Wonder how it'll be ruined. No choices because has to fit canon? No silent protagonist? Forced romance? Characters changed or cut? Etc.

Also apparently it will be exclusive to PS5 at launch, with other consoles possibly getting it an undetermined time later.

Yeah, as excited as I am, I do worry how they'll handle some of those things. Hopefully it will be pretty faithful to the original and mostly revamp the visuals with a modern character creator. But "remake" could go pretty far, so we'll see when details start to emerge.

I don’t think they’ll be stupid enough to go for forced romance and no choices. Changes to characters and no silent protagonist are possible, the latter being personally quite likely.

If they change it to fit their garbage canon I will be utterly infuriated.
Especially so if that means we never get the far superior sequel in a full triple A treatment.

Bioware already did with SWTOR after all, making a canon timeline and everyone else played wrong. I doubt the powers that be behind this one care even that much about these things.

Bioware already did with SWTOR after all, making a canon timeline and everyone else played wrong. I doubt the powers that be behind this one care even that much about these things. The PC in TOR wasn’t Revan, though. I’m not saying that people couldn’t and weren’t disappointed by the decision in TOR, but doing that in the remake is on a completely different scale, in my opinion.

Whether they are the PC or an NPC is irrelevant. They bastardized the character (as well as The Exile) making them completely unrecognizable to many players. I see a remake being easier to do that if anything. After all they get to choose what goes in, what gets changed, etc.

I see a remake being easier to do that if anything. After all they get to choose what goes in, what gets changed, etc. I think for a lot of people it might be worse if they’d do that in the remake, and it’ll be more improntant for a lot of people to play your character as you want, more so then an NPC. Not to mention that picking a canon would mean we’llbe forced on a path, removing any possibility of giving the player the choice between Light and Dark Side, with for a SW RPG won’t be that appreciated. I understand that for you and many others, there isn’t different between a PC and NPC suffering that fate, but I don’t think that’s true for everyone. At least in terms of scale, it’ll get a much worse reaction this time around, that it got with TOR. I guess we’ll see when they’ll reveal more of the game. While I’m open to things being different, as I don’t expect the game to be the same exact one as it was back in the day, a fixed protagonist and choices would lower significantly my interested in this.

Oh, I misunderstood what you meant regarding scale. I thought you meant scale as in it'd be harder for the devs to do. Yes, I imagine the reaction to the remake doing that would be worse than SWTOR since that was just expansion packs while this one is "replacing" the original via remaking it. Though I could absolutely see them forcing a choice like that, since all games have to fit the canon timeline now.

I get that, but if they’d go in that direction, I’d have gone for a completely new game, since it’d at least allow you to make two fixed protagonist, male and female, to choose from. Again, I don’t personally think It’ll be a good idea and I do think they’ll keep the options for protagonist’s gender as well as choices in the game, but we’ll see.

Wonder how it'll be ruined. No choices because has to fit canon? No silent protagonist? Forced romance? Characters changed or cut? Etc. Since its a remake they are going to put everything that the online community says must be in modern games. So it will be fully voiced, limited choices if any, since its not BioWare the romance thing is probably unlikely, definitely going to see characters cut and altered. I will also expect it to be a dead open world where there are only five or six tasks that are repeated at least 10 times.

I hope they allow us to play all kinds of player characters, perhaps even take inspiration from what the sequel improved upon, I hope they don't fuck it up royally.

I would have preferred to have a new Knights of the Old Republic. I don't need them to prove they have no idea how to make a new game and just keep cashing in on established games. Just because they think they can make them better now in more cases they have proven they cannot make them better and just ruin the game. I am okay with remasters, but the remake train has been lowering my expectations now.
