Rogue 3 Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 Limited info, but it’s getting a remake for PS5 which I am really looking forward to! Classic! https://blog.playstation.com/2021/09/09/star-wars-knights-of-the-old-republic-remake-is-the-legendary-tale-remade-on-playstation-5/amp/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Wader Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 Will be on PC too, I think PS5 is a console exclusive (or timed). I missed the boat when this one came out so looking forward to finally sinking my teeth into it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Odine Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 Fuck yeah. If this is on PC too I can't wait. Need me my 3070 now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zathras Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 AWESOME! I hope if this is successful, they remake KOTOR2, as well, and add in the levels they cut out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Sockimus Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 Did the Main Character get voice actors? Only way this is a proper remake is if You Know Who can actually talk. Probably just going to wait for it's exclusivity to run up and go to Xbox after the fact. From everything I had heard, this wasn't supposed to be a straight remake so more details would be great. Would be awesome if they really did go hard and make it an entirely new game. About time Darth Revan became canonized in the Disney era. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Virul Posted October 24, 2021 Share Posted October 24, 2021 Is it going to be turn-based or will they remake it as a hack&slash like FF7 remake? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Odine Posted November 7, 2021 Share Posted November 7, 2021 Think same combat and all. Probably with some modernization and quality of life changes, but still action-pause turn based. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogue 3 Posted November 8, 2021 Author Share Posted November 8, 2021 Yeah, agreed Odine. Similar upgrade to what was done with Mass Effect trilogy most likely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tank Posted November 8, 2021 Share Posted November 8, 2021 Booo, I HATE turn based action so much. I was hoping to finally play this. I know how great the story is , but the combat and dated feel has kept me from it. I was hoping this would be for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Odine Posted November 15, 2021 Share Posted November 15, 2021 You can play it without pausing. Just makes giving specific orders a little harder. It's basically the same combat system as the first mass effect. Where you can pause to issue orders or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tank Posted November 15, 2021 Share Posted November 15, 2021 But are you actually playing the action and the attacks? Is the combat real time with pauses, or turn-based? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 15, 2021 Share Posted November 15, 2021 It’s been a long time, but IIRC it’s more real time with pauses. It’s definitely not Final Fantasy style turn-based. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tank Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 Well color me re-re-interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Odine Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 Even the original still manages to feel action oriented. It's not turn based like Crpg games. You pause the action, issue various commands to your squad that queue up to 3 or 4 actions, then un pause and everything plays out. You can just go in swinging using a base standard attack but if you want to force lightening a fool it's better to pause time, target said fool, queue your lightening and un-pause. Yeah its dated but it still feels like an action game. Hopefully they make improvements to the combat since this is a complete remake of the game not a remaster. I'd assume combat to be closer to mass effect 2 or something. Hopefully. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Odine Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 Afterthought... There is an element of primitive xcom style tactical combat to the Kotor pause system. If you manage your whole squad and level all your characters up to your own specific wants to how you play there is a lot of synergies there and ways to build a complementary squad. Fuck, I'm really looking forward to this game actually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
