What happened to it is still the biggest crime in gaming history

What a tragedy. With the cancelation of that and battlefront 3, I'd say gaming was done.

If you need any more evidence that Star Wars was killed this game is it.

there exists a timeline where lucasarts never died, I'd take it any day over fallen order/jedi survivor

>>712962965 (OP)
I cope by assuming it was just gonna be a shitty uncharted clone (which is very likely).

>>712963470
Probably, but I still love the idea that Disney lost money be being extremely lazy and fobbing off all Star Wars videogames to EA so they could take the ball and spike it into the septic tank

>>712962965 (OP)
Well, what happened?

>>712962965 (OP)
SW games died well before the Disney boogeyman. It was going to be shit.

Yep. I don't even hate Fallen Order (never played Jedi Survivor) but you can clearly see in many facets that they are developements that wouldn't even fit with the old canon in any way, not even just in the grand narrative or their compatibility with the stories but the overall feel and direction. Fallen Order was somewhat fresh but it felt rehashed and not all that remarkable, and it felt like a vacuum filler, or rather "safe". Whatever 1313 would have been, THAT was ambitious and interesting as a concept. You could get a LOT more creative with the old canon.

Cancelled by Disney. It was our one chance to see the underbelly of Corruscant. Knowing the planet's history, we could possibly even have had horror themes.

what makes you think it was going to be anything but a shitty unsharted movie game? By this point lucasarts was completely incapable of making anything but 7/10 slop.

>>712962965 (OP)
The biggest crime is EA held the starwars license for over a decade and instead of making a new republic commando respawn made some jank as fuck third person action games.

>>712963359
Its honestly amazing how prior to 2012 the Star Wars brand was still growing strong. Then Disney buys it out and kills it down to the microbial level. There is 0 hope of a good SW product now and newer generations associate the brand with Rey Palpatine, Filonitrash or D+ shows about lesbian space covens singing "The Power of One."

>"The Power of One"
It's actually "Power of Two"

It's actually impressive just how little is going on in Disneywars' sequel timeline. Then they made the High Republic and there's nothing on on there either

>>712969081
didn't they kill it last year as well
