I am done with Star Wars

The franchise has become too much about money and the next big thing i.e. the MMO. They really do not seem to care much about the fans anymore. Many people including me feel disappointed that LucusArts chose to leave KOTOR 3 by the side of the road and instead opt for something that will make them more money and keep people coming back for more. In my eyes they are taking the easy way out and just used the carpet bombing approach to the MMO and are throwing a lot of flashing things at the fans and hope for success.

They are also dumbing down the series and aiming it at children. I was a young (7) when i first saw the original Star Wars movies and was able to appreciate the brilliance of the original movies. I did not need to have the story dumbed down or made more interesting But now they made the prequels aimed more at children and made an animated series. I feel that the whole Star Wars brilliance is slowly being washed away in an attempt to keep the Star Wars name relevant to younger generation.

I hope for the sake of the Star Wars franchise that they start refocusing on the fans who have been around for years and I do not mean a couple of years like over a decade like me (12 years). I hope LucusArts starts to care more about the fans again.

In short I am done with the Star Wars franchise for now until maybe they can get their stuff back together. Recently they have not listened to the many hardcore fans of KOTOR including me who have been calling for KOTOR 3 but of course that is dead and gone.
