Baldur's Gate/Dragonlance would both be Dungeons and Dragons based games. We haven't seen a Dragon Lance game in sheesh 20 years or so, not since SSI's Gold Box Series of dnd crpgs. I followed a few forums back when Wizard's changed the ruleset and it seemed (at least from the people posting) that is was not well recieved at all. Looking at the colossal screw up that DDO is I wonder if its the new ruleset or the Eberron setting that played the bigger part in that.
With the development team that Bioware has started with it would seem natural for them to do a Star Wars based game and KOTOR is probably the best star wars game since Xwing vs Tiefighter. With the whole 30th anniversary thing I am sure Lucas would really like a better representation of Star Wars in the MMO space.
Mass Effect and Dragonage are still unreleased games. While I know that I personally can hardly wait for these 2 games it would be highly presumptuous of Bioware to be working on an MMO for an unreleased and untested property. While that could be a boon it would also have its drawbacks. I recall reading somewhere that Mass Effect is slated for two more sequels... I could see an mmo being the third part maybe
Jade Empire... meh... it was an alright game. The batch of kung fu oriented mmo's that are currently out and coming out all play rather crappily. I don't really see bioware doing a kung fu mmo.
I have no idea what they are working on, but being Bioware I expect alot from them. Just hope they are able to keep their usual levels of polish and fun while bringing an engaging mmo.
i hope it isn't another middle age MMO, or wowist style mmo
I WISH it is Kotor, but i know it is nearly impossible(2 SW MMO in the same time, quite impossible, it will kill SWG)
mass effect might be a possibility, since Bioware really focus on it this year(2 novel), but Heroengine can hardly create the atmosphere in Mass effect since it is so realistic
anyway, i just want a god damn great sci-fi MMO even it is not SW

LucasArts just announced Lego Star Wars: The Complete Saga just a little bit ago. Basically nothing more than the first two LSW games packaged together with a little extra content. I presume that if they announce any other games during CIV, they will be just as uninspiring as that one was.
Don't expect anything KOTOR-related at C IV, MMO or otherwise. They wouldn't announce a high-profile game like that right now, because all it would do is steal thunder away from The Force Unleashed, which they are pimping the hell out of right now.

Guys look i would love a KOTOR MMORPG like the next star wars fan but do you relly think lucas arts or bioware is going to say any think about this weekend.Do i think bioware is making kotor mmorpg.I hope so.But lucas arts will not let happen.But theycould be making a kotor 3.

At this moment an Kotor MMO would be more profit then a Koter 3 in my opinion
Originally posted by Brenelael Knights of the Old Republic definitely! Fantasy MMO's have been done to death and we really need something to replace the disaster that was SWG. If anyone could pull off a good Star Wars MMO it would be Bioware. Bren
Even tho I didn't play SWG I'd prefer Knights of the Old Republic. I'm kind of tired of all fantasy games, even if many of them are good, they are kind of overrunning the market. Soon Sci-fi games will be the new trend and everyone is going to be asking for more fantasy games...
I know that but tell lucas arts that.I mean look ign have kotor 3 as a rumoured in development but not kotor online.So that tells me that kotor 3 will liky happen.But i want a kotor mmorpg.And if you go ign forums and kotor 1 forums on biowares website they all want a kotor 3.

They are not sayng that they are making kotor mmorpg this weekend they will msot liky do it at this years e3 but i do hope they do say some thing but i dont think they will.
I'd like them to work on one of their own IP's because Lucas Arts sucks and they'd probally make it 360 only anyways lol. So i'd say make Mass Effect mmorpg, the art is much better than Star Wars anyways.

I really want a good Star Wars mmo! SOE had it with SWG but they seriously dropped the ball!
i am ordering Fallout and Dark forces right now..
Other being a MMO based on the original D&D world - Greyhawk

I have been saying this since BioWare Austin was first formed: FalloutOnline.com is registered to Gordon Walton.
Amongst all the crazy speculation, that has remained the strongest evidence for anything that I have seen about this whole ordeal. Just saying.
when they announce
if it will be Star Wars i will start to my Bloody Waiting of release date
if not i will sell my pc and retire from gaming.
