I'm hyped, but this is at least 2 years out.
You're concern trolling.
Sam Maggs is not even listed as a Senior Writer or Lead Writer at Aspyr. She's not "writing the game", in the sense that she's leading in any creative capacity.
All writers listed in Linkedin at Aspyr are:
So given there are three or four more senior people than her on the writing team, I don't think any of the fearmongering and concern trolling is at all warranted.
- Courtney Woods - Lead Writer
- Jessica (Jessica Ilko) Sliwinski - Senior Writer
- Jordan Lemos - Senior Writer
- Nicole Stanford - Game Writer

Why do the game need writer at all is more the first question that comes to mind....You're concern trolling.

Worried this game is going to be woke trash.
Have you ever heard about console launch exclusives ?
I subtly slipped a clue into this sentence, will you be able to find it?
Also, this by Shinobi:
If PlayStation Studios teams are working on the game, and Sony is publishing it, I think there is a very little chance it would come on other consoles. Another argument is if it were just a normal timed exclusive, Sony didn't need to publish it. It would have been published by a third-party publisher, who would later publish it on Xbox and Nintendo. Why go the trouble of publishing it by SIE on PS?

She's not a writing lead and therefore will write what she's told to write.It isn’t concern trolling to be worried about the inclusion of someone on the game’s writing staff who clearly dislikes Star Wars fans and the more classic stories. She’s a huge fan of the sequel trilogy which raises massive red flags as they are shit.
PS5/PC at launch, most likely a few month later on Xbox.
She's not a writing lead and therefore will write what she's told to write.
She's also not even writing an original game. Much of the dialogue is already written. So there's a clear limit to the damage she could possibly do.
A lot of nostalgia to be honest.So, I never played KOTOR. Could someone who played the original give me a brief of what makes the game so special?
Console launch exclusive is throwing me off. God I fucking hate marketing.
Otherwise it sounds like an insomnaic type deal w/ spiderman (before they were aquired)
Whole game is massive red flag. They want to "modernize" story, people who worked on Andromeda and Anthem are writers of that game, she working on it. And on top of all that it's being made by porting company which never made own game.It isn’t concern trolling to be worried about the inclusion of someone on the game’s writing staff who clearly dislikes Star Wars fans and the more classic stories. She’s a huge fan of the sequel trilogy which raises massive red flags, as they are shit.
Her inclusion rather indicates they intend to ‘update’ Kotor with the more modern style of storytelling of the sequels.
If that doesn’t worry you then you need your head examined.
I wouldn't be certain about this. Plenty of timed exclusives never made their way to other consoles, e.g., FF7 Remake, Fall Guys, Godfall, etc.Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic Remake announced for PS5/PC, Console Launch exclusive (self-published by Aspyr on PC, published by SIE on PS5) News - Sony
Announced during today’s Sony showcase. Developed by Aspyr. Coming to PS5 and PC. “PS5 console launch exclusive.” Developed by Aspyr (the studio behind many recent re-releases of LucasArts-era games, including the re-releases of the original KOTOR games) Coming to PC and PS5 “it’s a console...www.resetera.com
Not permanent PS5 exclusive. Will come to Xbox.
For example- Stalker 2 is console launch exclusive. Will come to PS5.
Are you assuming this or are there official details on Era about this? I checked a few posts on the page you link, but couldn't find anything.SIE only publishing PS5 version

Right? PC is killing it this gen, almost all Xbox exclusives and now PS games are on PC.Thank god I have a pc
Not only that, but someone who’s clearly unqualified and batshit crazy.
The wording is so fucking confusing, but I thought SIE's publishing the PS5 & PC version.It is a bit weird to word it as' console exclusive at launch'. Maybe publishing it on PS was a way to drop the 'cost' of getting it as an exclusive. There are too many unknowns sadly, I want to see who is publishing it on PC.
She thinks Last Jedi is good movie. That means she has no idea what good story or characters are.How is she "clearly unqualified"?
It's way worse:The wording is so fucking confusing, but I thought SIE's publishing the PS5 & PC version.
She thinks Last Jedi is good movie. That means she has no idea what good story or characters are.
The reason why it says CONSOLE launch exclusive is because it's launching on PC & PS5 only day one, if it was launching ONLY on PS5 & then PC a few months later, it would say "PlayStation 5 launch exclusive" instead of "PlayStation 5 console launch exclusive". And it's been confirmed the game's coming to PC & PS5 DAY ONE and it still says "PS5 console exclusive AT LAUNCH", meaning it'll come to Xbox sometime later (don't know exactly how long that is).It's way worse:
"Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic – Remake will see the classic RPG return as a PlayStation 5 console exclusive at launch and for PC"
So when PC version will be available?
just a really solid rpg, that presented a lot of cool ideas into the star wars universe that I've never seen in the movies or television shows.So, I never played KOTOR. Could someone who played the original give me a brief of what makes the game so special?
Worried this game is going to be woke trash.
If she hates the fans and the source material that makes her the right person for the job in 2021.
Joke post?Was the character in the trailer even in the original? Definitely don't remember him/her.
There is one slavic proverb i think really relevant for that situation.:
A spoonful of tar spoils a barrel of honey.
I hope you are right, and she has minimal influence on the game. But even if her role is small, this game is being made by people who thought it was a good idea to hire Sam Maggs as a writer. This is cause for genuine concern.
Definitely wasn't. Haven't played the game since 03/04.Joke post?
And that's not the case for almost all western studios? You don't see that?Given how many prominent game studios are based in California, by that logic almost every game would be polluted by misandry-spouting woke BS.
And that's not the case for almost all western studios? You don't see that?
Yeah but Revan is the main character of the game and you played it. It just seems surreal to me. It's like looking at the cover of a mario game and saying: "who's the guy with the overalls, cap and mustache, it's been a while since I played this game"Definitely wasn't. Haven't played the game since 03/04.
Sony holistically and organically money hatting third party games. Makes it impossible to care when Microsoft buy a publisher.
Whether that is the basis for view of her qualifications or not. He is still right. Last Jedi is objectively bad in most things that it does.That's your basis for her qualifications?
It's Star wars, there are good characters and story. I guess it also set a lot of standards for console RPGs that later found its way to games like Mass Effect. Like how you interact with your companions and they dole out meaty exposition via dialogue.So, I never played KOTOR. Could someone who played the original give me a brief of what makes the game so special?
Rise of the Tomb Raider (2015) was a completely new game. I meant a game like KOTOR where only the visuals are enhanced but the story and gameplay is identical to the original.If you count reboots (not just remakes) Tomb Raider series did it first.
PS5 Pro enhanced!Hyped but this is probably a 2024 game

They are not publishing that game. Sony is publishing the new game that is being "remade". I thin it's the technical loophole, you can say.My question is how can Sony publish a remake of a game published by Microsoft?
If she’s on the game I certainly buy. I don’t generally straight out boycott products but I will make an exception here.You're concern trolling.

It’s the same plot and name. If they were making koror 3 fine but they are not.They are not publishing that game. Sony is publishing the new game that is being "remade". I thin it's the technical loophole, you can say.
By this logic, would Microsoft be able to do the same if they want to? I dunno why, but this seems unlikely. I think Microsoft is not known for remaking games...they probably weren't going to do anything with the game and so maybe they cut a deal with Sony.They are not publishing that game. Sony is publishing the new game that is being "remade". I thin it's the technical loophole, you can say.
The original was not published by MS.My question is how can Sony publish a remake of a game published by Microsoft?
