Thank you so much for checking out this video! I want to thank Brodey Jorgenson for his amazing work on the Endar Spire! If you want to help support Unreal Cinema check out our Patreon: www.patreon.com/unrealcinema
No, thank YOU. Really, I appreciate all the hard work on this amazing content
Me too
Thank you so much for this! This is literally my dream movie/series, I always thought it would be impossible. You may not know how this makes a positive impact on my life, I'm so looking forward to this, right now I'm really not able to be a patreon but at least I promise to watch all the videos many times and to tell everyone, and hopefully soon I'll be able to support monetarily as well, thank you!
amazing work!
What program are you using to make the planet? Is that substance?
"Now hurry up, we have to find Bastila! We have to make sure she makes it off the ship alive!" - Trask Ulgo
IM SAVING MY OWN SKIN
That bump to your head must have done more damage than I thought!
RIP trask....😭😣
For the Republic!
@@pennclick : Truly a dumb thing to say to a guy who has the ability to lock you in your cabin and leave you to die. (Your cabin is in lockdown and you don’t have the code.)
Giving someone advance warning that you intend to betray them is beyond stupid. Plus Trask is a much better fighter than you at this point in time!
Can we take a second to appreciate the fact that Trask Ulgo chose to spend his precious final moments teaching Darth Revan how to open doors?
Spoilers much?!
And telling Revan to put some clothes on lol.
Wait, you play as revan? What if you select a female character? I barely remember lol
@@squalltheonly Revan is technically whatever you want him/her to be. So if youre female, Revan is too for the story.
@@skylerlewis4773 I believe canonically revan is male, and the jedi in the second game is female. Hard to write expanded stories when the gender is nailed down lol
''We've been ambushed by a Sith battle fleet! The Endar Spire is under attack! Hurry up, we don't have much time!'' Every time I hear that phrase, I know that a great adventure is coming...
"The Endar Spire?"
KOTOR 2 is better

Is Trask gonna teach us how to unlock doors?

@Jerry, The Nitwit Villager Yeah it's a mini series like the other comments have mentioned. Go through his channel and he has other previews of the series, as well as a couple videos explaining what the project is ^^
Or is he gonna teach us how to use him to unlock the door?
This looks unbelievably good, keep up the fantastic work!
In the words of one Orson Krennic: "Oh, It's BEAUTIFUL"
excellent line
Been looking for this comment, I am glad to know there ar other fans that think alike
An behalf of all Star Wars fans I just want to thank you for all your hard work we really appreciate it
👏👏👏👏👏
More than I appreciate the franchise most recently. Fans need this kind of content and less DISNEY. A return to the Old Republic is a must have.
Trask: "Quick! We must protect Bastila at any cost!"
Player: "hey wait a sec. the last blast revived my memory. long live the Sith Empire."
Directed by George Lucas
Republic officer: "Quick! We must protect Bastila at any cost!"
Rebel Trooper: "Bastila is a weird way of referring to the Death Star Plans. Isn't it?"
Republic Officer: "HEY, GEORGE! ANOTHER IDIOT GOT THE WRONG SET!"
Just now realizing the resemblance to old republic uniforms and rebel uniforms
@@spacejesus6581 they do look similar except the republic officers are red and the rebels are blue
The plans you refer to will soon be back in our hands
It looks just like how my imaginative child brain interpreted the original.
I always imagined it as a smaller part of a larger space battle as a kid
@@delta2372 same haha
Imagine having Kotor and Kotor2 completely remastered like this... man what a dream that would be!
It's being produced by a woman who literally said she hated the series and plans to rework it's entirety in her own image
Even though Rise of Skywalker ended up the way it did, I'm glad someone at the trailer department made this perfect music.
Yes! This music from the trailer is my favorite thing to come out of the whole Rey trilogy fiasco.
John Williams put in 110% effort and quality through that whole train wreck. Props to him as well. He did a good job of creating new themes while calling back to the old ones.
