 Do you think BioWare will ever make Star Wars: Knights Of The Old Republic 3? Or at least a remastered version of Star Wars: Knights Of The Old Republic 1 like Bungies doing with Halo 1?

No. They seem to prefer this MMO junk instead of good single-player RPGs.

You'd think that with the MMO people would stop asking this question. Bioware has said this will be Kotor 3,4,5,6,7,8 etc. If you won't play it is not their problem.

I'm fairly confident the MMO will be terrible. After that, they will have to drop the series.

I don't see how a story-driven MMO can work anyway.

That's like asking Blizzard to make Warcraft 4

Keep in mind, Bioware can't do anything without going through Lucasarts. It's their decision if KotOR 3 happens.

And why not? They've made Starcraft 2 and are making Diablo 3.

Why? Because WoW is continuing the story there is no need. There are two more planned expansions that have been revealed until then there is no point in wishing for it.

Starcraft 2 was announced a long time ago and Diablo 3 as well. Neither franchise has an MMO planned.

There is no equivalent MMO in either the Starcraft or the Diablo series.

I doubt they will, but I would love it if they did. I hate this MMO crap. I want my single player KotOR. Its all up to Lucasarts though. Or if not Bioware, then let Obsidian have a go at KotOR 3, but with as much development time as they need this time around.

If you want another Old Republic RPG, play TOR; if you want to know what happened after the last KotOR, read Revan. Everybody's happy.

Me neither.

Have either of you played Age of Conan? Tortage at least (being the only bit I've done so far) is pretty story based. The difference in TOR (as far as I can tell) is that the class quests (the equivalent of AoC's destiny quests) actually take place in the open world, with only small pieces phased / instanced, but even then you can still bring a party for most -if not all- of it.

I don't know why so many people think an MMO can't be story-driven. The only reason some MMOs aren't already considered story-driven is that the story's so poorly presented (quest text..) that it goes overlooked, but there's noting to say it's impossible.

Yes, but if you've followed their updates lately, you'd see that they're "rich, deep story" is not all that impressive. Same Jedi vs. Sith storyline. In fact, they even copy-pasted characters from the movies. For example, that Han Solo clone in the Return trailer.  That's why I'm skeptical about this MMO.

How does that make everybody happy?
There are those of us that want an Old Republic RPG single player experience not MMO.
Those of us that want an Old Republic RPG without the requirement of an Internet connection or subscription fee in order to play.

Except the bits that are neither, like the Eternity Vault, or the Tatooine dev Imperial walkthrough which made no reference at all to fighting the Republic. The overarching theme is Republic vs. Empire, just as it was in both KotOR games, but there's other stuff in there as well, just like both KotOR games.

Well good news! Two such games exist, but if you always want more then you'll never be satisfied. Like I said though, there's a book if you want more of the story without playing the MMO, nobody's forcing you to play TOR.

FYI, if you buy TOR now you get a months game time included, that should be enough to play through the solo content (of which there's a fair bit, as I understand). That's 2/3 of your problems down right there. ;)

There is a planet dedicated to end game for solo players....I don't think 1 month is enough to experience 8 classes with different stories.

Oh ya, because being play the game for only one month is completely worth buying it. I don't know about you; but when I buy a Rpg, I tend to want to make multiple playthroughs and spend more than just a month playing the game. I'm not about to spend $50 on a game that I can't even explore the whole content of it without spend yet more money. I know no one is forcing me to buy the game. I will not be buying it. I also realize that we will most likely never see another KotOR, but that doesn't mean we can't still hope for one.

Highly unlikely(especially if The Old Republic sells poorly)
I would rather have a proper KOTOR 3 myself. The Old Republic doesn't look all that promising, rather bland and as far as MMORPGs go, Guild Wars 2 looks x10 better.

I would suggest the following: There should be two types of subscriptions, a solo subscription and a normal one, the former will add 6 months of play time for only 15$ while adding HEAVY social restrictions on you, like: You can't join a party/group/raid, you can't whisper anybody(but you can respond), you can't join guilds and you can't add friends, the point of this one is to please everyone that just want to experiance the story without paying 15$ each month.

The latter is a normal subscription like any other MMO.

If said RPG allowed me to play with all my friends online and thousands of others and was continuously being updated with significant new content I'd say it was worth the £9 a month (though if there's a better value, long-term plan I'll take that). Frankly, I spend more on soft drinks over a fortnight. Now you do know about me.

If a game's good enough to hold my attention for more than a month I'd probably end up buying DLC for it anyway. Of course I'd rather it be free, but the same could be said of everything, that's just life.

I was at my local Game today, and TOR was first and third (CE) on the PC chart. We'll have to wait and see how well it holds subs, but that's not bad for a game with no release date.

As for GW2... I know better than to get into that argument again. :whistle:

See I don't care about playing online with a bunch of people. I play RPGs for the singleplayer experience and a great story. That's what I enjoyed about KotOR I & II. I have no interest in MMOs. I'm not mad that Bioware is making a MMO as I don't have to play it. I would just like to hope for another KotOR someday even though it's not likely. I also hope for another Jade Empire although that is just as unlikely.

No. Bioware is not going to make a KotOR 3. SW: TOR is KotOR 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, etc. They are also releasing a book that details the events of Revan's life after KotOR. And even if Bioware wanted to make a KotOR 3, they wouldn't be able to without the go ahead from Lucas Arts.
