While I really enjoyed KOTOR,
Derchlon — Wed, 06/03/2009 - 17:17While I really enjoyed KOTOR, if the guild decided to move to this new MMO that would be the end for me. I like WoW because its WoW, not just because its an MMO. And I definitely wouldn't play WoW without Downfall.
Ways to be able to beat wow by obtaining a different fan base
cromi — Wed, 06/03/2009 - 15:28I liked kotor on console. not sure how it would do in mmo.
People say it is going to be a competition for wow. Only if it can be done very well and keep a great player base throughout. It is generally in a diffferent overall mood than wow though and so it should do better than some other games because it doesn't rely on the dungeons and dragons fantasy type of game but off of Star Wars, of course so did Tabula Rasa and that didn't do anything. Of course I have yet to meet a person who played wow and didn't like star wars.
I think what publishers should be looking at now to compete with WoW, or Diablo, or even KOTOR if it is done well are real time shooting games done in mmo style. Like Battleground Europe which has a good following, Like COD, It would be extended long term battles with objectives, and teams. Just like the WoW pvp bg system, but it is done in a very good way, and i think that would end up attracting more people to an mmo than any other game because it is different, in a way, and it offers the action, and fast paced first person shooter along with the strat of any game, But on a very large objective scale.
World of Starcraft?
Desteran — Wed, 06/03/2009 - 16:57World of Starcraft?
Would pwn EVERYTHING. Dark

Desteran — Wed, 06/03/2009 - 11:31I was acturally a big fan of the KOTOR games. I am looking forward to this.
Age of Conan sucked, as far
Ewiges — Wed, 06/03/2009 - 11:35Age of Conan sucked, as far as Old Republic goes, it is still way too early to make any kind of decision. With that said, it was announced yesterday at e3 that there is going to be a Tom and Jerry MMO. Also blizzcon will announce Blizz's next gen MMO currently known as Project Hydra.
Screw all yall, Aion is
mav — Tue, 06/02/2009 - 18:18Screw all yall, Aion is where its at.
Its an MMO? Lame. Everyone
Derchlon — Tue, 06/02/2009 - 17:11Its an MMO? Lame. Everyone knows MMOs suck.
with the fact that all
Lunchbox — Tue, 06/02/2009 - 17:11with the fact that all dialogue is voice acted in this one, thats right no chats, it may be a while on this one tbh
Age of Conan is the best game
garreth — Tue, 06/02/2009 - 16:42Age of Conan is the best game ever made.
yeah most likely gonna switch
everstar — Tue, 06/02/2009 - 16:31yeah most likely gonna switch over when it comes out haha. no more wow! me, mnor and del found out about it like a month ago and it looks amazing
So what you're saying is that
Shihli — Tue, 06/02/2009 - 17:09So what you're saying is that you'll be taking about a 1-2 month break from WoW at that time?
Or perhaps, that the grass is, in fact, greener :P
i would hope to say greener
everstar — Tue, 06/02/2009 - 19:54i would hope to say greener
I would totally do KOTOR, it
Gares of War — Wed, 06/03/2009 - 12:51I would totally do KOTOR, it is Kentucky Green Grass. Sith Lords for the win.
I would do KotOR online, so
Shihli — Wed, 06/03/2009 - 13:16I would do KotOR online, so to speak, if the rest of the Downfall crew made the switch.
Because its bioware I expect
Xendu (not verified) — Wed, 06/03/2009 - 14:11Because its bioware I expect it to be of top quality, I know its there first MMO but these guys always deliver. Im going to buy it and then determine if its better than wow but no guaranteed switch. But if it is better ima switch forsure.
I know Bioware's quality, as
Shihli — Wed, 06/03/2009 - 14:24I know Bioware's quality, as I am a fan of the KotOR games.
However, having high-quality single player games does not mean you can make a high-quality mmo. See also: SquareEnix and Final Fantasy 11 Online.
When it peaked at its top playerbase (1.5 million players), WoW had already ballooned to 6million accounts. WoW has since doubled, while FFXI is dying out slowly and painfully.
Not saying that KotOR online will be bad, but I am just saying that people might not want to jump to conclusions about the game before it's been released. Nothing is quite as funny as when people quit WoW (or any game, really) for "the best game coming out soon" - only to see them come back and ask to be re-invited to the guild because it wasn't God's gift to gamers.
It happened to Warhammer Online, it happened to Age of Conan, and unless Bioware can deliver the same super-high quality of gaming in an MMO that they can in a turn-based Dungeons and Dragons-based game, it'll likely happen then, too.
You people are crazy. AION.

I personaly can't wait for
HBK — Wed, 06/03/2009 - 21:29I personaly can't wait for it. I am a hudge fan of Star Wars. I still till this day play SWG. A game I remember long ago kick WOW ass in game ratings and players till SWG took its hudge nerf and change what the game once was so unique too the MMO world. Now that Bio was rights too it I am sure it won't be a let down. WoW I feel will take a hudge lose too its clients since a hudge number of WoW clients were SWG players. Atleast oneday I will finally Lay too rest my Elder Jedi and move on :( The Memories will last forever as the old SWG was the greatest MMO ever made. I just hope KOTOR will live up too it.
I too loved old SWG. Once
Jayel — Wed, 06/03/2009 - 22:32I too loved old SWG. Once they changed everything in the game I just couldn't play anymore, though I did enjoy the air combat expac for a while.
I hope KOTOR ends up being a great game!!
