In the early part of the game you see the assembly-line style of the Clone troopers, who are made to be killing soldiers for the Galactic Republic, and they are expendable to the commanders that they follow into battle. The player is Delta-38, which is the leader of the squad, and it follows him from his early education and training on Kamino to his deployment on Geonosis, which is the planet where the Clone Wars all began. The story is of the Delta Squad, which is an elite group of Clone troopers that are completing some very dangerous missions during the Clone Wars.
The game told an original story and it did so with any Jedi. Out of the three games, we think that Republic Commando was the best first-person shooter. However, Republic Commando was overshadowed and took up the middle position. The Revenge of the Sith did just as well as the film that it was based on. Pandemic Studios’ Battlefront was also released during this time and it received tons of praise, but Knights of the Old Republic did not meet the fans expectations. There were two games that survived the cuts that were developed internally, the official Revenge of the Sith and Republic Commando, and Knights of the Old Republic II, which was already far into its development and was eventually released. Thankfully, The Knights of the Old Republic series lived on with Star Wars: The Old Republic. One example is when they started cutting out third-party developers like Obsidian, Raven Software, BioWare, and Factor 5, ended up cutting of the publishers best franchises like the Jedi Knight series. This wasn’t an unreasonable goal to make, because it is Star Wars we are talking about, but a line of questionable decisions drug LucasArts further away from their goal. The company had plenty of critical success in 2003 because of games like Jedi Knight II and Knights of the Old Republic, they then wanted to create a blockbuster game that would compete with the Halo series. The corporates restricting made the company to give large cuts in their staffing and budgets at LucasArts. When The Force Unleased was put out in 2004 it became the beginning of the end for the company. Republic Commando was put on shelves for fans to enjoy at an interesting time during LucasArts history. When Republic Commando was released it dished out one of the darkest storylines that has been told in Star Wars. And this month , Star Wars Battlefront was released, which is the franchise’s first FPS since 2005. First off, there is now Halo 5 Guardians and its brand new feature, squad commands, which owes quite a bit to Republic Commando’s gameplay. There are two things that have occurred in the last couple of months to give us a reminder that Star Wars Republic Commando was one of the most influential Star Wars shooter games ever. If you remember Star Wars Republic Commando, you know that it’s not only one of the most amazing Star Wars FPS games but it was also the darkest.
