Ok, has anyone ever played the RPG "Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic" (aka KOTOR)?
If so, listen up. Bioware the creater of that great game is at it again. This time in the form of an MMORPG (Massive Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game) named "Star Wars: The Old Republic".
Now, as you know I'm not the biggest fan of MMORPG's or as I like to call them "The Plague". However, this one is looking interesting.
If any of you haven't played "Knights of the Old Republic" let me know and I will let you borrow the game or if your Myst quit being lazy and go download it. That game is one of the best RPG's out there.
More about "The Old Republic". This will be the first MMORPG to incorporate voice dialog and a decision based system. So your character and NPC (Non-Playable Characters) will talk. You can also make choices on if you will be "good" or "evil". These choices will impact the skills and abilities that will be available to you as you progress and level up.
The game is set to be released in 2010 and since it's Bioware not "Blizzard" this will probably be correct.
Since this is an MMORPG you can probably expect to be billed monthly to play but I haven't heard anything official on this yet.
I know this isn't our typical gaming arena but I thought it looked promising and was intersted on what all of you thought.
Since it's Bioware I will be doing this at least at first because they have put out some amazing games.
Bioware games:
Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic
Baldur's Gate
Neverwinter Nights
Jade Empire
Mass Effect
For me "Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic" and "Mass Effect" easily rank in the top 5 of my all time favorite RPG's (Role Playing Games).
Below are some gameplay videos that came out recently. Check these out and let us know what you think:
