Making Up Toons?

I am still waiting for Chewbacca's familly from the Holiday special. (IDC what you say, this movie is canon!)

CG - I get that the IP is expensive (& EA have shown with FIFA that they won’t pay those license fees forever) but if times are tough - well my 6 year old daughter has decided to lend you a hand. Here’s a new toon you can have absolutely for free - on us

First time I've actually smiled reading something on this forum in a long time

Now that, Mr. Clause, was fantastic.

I'm really confused by this new toon. Why are you creating characters when there are so many the player base has been asking for? Hondo? Saw? Ruhk? This is really silly, you all.

Also, why did you remove the Malgus packs from the post? Didn't think we would notice? LOL :disappointed:

What game company wouldn't jump on the opportunity on creating their own toon?

Its part of their collaboration with SWTOR, so this droid might be making an appearance in SWTOR MMO too

Also, this droid is far better and interesting than Saw Guerrera

Um, no. No way. LOL

And you don't jump on creating a new toon when there are so many available to choose from already that require less work to make and will excite the fan base. Instead you create a toon no one knows anything about and has zero nostalgia for anyone anywhere.

Tbf, I feel the same about revan, malgus, malak...

Fair for sure. They mean nothing to me either, but I know they are in the SW Universe. Regardless though, a lot of people wanted those toons badly. I guess even 10 wanting them would be 10X the amount wanting this box of bolts hahaha

From a design standpoint, it's much easier and more fulfilling to make something from scratch. Also, there's the whole SW:TOR collaboration going on right now. Lots of other reasons to make something new instead of pulling from existing media.

There are plenty like me that don't know most of the characters in the game and don't really care all that much about specific characters. I care about the kits and what they can do for my gameplay. Not once have I paid money for or worked hard for a character because it was a character I liked from some other media.
