What Would Matt Do

It may be the most unsurprising announcement ever, but I can’t tell you how much joy it brings me. You see, I’m a Star Wars geek. Not a Lucas is god and I care about the Star Wars history and universe geek, but more of a in spite of George’s inability to make good movies without others help I still love light sabers and force powers and that sound that lightsabers make when they clash geek. So with that in mind, I know Bioware is probably going screw it all up, but at least they aren’t Verant and they don’t have the idiot creator of The Vision™, so they are already steps above the last Star Wars game.

At they aren’t doing it in the current Star Wars lore. Doing a game in the past is by far the best way. Or even the future, assuming Jedi’s exist in the future of SW lore. Something where you can break the Jedi universe as we know it in the name of fun…

I’d love to see everyone be able to be Jedi AND since they are having other classes, those other classes be fun to play. I know that’s asking a lot, but hey, I’m like that. Also, I’d like the MMO to be fun in general. That’s asking even more from a first time MMO developer.

What Would Matt Do: I’d make a game where everyone can be a Jedi and let the NPCs be the other classes. That’s really where most Star Wars games fall down, requiring that some people are this or that or whatever. Or even better, I’d make it so everyone can wield the force if they so choose, so maybe if you aren’t a Jedi, you’re still awesome. Break the Star Wars lore in the name of fun. Also, this is pretty funny.
