hopefully this does not mean that they are changing the format completely so you no longer control your party members, like in neverwinter nights where they just tag along and do their own thing. if it ends up like that then i doubt i'll even bother buying it as one of the things i like is being able to control more than one character.

At first i thought that would be awsome but now if they do that, it would just be one reason not to buy the game.

UPDATED! 27TH FEB 2006

Greetings

Well, guess what? I found more Kotor III rumor news on the LucasArts Forums (YAY about time) Look at this:

Quote:

The third chapter in LucasArts' RPG exploration of the Star Wars legacy.

NOTE: This game has not yet been announced or officially confirmed by the publisher. Exact plans for which platforms this title might release on are also unconfimed at this time. Unofficially, the game is expected to be one of three next-gen projects in the works at developer Obsidian Entertainment.

Death to all cliff-hangers

Also, he said he got it in his inbox. the last time I checked, Obsidian, LucasArts, and Bioware dont have a mass email list that I know of, other than the normal news that they have on the websites. I have checked.

So unless he can verify himself in some way as a rep of one of the above companies, I hope you dont mind if I dont get my hopes up. they havent started advertising it yet. I have a feeloing this means were are going to be waiting another year...

Or more, as there were rumours about the other two games long before they were released that could be verified, from what I remember. I knew about the first KotOR sionce news came out in 2001 of the project team beginning production.

I wont be surprised if it doesnt come out until 2007 or 2008, IMHO.

Hi

it's been a long time since I posted Kotor III new news buts here is some for you. Enjoy!

Quote:

Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic III

One of the most successful Star Wars games of all time is heading to the next generation courtesy of Obsidian. The third installment of the series will expand on the somewhat lackluster second title and once again be exclusive to Microsoft. We've heard that Bioware has had very little involvement with the third title, but Obsidian has been clearly instructed to take their time and pump out a game that rivals the original in quality.

We don't expect Knights III to make an appearance at E3 2006, but the holiday season should bring around news on the next generation title. Expect it to pick up many years after Knights II with an entirely new cast of characters and even more force powers. Shifting your character between light and dark will also have a much more significant impact on the game.

Chu, are you hitting on her? Run while you still can...

Seriously though, SYM is great, and we are always looking for more people to spam with...

You do seem to know your stuff, I hope the stuff is true - especially the better production values...

Hate to be the ass, but, as thats my official role here:
None of this has really ben confirmed, this is all just general conjecture by a bunch of people like us trying to please everyone until some sort of official anouncement is made. That being said:

w00t, its a bout time someone said something.

RBitG · #86 (**permalink**) 03-15-2006, 08:30 PM

Bastard. You've just ruined my day.

Hill-Shatar · #87 (**permalink**) 03-15-2006, 08:45 PM

Considering the title of the link and the first line of text under being 'They're not official yet, but we know deep down we're going to be seeing them sooner or later', it could have been assumed as such. Otherwise, it does make sense that they would go to an era where there are actual jedi...

Otherwise, come now, the thread is all about Optimism, and continuing thanks to BS for contributing as much as she is.

Darth Mason · #88 (**permalink**) 03-16-2006, 09:58 AM

Yes it is a really good piece of digging but i suppose nothings been confirmed yet which is a bit annoying. I would prefer it if LA came out and said it was in production but it will take this long or whatever. At least that way we'd have some closure. I like the idea about it taking place many years in the future - although it might not answer the questions from the previous games (or it could who knows) but it gives them a lot of possibilities - as Hill said maybe taking place in an era with actual Jedi or when Jedi aren't hated.

Fierce · #89 (**permalink**) 03-16-2006, 01:10 PM

What do you mean "actual Jedi"?? I don't see diffrence between old Republic Jedi and Jedi from Skywalker's time.

Darth Mason · #90 (**permalink**) 03-17-2006, 09:24 AM

hmm yes your right my bad. Ok then let me rephrase that - i would like to see some jedi with the sort of new age teaching like some of yoda style teaching. Also maybe meet masters from the council on missions to certain planets you visit and you have to aid them or vice versa. I'm also lookin forward to seeing what the significance of the planets is ... ie the star maps n the lost jedi.
