Just wondering, for kotor 3, would you rather see city based regions or planets (Taris, Telos Citadel Station, Manaan,Anchorhead) Or more sparsely populated or completely wild regions or planets ( korriban, Most of Kashyyyk, Tatooine dune sea, some of Dantooine)?

Personally, I'd like to go back to Manaan, Korriban, and Telos. For other planets I'd like to see Derilia which I imagine to be like the coast of Greece or Sicily, and Coruascant I'd like to see the Jedi Temple.

I get the feeling that we'll be headed into the unknown region in search of Revan and/or the Exile, therefore I don't think we'll see very many city-like planets. I suspect that we'll start out on Telos, so we may see some city scapes there. I'm hoping for some more jungle planets (ala Dxun). Since we're in search of the True Sith, I'm hoping that we'll get to visit Yavin or even a Dagobah-like planet. Maybe some ancient sith cities on the outer rim, etc.

^Pretty much what Achilles said. I want to see some big cities like Telos and Coruscant, but as we will probably be heading into the Unknown Regions I think the most of architecture we will find is ancient ruins of cities, and mostly planets pretty much devoid of any kind of settlements.

All types. If you ask me.

with the unknown regions a very likely plot, I hope we get some old architecture like RobQel-Droma said.... very interested to see what the Devs do with the landscape, and planets

I'm open to anything, but I would really love to see Coruscant make it into the game. I'm sure they'll include Korriban again, and possibly Dantooine as it has played a major role in both games so far.

I think we'll go to both types of planets, but they'll probably be very different than they could have been in KOTOR II, what with a war going on and all.

Hopefully, we'll get to go to Coruscant... I mean, why wouldn't the True Sith attack it? It's the capital of the Republic, after all.

Mixture of both would be preferable, but would like to see more populated planets like Taris as apposed to Korriban in Kotor2

If we're going to get Korriban again, they need to make some changes..... with exception to heading into the caves, the Sith academy was very pourly developed and lacking for content.

It is. But in my opinion, the Republic has fallen and Corsucant is the capital of the Sith Empire.

I hope to see all types of planets (or else I'd be bored), and Coruscant has to be there.

Big planets, and lots of them.

Did anyone else feel a bit...cramped in Kotor II?

As for specifics, Ziost and/or Drumond Kaas would be nice, but other than that I'm not really too fussed provided we're not going back to old K1/K2 planets yet *again*.

If you mean the small areas, and little ammount of them, then yes. I did.

Yes very much so, which was something that i didn't feel in kotorGo back and play KotOR again and see if you still feel that way.

IIRC, the devs stated in their post mortem that many players felt as though the areas were smaller even though they were actually bigger. They thought they would be able to improve game play by minimizing area transitions, but it seems that almost no one noticed.

Actually, it was something I noticed during my latest replay of KotOR (Which I haven't yet completed this time...)

I like the city-based planets personally. I guess they are just more interesting to me.

I would like to see more of Telos like how it fared after the restoration effort. In reality, we would more likely see planets within the Unknown Regions. Some may be city like Planets and others like Dantooine

I lean towards more city-scape planets simply because they give me more opportunity to interact with people (since there's more of them to talk to....), visit shops to get stuff, hang out in cantinas, harass the guards, have more opportunities for LS/DS points, that kind of thing. The interaction is one of the reasons I like Kotor better than the pure 'hack-and-slash' kinds of games. Assuming we head off to the Unknown regions, I imagine that any worlds there are generally going to be sparsely populated, so I expect to see those kinds of planets, too. If there's going to be sparsely populated planets, though, make sure to have interesting surroundings to look at. If I can't chat with people, I'd like to have (within reason) some detailed landscapes and 'good cinematography'.

I don't care too much one way or another...but I definately do not want to go back to Manaan, those water creatures took forever to talk to!

I'd like a mix, like say ther is 8 planets I'd like 4 sparringly populated cities/towns and 4 high populated cities
