Oops, my bad....the spinoff part confused me a bit, english is not my native language and some of your "terms" I still have to learn. I didn't know they were that close too, to be honest. Still hope they take over though, hehe.
About the comment "Why do we think LA/Bio will be any better than LA/SOE"
There are many ways ideas about how things should be setup can be implimented. SOE can honestly manipulate the information to get LA to agree to it by painting a false picture that states SOE is doing what is being required. Even though it is not in the spirit of what the requirement is.
Lucas has always targeted younger people with the Star Wars trilogy. Hence why Star Wars 1 PM had Jar Jar. SOE probably told LA that the best way to attract a younger audiance and to get subscriptions up is to change the MMO to an FPS and make it playable on the PS-3. Depending on how SOE sold it to LA it could possibly come across as a good idea. How is LA supposed to know that is wrong, the whole reason they sold the license to SOE because SOE wanted to make a SW game and paid LA for the right to do so. In addition, LA isn't involved in the day to day ops because they sold the license to a company under the contract that they would be true to the SW story and whether or not they are true to story they get that info from SOE personnel.
I could go on for hours but I won't. Bioware has a proven track record on creative implimention and management. LA has very creative ideas and has a franchise that is the best SCI-FI genre in the existence. Bioware needs to just follow the story of SW to get the game right. It was supposed to be a game that allowed us to live in that time period and be any type of normal person and have any job we wanted to have. If you get lucky enough you become a Jedi. It was never intended that everyone be darth vader or luke skywalker. If you want that buy KOTOR.
