Does the DLC have its own weird separate licensing agreement?

This is a classic case of it being easier to say “no” than for their legal department to do the work to make it work.

Super duper lame.
At this point, why not just hand the project over to Obsidian, and let the OG devs do it?

Did anyone think this would actually happen? Companies cannot recognize fan work. There have been multiple SFF authors sued because they wrote a book with a plot similar to what a fan sent them in a letter.
The best fans can ever hope for is that companies ignore them and let them continue playing in a sandbox they don’t own.

>In some of the filings, names or whole passages are redacted; many documents were sealed. In others, fascinating facts from inside the game industry are discussed freely. KOTOR II on Steam sold at 75% of the rate of KOTOR I, according to Aspyr’s records, for example. And a mystery project codenamed Juliet is described as **a full, modern remake of KOTOR II, that is/was in development alongside the previously reported remake of KOTOR I**, at least as recently as March.

Maybe don’t announce something until you actually have the rights to use it.

Annoying thing ever like just put in the effort, right

I’m extra mad that I never even got the “we’re sorry we lied so we’ll give you KOTOR one to make up for it” promise.

Would be interesting if the in limbo KOTOR remake ends up being a package of 1 and 2 together
