God I feel so bad for the Star Wars IP. It get's stuck with Disney, one of the biggest money-whore companies ever to exist, and on the games side it get's stuck with EA, which is fucking EA.
RIP good Star Wars content

^ basically.

I just want another Knights of the old republic (rpg) star wars game.... guess its too much to hope for.

^ thats depressing to read.

Apparently a good single player game would take too long to do, they want profits here and now, so they cancelled it so they could pump out something quick (like 2year dev time) and rush to the market for profits.

Its like these people dont understand that quality takes time, and quality means better sales, and happy user experiances.
Rushing something quickly made out the door for short term profits isnt always the smartest move.

I just wanted another Star Wars RTS game, and I know there were at least two types of RTS SW games made back in the day. It's too much to ask for anything within the SW universe, put into a game these days. 

When Disney owns it, it has to appeal to everyone, not just us, which has also become a part of the problem for more games not being made, EA just happens to be the one holding the keys and being an absolute buffoon with the IP.
