Stop crying. It isn't happening. Deal with it.
Personally, I think the Jedi Knight story was the best piece of writing to come out of BioWare.
Oh fuck off, you know there's a sizable amount of people who wanted a proper sequel to KotOR rather than what we all got with SWToR.

This is probably true. From a Mass Effect fan.

So is this canon or non-canon?
Is the Emperor of the Eternal Throne a spoiler from the new movies?
Or just made up for the game?

Complaining about KotOR 3 at this point is tantamount to portbegging.
Cool, this isn't the thread for that so take it somewhere else. No one cares what game you wanted.
Looks really good(LOL at the KotOR3 people) but I'm not sure I can continue with the game unless there are some major QoL improvements.
Namely class balance, bloated hotbars and group finder.
The other day I was sitting in the group finder for a while as a tank (Assassin) looking at the 30 some skills on my hotbars and I was thinking "Why do I have 3 PBAoEs?"

I don't see how shitting up this thread's going to change that.
Anyway, interested in the lore behind this Empire of Zakuul...

it's not canon.
swtor is an exception as it is still continued but not officially part of the new canon
Great
But its been like 3 years now. 3 years of people shitting up every single SWTOR thread with the KOTOR stuff.
Kind of interested in the fact that the Emperor of Zakuul doesn't look like a force user himself

Oh man this must be KOTOR 3 just by another name! *reads press release*
*sigh* its never happening is it? might have to relent and see if a MMORPG is a poor substitute for me

I actually prefer to pay a subscription for an MMO because I realize it's that consistent money that gives the people the jobs to make great content reliably without sacrificing workers on non crucial content. The problem for me with pretty much all MMO's is just the lack of focus on cooperative PVE content, and challenging content at that. "F2P" and that kind of content just don't seem to mesh very well. So I guess the only reason to be a sub would be if you're a hardcore PVP player? Or have they really started working on Operations and the like again?
I love this. TOR fans telling KOTOR fans to fuck off and "just deal with it".
I accepted a long time ago that KOTOR 3 is never happening. But don't shove TOR down my throat as "KOTOR 3" and tell me that this is the sequel I've been waiting for. It's not, and it never will be. I wouldn't have even cared if Bioware had made TOR completely separate from the KOTOR series and done their own thing, but they insisted on dragging KOTOR characters into the story and completing butchering them so they could claim this game was "KOTOR 3".
It's not just that Bioware gave us a game no one wanted, its the fact that Bioware killed the future of another game to do so. Sorry, but I think us old crotchety KOTOR fans are allowed to be salty about that. I'm glad people enjoy SW:TOR. But don't tell me to "just deal with it."
Not a bad idea, honestly.
Is there a "KOTOR OT: We're all still salty" thread, though? Because I'll head there in a heartbeat. Then we can all wallow in our despair together.
Lol fuck outta here.
If you are going to come into a SWTOR thread to talk about irrelevant information then yes, we are going to tell you to deal with it. Simple concept really.

actually it's the other way round, in the last year we got more PVE content than PVP content.
I have to say that bioware listens to the players, though. they asked about starfighter pvp and they got starfighter pvp, they asked about single player story content and after a lot of denying and saying it is not really worthwhile content for an MMO (which is not untrue) we finally got it, you can blame them for a lot, but they definitely listen.
Doesn't mean you have to come into a TOR thread crying about it as usual on this site.
Yeah, PVP has been weirdly abandoned in SWTOR
Not that I mind, arena PVP in MMOs is always boring and the engine can't handle world PVP but you would think they would throw the PVPers some bones now and then

IGN just showed the extended trailer and wow
Might as well accept it, TOR is KOTOR 3, it wraps the Revan, Bastila plotline, same for everything else, there's also the Revan novel that ties Kotor 1, 2 with TOR. They're not going to throw away years of work and established lore to make Kotor 3. I would've killed for Kotor 3 but time to accept it and play TOR Jedi knight quest line which is for all intents and purposes the continuation of Kotor.
My only wish is that when the time comes to pull the plug from the TOR servers, they release the whole game offline or allow someone else to do it or to emulate servers. The MMO aspect of the game is generic but the story and quests are great and should be archived and made replayable,

That twist in the trailer tho.
Does it actually have to be called KoTOR3 for you?

Maybe he's a void in the force like the exile was. He'd be able to totally fuck up Vitate then.
Also the canon or not thing is kind of irrelevant, when KOTOR was canon did you ever think Revan would pop up in the movies? There's a reason there's like 3 milleniums separating this from the original trilogy.
It sounds like they're rebooting the story, which is awesome and very ballsy.
It honestly looks like its being made more KOTOR 3 style now than ever before. Empire and Republic seemingly wiped out. You are The "outlander" who gets to build up a team with new and old companions and decide the destiny of the galaxy and unlike the prior games where you were just some type of force user you can now at least be other classes.
Yep! SO HYPE. They need to get the word out like this!

They had such a good setup with the original story though, nothing was more disappointing than
when you killed Malgus. They really built him up and then you killed him with like the very first instance at 50.
It was obvious there was more plans for him that they dropped at some point. There was a reason you could only beat him if you threw him down a pit and they must have given up on whatever the idea was when they went back and "nerfed" the fight to make it so he would just die like normal.

It was so weird, he was an interesting character, he had a book, marketing focus and everything. I think they might try to redo those plans with this new character.
It has to not be an MMO and then maybe we'll talk.
