Damn Disney to the seven Corellian Hells

Hey, it was Lucas who decided to sell. All damnation goes unto him   ;)

So this is official? I'd heard rumors that Disney was considering polishing up BFIII and releasing it to the masses...a naive hope, I guess. Frankly, there isn't a real person to put the blame on. Lucas was pushed into a corner, really, his children apparently weren't interested in inheriting the company, but then again who would want to take on that responsibility and risk destroying your father's legacy? There really wasn't anyone else he could sell it to, either. It could be worse. He could have sold it to EA...*shudder*

Disney is smart they want money the best way to get that is to keep the fans happy. so speak up if you don't like something spread the word.

I'll see Disney buried before I allow their dominion.

And now they say that one of the games they were probably working on was Battlefront III. And that Disney had to reevaluate "the use of violence in their video games."

Star Wars is doomed.

I don't know of any Disney games with any sort of modding community. I do know Disney is very protective of their intellectual property, and that other companies have shut down mods for less. It all depends on how much Disney knows about it, what future games they intend to make, or cares about alienating a large portion of gamers.

but i fear, the only thing we can do is wait and see what happens.
But on the other hand:
Does anybody know if there are existing mods to Disney produced games?
If that were the case there could/would be reason to hope.

Yeah. I have better things to do than to get sued by Disney.

Yeah... no. We have no intention of trying to sneak around a cease and desist order if it were to happen.

I'm not a rebel fan but to quote Leia, "The more they tighten their grip the more mods will slip through their fingers."

My only concern is potential bullying of mods.  If Disney wants to release star wars games in app form, then fine.  It's been done to death and won't change anything.  However, if it goes after the modding community then SW won't really have any life left.  It's actually a real money loser for them, imo.

This is truly depressing, but unfortunately not too unexpected. Soon Disney will probably close Lucasfilms itself and absorb everything from it. The question I have, though, is what will happen to all the motion capture technology that LucasArts had?

Could this have any effect on fan mods for previous LucasArts games (e.g Thrawn's Revenge)?

The closing of Lucasarts has no impact on us, but the basic ownership of Star Wars by Disney could. I doubt they'd stop allowing mods for the game, but in the past businesses that are really protective of their franchise, or are planning on releasing a new project have shut down mod projects, and Disney could end up taking that route with Star Wars. Microsoft shut down a bunch of Halo mods when Halo Wars was in development, and recently every Battlestar mod was given a C&D order as well.