Just so you know, the person who made the music, at least the final part mentioning the main theme, for the final trailer of The Rise of Skywalker (the music in this video) was Blake Robinson, he's pretty epic.
My only recommendation is that you don't show us the Star Forge so we can be blown away when we see it in the series the same way we were blown away when we saw it in the game.
this and "the big reveal" scene. We all know how it plays out, but damm, seeing it remastered in its full glory will be amazing!
Oh for real!! The Star Forge with Its entire Armada surrounding it when your first see it!
The blaster impact effects should be altered to appear as though in free fall. Right now the impact effects (sparks, debris) look like it is in a gravity well.
They are so close to the planet that there is a gravity well. Ships in Star Wars don't follow orbital mechanics, and it's really far from being hard sci-fi at all. The reasons why things float in space is because they fall constantly while always missing the things they orbit. So a ship that's getting disabled in Star Wars would plunge straight down to the planet since there is still attraction at these distances and the same applies to the blaster impact effects.
Gravity is completely ignored in all Star Wars so it doesn't matter. If you try to explain any technology from Star wars it will just ruin it for you. For me I just accept that there are different laws of physics in that universe and it explains away anything that makes no sense.
If it was the planet then they should be falling towards the planet. But if you watch, especially the first couple of hits (1:35) , they just fall down according to the cameras perspective. Then later ones the debris/sparks float away in straight paths like it/they should.
@@richbob9155 Gravity isn't ignored in Star Wars. Orbital Mechanics are ignored in Star Wars. But that only applies if we assume that ships are in Orbit in the first place when they might in fact just be giant, high-altitude hovercraft /VTOLs. And if they are in fact just hovering over the planets we see them over that would indeed explain why they always plummet down so quickly (and with minimal to no heating effects) when damaged or destroyed.
It's perfect, although the engines need to die a bit less instantly, and flicker away instead.
Tell him that next time he streams, he's much more likely to see it. Plus I believe the date theyre shooting for for the first episode is early September? That's a lot of time to change minor details like that
@@spacejesus6581 Does he stream on youtube cause I didn't see a twitch link. I would add that the sparks flying from the explosions seem to have gravity which looks weird in space.
@@jacobpruett9204 yes he streams on YT
@@jacobpruett9204 Well depends how big the gravity well of the planet is and how close to the planet the fight takes place. If they are above the orbit yes there should be no meaningful gravity affecting the sparks, under the orbit it becomes a bit iffy i suppose. Although there is another point: ships have artificial gravity, we can assume this because we "the player" walk normally even after the ship has taken damage, and even the fighters seem to have it since you never see pens floating in the cockpit or pink blood pooling majestically like in that trek movie :), sooooo ... how far around a ship that artificial gravity field extends ?
@@gusty9053 excellent points, if it’s the planet they should go toward the planet, but if the grav bubble extends beyond the hull then it makes sense, however I believe it was discussed that astromech droids had to have magnetics to cling to the hulls in space flight
Nice work!!!
yooo
Hammerhead Class cruisers are so underrated as a ship 😍
I think I'm more excited to see this than the Bad Batch
@Austin Giattino KOTOR 'rhymes' with the OT, only without ripping it off like the Disney trilogy (while simultaneously undermining it)
@@meetrasurik659 *mouthful of chili* it's like poetry, it rhymes
@@meetrasurik659 "of the" rhymes with "original trilogy" very well 😂🤣😅
@@meetrasurik659 Well said mam.
