Master_Keralys Posted June 15, 2004 Share Posted June 15, 2004 Okay, just a discussion of whether the best-selling game Knights of the Old Republic can be considered canon or not. I'm not as familiar with that particular era of sW history - I know the basics, but have only recently started reading the comics and whatnot set ther - so can someone clear this mystery up for me (Astrotoy7 should no, maybe StarWarsPhreak...)

dddds Posted June 17, 2004 Share Posted June 17, 2004 KotOR is 4000 years before Episode I and 40 years after Exar Kun war. In KotOR Republic is in existence for 20000 years. So in Episode I Republic is 24000 years old. Episode II is 10 after Episode I. Episode III is 2-3 years after Episode II. Episode IV is 20 years after Episode III. Episode V after IV- not certain. Episode VI 1 year after Episode V. Is that it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poggle Posted June 17, 2004 Share Posted June 17, 2004 i would have thought kotor is canon for that era as it is the first material in that era while exar kun is mentioned little from that era is really in the game so kotor probably can be considered canon.

Plus, it has 113 awards, the most awards any game has received (spelling?) in history. Thirty five of the 113 awards are Game of the Year for ____(music, gameplay, graphics, length, etc.). It is a must play!! KotOR 2 better be good!! I'm gonna get that. KotOR hit me so much with the awesome storyline, it even affected my name: Majin Revan; Revan was a Sith Lord in KotOR. Oh, and he was...spoiler anyone?: You are Darth Revan, your memory gets erased by the Jedi Council and the traitorous laser blast from Darth Malak's ship into yours. Basically, nobody knows if Revan turned bad or good, that is why there are two story lines in KotOR: Dark Side and Light Side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astrotoy7 Posted June 20, 2004 Share Posted June 20, 2004 Hi Keralys, are you back !? if so , welcome back ! KOTOR fits into 2nd level (EU) canon well enough, it makes use of the comics that were published explaining events before and after, indeed, there are numerous references to these events in the game dialogue and the little story tidbits you get during loadup... Since its highly unlikely GL had any input into KOTOR, and any films will be made about this era, it can reside safely as some as a piece of 'unaissailable' canon, namely 'cause it doesnt involve the films' characters/event..... mtfbwya Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've played it 12 times (on my 13th) and every time it's different. Buy It. WHo cares on which computer you buy it on. Buy it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest HalfSwedeLarz Posted July 3, 2004 Share Posted July 3, 2004 yes it is a cool country and in KotOR can you fly YOUR OWN ship? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuzzyfreaker Posted July 3, 2004 Share Posted July 3, 2004 norway's better Anyway, back on topic, you own a ship, the ebon hawk but you really don't fly it, you just choose where you want to go. The only other actions you preform on the ship are killing gizkas, talking to people, and shooting the laser turrets during those little random space battles. Funny story: I was in one of those space battles, and they were so dang easy, i decided how long you really have to take out those ships. Anyway, i swiched to my VCD player and popped in A New Hope and watched it. I switched back after the movie, and i was still alive... (best part about singapore, they have VCD's. Low quality DVD's. 12 bucks U.S each, Original and Legal movies, and they have Star Wars on VCD. Yay! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
