to limit the launch population the primary method they chose was to exclude half the world. I have no problem with limiting the number of pre-orders and the supply of copies for a period after launch, but they should have done it globally. It's a similar thing to that stupid auction thing they ran a year or so ago on the Social site. It was a competition for all their fans, but only if they lived in North America. Everyone else were apparently just non-entities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
