"I don't know why the change of heart happened, because that was very clearly not an acceptable plan when we were working on Ragtag! "

Damn, that sucks, or there's a multiplayer component that we're simply not being told about in the pipeline...
is already out of the canon when Lucas made 2008 series.
But IIRC anakin vs asajj on yavin 4 still happend
I hope this scene can be canonized because it's genuinely good shit.
your dreams*All this talk reminds me of the reveal of the original Uncharted. Before Nathan Drake was "Nathan Drake"....based on the early release screenshots prior to gameplay reveal I remember everyone dismissing him as boring boob-less Tomb Raider.
Hope we get this wrong again. I have the utmost faith in a combat designer from the God of War series, a studio that crafted an amazing campaign with Titanfall, and a Director who helped craft some of the most epic set pieces in all of gaming.
Everybody have some faith....this hopefully gonna be the Star Wars game of our dreams!
Yeah true story. The panel was kind of interesting, but overall was pretty meh. Maybe they'll show a big slice at E3.
If we're to believe reports, EA lets Bioware and respawn do more or less what they want, so it's not that EA specifically ordered this, but at this point, maybe it'd have been better if they HAD played the tyrannical publisher and just made them do the thing their both good at.I saw this tweet on the Anthem subreddit and couldn't help but chuckle.
Well actually, BioWare Austin have pitched Star Wars games including another KOTOR. But, they were rejected. Likely by Lucasfilm as they are clearly reserving the KOTOR space for film/tv. Also, Amy Henning just recently commented about how the whole SP focus, no micro-transaction bent was definitely NOT a thing when she was working on Ragtag. She speculates that it's a change in strategy but that Fallen Order was also likely helped by: 1) It being in development before EA acquired Respawn and 2) Vince Zampella protecting the game as he is on the Executive Team at EA and thus can protect his team's projects in ways other studios cannot.
Thanks for the explanation. So it's more that EA wanted a live service game from both studios, but only Respawn has the means to act with some agency in the company.
I noticed that online retailers are selling the standard and deluxe versions for $10 off. Is this a common thing now and I've just not been paying attention?

That and Respawn's game had as far as we know a relatively smooth development and a pitch that was an easy sell. (Play as a secret Jedi)
Project Ragtag had a turbulent start to development, (although that was supposedly fixed before it was cancelled). It was also a crime story set within the SW universe. No Jedi, No Wookies, No beloved characters and No Gameplay innovations. Despite being exactly what it was sold as "Star Wars Uncharted" it turns out EA didn't want that game. They Wanted Star Wars FIFA, or a Han Solo game and they were getting Neither
Respawn had smoother development, a key selling/marketing point (a game about a Jedi) and they weren't owned by EA at a time when they started working on Fallen Order. They probably had more freedom in pursuing their projects than Visceral, which was one of EA's internal studios.
Project Ragtag had more rockier development, lacked clear vision and didn't had a key selling/marketing point. They also made an entry in a best-selling franchise (Battlefield Hardline) which sold below their projections. When it was rebooted into an open-world game, reason of cancellation wasn't really about a quality or being a singleplayer game, but time and resources that were required to do it right.
