I dont think I get it. I watched all the star wars movies. Is there a CGI or something I'm missing?

Yeah, but I read all the newer ones:

Han Solo Trilogy
Boba Fett Series
Jedi Knight series

Almost all were about the future...

I'm checking out that website now

will be interesting to see during what time frame they place this game as the rule of two came into play around 1000 BBY so if its anything after that then the game is a lie h:

they already based a game on the second sith war with raven and malek and the outcast

POSSIBLY exar kun or naga sadow timeframe? not sure, will watch with interest

Looks good. Have to see actual game play though before I make any decisions

upon further thinking i am EXTREMELY interested to see when they place this as in the video he mentions the republic assuming the sith were gone ... up until essential the rule of two the sith empire controlled a number of planets and was mostly known to the republic. the great hyperspace war and the raven / malek timeframe was a point when the republic knew of the sith empire and there was an uneasy accord and was followed shortly by the rise of bane and the rule of two ... its only prior to bane and after the 100year darkness that this game could fall within approved cannon
