SWTOR is KOTOR3 for me.

Similar story telling, setting, dialogue, choices, morals and powers.

Only they added multiplayer and a cosmetics shop.

Oddly it's probably become less KOTOR over time, compared to how it was at launch.

    And then the eternal empire happened 😕

    Cool sci-fi concept, but didn't feel very star wars to me.

    That was really a bad move, in hindsight.

    Painted themselves into so many corners they've never gotten back out of.

    I hated how it played though. And there was so much filler. And a subscription fee. And no mods.

    And a subscription fee

    To be fair, they made it free to play 13 years ago, less than a year after release.

    The website still makes it look like there's a subscription and "cartel coins" to buy. I tried to free sometime in the past 10 years and the free mode felt limited. I think you can't sprint , or something insulting like that?

    Fair enough, each to their own!

    I didn't feel it played too different to the originals, much of the filler was fun and the fee is optional, so I loved the game.

    I've never looked into mods for the first two, except the restoration project, so have no opinion on that point!

    Nah The Old Republic is why we never got a 3rd KotOR. Same reason why we don't have Elder Scrolls 6 or GTA6. Why would they make a new game when they're still making a shitload of money off mmo games that people are still playing years later?

    As soon as I found out The Old Republic had a subscription fee I knew KotOR was doomed.
