Nope. Not any time soon, at least. lord-of-shadow Send a noteboard - 09/02/2011 06:27:06 PM
Especially with Bioware devs making statements like (exact wording from one of the designers) this one:

'Kotor 3? Yes, it's called "The Old Republic" and it is KOTOR 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8!'

Basically, the idea is that The Old Republic is supposed to be a far more solo-friendly and story-centric MMO than most, and as such should fill the void.

They're wrong, of course. Simply by being a traditional MMO they destroy half the qualities you'd find in a good single player RPG. Things like immersion, impact of your actions, the ability to experience all the content yourself, focused production quality, etc.

Is it silly of me to keep holding out hope that there will be a KotOR 3? Fox and Ravens - 09/02/2011 04:24:55 PM 1210 Views
With The Old Republic, I wouldn't expect it. Zalis - 09/02/2011 05:49:20 PM 1030 Views

Thanks for that. Fox and Ravens - 09/02/2011 06:40:23 PM 954 Views
I have no answers, but on the subject ... Darth_Katie - 09/02/2011 06:28:35 PM 1041 Views
It is literally amazing. Fox and Ravens - 09/02/2011 06:43:14 PM 982 Views
It's about as good as a western-style RPG has ever been. Also: best plot twist of all time. lord-of-shadow - 09/02/2011 07:12:59 PM 1001 Views
But Katie, don't go looking up the plot twist before you decide to play it. Fox and Ravens - 09/02/2011 07:41:57 PM 1030 Views
Thanks for the warning. Darth_Katie - 09/02/2011 08:50:17 PM 1042 Views
Oh? What's the difference? Darth_Katie - 09/02/2011 08:51:33 PM 1043 Views
Ok, I may have exaggerated a little bit... lord-of-shadow - 09/02/2011 09:36:21 PM 1013 Views
Ah, I see. Thanks! *NM* Darth_Katie - 10/02/2011 01:50:50 PM 500 Views

Interesting viewpoint. lord-of-shadow - 10/02/2011 10:45:25 PM 1123 Views
Yeah, I thought about most of your complaints while writing that post. Aemon - 11/02/2011 02:42:16 AM 1048 Views
All fair enough. And I even agree with you. lord-of-shadow - 11/02/2011 04:24:21 AM 961 Views

Out of curiosity, did you ever play Morrowind? Ghavrel - 11/02/2011 08:44:06 AM 1071 Views
I played roughly halfway through. I quit when I realized how broken that game was. Aemon - 11/02/2011 05:57:04 PM 1010 Views
I love a good story but abhor collections/accomplishments/completionist stuff. Zalis - 11/02/2011 07:53:48 PM 983 Views
That they do. Aemon - 11/02/2011 10:50:02 PM 930 Views
Out of curiosity, what's you're opinion on the Neverwinter Nights games? *NM* Macharius - 11/02/2011 08:18:38 PM 517 Views
I've actually never played them. Aemon - 11/02/2011 10:46:11 PM 889 Views
That was always my impression as well. *NM* lord-of-shadow - 11/02/2011 11:46:32 PM 499 Views
That article is one of the most opaque pieces of text I've ever read. Dan - 12/02/2011 02:00:03 PM 1111 Views
I seriously doubt that. Ghavrel - 12/02/2011 08:28:44 PM 938 Views
Shortly put, western RPGs are better. Bergioyn - 09/02/2011 10:15:42 PM 1031 Views

Agreed Sir Tybalt - 12/02/2011 12:29:30 AM 963 Views
Since you could probably get it for five dollars, worth trying. TaskmasterJack - 09/02/2011 10:44:17 PM 970 Views
Same. I've always found it sort of meh. *NM* Ghavrel - 09/02/2011 11:41:19 PM 478 Views
It has the same chance in hell as a sequel to the Chrono series *NM* Roland00 - 11/02/2011 02:32:41 AM 450 Views
