For years, there has been a demand for a sequel, but nothing has ever materialized. Now there may be a glimmer of hope for a second game in the future.
On this week's episode of The 1099 Podcast, the creative director of Dragon Age, Mike Laidlaw, joins host Josiah Renaudin to discuss how the team at BioWare creates such massive open worlds. Mike explains the different roles he's played at BioWare, the struggles of even starting a five-year AAA project, what a linear Dragon Age (similar to Uncharted) would look like, how he deals with Dragon Age reviews, and the possibility of a Jade Empire 2.
Microsoft needs to lock up at the very least timed exclusivity for Jade Empire 2 if its something Bioware is interested in.
Jade empire 2 would be awesome news. I don't have much faith in it happening though.
I would love a new KOTOR and a new Jade Empire, but the last two Bioware games have left me unimpressed due to how great the games were that came before. Bioware is off my must buy list, currently on the wait for a discount list.
BioWare's forgotten RPG, Jade Empire, was a blast. And for this writer, it was also memorable. So why didn't we get Jade Empire 2?
PixlBit | "In spring 2005, the original Xbox got its swan song in the wake of the 360’s announcement with Jade Empire. Developed at BioWare, who had recently achieved success with Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic, Jade Empire was published by Microsoft exclusively for the console before coming to the PC in early 2007. Despite rumblings from both BioWare and even EA concerning how they would love to make a sequel, this series ended after just one installment."
I don't know what I want. I love JE and love that feudal Japan setting.
Just give me more of what made it great.
A new JE2 , plus a remastered JE so to rekindle the story for those that played the original and to attract new players. Last thing hopefully their Xbox one , PC exclusive.
I want the character I choose to impact the game more than who flirts with me. Make the story actually be different for each to more of a degree.
Heck yeah game was great. Just needed to be bigger. I'd like another Star Wars RPG too.
Jade Empire is such a beautiful game, and OMG the music.
