    Greetings all:

    Since ever I have been waiting for a true Sith game.
    Not like what we saw thusfar, the KotOR duology, for one, where we could play a "Jedi"-Sith.
    With this I mean, that the character was all but Sith like.

    What I would like to see, basically, is a "behind the scene" style game, where you as child is taken from home to become a Sith.
    How you are brainwashed, manipulated, shaped into the Sith ideology.
    How you are trained, what tests you have to endure, before your final test that will give you the Darth title.
    And then... you will be send out, sabotaging missions, infiltration missions, assassination missions, ...

    But... and here comes the question, where can I drop my egg?
    Where can I give my ideas out?
    I've been looking for official forums, but they are about as officially as my dog a Star Wars employee is.
    And, no, my dog is not an official SW employee, should you have missed that. :)

    Thank you beforehand:
    The Xogger

    This isn't really a question for Comms. What I'll do is move it over to Community and tag it as a Gaming thread.

    I'm going to be nice and just let you know that video game companies don't really accept pitches from the general public. If you want to do this sort of thing, you have to become a well-known member of the industry specifically hired for this sort of thing.

    It's not a videogame, but our Welcome New User forum has a Sith Academy thread., You might want to check it out. It has links to other Sith-oriented threads as well.

    The Sith Storylines in SWTOR are pretty good.

    ok, the Sith Warrior is pretty good. The other one is just kinda there.

    I had an idea for a game back in 2015. I told my friend John Knoll about it. You know in the A New Hope title crawl where it says "Rebel spaceships, striking from a hidden base, have won their first victory against the evil Galactic Empire. During the battle, Rebel spies managed to steal secret plans to the Empire’s ultimate weapon, the DEATH STAR, an armored space station with enough power to destroy an entire planet."

    So in the game, you play as one of the members of a rag-tag team that works for the rebellion. You partner with your teammates on missions where you get to know each other, then eventually you steal the plans, but the game ends with you dying even though you succeed in your mission. Eh, nevermind, it would never work.

    Serious suggestion: make this game in Dreams and I will play it.

    Thank you. :)
    Thank you.
    Not so familiar with gaming industry, I fear...
    Thank you.
    I will check this out in a bit.
    Precisely.
    That's why I loved to see a true Sith game, the Sith being fleshed out, explained...
    Why precisely in Dream Engine?
    Serious question, I'm curious.

    I'm also as patient as a Sith Lord, with the temperament of a Krayt Dragon... *grins* ;)

    Greetings Xo, and now some questions if we may....

    Have you ever been in a Turkish prison?

    Why do you never see baby pigeons?

    Why is there only one monopolies commission?

    Also is it "Ex Oh Groroth" kind of like that one Valiant comic or just "Zogroroth" with some edge?

    1) No. Never been in jail.
    2) They cannot fly yet, once they do, they are quite big.
    3) Because monopoly means dominated by one, not more.
    Did you know, that the Rakatan made this board game in origin?
    "Zogroroth" with a Sith blade edge. ;)

    Well, it doesn't even have to be the general manager. Maybe I could be like, an announcer. Like a colour man. You know how I always make those interesting comments during the game.

    Yeah. Yeah. You make good comments.

    What about that?

    Well, they tend to give those jobs to ex-ballplayers and people that are, you know, in broadcasting.

    Well, that's really not fair.

    I say make it in Dreams because that's the easiest place to make a game on your own and share it with people.

    BTW:
    Where please can we speak of SW related things?
    For instance, I would like to see how people thought of The Force Unleashed, and why/why not it should be canon.
    And other, obvious SW related topics.

    I have not found a SW Discussion Board (or, I somehow missed it).
    Thank you.

    Hmmm, haven't seen a Games thread...
    Movies, books, ... sure, but not games?
    Yes, been there...
    It's a... fan club thingy... not so my thing, lol...
    I was looking for a place where I could theorize and discuss SW things... as per the example... :)

    Maybe, if it does not exist, create a SW Theory and Discussion thread? ;)
