Aulus_Claudius Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 You do realize what this means, right? Star Wars is just another cycle that played out some time prior to the Protheans & Inusannon, and nothing that Arcann, Valkorion, or the player do to make themselves masters of the galaxy will matter when the Reapers arrive.

AngFour Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 (edited) *checks and sees light saber on character's belt* *checks and sees "Jedi Knight" upon character selection* *checks and sees a severe lack of N7 branded gear* *player snuggles and strokes her N7 hoodie because she luffs it* Pretty sure it's still Star Wars Edited December 2, 2016 by AngFour Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whole issue between Empire and Republic - dark vs light side, was always phylosophical question about good and evil. And that was purpose of Lucas. Even connection and cooperation both side is ruin of STAR WARS (only because developers were lazy to do ´two story lines for republic and empire) Actualy this is realy sad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thepilk Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 (edited) Dont forget that Vailyn has a lot of similarities with Jack considered so dangerous that she had to be locked away, crazy, shaved head and tattoos visual motifs (shaved head in the young version of her in trailers that is).

Sendisa Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 And similar Dragon Age, and KOTOR, and whatever RPG Bioware released before that... It's pretty obvious by now that BW like a certain type of formula to their games using favoured tropes. Where have you been for the past 15 or so years?

I dont agree...as much as play many games you see similar points over each other...same when you read many books, is hard to fing pure originality. As much as you know, because you read a lot, you see it....oh this element i read in that book, and this element is similar in this book.... Of course that for one who is reading first book ever its pure original.....im ok with that...this is not problem. What bothering me, that here are mass effect elements so visible......dragon ege did not come up on my mind when i play current star wars story....mass effect did....because its realy obvious.....

Or they just lack talent at writing something new . There is that as well . I don't know anyone who keep ripping from their own work like this and shoving it into a new game and labeling it as new .

Tamyn Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 The dream sequence with the stone bridges forming as you ran across them reminded me of the mirror/Fade dimension in the Trespasser DLC from Dragon Age: Inquisition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thepilk Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 Ive been getting DA:Inquistion vibes ever since chapter 9 of KotFE with teh whole loose confederation of faction splinters, and Hylo/Oggurub/Beywn/Sane-Rae commanders remind me of Cullen/Leliana/Josephine/Cassandra as command figures in said alliance/inquisition. Also, Chapter 6 of KoTET is pretty much the Winter Palace chapter from Inquisition all over again where you infiltrate a fancy party and eventually have a big public showdown.

OlBuzzard Posted December 3, 2016 Share Posted December 3, 2016 well they did have Valkorian ... oh yeah he was killed off early on ! Then there's the Sith Emperor ... as well as Revan .. hmmm a definite pattern ! The only thing we are missing is a Homer Simpson wanna-be to make the circle complete ! :D:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KyaniteD Posted December 3, 2016 Share Posted December 3, 2016 (edited) You do realize they actually said they wanted to copy what made Mass Effect successful? Edited December 3, 2016 by KyaniteD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OlBuzzard Posted December 3, 2016 Share Posted December 3, 2016 You do realize they actually said they wanted to copy what made Mass Effect successful? who me ??? I wasn't talking about that ... but since you pointed it out! Yes, actually I do. It's even recorded in the Wikipedia description of SWTOR .. (for whatever it's worth ... not upset or anything ... just saying ) IMHO the "mass effect" might be a part of the issue they are falling into in other areas. Something has gone south over the last year or so. I do like the story line ... but IMHO there REALLY do need to be instances for players to invite friends into and share the game ... But that is better discussed in another thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain_Zone Posted December 3, 2016 Share Posted December 3, 2016 Vette = Ash Torian = Kaeden Same Life/Death thing as in Mass Effect 1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KyaniteD Posted December 3, 2016 Share Posted December 3, 2016 (edited) who me ??? No, that was @OP, who seems to be surprised. What the Wikipedia entry doesn't say is that they had the dev team actually look at and replay ME2 to identify what made it so great and us it as inspiration for KotFE.

OlBuzzard Posted December 3, 2016 Share Posted December 3, 2016 No, that was @OP, who seems to be surprised. ah !! got it ! .. and yeah I agree with you! Perhaps OP was trying to suggest that this may be more a part of the problem rather than a better solution??? At any rate. I'm sure that this will not be resolved any time soon. Hopefully a reasonable solution will be reached in the best interests of everyone concerned! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
