It's a double shot of Trailer Review from me today, this time with the first in a series of video documentaries from the folks at Bioware and Lucasarts. Star Wars: The Old Republic is an upcoming MMORPG based in the universe that we know and love from the Star Wars films. All the action takes place 300 years after the events of Knights of the Old Republic and roughly 3,500 before Darth Vader and Luke Skywalker went toe to toe.
Check out the video, after the jump:
Most interestingly, the game will make use of KOTOR's alignment system, whereby players' actions and speech patterns would push the character towars the light (good) or dark (evil) sides. The game promises to offer a deeper level of emergent narrative than your average MMO. This seems to be the game's unique selling proposition, other than just being Star Wars, of course.
