This is from a post on the IPLY boards about KotOR.
The problem is that developers believe people like this are the major demographic. And because most hardcore RPG gamers still buy crap titles, it kind of reasures publishers that this is the kind of game we like. Anyhow, with people posting crap like this it doesn't surpise me that commercial roleplaying games in general are getting worse and worse. I think the only way to send a message is for people to stop buying games, even when you know its a game you are not going to like. I am guilty of this myself, and can't tell you how many people buy something and then complain endlessely about it
Oh Well, I just needed a place to rant.
This game is bound to *beep* off millions of rabid Star Wars fans. Good thing though; this way it will be a normal game pleasing the masses who could care less for the number of two handed lightsabers or the amount of powerfull Jedis. As long it's a good crpg game with epic battles, nice writing, fancy graphics, sound and music I'll be more than satisfied. Screw hardcore roleplaying, I just want a fun action game that has some character development and a compelling story.
It'll be like BG2 in space.
Hooray!
