Who from you guys has already played this awesome game, and desire to see it beautifully presented the way Age II: DE was?  
They already have a complete reworked Age of Empires II engine. Just imagine this with Age II: DE graphics:

What do you people think? Any chances for this to happen? Disney loves the fans money, and I’m sure it would make tons of it 🤑

Hahaha no, absolutely not! I’m done precisely for the reasons you mentioned. This one is only one more frustration on a long road of sorrow and disappointment.  
When I first watched The Force Awakens, I’ve embrace it, as we had a long time without any new movies, until I realized it was basically episode IV all over again. For God’s sake, what a lazy script.  
But, when The Last Jedi came in… at that moment I was definitely done with them. I have no regrets for have spent my money on The Rise of Skywalker, at least. I watched it at home some days ago. WTF.  
About EA, somewhat Jedi: Fallen Order broke the circle of disappointment since Battlefront for some people. I haven’t played the game yet, but it looks good. A single “single player” gem on a sea of EA Battlefronts, unfortunately.

Crappy sequel, yes, EA controlling the games, meh. They didn’t do that bad imo(other than money grabs)  
Fallen Order and Battlefront 2 are some of the best star wars games ever

And before I get necro thread busted, @ExemptedScarf68 put a link to his thread, I didn’t go surfing through the forums

fallen order is good but very linear.  
battlefront 2 is good NOW - but the launch was an absolute fiasco due to the lootbox bullcrap they tried to pull.  
now they just need to tell us where our next star wars single player rpg is.

and no - the original battlefront 2 is better then the dice game - furthermore if were talking best star wars games ever Kotor and Kotor 2 take the absolute cake.

I said “some of the best” not the best. If I was to pick my favorite star wars game, it would be either Republic Commando or the first Kotor

no, just pointing out that fallen order was a test bed. EA didn’t think it would do well. they were literally surprised by how many sales a single player game got.

therefore they should absolutely fix the shortcomings of fallen order in the sequel

Fair enough. A lot of people think that it is supposedly a franchise due to the Jedi: Fallen order

Yes, but I don’t think so… the devs already asked Disney in 2019 and Disney said they weren’t interested in a remaster… but maybe we could see it for the 25th anniversary next year… an SGBW with the 2 DE graphics would be incredible, very fluid, with buildings falling from Republic/CIS/Imperìal/Rebel jets and bomber. The only thing they’d have to do is rearrange a lot of things in the campaigns to fit the current lore…And add new stories from the new trilogy…

1. Rey Skywalker (from her humble beginnings on Jakku to the final battle against Palpatine on Exegol) (what we saw in the last trilogy)

2. Kylo Ren (the same from Kylo Ren’s perspective, the battles of Takodada and Crait) and perhaps an alternate ending where Kylo Ren decides not to ally with Rey and remains with Palpatine as his grandfather did, and Palpatine manages to destroy the Resistance on Exegol and rebuild his Empire, now without any opposition.

3. Ahsoka (from when we saw her in the animated film The Clone Wars alongside Obi-Wan and Anakin to her series after the fall of the Empire)…

Maybe also a Lord of the Rings DLC? We already have many LOTR mods.

Jokes aside, I think it is more appropriate to release SWGB as a separate game, which they can add new DLCs to it later.

Yes, there are plenty of new stories to pick from to make new campagins: the clone wars, Ahsoka, Andor. But please, skip the sequel trilogy and Rey Palpatine…

Of course, that would make more sense, since even though it uses the Genie Engine, it was always a separate game… it would be a mistake to include it in AoE 2, since it could never attract new players being just DLC, like what happened to AoE 1 in Return of Rome…

> [@TeacherTony](#):

They won’t do it. Whether we like it or not, the sequel trilogy is canon, and they’ll try to shoehorn it in anywhere… Let’s remember that the prequels (and Return of the Jedi) were also hated at the time, and over time they became cult classics…

This game needs it so badly too. It’s janky, kinda slow, and the graphics were outdated before it even came out. It needs a DE so bad.
