It’s war and there’s stars
The description under the video below says it is being released “in celebration of 10 years” ofStar Wars: The Old Republic. Ten years! I’d have sworn it was 9, tops. The video itself is a 4K remaster of The Old Republic’s original reveal trailer. If you like the ol' space biff, this is some really high resolution space biff.

Looking at it today, it feels simultaneously “all Star Wars tropes ever” and also extremely 2009 Star Wars. The fight is taking place in a pointlessly vast hall filled with pillars. The flippy, acrobatic lightsaber fights don’t really exist in the more recent sequel trilogy. The slow-motion lightsaber dodge doesn’t feel like any kind of Star Wars at all, but it’s definitely dated. Main Jedi boy has a very prequels trilogy haircut.
BioWare say they’re going to release all their “classic” cinematic trailers in 4K, and there’s another already available, featuring the Duel Of The Fates theme and, honestly, characters that feel like they might be called Darth Moll, Hams Olo, and his ship, the Willenium Falcon.
