Tysplo Posted June 13, 2004 Posted June 13, 2004 The official site just posted new screenshots of two of the new planets that'll be appering in the game. http://www.lucasarts.com/games/swkotor_sithlords/
BLG Posted June 15, 2004 Posted June 15, 2004 One of the planets look alot like Naar Shada. I hope u can put the hood over your head. That wood be cool.
khawk Posted July 6, 2004 Posted July 6, 2004 So far we know that you will go to: Dantooine, Telos and Dxun. And I have also read somewehere there would be 7 planets to visit. Anyone who would know which other planets you will visit? Which ones do you want to visit?
Com Raven Posted July 8, 2004 Posted July 8, 2004 Yes there will be 7. Also, I think I heard somewhere that (as usual) Tatooine will be visited...
Prime Posted July 8, 2004 Posted July 8, 2004 I guess it wouldn't be a Star Wars game without Tatooine...
Tysplo Posted July 8, 2004 Author Posted July 8, 2004 LOL Yeah, Tatooine's been used in way too many Star Wars games. (And movies/books) It's already been confirmed here though, that it wont be returning in this game.
RedHawke Posted July 9, 2004 Posted July 9, 2004 ^^^^^ Not having Tatooine is just fine with me, too much of the twin suns, Tuskens, Jawa's, and sand, "I hate sand, it's coarse, and it gets everywhere".
Mex Posted July 9, 2004 Posted July 9, 2004 Any news of a snow planet or something? There was a lack of that in KotOR.
FiEND_138 Posted July 11, 2004 Posted July 11, 2004 Originally posted by khawk Which ones do you want to visit? Coruscant.... a real representation of it, not a remaped JO Nar Shada, if you played JA you know what I'm getting at. A snow planet would be pretty neat too...
0rlo Posted July 11, 2004 Posted July 11, 2004 very nice. a snow planet would be a good visit. no tatooine? hmm...guess that isn't all bad.
RedHawke Posted July 11, 2004 Posted July 11, 2004 Originally posted by Prime I guess it wouldn't be a Star Wars game without Tatooine... Actually Tattoine wasn't in the Empire Strikes Back either and it was the second Star Wars movie, so possibly KOTOR 2 is just following that pattern. It seems to me KOTOR 2 is shaping up to be darker like ESB was darker, possibly leading to a RTOJ like KOTOR 3. And that would rule!
Mav Posted July 15, 2004 Posted July 15, 2004 The first time I saw those full cloak jedi robes I almost cried they are soooo sweet, but yea I was getting pretty sick of tatooine, and as long as they make Kotor games I'll buy them so the planets don't matter to me that much I guess, but I'd like to see Alderaan.
RedHawke Posted July 16, 2004 Posted July 16, 2004 ^^^^^ Yeah I'd like to see Alderaan as well! Because we all know what happens to poor Alderaan later on!
Burrie Posted July 16, 2004 Posted July 16, 2004 The one thing that I find interesting about Dxun is the fact that it is a planet that has been featured in the EU before, in the old Tales of the Jedi series. A very intriguing, sublte reference. The body of the ancient Sith Freedon Nadd was placed there when Master Arca, the Qel-Droma brothers and Tott Doneeta discovered his corpse on Onderon, the planet that the Dxun moon orbits. Which does make me wonder... Onderon has been featured in various EU tales before(Palpatine even dies for the last bloody time on that planet), and it would be nice if we'd visit that planet as well... or at the very least see it in orbit It's also in Freedon Nadd's tomb where the Sith Lord Exar Kun(who fought the Republic some 40-50 years before KotOR) found his first information about the Sith, and one might say that hise journey down the Dark Side started there. (IIRC, he commits his first Dark Side act there by killing the two Naddists who showed him the way to the tomb). (as a short side-note, this planet was IIRC also featured in an old story where Darth Bane, the one who created the 'master/apprentice' rule, is also on Dxun to ponder in which direction he should take the new Sith Order) All in all, I wonder wether our characters will be visiting the old tomb(who knows what Exar Kun left behind?), or if the Dxun moon will hide another deadly secret... Edit: Having read the description of the planet, there is another tidbit that I forgot which might be interesting. During the final weeks of the Kun/Qel-Droma Sith War against the Republic, their Mandalorian allies staged an attack on Onderon, led by Lord Mandalore himself. During the assault, a Republic fleet, under the command of Captain Vanicus, helped the planet of Onderon. Following their mandate, the Mandalorians chose not to surrender, and fled to the Dxun moon where most of the Mandalorians found their end. Lord Mandalore was shot down in the atmosphere of the Dxun Moon, and most likely went down fighting in a glorious battle against the monsters found on the Dxun moon. Lord Mandalore's helmet was found by another Mandalorian while they searched for him, and that one Mandalorian declares himself the new Lord Mandalore, continuing their tradition. Who knows, maybe we'll come across some Mandalorians who were left behind on the sacred moon..?
0rlo Posted July 16, 2004 Posted July 16, 2004 didn't kotor say that mandalore died by revan's hand? i guess not then. oh well, i guess it meant he died fighting revan's forces or this is another mandalore.
Hiroki Posted July 16, 2004 Posted July 16, 2004 The Mandalore that found the helmet of THAT Mandalore died by Revans hand.
RedHawke Posted July 17, 2004 Posted July 17, 2004 So Burrie, you are basically saying that Dxun is a pretty busy and dark place in Star Wars EU stories. If Dxun is like that, I really hope it is the place where in KOTOR: TSL you can also start down the Dark Path yourself! Sith Lord style! Also thanks Burrie for the heads up on Dxun by the way, as I am not all caught up on all of the EU storylines.
BountyHUNTER12 Posted July 23, 2004 Posted July 23, 2004 Dxun looks FAR superior to all of the planets that where in KOTOR1! Say: if you agree.
