Not only is game set in the KOTOR star wars universe, it is also Bioware game. I have yet to be disappointed in any game Bioware has crafted and I have played and enjoyed every one of their PC based titles. I will keep following the development of this game.

Why do dev teams feel the need to make MMO's in cartoon style instead of "real" graphics? If they'd kept the same style of graphics as in the KOTOR series it would have been great but they've shoved some crappy cartoony style models in there as if its a spin off from that rubbish Clone Wars cartoon show.

I mean COM'ON! That lightsaber hilt is like three times the size I should be. I was really looking forward to this but I can't help but think that its going to look awful if they're making the models all like this... it will be like WoW in space :damn::damn::damn::damn:.

I really hope I'm wrong and that was just an old model that they've changed since that shot was taken, but I won't hold my breath. Star Trek Online has followed a similar graphics style and it looks pretty bad. I know lower graphics requirements usually mean higher subscriptions due to lower system specs, but lets be honest they could have good models like we saw in the original KOTOR games instead of this c**p and still had moderately low systems requirements.

I seriously doubt it's gonne look like that...

BTW, by 'rubbish Clone Wars cartoon' are you referring to the original one or the new CGI one? Because the original one was great IMO (Much better than the prequel trilogy, at least)

The CGI one, I've always thought that Star Wars just doesn't suit a cartoon presentation... and I will be really disappointed if its put forward like that.

Just watched the trailer again, its made of win lol :up:.

:woot:

Funny this should pop up now.

I just got KOTOR (agin) recently when steam put it up for 9.99 us.

Had a hellua time getting it going on my pc (see long thread in hardware section).

But this was my second time through it, originally on Xbox.

Probably the best CRPG ever produced in spite of the bugs. HK47 still makes me laugh.

I skipped KOTOR2 I will leave it at that.

The trailer was awsome and that flame throwing droid ! Me wants but...

Isnt this new one an MMORPG?

If so thats a no sale for me.

I thought this would be another KOTOR but it seems to be just an online PvP game. Too bad. Looked good. :(
