STAR WARS 1313: Inside the Cancelled LucasArts Game
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 20 мар 2024
- In 2012, LucasArts announced Star Wars 1313. 5 months later, LucasFilm would be sold to Disney, LucasArts would close and the project would be cancelled. What happened to the project? Did it really star Boba Fett? And how did it connect to the forgotten Star Wars TV Show Underworld?

Holy shit why does this only have 5k views its insanely good
you're tellin' me! sharing's always a big help!
First the Halo MMO, now 1313. You're slowly adapting each game mentioned in Blood, Sweat, Pixels lol. In all seriousness idk if you have read it but its sequel, Press Reset, is really good. One game i think would work well for one of your videos is The Bureau XCOM Declassified, its development is so chaotic yet tragic.
Definitely was hesitant to do this one because I didn't want to feel like I was repeating Schreier's work, but I felt it'd been long enough that I could give 1313 some extra context. I've got Press Reset but I haven't read it yet (maybe I'll pick it up when I'm running short on ideas 😉). XCOM Declassified is also on my list, actually! I'm not sure if it'll happen this year but it's one I've been wanting to cover
This is so well done. I've been such a Big George defender my whole life. The older I get the more... nuanced that defense gets lol. (also that outfit at 9:27 is peak E3)
I watch a lot of gaming journalism and documentary channels, but your videos always have so much information I never see anywhere else. Great work! 👍
I really appreciate that!
16:37 And I still believe….where it still CAN be headed
Edit: Seriously awesome jobs putting this together. Nice to see our childhood dreams still being remembered and protected. Their stories told
Thank you so much! That's always the goal. It definitely feels like 1313 is on the minds of those who are developing future Star Wars games. Really think whatever Robilliard and Hennig cook up will be very close to 1313
I will never not be sad that we didn't get this game, or the Underworld TV show. Incredible video mate, every one a banger ❤
While 1313 hurts, Underworld still keeps me up at night. Still would've loved to see weird Lucas-era Star Wars on TV
i would like actually a story within the star wars universe that does evolve around protagonists completely detached from ur jedi rebel alpha team
this channel deserves a million subs, great video as always
This channel covering about canceled games or games with a troubled/long development is really interested to me. Keep up the great work! I'd love to see you cover Beyond Good and Evil 2 in the near future, I feel like that would be an interesting video to watch!
I’ve been kicking around a Beyond Good and Evil 2 video for longer than Luck Stat’s been around, actually. Always worried the second I make a video about it, they’ll release it
Your videos are always well researched and well made. Keep up the great work.
Would love to see a similar video about the canceled Prey 2
You're not the first to say this, actually. It's on the (admittedly pretty long) list!
Impressive as always, Luck Stat. Quality content to aspire towards.
There has to be an irony, while watching this video about the legacy of failed Star Wars development cycles, I got an ad for one of those Star Wars iPhone games.
Oof. That’s really depressing actually
That was a cool vid mate. I'm not the biggest SW enjoyer but a dark cyberpunky SW would have pulled me in. But of course, it's too edgy for the slop merchant's that want to reach the widest audience's, oh well!
In another timeline this would've been a great Game Asylum review for sure. Lots of jokes about Jar Jar Binks and at least one instance of you calling David Cage a moof-milker guaranteed
@@LuckStat hey that david cage star wars game is still set to come out(oh god)
Great work as always Evan.
Really appreciate this, Cheese
Selling Lucasfilm to Disney was a mistake.
And I think Lucas knows it.
Friendly reminder that Iron Man had the power to un-cancel 1313 with just a snap of his fingers, but he instead used the Infinity Stones to turn Purple Josh Brolin into protein powder. It's all Tony's fault.
You know what? I'm gonna say it then, I'm glad Iron Man's dead
@@LuckStat So am I.
I hadn't ever heard this was supposed to be gears like, would've been cool to see how it turned out/aged
Also, fuckin George Lucas man
I feel like he comes across extra chaotic in this one
Lucas has always been an idiot and bad filmmaker. Most good ideas werent his or he ripped them off. The prequels were a dull mess. Empire- objectively the best movie- he didn’t even direct. He doesn’t even understand the world “he created”. Because he didn’t. And went onto scupper and destroy many great ideas that could’ve put many great Star Wars experiences out there. Personally I’m sick of the whole franchise and Disney has nailed the coffin. But I was always curious about 1313 and this was a well made vid. Cheers dude
I appreciate the kind words, for sure. I think Lucas is always a very polarizing figure, and my relationship with his work has always been kind of complicated. Over the years, I think I've come to accept that at bare minimum he was very good at giving experts in their respective field the tools they needed to innovate. Ben Burtt, John Knoll, that first ILM crew, Pixar, the EditDroid team and so on got their starts under Lucas and would go on to change how movies were made and experienced. Doesn't mean he always makes good movies by any means, though, and it definitely doesn't mean his decisions were always great, especially towards the end there.
LucasArts' fate really is a tragedy.
A bit of an idealistic take; but one can only imagine what the current gaming landscape would be if Lucas' foothold in the industry was still here to push forward technology and concepts like they did in the 90s and early 2000's, and like how ILM still does for its own medium to this day.
Definitely, their work with Euphoria (and its eventual use in GTA IV) is a great testaent to that. But I also just miss their bigger multimedia projects like Shadows of the Empire. Feels like nobody is doing it like that anymore
How odd for this to appear just as I hearing about the story in the blood and pixels audio book. Crazy! Game legit looks great like.. damn genuinely a loss
any canceled star wars show/game gives me depression
then don't click on this video (or do I'm not your therapist!)

@@LuckStat aw man 😭 i know this ones gonna hit, watchint it right now
I really wish that when projects like this get cancelled, the assets would get released to the public. One of my personal favorite projects that was cancelled was Prey 2. I would have loved to at least see or get to play some sort of build, even if it was rough. So much hard work done by these developers just disappears because of the suits.
fav channel covering one of my fav games
damn fav comment
Perfect analysis of the game i hope we can see it in the future we deserve a game where were not a stupid character with a silly pet i would have definitely been alot happier if star wars outlaws had character customisation not just being a boring human lol
no wonder star wars cant seem to move past memberberries, lucas himself was doing it
8:22 - "They're friends!"
Singlehandedly the wildest George Lucas story
Big George. Lol
I started saying this ironically and haven’t been able to quit
I love george but holy shit he really should have just let the gamers make the games. I do like the idea of a deep legacy game happening after the Krayt Empire stories of Darth Talon using an army of cloned dead sith or something
Yeah. It wouldn't surprise me if he, as an outsider, thought game development was still like in the mid 90's by the time he took interest in LucasArts again. Otherwise, I don't see how he could have thought his ever-changing demands feasible.
A shame, really. I would have loved to see what LucasArts could have made with George's imput properly given.
This game and the cancelled Darth Maul would've been so cool if Lucas didn't keep interfering.
Everything....just gone...
Damn Disney!!!🤬🤬🤬
11:50 game name?
Republic Commando! Highly recommended, think Rainbow Six meets Star Wars
Gears of starwars
It completely baffles me that George, didn’t care at all giving hope to original main characters and pretty fucking scummy of him to force the development rearrange everything to focus on boba. Don’t get me wrong if we got it today with boba fett name on it, I wouldn’t complain, it is what it is. But I would still prefer Wilson bethal character.
