This kidna fits in 2 areas, pc games and the star wars section.
Lucasarts and BioWare have got together once again, but this time, they are creating an MMO!
Set 300 years after KOTOR 2 and 3600 years before the rise of Vader, During the Sith War.
The real Sith Empire has returned and the republic is losing the war, a tenuous peace has been struck, while the sith occupy most of the galaxy, the republic are doing what they can to prepare for the inevitable return to war. The peace is holding, however, border skirmishes are taking plae throughout the galaxy, and you must chose how you wish to fight for you chosen side.
At the moment 5/8 classes have been releaed (afaik)
Light Side
Jedi,
Trooper,
Darkside
Sith
Bounty Hunter,
Cant Rememer,
Smuggler
Each split between the light side and the dark side, each having their own campaign, equal to the storyline of KOTOR and KOTOR 2, with the dynamics of an RPG, in that your actions shape the world u play through.
The game itself apparently has more Content than any other BioWare game made, put together (And this is coming from BioWares co founder, and CEO, so its probably close tobeing true)
I is also completley voiced over, to increase with the players emertion into the univserse.
Ive only read reviews and seen videos on you tube (some of which will be posted below) but i cant help but be insanley excited about this game!
PC gamer (PC Gaming magazine i read) are billing this game as the wow killer, and i appreciate this is ot the first time a game has been released that has been unable to deliver, but this game is in its self a new breed.
The down point, it has a monthly subscription fee. but, i pay one now, so im willing to pay one then as well.
Anyway, from what i have been able to find the game is due for release September this year!
I wonder what other people think?
