I know, so was mine, I'm sorry if I wasn't clear.

Would anyone be interesting in talking about what kind of pre ordered bonus they might have for this game?

Sure. Heard any rumors?

If we're wildly speculating, Revan's iconic mask as equipable gear. AFAIK it was never available in the original game, but the robe was like five rooms from the end if you were dark side and had been hoarding computer spikes all game.

No I haven't sorry, just thinking. Should it be a in game item or something physical.

I was thinking in-game but now I kinda want it physical too.

I would too but one problem with that is that not everyone has the same size head, maybe his lightsaber could work but a helmet is cool.

I sincerely hope there's no cosmetics or similar stuff going to give away "the big reveal". I mean, we're all aware of what is going to happen and technically I do not mind it appearing "too early" on repeat-plays and I doubt most new players will be completely unaware of who the hero is, but please... Pay lip-service to my suspension of disbelief and before you point out my choice in not equiping the damn thing: We all know this is going to be a superb item that you absolutely need to equip for min-maxing reasons.

Small side-issue: If you allow abhuman species, that kinda will give the twist away, won't it? I mean, imagine an Ithorian Revan... How would this be a surprise to anyone and how would anyone inside the game manage to not notice the obvious? But then again, this would be pure cosmetics and choice for the player, unlike an equipable item that is almost primed to have unavoidably-good stats.

As for gameplay, you know what would really hype me? If they completely ditch the old combat and went straight for a Fallen Order or... dare I say it, Force Unleashed type of gameplay? Especially the later is still one of, if not the best display of a combatant powerful in the force in my opinion. I mean, remember the later Jedi Knight games? Picking force grip as a power and throwing the enemies off Bepsin? Or monorail trains high up in the sky of Coruscant? Now imagine it would actually look cool, too...

Could either of those styles work with multiple characters since both force unleashed and Family orders basically have you only control one character most of the time.

Honestly even if they keep the under-the-hood-it's-turn-based approach just using a modern ruleset would make it so much smoother to play. The original was clunky even for a D20 system game.
