I'm afraid if it's ever going to be made it'll be some mediocre action game instead of proper RPG. If it end up being something like Baldurs Gate then I'd be happy, but I suppose this franchise under Disney is too normie nowadays. There used to be many Star Wars games across all genres, from strategies to racers to complex flight sims, but I don't see them doing anything hardcore but a generic action game.

I posted in another thread about this somewhere, but the original's D&D 3.x ruleset was bizarre and, frankly, awful. I don't want to play that again.

A larian-style turn based RPG could be interesting, if the system was solid. But I feel like there's still this lingering idea that players don't want complexity, despite the continuous success of Larian. But maybe disney is looking to aim higher? Meh.

I wouldn't mind it being an action game, so long it's more tactical and not just a button masher. Or an RPG with Skyrim style combat.
