noob_muncher Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 So I know with the Battlefront 2 controversy that Star Wars gambling might be a bit contentious but it seems rather strange that a game based off the KOTOR series still does not feature the mini-game staple of Pazaak. There's a lot of potential for deck building and credit earning to be had. I understand staying away from gambling real-world currency through Cartel Coins but I see no reason not to try earning some credits. Hell, BioWare could even implement buying rare cards through the Cartel Market. There seems to be a lot of potential here for Nar Shadaa casinos as well as Tatooine and Rishi. What are your thoughts?

FlameYOL Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 This has been a request for years. I personally wouldn't mind if they added a few mini-games, but it seems they never bothered to unfortunately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AshurDarksoul Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 I'm curious why various mini games like this have never been included. Would spice things up imo... Ashur Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mubrak Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 (edited) For what seems to be just a mix of Black Jack and a collectible cards game, Pazaak is quite complex with many ways of playing strategically. A seasoned player with a big deck is at a big advantage. For player vs. machine matches it would require quite a sophisticted AI or it would become a license to print credits. PvP Pazaak, either directly or in form of a tournament of players vs machine matches, even when no credits are involved, would quickly become an exaggerated version of real PVP, where players constantly demand nerfs for this card or another. I could see it as a variation of the gambling event, though. You buy chips and the credits are lost, you then use the chips to gamble for a token that lets you buy stuff in the casino's shop.

Signed, I love Pazaak so much I would play an online game dedicated to it, it would be awesome to actually gamble on Pazaak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Falensawino Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 (edited) it seems rather strange that a game based off the KOTOR series still does not feature the mini-game staple of Pazaak. Cuts had to be made. The game had to be released in 2011 after eight years of development. Pazaak would have sent them 3x over budget.
