Would you play a new or remastered KOTOR game?

Yes, I would play either.
I'm sort of split...I actually prefer KOTOR 1 with the storyline and companions, but 2 had hell of a lot better customization. I still love my Jedi gunslinger who could force persuade the living shit out of anyone.
Oh how I miss those games...

Commercial failure.... Stagnation.... Drowning in debt?jpz719 said:
Ummm where did you get that? It's got a constant feed of updates and gets positive notes in EA earnings calls. It's also one of the more populated MMORPG's at the moment.
And as for Obsidian.... have they released anything that wasn't bugged to the eyeballs?
The answer to the OP is no. It suffers from some serious nostalgia goggles.
ummm KOTOR is my #3 favourite game of all time. So of course the answer is YES! I would love a remastered KOTOR!
I couldn't really get into KOTOR 2 (even with all the mods adding cut content back in) so I would much rather a remaster than a sequel.

I'd say yes. The combat system was one of the weaker points of the older games since it was just Star Wars D20 with a few workarounds to make it playable. Something like what they did between Mass Effect 1 and 2 could work out well or end horribly depending on what route they take, but on the plus side they could possibly salvage some of the work from 1313 if they decided to make it partially into a shooter.
The first game's story and character interactions are pretty solid, so minimal reworking would be needed there, but the second one...it's a bit of a mess. Not bad in its own right, but massive gaps in plot (mostly owing to several story arcs getting cut) and much weaker character interactions mean it's going to need a bit more work to be releasable.

Yes, please.
The era those games portray is my favorite SW era. I would love a new game from it. I tried playing SWTOR when they had an open beta weekend back in the day, but it wasn't exactly my cup of tea. I prefer SP RPGs to MMO RPGs.
Honestly, a GOG release would suffice. I want to be able to run KOTOR games on modern systems without it being a pain in the ass.

I don't really care if they make an actual sequel, just make another game with the same feel/theme/rough setting, and I'd be happy. It's the same for me as it is with Mass Effect. I don't care if the next ME game has anything to do with Shepherd and what he did. It's a huuuuuge galaxy, and they could tell all kinds of stories that have jack to do with the event's of the trilogy of games.
Same goes for KOTOR for me. I loved the game, but I probably wouldn't play a remastered version. If they made a new KOTOR game though, and told a good story, I'd be all over that thing.

I would jump at the chance to play either one of them as a remaster. I picked them up a while back during a sale, but for the life of me I can't get them to run. I got the first one to run, briefly... I was able to get maybe an hour or two into the game, then it would just keep crashing at the exact same spot. I've tried changing the settings, I've tried fan patches, I've even tried cheating my way past that one spot. No dice.
It's a shame, because they're too games that I'd love to be able to experience given how highly praised they come, even from people who don't like Star Wars.

Except it has paid itself of and they are still adding content.... EA kills anything that doesn't make a profit.jpz719 said:
You're using the same old tired doomsayer arguments that have been going since December 2011 and yet here it is nearing end of 2014 and it's still not anywhere near dead.
If they updated the graphics and maybe had a few more customization options like in Mass Effect, along with some of the gameplay tweaks and UI fixes Obsidian added in II, I'd buy the hell out of it. They shouldn't alter the core gameplay at all, though. We have enough action RPGs already, let those of us who prefer planning to twitch reflexes have our icon.
And while we're at it, let's get Obsidian back to FINISH KOTOR II. They just released Stick of Truth and it did well, they can handle this easily.

Funny you should say that because the combat is the one thing I want it to have remasteredElfgore said:
Like, even if they just slap the Dragon Age Origins combat in it, the KotOR one just doesn't feel good, so to say
I keep avoiding fights as much as I can
well, there's that and also the damn dark jedis being a real roadblock in my progress
every damn planet I go to I get to a dead end because of them, and I just started the "go to either of these 3 planets" after the one where you pick up the cat-like chick whose name escapes me
I'd really like a remastered one. With the way the franchise has gone for me I'd be tentative to buy an entirely new one.
I would be all over that. Remastered or a new one. A good old fashioned KOTOR RPG about being a space dick through space with space laserswords is something that never gets old.
Then doing it again in different colors playing nice.
