Satelliteyears0o: in my ideal future, EA realizes the major potential of SWTOR and invests heavily to compete against WoW and bolsters as well as righting the ship at broadsword.

.001% this happens tho but one can dream.

ThiefKingofLegend: I hyped this vid! If SWTOR gets nuked I will never touch anything EA does ever again!

hanesate: Hopefully the fact that even this dev team has been generating a positive cash flow will be enough to keep them out of the line of fire long enough for them to show what they can do with 8.0

TheNebdar: I think we are safe.

But Broadsword is playing safe too because:

They didn't call the 9.0 and expansion

They didn't release the date of update

They didn't release any info about 15th Anniversary

But also remember working on supporting DX12 isn't a work that you do for maintenance mode game.... you do it for game that you have SOLID plans what you want to do at least 1-2 years ahead.

Also anytime Bad Dark Side Sith can happen

RavennaS.E: Let's hope everything is good.

khazzeron: The only thing that will kill it is Disney. If another company wants to do a new Star Wars MMO and they throw enough money at it, SWTOR will go the way of SWG.

jordonavant5153: I don't want SWTOR to disappear I fucking love SWTOR so so fucking much!

Tonystarkes888: Thank god broadsword have it, if BioWare still owned it we would be fucked

AndreasScout: To know exactly the structure you should have access to the contracts... which only broadsword has and i bet money they even dont know which way the wind is blowing. I think they are laying low to not be noticed BUT i have my doubts that would work. Ever since the big wig investors got into gaming sector they ruined more than they saved or created. Why is that? because they want to see 50-75% profit per year.... and when they dont see that they demand more involvement ( sometimes with certain activists being let in). Is it possible that Disney has a say in this? i dont know. I did hear that the subscribers for SWTOR are wobbly but that is a rumor again. Only thing we can do is wait and see. but knowing EA overlord mode.... dont get your hopes up.

WiShTheRapper: SWTOR may be one of the few exceptions where I wouldnt mind if they found a way to implement LLM tech to facilitate more substantial development.

whaterverman479: SWTOR isnt getting shut down, these videos scaring people are ridiculous should be taken down honestly (or at least change the title and thumbnail), SWTOR is a big money maker, and a very "cheap" game, "cheap" as in it costs almost nothing to keep running, its passive income for EA because its a subscription based game.....EA just shared the frostbite engine with broadsword for the directX12 update as well...all youre doing is driving new players away from playing / subbing

JoeAhmadGuitar: Swtors player base could be dramatically improved if they included a few things: flying mounts, more dynamic encounters, more fun cutscenes like using the escape pod in your ship , more areas to planets, and perhaps some more space exploration in your ship, and of course new endgame stuff . I’m not sure if they could use AI voice actors , but that’s also a possibility.

tameelah3839: My problem with all of this is that the silence is not encouraging people to continue to subscribe, that in itself will not help the game. The fact they haven't even given us anything about the 15th anniversary is speaking volumes on things too and it is not for the good of the game.

DarthIskunniss: I'm not worried too much, but like I said if it ever happens I will be going down with the ship. Glad you got into a good guild. I'm a part of the Outcast/Exile's End family a great bunch of people and best guild I have been a part of in the past 14 years. Except back about 13 years ago.

filidhdeklend893: If they get the message that the Bioware closure sent out and start giving us more Revans and Therons and less Taus and Shaes they should be all right. IF they get the message. We shall see.

matthewpreston513: Maybe some off the mass effect Devs will move over to the swtor dev team

rheahinshaw7471: Is Nemesis light or dark? I have a loose smuggler running around Star Forge. May the Beard be with you!

shadows.82: I wish they would make this game for console

HonorboundWolf: Star Wars needs a new mmo like Galaxies but with action combat

rypere1788: Even Keith wouldn't know. They wouldn't be like "Heads up mate, we're laying your guys off", because people would leave immediately. Thus, they only say this when it's time to pack your desk up and go. You'll know the same day they do.

christianbavle: As long as the whales keep it in the green, SWTOR is safe

theenigma7685: My ideal turn of events if the devs from Bioware after getting fired and just got a job at Broadsword and continue on working on Swotor with other devs.

But yeah i also get it this is the time they should do a live stream and talk about the concerns of their community.

paulcoderre: EA screwed me, I wanted to start a new account but their game system will not let me, it says I have an account, i do but it won't let me in, and it loops in a stupid way that never ends for recovery of my password and email. i contacted them and the problem is i moved 3x and upgraded my PC 4x in 10 years in that time i started with a better email company than the one i used. i spent a lot of $$ however my Anger has increased to the point where I no longer care about EA, i hope that idiot company just dies.

j0ma2_GG: Until when do they have the SW license? That's the real question I think, and one of the main reasons Galaxies went down.

I think SWTOR is safe for now if there is no problem with the SW license. For EA, SWTOR is currently outsorced, they only need to put the hat to collect money. It is not as they would have 200 people of their own working on it and paying their payrolls. At the end, changing from BioWare to Broadsword could have been the life saver.

Eric-l2p4q: ita ll about if it will sell. biware forgot how to make games that make a profit. starwars games can alot of times sell on starwars name alone. its more stuff to a already made game so it will be less of a risk then biowae working on mass effect for about 6 years with little to show.

kirtwilson49: Be stupid if they did

LibertyJack1776: They should get Ai to recode SWTOR for unreal engine and all new graphics.
