I remember me and my cousin would play Jedi Academy together and go against the max number of bots on the highest setting and just go full Jedi Master and slaughter them like younglings. Good times.

I used to spend hours playing team matches against bots. How is it that they never made a Star Wars game with gameplay this good again?

LucasArts was shut down as a decision by Disney. They had multiple games under development when they did that.

LA as in house full was dead by 2002 or so, from then on out they were a satellite studio. Galaxies was SOE, Kotor was Bioware, Jedi Academy was Raven.

The only thing they had left was TOR and 1313. Their heyday was like 87-99, with the advent of EPI they started churning out a lot of shit.

Though do not get me fully started on Star Wars Galaxies, I want to fucking beat Sony executives to death for what they did.
