A full remake, apparently, with the voice-actors re-hired&all that.  Not just a simple remaster.

The game is also coming on PC, not just PS5.  Sony is investing big in making all these remasters/remakes for its console.

I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein's brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops.

Idiots notwithstanding, she doesn't have an easy job, that's for sure. I wonder how extensively it will be rewritten. Like, the whole "you're Revan" twist won't have the same punch now, for example.

Rewrite? judging by how the last movies plot was written we will found out Bastila was Revan's twin sister :P

I don't think they'll rewrite major parts, but they may add content that was cut and adjust things to make it fit.

Oooheee! Crazed SJW v Crazyed Triggered gamer snowflakes.  Maybe I'll buy it just to take both sides.

Maybe they can combine it with the second game, which was half-finished when it cam eout.
PDH!

What is the substance behind the "she's a crazed SJW" sentiments?

Because.  Probably?  It doesn't take much to be labeled a crazed fanatic these days.
PDH!

Personally, I think there's some content that could bear rewriting ... like basically all the dark side choice dialogue so it's maybe more, how to phrase this ... subtle? :P

So it's more of a she's-a-woman-and-gamberbro-outrage-generates-clicks type thing, it seems?

I mean this is a theme in Star Wars - there's no slow slide into the dark side ever :lol:

You're talking about the universe where Anakin Skywalker is murdering children like 5 minutes into his dark side tour  :P

I like how things get pronounced woke before they are even made. Personally it can be woke so long as it is good.

It'd be harder to get the outrage high though. 
PDH!
