Hey guys, this is Spider. So now you can ask me questions about any of my four games The Sith Temple Game, The War on Middle-Earth, Servants of Destruction, or A Common Enemy. You can also ask me about my two series Star Wars: Resolute and The Desperate Quest. And there's also my future games The Blade of Darth Revan and The Las... Er I mean, Untitled Sixth Game. Out of everyone here, I'm pretty sure my story is the most complex, and I think it's gone through the most revisions. And it's also the longest. So please, ask away! I have plenty of info I'd like to share as long as someone is willing to ask.

How did you come up with the idea for having characters from different universes come together in one game Well, I never actually planned to do that. It just sorta worked out that way. I put Gandalf and Voldemort in that first game just to make RP. And Darth Gandalf became such a popular character that I decided to give him his own game. But then I had to come up with a back story of how Gandalf came to the SW galaxy, and it ended up turning into this long and complicated idea of inter-universe travel that perfectly set up more installments. |

Was Revan originally planed to be the main character of the series? And it seems Spider games are the ones I had the most success in I won all 3 I played  TWOM-E was also my first game. I really enjoy this series good story, gameplay and memory's of the awesome gameplay in TWOM-E. |

Are you glad you involved time travel or do you wish you hadn't?

Was it difficult to make a story with all these different characters and universes coming together?
And also, will it get more complex, because i will be honest i don't always get what's going on.

He was meant to have his arc in the first few games and then die. Another character in the little group was actually meant to be the main character of the whole thing. But they'll remain important. |

But time travel is really the only way to explain the universes coming together and I also like that it provides a logical reason for breaking off of canon instead of just randomly doing so. |

Yes, it is definitely difficult. Because I can't just leave characters out, I have to explain how every main character from Star Wars and LOTR fits into this and if they aren't there, why. It has to be a whole, complex universe. The games won't be getting any more complex. Eventually, everything will stay in one timeline and there will be no more time-travel. Games 1-3 were meant to be complex because they are one big intro to the story of Revan and his rebellion. Games 4-6 are meant to be more like the original trilogy as a small group of characters where we aren't planet hopping all the time, and you really get to know the characters. So no, it will actually get easier to understand. |

Another question, could you maybe hint at what's to come and what we can expect to see? |

So will grievous remain out of everything for now until he gets more parts? And will any major characters have a chance of dying in TDQ? Grievous will make his return either very late in the series or in Game 5. The character needs time to recover from what Loki did to him. And this isn't just because of parts. It's also to give Revan and Wicket a lot more motivation. They want to avenge what happened to their friend. And yes, there will be major death. The only characters that are safe are those who people are playing as in TBODR. Any other character can die at any point in the series. |

Haldir and Wicket will come closer to discovering the secret in Episode 6. And the whole picture is uncovered in Episode 7. And the relics are also what kept Sauron alive. |

So is your series only 2 more games left? And do you have any plans for after this game series? And I hope I can bring Grievous to the end at least one SW characters needs to survive since you know everyone else is dead  |

Another question, could you maybe hint at what's to come and what we can expect to see? Well there still is A LOT to come. There'll be a lot of new, interesting characters. (Get those characters in, guys) And since all these characters are from different universes, their big challenge is trying to figure out how to work together against Sauron and Shaw. You'll see more of how they deal with that in the show. And I really want to make these last two installments as dramatic and emotional as possible. They'll learn to love and care for each other, and then they'll watch each other be butchered by evil forces. It gets intense. |

I've been sorta putting all my energy towards it. I had this one idea about a game about Fives training criminals against the Empire, but I sorta made that into a series instead. |

I had considered having a second season of that starring Captain Jesse and Lieutenant Ventress. But I just didn't like it. Elements of it though, want into TDQ. |

Sorry, I'm just answering the last two questions because I just got back. It will, and I'm pretty sure I have a scene planned out in The Reckoning of Omega that shows it. It will show the characters that they need to stop Sidious ASAP if they don't want to die. I'm leaving soon so I won't be able to answer any more questions, but if you or anyone else has one more then I'll answer it.  You can always answer later  And Awesomesauce again! I'm sure some will die because of the Omega Saber alone. Will the group (the playable characters) have more bonding and problems voting eachother off instead of just shoving them forward and shooting them this time? I'll probably do that. I kind of did that more in The Tale of Omega so I'd like to bring that aspect of my games back to TROO. Thanks Mav. So, Potato, where did you get the name Omega? I mean is there a meaning behind the name for why you chose it? (I don't know what it means so this might be a dumb question ) To be honest, there's no good story behind it. It just sounds cool. Ok, moving on to the Spider Panel. Spider, do you enjoy flipping some character's personalities around (like Gandalf)? |

Same with Obi-Wan and Anakin. And Grievous being a good guy is still kinda weird. Sidious, who seemed to be friendlier here, was actually his same manipulative self. In fact, he was plotting to kill Revan at the end of "ACE" |

TWOM-E was also my first game. I really enjoy this series good story, gameplay and memory's of the awesome gameplay in TWOM-E.