@@mnomadvfx they’re talking about the story……. Revan essentially started good went bad, got his memories wiped, went good then blasted off to the unknown regions to take on the evil sith empire (the real one, not the one he created). Got captured wakes up how many years later and takes on the evil sith emperor before giving his life in an effort to kill Emperor Vitiate (who’s end goal was the destruction of the universe?). Some of this I’m Iffy on given that the wake up BLANK years later took place in SWTOR dlc. Then we look at a millennia later, with the real sith in hiding yet again, a powerful Jedi knight turning to the dark side, being an evil sith for awhile before with their dying breath killing the sith master. Meanwhile over at Disney, with their sequel trilogy, the force awakens was a call back to the OG trilogy nothing more, then you have the last Jedi fiasco, which involved stupid decisions, not making any sense whatsoever, and a throne room fight scene with blatantly disappearing weapons that should’ve killed the main characters. The there’s the rise of reywalker which was really fricken dumb despite pulling some force powers from legends into canon it still was filled with dumb moments like palpating announcing to the galaxy that he had an army of Death Stars at the very beginning of the movie. Palpating was cunning not stupid, all throughout prequel, original, and legends, then we have dumb Disney palpatine. Kotor brought in original characters that had a similar setup to the prequel and original trilogy characters, but original nonetheless, everything from Bastila to Malik to Meetra surik (canon kotor 2 character) to the mess that was SWTOR was at least original and not a rip off, and it didn’t insult the franchise is what they’re pointing out. Also he was quoting George Lucas. Who said ‘it’s like poetry it rhymes’ in reference to the prequel and original trilogy.
Loong have I waited.... and it's finally here.
I felt more emotion in those 20 seconds of the completed shot than I did for "The Last Jedi" and "The Rise of Skywalker" combined. Thank you for making this, I literally have tears of joy in my eyes.
Hats off to Brody, that Endar Spire is 🔥
Sometimes I'm just sitting here wondering how anyone could dislike this. You guys create a masterpiece here.
I got to tell you man, you released this at a perfect time for me. I've had a really rough month lately after seeing a story I cherished deeply for almost a decade end in the most catastrophic way possible. It had made me lose a lot of hope that anything good could still be made these days and had upset me a great deal. So to see a story I worshipped throughout my teens be recreated with such respect and an almost heroic love for the source material really made me feel a lot better.
Please don't lose passion for this project or the work you're doing. You have no idea how positive an effect seeing something like this can have on someone. Stories matter, far more than people often give them credit for, and seeing this really restored a lot of hope in me and gave me back my inspiration.
Thankyou.
Rough guess, but Attack on Titan?
@@teozhisheng833 Yams ruined an 11 year story with a 4 page epilogue...
@@Davey1337B Yep, was there when it happened.
@@teozhisheng833 Pretty much everyone who was there seems to share this opinion. My only hope now is that they either give the anime its own original ending or at least don't adapt the epilogue. The original ending wasn't perfect. It was rushed and a bit disappointing but it danced crcles around this new one. This new one just completely ruins the entire story. God knows what he was thinking adding that epilogue. Took a 10/10 story down to a 7/10 then smashed it down to a 3/10.
I've got bad news. The general rule is remakes and continuations SUCK HARD. Selling out is par for the course. Rare exceptions; Rogue One, LotR, etc.
Omg I can't wait till it's done 😍😍
Absolutely gorgeous! Finally, the graphics will do the story justice.
Just wow, this is easily my favorite Star Wars content coming out right now
As Vader would say “The Force is strong in this one.” 🤩
Bravo! Just….(tear in eye), Bravo 👏! There is nothing like nostalgia. And this is so mercilessly underrated - so glad it popped into My Recommended
Looks good. But the explosions are too fast. Slowing those down will make the ship look larger.
See, this is what I'd hope to see in a KotOR Remaster's cinematics.
Wow. All I can say is wow. I am absolutely blown away by how amazing this looks. This is what a work of love looks like. As always, we’re proud to support you in any way we can.
I’m so ready
"Yo dude look it's a jedi, must be accompanying bastila!"
*fuckin dies*
"Well SHIT then."
- every kotor player with every playthrough
Aside from the particle effects and their gravity settings (and maybe the shape of the laser shots), everything else spot on. Bravo
Man after all the disappointment after the sequels you Dave and Jon are finally getting me back into it. Love your work man, just hope it doesn’t have any of that force dyad stuff, I lost braincells when they tried to change the rule of two for episode 9
Force dyad? You mean the 3 gods of Mortis?
