Well, just heard some interesting news. According to another gaming site (CVG) we might be seeing the third incarnation of KOTOR finally... unfortunately, from the sounds of what's been going on lately, it might be going the way of the MMO instead of the RPG, which, I have to admit, pisses me off a bit. I wanted to go back to the original KotOR's roots, I have to admit that hearing that it's going MMO is not endearing this to me AT ALL.

It means Massively Multiplayer Online. For example, World of Warcraft is an MMO because millions of people playing the game have to log in and play with each other. The previous KotORs have just been RPGs.

I would be totally happy if they decided to go out and make an MMO based off the Old Republic, it's a pretty interesting time that I like reading about even. But when it comes down to whether or not it would take KotOR III's place... I want to see how the series turns out and I really don't want it killed for another "hopeful" MMO like Galaxies.

I'm afraid that since I have created this thread, it has been confirmed that, unfortunately, the KotOR series is going the path of Massive Multiplayer Online and is turning away from it's RPG roots. Sorry to give you guys such rotten news!

As you should be.

The whole MMO PC market thing has been sort of angering me for a while. Nothing comes out for the PC which is normal anymore because everyone wants to try and emulate the success that World of Warcraft was, which I find is a waste in a field which is already overflowing with MMORPGs.

If anyone is interested, there's a forum for Star Wars: The Old Republic (the new MMO games) here. Be sure to hit it up for further discussion!

I believe the term they used was 3 and onwards, I don't think they ever said a set number for where they were going to be ending this KotOR -- if you can number such a thing. =P
