Oh please no, let someone else buy the rights to this IP before a game or MMO is made from it. Last thing we need is for Lucas or EA to touch Indiana Jones, Lucas has done enough damage as it stands.

No love for Howard? lol

 

I'd probably prefer a good Indiana Jones game myself. Starwars has been beaten to death, resurected and beaten to death again more times then I can count at this point. Something based on the Indiana Jones IP would be a nice change. An open world Monkey Island IP game could be interesting as well.

What in the world again does EA have to do with this? Second in what way would George Lucas? You actually think he puts input into game development?

Wouldn't it end up feeling a lot like SWTOR?  When I was actually on the planets doing the quests, it felt more like Rebels vs. Empire than anything else.

Howard the Duck MMORPG would be so out of left field... but the people who think the setting makes or breaks a game are the fools in charge of ruining Star Wars and Warhammer.

Lucas Arts, Lucasfilm, anything with the name Lucas attached. Sorry didn't realize you were one of the ones that didn't know George Lucas owned numerous companies with the name Lucas some where in them.

And you may not be aware of this.... but EA is the publisher for SWTOR and many gamers simply don't like EA for numerous reasons.

I know Lucas owns LA, that's beside the point, and again this isn't an EA game. So your post made absolutely no sense, nor does this one above.

Ahh your post came off like you didn't, it seemed you thought I meant George Lucas himself lol. My mistake, I should have given you more credit.

In any case, LA had publishing rights taken and given to EA on TOR, which makes EA a relavent topic of discussion when the Star Wars IP and LA publishing a game are being discussed.

Keep in mind Lucasfilms is the Liscensor and what happened with TOR is a possibility with KOTOR3.

 

Hopefully that clarrifies things for you a bit :)

This news kind of made LA's TOR stance make sense to me, in that originally I thought they were to publish TOR, but handed the reins to EA. IF it was to work on their own game, such as this it would make sense.

I did think you meant Lucas himself lol, my bad.

There's nothing abot any of this forum topic that makes sense.  Is Lucas Arts really going to make an Old Republic game?  The old republic is clearly an specialty of BioWare, not Lucas Arts.  Are they going to make a game which competes with TOR?  Would they even be allowed to? (and yes an open world single player RPG could compete with it) and there's never been an Old Republic "Open World" game, though there has been at least one Movie game.

Technically KOTOR is owned by LA. WHich is why the second was made by Obsidian. Like I said before I hope it's something other than Star Wars, I'd love a skyrim version of star wars, but I think something other than that would be better received at this point. Such as the Indiana Jones IP, which I feel would fit open world exploration superbly if done rigtht.

Aww I was saving the "EA devoured Bioware" for last :(

But yeah, none of this really makes a lot of sense lol. We could guess at whats going on but at the end of the day anything could happen at this point.

LucasArts is a mess.

They hire and fire people left and right.

They also start on projects and cancel them without any public explanation or kjnowledge.

So this news is without any valued impact or importance.

Why do I write, create, fantasize, dream and daydream about other worlds? Because I hate what humanity does with this one.

If LucasArts do make another Knights of the Old Republic game it won't be the same as the other ones.  Bioware owns the engine that created both of those games and has a patent on its design.  If too many elements from a LucasArts KoToR resembled too many elements of a Bioware KoToR, LucasArts could find themselves in a heap of trouble.

Bioware doesn't only own the right to graphical engine but also the system used in the game.  The multi-choice decision menues are a distinct Bioware property.  The way in which the character molds over time is a distinct Bioware property.  The statistics systems used for leveling up your character and the skills menues are all owned by Bioware.

The only thing LucasArts owns in the development of KoToR is the right to the Star Wars intellectual property and the right to development of the story arch.

If LucasArts were to develop this game without giving royalties to Bioware they would be in a lot of legal problems.  Alternatively if they were to develop the game with an entirely new system people just might think of it as a cheap George Lucas knock off of  a classic game.

Lol ouch... see, the sad part is Star Wars fans can't even really defend against a comment like that.  At this point, just about anything is possible to get the Star Wars branding slapped on it :p

 

As for TFU, last I heard they had scrapped TFUIII.  Perhaps this is a resugrance but I'd MUCH rather see the next evolution of the JEDI KNIGHT series of games.

I'd rather much see Battlefront III tbh...

LOL, my thoughts exactly!!! What makes that scene and picture awesome is Howard the Duck on the pinball machine that Indy's getting raped on.  The boys of South Park are always on top of things!
