KotOR on Switch (Aspyr) Review @ RPG Fan

There still is no non-action adventure game out there …
I believe it now that people just did an equation of "Star Wars = Action" ( and the last 3 movies greatly show that ! ) and thus did only produce action games according to that.
According to that, KOTOR is merely a fluke.

At the current climate it looks like the Star Wars IP is being sold to multiple studios after EA failed to make anything good. So never say never its just a matter of time.

The only exception was Omikron which was more of a blending of different genres. There were first person shooter segments and one on one fighting game match seqments.

Remember playing Omikron back when Daikatana was released in 2000. Both flopped and became cult classic over the last fifteen years though. Anyway it's been a while.

I didn't like that update in some apects, either.
It contained things that should have been there 5 years ago.
SWTOR has the far slowest patch rate I have ever sen. They introduced things and fixed bugs 5-10 years too late.

Oh man, I loved that game. I would definitely call it an (action/adventure) RPG though.
