Destiny's way does give us good background on Vergere, but she's gone by the time of SW3.  Now, maybe one of the Caamasi...Elegos?

I'd say Mon Mothma, but she was in the Return of the Jedi.  We SHOULD be seeing her though, since she was a Senate leader around this time.  We've already seen Bail Organa. 

Damn, one of my favorite charcters too.

Star Wars is dead to me.  Fool me once, shame on you and so forth.  No sale here.

I did and I enjoyed it, despite it being fairly light for an RPG.  However, the difference is that George Lucas wasn't anywhere near it when they did it.  Also, given the radical differences in setting, it was almost like KOTOR was a non-Star Wars Star Wars game.  Both trilogies of Star Wars are ruined thanks to GL.  I don't care to touch either of them with a ten foot pole.


As an aside, as much as I liked KOTOR, the sequel smells like it could easily become the next Deus Ex 2.

The Star Spangled Banner bring hither,
 O're Columbia's true sons let it wave.
May the wreaths they have won never wither,
 Nor it's stars cease to shine on the brave.

How do you figure? Some of the best producers in RPG history are working on it. People from Obsidian (duh), Black Isle and Bioware (I think) are all there.

Since Bioware isn't involved in the KOTOR sequel,I don't expect much from it myself.

Kinda strange to not have the RPG masters doing the sequel.

Chris Avellone's lead designer on KOTOR2.

They'll need to put a bullet in me to keep me away from that game.

Bioware is not involved, nor is Black Isle, since it is closed.  The problem with KOTOR 2 is it has to live up to the original and so far, from the previews I've seen, there isn't much there that's new.  It looks more like an expansion pack than a sequel.  And in the fanatical hype and this has "disappointment" written all over it.

Bioware is busy working on Dragon Age and Jade Empire, but they recomended Obsidian and they seem to have some seriously talented and experienced people working on the game. I am looking foward to it, to say the least, as well as Republic Commando, which shows some promise.

Though, more to the point of the topic of this thread, Revenge of the Sith is fine. It works, in my opinion.

Don't forget Star Wars Battlefield. I hope its more like Joint Operations and less like BF1942.

Anyways,
I knew I was wrong with one of those companies. Why do I keep thinking Bioware is involved?
However I know for a FACT that people from Black Isle are employed by Obsidian. I wasn't implying that Black Isle was working as a group on it. (though I can dream right?)