@@spacejesus6581 nah the Morris gods are cool af. Disney added a ‘force dyad’ trying to explain why Palpatine came back for episode 9 and what he wanted with it, they try saying the rule of two is bs and the Sith really are looking for a force dyad or something
@@DefecTec I've never even heard of that, guess it was so ridiculous that I forgot it existed
In the EU the reason Palpy comes back is simple, because he became so powerful and in tune with the force, right before he died he transported his spirit from his current body to a clone he had in a random facility, he basically was on the cusp of immortality the same way Qui-Gon Yoda and Obi Wan were with Force Ghosting, the difference was they could manifest anywhere they wanted (except Qui-Gon, he couldn't physically manifest) and Palpy can only manifest where a willing host exists
@@DefecTec I might be miss-remembering the movie, but I don’t think the force dyad and the rule of two are connected, considering that the canon explanation for the rule of two is still what Darth Bane says in the clone wars.
In the show, Darth Bane does say something along the lines of the rule was created because of how the Sith were constantly fighting each other, so the rule ensured that the Sith actually survived.
Please know I am not trying to be rude or act like I know or understand everything, I am just throwing out what I do know.
God, my heart just hurts. Bless you, creator… just God bless you
"It's beautiful." - Director Krennic
Ever since I played kotor when it came out when I was 7-8, the hammerhead cruiser has been my favorite star wars ship
This is a dream come true.
They need to remake The Old Republic in Unreal Engine 5
Wow the crescendo music and the beauty of the scene actually made me let go of a tear and gave me huuuge chills
I just cried! It's incredibly well done. Thank you !
im crying and shaking. my childhood, remade. i love you unreal cinema
I've got to say, and not commenting on whether Episode 9 is good or not, that the music played (being from the Episode 9 trailer) is one of if not the best pieces for a Star Wars trailer I've heard.
It's always nice to see hard work play out
The Endar Spire looks 🔥 and Taris is absolutely beautiful. I cannot wait to see the final product!! The Force is truly with you.
constructive criticism: the scale of the "Taris Distant City" seems very off to me. if looking down on the planet itself it seems like either the planet is tiny, or the buildings are MASSIVE because of that distant curvature
Thank you for your hard work! I’m the biggest self proclaimed kotor fan out there. I have been waiting for years to see something on this scale done! Until all of Star Wars fan are one!
Right, off to go replay kotor again!
KOTOR is only going to fuel my desire for more old republic stories...They better not let us down man. Then people like THIS putting these videos out that make me want it more...MOAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Replaying through KOTOR 2 right now. Thank you, kind editor stranger.
Astounding! Absolutely astounding!
1 minor quip though: That last explosion shouldn't have a heat bloom effect on it. It gives more impact but heat bloom requires an atmosphere.
And perhaps blue for the front windows as opposed to yellow? Idk, the yellow at that angle makes the ships seem sinister to me. But that one's based in opinion.
Physics should go out the window when it comes to cinematic appeal, is a heat bloom that big of a deal when it makes it more epic? If we made it more realistic the entire battle would be on mute, that's better for horror movies than actual combat
@@spacejesus6581 Does the heat bloom make it more epic or does the heat bloom distract from the scene? That's all that matters in this case and ultimately the decision is not up to me, but I would appreciate if you didn't twist what I said and put words into my mouth that were never there.
@@Centurian128 1: You were implying that it was bad specifically because of physics, I didn't twist shit
2: the heat bloom doesn't distract from the scene at all and it does make it more epic, you are asking to take it out because it's not physically possible when talking about a cinematic universe where there are space wizards with laser swords
3: don't be a rude asshole to me because you are illiterate and misunderstood what I said
@@spacejesus6581 1: I did nothing of the kind.
2a: That's your opinion.
2b: That's besides the point.
3: You're the one being rude. I just called you out for putting words in my mouth.
