So it was announced today June 12th for what’s on the agenda for June 15th for E3 for EA. Most importantly, SWTOR ‘Knights of the Fallen Empire expansion’. Hype has been hitting the Twitter feed under #swtor and #faceyourdestiny hashtags.

  • Star Wars™: The Old Republic™ – The largest story-driven expansion to date, Knights of the Fallen Empire, marks a renewed focus on cinematic storytelling in Star Wars: The Old Republic. The expansion will deliver on the hallmarks of what makes a great BioWare™ game: new worlds to explore, new companions to recruit, and a dynamic story that players will be able to shape based on the choices they make.

Speculations has been hitting all fronts, hints as what’s to come. Even myself, that I have been looking at the following pictures thinking. New worlds, new companions to recruit. New worlds, let’s take that first. Not one world, but more than one. Could it be a couple more, a few more? Now the question is, which planets? Guesses? New companions, could it be Lana and Theron join us in our adventures? Or do you think it more than just one companion joining us?

The pictures above have me thinking, clones? The Grey Jedi’s? I’ve been looking closely at the lightsaber colors. They are not blue, green, or red. So, are they white, grey, gold? One outfit is black and the other white. Maybe something along the lines of keeping the balance to the force? A yin to yang? Republic Troopers all on the ground, and a dying Jedi. A Republic Starship crashed behind them? An epic battle? The full scene of this trailer is going to be an edge on your seat type. Or are we looking at the Fall of the Republic and the Keepers of the Peace, the Jedi Order? An Order 66 protocol, As I’m typing this up, I keep looking at these pictures thinking, ‘What else can I get out of these pictures?’. Could have the Gree created a superior soldier to wipe out the Republic? Or the Empire, or both? What about the Rakata? But the title of ‘Knights of the Fallen Empire’, and remember that the Republic is considered an empire.

What are your thoughts? I guess we’ll find out soon enough. But so far it looks exciting.

Stay tuned to The Balance Force.

    without open pvp, the game lacks a compelling reason to play.

    It’s got to be the rakata nestled from the rishi maze or the last space station has the emperor found them???

    Whether intentionally leaked info or not. I’m not getting my hopes worked up. I’ll be the only one probably that will truly be shocked if all the leaked info is correct. My experience is odd then most. Screenshots and etc really mean nothing in the age of photo shop, not saying that is what this is, but until the full announcement from BW/EA themselves. I’m just not jumping onto the bandwagon so to speak, guess you can say I like the element of surprize, and when something is spoiled for me, I won’t be impressed to play it or try it.

      Good point, so does that mean you’ll be surprised if it’s correct, and if it’s correct not want to try it?

        I have 8 lvl 60’s sittin on the Jedi server, just collecting dust since I don’t do the group stuff, nor the guild stuff, and I tried PVP, and dont care for it mostly, So it would be nice to blow the dust off them, but if it’s going to be just like that is explained, My element of surprize is gone, and I’ll probably be bored as I sit and wait for content chapts . to be released ..I don’t care to much for new comps, other then possibly of a new HK unit,
