Taris, really?

"Zayne Carrick, a young Padawan training at the Jedi Academy on Taris"

Having not read the comic, I can't confirm or deny, but it seems odd that there is a Jedi Academy on Taris. I've only played through KotOR, but in that (admittedly after the time of this comic), it was a planet entirely subsumed by a supercity. That, and there's no mention of there being an academy there on the list of Star Wars planets..

Yup. Zayne and the others were trained (or training, at least) on Taris. There is only a small Jedi Academy with five masters on the planet. I suppose it's more of an 'informal' Academy, really. Tormentress (talk) 16:23, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

E3 2008 KotOR MMO Reports

I'd just like to note that while several articles state that John Riccitiello has confirmed a KotOR MMORPG in development by BioWare, there is no actual proof that he did indeed do so, nor is there any official verification. This, coupled with the fact that there have been dozens of cases where similar "confirmation" has previously been made, and the fact that BioWare staff refused to comment, citing again that they "do not comment on rumors", seeds a little doubt - surely, if EA were planning to announce the MMORPG, the development team and PR people at BioWare would have received the memo? The fact that these reports are widely published by now is no surprise, nor do I believe it adds any more weight to the rumor's "factual" basis since all of the prior rumors which have now been disproved also went viral in a manner almost identical to this.

Until there is some proof or official/reliable verification - as outlined in WP:PROVEIT and WP:SOURCES - then I propose that we leave the mention of this 'announcement' as a mere neutral acknowledgement of the reports in the Sequel Plans section of this article; pending either verification from an official source, and/or proof that John Riccitiello did actually make this statement. Neither have thus far been found nor provided, which basically means that the "confirmation" of the MMORPG is merely hearsay at this point.

When proof or verification from a notable - preferably official - source pops up, then we can discuss reworking the information as established fact, and cover the topic of how we should best integrate it into the current KotOR game series articles. But until then, we should tread carefully not to publish facts, until we have our facts straight.

Can we agree that this is fair? Mikouen (talk) 15:30, 20 July 2008 (UTC)

Condé Nast Portfolio conducted an interview with Riccitiello in which he confirmed that BioWare will be developing a Knights of the Old Republic MMO. Portfolio appears to be a reputable business magazine that qualifies as a reliable source. It isn't as solid as EA or BioWare coming out with a press release, but unless there's a problem with Portfolio as a source, then I believe this interview meets Wikipedia's policy on verifiability.

Cancelled KOTOR 3

There is no information here about the cancelled KOTOR 3 game. Wookieepedia has information on it here: http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Star_Wars:_Knights_of_the_Old_Republic_3

the source which they got the information about it is from the official LucasArts book Rogue Leaders: The Story of LucasArts. --Victory93 (talk) 01:44, 20 November 2009 (UTC)

Why is The Old Republic on the Knights of the Old Republic page?

I don't see why Star Wars: The Old Republic is part of Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic page. The Old Republic isn't part of the KotoR franchise; the only commonality these two IP's have is that they take place in a much earlier time period in the Star Wars legends universe (ToR takes place ~300 years after the Kotor games). — Preceding unsigned comment added by Scyphe (talk • contribs) 05:03, 16 February 2022 (UTC)

Because sources refer to it as such, and it has multiple tie ins to it. -- ferret (talk) 14:29, 16 February 2022 (UTC)
