The Old Republic Script Length VS KOTOR Script

Ever wonder when the producers of Star Wars: The Old Republic tell you that we’re not getting a Knights of the Old Republic 3 because The Old Republic is like having a KOTOR 3,4,5,6,7,8,9 and 10 all in one, just how big the game actually is? Well they aren’t lying to us anyway.

In actuality, The Old Republics script is 10 times as big as Knights of the Old Republics. Yup, that’s right, there are 10 times more lines of dialogue in The Old Republic, so really, it could be considered that this is KOTOR 3-10 and maybe even more. That’s pretty amazing when you think about it, just imagine how long this game is going to take, it’s going to be quite incredible.

According to Ohlen, a quick estimate would put the line count in the hundreds of thousands or if you want to get technical, “approximately 40+ novels worth of content.” and also according to Ohlen, after the game is complete, the audio team at LucasArts would have put in over 4,000 hours in voice-over sessions. That’s crazy!

This game is looking more and more appealing to me all the time. At first, I was kinda disappointed, but now i’m starting to get a little excited, don’t get me wrong though, I would still absolutely love to see a Knights of the Old Republic 3.