@@Centurian128 so what you're saying is you either have dementia or more than one person runs your account, because that is literally exactly what you said
Just go away
Myself and my Star Wars community will follow you all the way through this! This is the kind of thing many of us have been wanting. I've been watching since the beginning, and will continue to support, like, and share as it all progresses! The amount of work and effort you and your contributors have put into this is incredible, keep up the amazing work! Looking forward to seeing more content! 🙂
Never before had I felt the need to stand and applaud, until now
This is going to be epic.
So much respect coming your way right now! This is awe inspiring.
When the music swelled a wave of emotions hit me and I shed a few tears, fantastic work!
Every video on this project makes a single nerd tear drop every time
When this is far better and superior than anything related to star wars that big companies have developed.
Dude you deserve a medal
Every time you upload a video, you shoot me back to my childhood.
A long time ago in a galaxy far far away...
Looks cool, but I will say that the explosions in orbit are exhibiting far too much gravity. Even if they were in atmosphere. Still, very good stuff.
Hammerhead.Most amazing ship design!I can recognize it everywhere!it's even in the ship graveyard in bad batch!
splendid stuff....
reminds me of when I fought in the
Clone Wars .
May the Force
be With You
The fact that this is possible is insane.... Well done!
OH... MY... GOD!!! I need this like... RIGHT NOW!! This is AWESOME!!!
Watching these updates gives me chills every video. Looks amazing 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Literally watched this with my mouth agape. Amazing!
unreal engine 5 just opened up a whole new world for developers and VFX artists everywhere.
The Endar Spire is going down! Quick, into the escape pods! May the Force be with us all...
The Hammerhead cruiser is my favorite star wars ship, you did a great job!
Incredible! Thank you for doing this project! Doing another KOTOR playthrough right now.
I have always had a special place in my heart for the hammerhead class cruiser. Your team has most certainly done it justice.
This project looks more and more impressive every update. Can't wait to see it all pieced together.
Now that is just lovely. The Endar Spire has never looked so good.
Apart from particles which seem to be hitting a small surface, the models the scene and the animation sends shivers down my spine! Great work!
This is almost movie quality, damn. Keep it up, you've obviously got mad skills.
This does bring a smile to my face.
I have watched through most of your videos, and I have to say they are incredible. This amazing work, keep it up, and above all give us Star Wars like it is meant to be visualized.
A work of art, down to the tiniest details.
Finally!!! May the credits with you!!!
This is incredible! I can't help but get giddy watching this!
Wow! I'm really excited! Excellent music, by the way.
this brings tears to my eyes. This looks so amazing!
Such great work! My childhood brought by to life in the best way possible!
That's a beautiful Endar Spire. It looks bigger than the original, and I really love the small details in the back of the ship. And those sith fighters too. I'll be damned if this doesn't end up looking as incredible as the previews you're showing.
Wow! That's pretty okay in my book. Good job!
Don't play with my heart like this. Beautiful job!
I started tearing up at the beauty of what it could be
This is always how the game appeared to me as a kid. *tears up and remembers all the great moments discovering what this masterpiece had to offer for my first time playing it and what we all continue to love about such a great and wondrous franchise that despite some setbacks has stood the test of time. may the force be with you!
you can tell this is a work of love
Honestly, that recreation looks fantastic, it looks like it could be the opening sequence of a Star Wars film, it just looks like Star Wars and I love that so much. Keep up the good work
enough to make a grown man cry😭
keep up the fucking amazing work man. we are rooting for you
its beautiful
Edit: the music made this so much better, gon' make me cry bro
that scoring and music timing makes john williams proud
This was the music in the Rise of Skywalker official trailer. Crap movie of a crap trilogy, but a wonderful score for the trailer
So nostalgic. So beautiful 😭
What's really amazing is that the original cinematic was created with stone tools.
So damn good it brought a tear to my eye! Awesome and thank you for your hard work!
Absolutley and positively *gorgeous*!!!
Appreciation: Thank you, The Maker!
