Oh it’s dumber than that. We’ve had tons of games with Jedi before. 11 years before the Star Wars Jedi series we had it’s predecessor, The Force Unleashed. That game, and it’s sequel, were freaking dope action-adventure games.

And before that, we had the Knights Of The Old Republic RPGs. There were a bunch of tie-in games for the prequel trilogy. And in the 90s we had the Jedi Knight series on old school windows and Macintosh.

So what happened in that 11 year gap between the action adventure series?

Battlefront.

“Why make games when we can make virtual crack instead?”
