Know your lore: Canderous Ordo

Canderous Ordo, also known as Mandalore the Preserver (Te Taylir Mand’alor in Mando’a), was leader of the Mandalorians in the time following the Jedi Civil War, and the first Mandalore since the end of the Mandalorian Wars. A veteran soldier, he fought during both conflicts as well as in the Great Sith War. He joined the Jedi Revan in his quest for the Star Forge and traveled with the Jedi Exile during the First Jedi Purge. He united the scattered clans of the Neo-Crusaders, even as he stood beside the Exile against the Sith Triumvirate. After the destruction of Malachor V, Canderous parted ways with her and awaited Revan’s return from the Unknown Regions readying for a war with an unknown threat.

We Need More RPGs Set in Space

Seriously, there's a whole wide universe out there. Why are there so few RPGs that focus on space travel and alien planets?

No mention of Outer Worlds? Good journalisming.

While true, I prefer a serious space rpg and not one that’s goofy/humorous hard to explain

Outer Worlds felt like an incomplete game. Something was off. Not saying it was a bad game but it wasn't great. Probably the only action RPG that you couldn't even throw grenades in the game. Now Starfield can be that next big game in space

Ataraxias1871d ago

It's not a question that the game is incomplete, the devs sort of admitted it themselves. They said they didn't have the resources to balance the game for different builds, and so just made all items/ammo really plentiful so anyone could beat with whatever they had. If they can't do that, it's not a stretch to think there were other corners cut.

Don't know what it was but OW didn't feel right. It was missing it's charm and felt incomplete. But I do think given a bigger budget and more development time it could be something special

I do wonder if Microsoft will have two developers working on fallout games at the same time. One being bethesda and other bring OW devs who did FONV

TheColbertinator1871d ago

The Outer Worlds felt more like Borderlands than Mass Effect or any of the Star Wars games.

Unironically yes. Not even worth calling it a space rpg.

I'd like to see Paramount invest in video game development, because I can totally see a Star Trek game being great.

Getting to explore the universe in a RPG Star Trek game that takes inspiration from Mass Effect and the Outer Worlds for it's RPG mechanics has huge potential.

As for the exploration part of the game having it take inspiration from No Man's Sky, the Outer Wilds and Freelancer would be great.

SaveFerris1872d ago

I think I'd prefer an original IP rather than one based on the existing property. That way the developers won't be constrained by the lore. But there is nothing wrong with using Star Trek as an inspiration.

Godmars2901871d ago

Star Trek online is likely is as close as you're going to get on that.

ApocalypseShadow1871d ago (Edited 1871d ago )

I'll agree to this. New RPG stories set in space.

Course, Phantasy Star back then had futuristic weapons and space travel. I still want PS5. Well...both PS5s. Lol. But I'm talking about a sequel to the series and not the console. PS Online is fine. But I want the old series gameplay back. Loved traveling to the other planets. Was very innovative back then. Created a sense of wonder and exploration.

IMissJimRyan1871d ago

I think we need more games set anywhere away from medieval eurpean fantasy. Good Lord, I am really sick of elves, orcs and friends.

343_Guilty_Spark1871d ago

You said it. It's so much culture out there beside Euro-medieval fantasy...much more!

Vegamyster1871d ago

Well, we do have the perfect foundation for a space RPG: https://www.youtube.com/wat...

staticall1871d ago

IMO, we need more good RPGs. I couldn't care less if they set in space, under the sea, in future, current times or in medieval times, or in prehistoric even.

I would take Mass Effect-like game set in Ancient Greece over another Dragon Age II. Or Dragon Age: Origins-like set in current time over Deus Ex: Invisible War and so on.

If you are anything like me, a lot of what you do for work, for fun, and for staying in touch with friends depends on the great and mighty World Wide Web. So, imagine what would happen if the gang of neighborhood cats chewed through the power cords, cutting off your electricity. Or the alien hackers from outer space sent a destructive virus that crumbles the infrastructure of the internet in a matter of seconds. Devastating disasters like this could come in more mundane forms as well. Maybe your parents turn off your service or you are going on a trip to a remote, Wi-Fi-less destination.
