Why don't they set it 100 years after Episode VI and call it "Star Wars: Knights of the NEW Republic" instead?Knights of the New Republic, eh? Apparently you weren't the only one who had this idea...
Has anyone read this 1UP.com interview with Obsidian CEO Feargus Urquhart from August 2004?

1UP: Is Obsidian looking at any other their past franchises to pick up, or do you have a full plate right now?
Urquhart: Right now we're pretty full-plate, but KOTOR II is about to wrap up, so we're looking for something else. There've been some big changes at LucasArts recently, so right now we're kind of in a state of flux over whether we'll work with them some more or not. Certainly we'd love to do a KOTOR III if they were interested in one. We've also been trying to talk LucasArts into the idea of making a Knights of the New Republic. That would be really cool; you could have cameos and everything. It's only been a year, essentially, between the two KOTORs, and I think it'll be important to do something new with the series. EDIT:
But this game's acronymn would be KotNR . Doesn't roll off the tongue quite as nicely as KotOR, does it? :smirk2:
