Jason Schreier says a Jedi Fallen Order sequel was greenlit before the first game even shipped

Pretty sure he's in the game.That also reminds me of watching the Fallen Order "making of" documentary where they discuss certain characters and this fella was presented, who wasn't in the first game afaik. Is that maybe someone we're going to see in the sequel?
Pretty sure that's the guy who sends bounty hunters to capture you for the arena
Same being my GOTY, and not being a Star Wars fan. And I played all the "great" stuff this year. I think playing the game without reading reviews first enhanced my enjoyment of the game as well.
I want them to continue with Cal and co. They were a good cast of characters, but didn't receive the development and interactions they should have gotten. The game's story and events just kind of happened very quickly without a good sense of time passing and the structure of the game overall didn't really provide any kind of meaningful instances for the characters to interact with one another and breathe. Event's just transpired and developed very quickly. The whole Merrin thing with her joining was super abrupt and sudden.
It would be nice for the second game to expand on things. Open up the game a little bit, give the story and character more time to breath and develop. Let us play as both Cal and Merrin to see more of her and vary up the gamplay and abilities we can use. And build off their apparent relationship.

Good, but can we have a more powerful Jedi this time around and not some bottom tier Jedi? (I know he was an apprentice who had to relearn but still).
I'd also love to see Cal or whoever it is, play a bit with the dark side. Dark side has so many cool shit but it's rarely seen cause everyone wants the protagonist to be goody two shoes. Something like Starkiller but without the shit game.

Looking forward to it. Iterate on the first one, give it more polish, make the collectibles more interesting and it could be an all-time great.
Making Merrin playable seems like maybe asking for too much, but I want it.

It's sort of sad that this is being overlooked. Fallen Order, at least on PC, was such a stuttering/freezing/crashing mess.
I don't see why it would be too much. Plenty of games have multiple playable characters and there's a lot of ways they could do it. Best might be to just bake it into the story where certain areas/planets are for Merrin and others are for Cal.
Or they could continue to lift directly from a major franchise like they did for so many other elements and just copy Resident Evil and give two separate paths. One for Cal and one for Merrin that are technically different stories but still share a huge portion of the same locations and story beats.
Darn, you're absolutely right! I barely remember how he looked like... thanks for clearing that up.
To be fair, he was a wonderfully animated but blurry SW style hologram. I love how so much future tech just looks in-universe shitty in SW compared to other sci-fi.
They have to rush, they are on the clock. They have to get this game running on next gen platforms and create a new game that lives up to the hype all before their deal with Disney expires in 2023.
C'mon now. Titanfall 2 addressed many issues with the first game, what makes you think this game will be any different? Respawn is a great studio; they definitely know what they need to tweak for the next one.
I was going to finally start JFO tonight with the hype of the new film but I just got back and wont....:( The showing didnt happen because there was an error with the film apparently or something. There were no other showtimes (we had our tickets a month in advance,...,of course it would be sold out for all showtimes) ... Got refunds but mood is sour and no hype atm. Going to try tomorrow (and then when im cheered up, play JFO :P)
Sigh.
Whatever. They did a fine job with Fallen Order.
I'm happy the people at that studio are finally getting some big money.
Just wish gamers were smart enough to have rewarded them for their best games, and thereby encouraged them to keep making them.

I hope the next one is more polished and the level design is done better with more meaningful rewards for exploration rather than 90% of them being useless cosmetics that don't even show up in cutscenes.
Game had a lot of potential but fell short in my books. Still interested in a sequel though, could be one of the greats.

This is just my personal tastes here and I don't want to have to explain why but I thought the new film, story wise, was the worst Star Wars movie ever made. I played Fallen Order as soon as I got home to wash the bad taste out of my mouth and had this week's Mandalorian episode as a chaser.
Maybe Respawn shouldnt pick stupid ass release dates. They are responsible for their own failure.
EA, make sure to give Respawn breathing room and let them finish the damn game next time.
But ya, looking forward to it.

Yee, as they have stated multiple times, an internal marketing team within respawn chose the date for Titanfall 2
Woohoo! I really liked my PC playthrough of Jedi Fallen Order!
... Switching to the Xbox One X version though — at least with context of having completed the PC version already — is kinda rough. Input feels way more sluggish, like way more than the usual 60-to-30fps drop for me.
Hope the technical aspects of the sequel are far better out of the gate, and I also have a little bit of hope that the current release will get updated with some decent performance tuning.

I love Star Wars but after playing Titanfall 2 (PS Plus), now really want Titanfall 3 for next gen.
TF2 is amazing and it's one of the best FPS games of my life without a doubt. Campaign was so good and enjoyed it a lot, from outstanding gameplay to story and even the graphics were so beautiful for a 60fps game and made me think why we don't have more 60fps games like this.
Then I played 5,6 rounds of multiplayer and wow! I'm not a multiplayer guy and I think the whole time spent in multiplayer in this generation wasn't more than 2,3 hours. But TF2 MP is amazing and I'll play MP more in next days.

Maybe they should not have brought over half the crew from Mass Effect Andromeda.
The game was good, but not mindblowing. I lost interest in the game right when you get to the snowy planet ... It was a solid first showing, but I hope a sequel really makes things better.
Hopefully they've learned to use UE4 when the sequel rolls around. The stuttering unpolished mess they just shipped is a product of embarrassing quality.
