Star Wars FOTOR (KOTOR spiritual successor) YAY
Directed by Casey Hudson OH NO

Casey is the reason Mass Effect has testosterone in it. He thinks leather jackets and jet planes are cool.

These are Casey Hudson's game director credits before he left Bioware. Aside from a blip when the doctors told him to make a weeaboo game that's a ******* great resume.

Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic (2003)
Jade Empire (2005)
Mass Effect (2007)
Mass Effect 2 (2010)

► Show Spoiler

It also seems unlikely that he would make another trilogy without a plan for the ending given what happened last time...

Well, he is responsible for Mass Effect 3 not having a satisfying or sensical ending. He didn't allocate resources to it until it was too late. Then they tried to hide behind their poor planning by claiming artistic expression. Then they released a patch to address surface complaints as an apology and added the yellow ending as a **** you to people who were unsatisfied.

If we were drowning in Mass Effect caliber sci-fi RPGs I'd be less forgiving. But we aren't and that's a bad thing.

[rusty_shackleford]

Todd Howard onstage.

It was all worth it for this moment.

[methoxetamine]

Was a fun show to watch as an E33 enjoyer. I can't wait to see more about Gang of Dragon from the OG Yakuza series creator (Toshihiro Nagoshi), I admire the balls of showing off the red Kamurocho gate in the trailer. I didn't even know he made his own studio since I'm a newfag to the series but it's easy to tell that he's why the series used to be so good and that it's been declining since he left. Didn't care about much else besides Phantom Blade Zero which I already was interested in
