The stills look nice, I guess.

I have to admit though that the thought of new worlds and companions sounds a little overambitious, and well, worrisome.
Yeah, I don't see this project hitting half the goals it intends to.

Only reason projects like Skywind have gotten as far as they have is because they're supported by a modding community that's had literally decades to grow and develop. Even then, the realities of game development have it hard. I don't think anyone told them how difficult it is to create functional tilesets until they started working on them themselves, for example.

I've seen so many remixes/remasters/re-imaginings of games start out. Finish, not so many.

I'll take an interest in this when they have a fully playable version, until then its just a pipe dream
Agree. I used to follow a bunch of fan games, only to watch them slowly die(or stop updating, which is pretty much the same thing). One in particular was Indiana Jones and the Fountain of Youth. Same visual style as Fate of Atlantis, even got a playable demo.
And then it just stopped updating about 4 years ago. And it had been in development for a good 5 or so years before that.

It's one of many reasons I stop getting excited about things like this. When a project is close to completion, or actually done, that's when I start giving a shit anymore.

It's a rare achievement: they are remaking KotOR so it looks absolutely nothing like KotOR.

Hmmm, not sure if I'd want to play KotOR from a 1st person view. >.>

Well... it looks Star Wars-y, I'll give it that, but it doesn't look like KotOR.

Not every remake or re-imagining is good; they tried making Spyro look more like a realistic dragon and it didn't really work out for them (though that wasn't because of the designs so much as DotD was just not a good game). Also I agree, not diggin' the first-person-view thing.

That was my thought... they have seriously lost most of the Star Wars aesthetic in these pictures.
