RobQel-Droma Posted October 26, 2005 Share Posted October 26, 2005 Well, since there have been discussions about whether to play as Revan/the Exile, or play as a new PC, I wondered what most people think. I would go for a new PC, I am not going to explain all my reasons, I just think it would be better; You start off with a "blank sheet" so to speak, you don't have to worry about the level of your character, or his items (he wouldn't have any ), and you would choose your alignment as you went along, instead of choosing it at the beginning in the menu.

Achilles Posted October 26, 2005 Share Posted October 26, 2005 New PC. The logistics of making the other two choices work are just too much. It doesn't make sense story-wise. It doesn't make sense gamplay-wise. It doesn't make sense. Make it Revan's love child. Make it the Exile's second cousin. Just make it a new PC.

spinkle Posted October 26, 2005 Share Posted October 26, 2005 heh...the Exile's second cousin. New PC, definitely. i'd hate to see this franchise end up with a Link or Samus Aran legacy PC since one of the most interesting aspects of TSL is that you aren't Revan. I've played the Exile, it's time to move on. And Achilles is right, it's a logistic nightmare to perpetuate either character. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kensai Posted October 26, 2005 Share Posted October 26, 2005 New PC, but definately Revan and Exile should be important NPC's in the story. Evenif they aren't we should expect some deep information about them and what has happened. Or maybe, like TSL, you choose the path Revan and the Exile took via cunning selective dialogue options.

fresnosmokey02 Posted October 26, 2005 Share Posted October 26, 2005 New PC. I think Revan and Exile should be goals, prizes, something to reach to learn something new. I don't think they should be party members, just people you run into on your journey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheExileReturns Posted October 26, 2005 Share Posted October 26, 2005 New PC, and it think it should be a person who is being trained by the new council of Jedi on Telos.(Assuming you played a light side character.) I think, between the blending of Echani combat learned from Atton and Handmaiden as well as Visas' knowledge (force sight etc) and Bao-Dur's Technical expertise, This new NPC would be a formidable Jedi to go look for Revan and the Exile possibley with the help of Mira (she's good at tracking people) and the droids T3 and HK47. Of course, the Ebon Hawk would be yours again, because the Exile would not have taken it much like Revan did not. If you played a dark side character, it would be possibley Korriban and you would be trained by Visas and whoever else was left from the Kotor II party if they became Sith and served the Exile.

Shem Posted October 26, 2005 Share Posted October 26, 2005 Opps, I pick the wrong one. I meant to pick new PC, but I accidently picked Revan. Oh well. Gotta be a new PC on a mission to find Revan. Hopefully Bastila gets involved and possibly Carth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IndianaSolo Posted October 26, 2005 Share Posted October 26, 2005 New PC. Without question. In fact, I won't even play K3 if Revan or the Exile was the PC again. Not because I don't like them, but because it would limit what can be done with the characters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vladimir-Vlada Posted October 26, 2005 Share Posted October 26, 2005 If you ask me, I'd prefer to see both Revan and Ry'ghol back as PC's and NPC's, but I wouldn't mind a new one much. Personally, I would like all three... Heh! I beat you all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Doctor Posted October 26, 2005 Share Posted October 26, 2005 ^ Who is Ry'ghol? New PC. Revan or the Exile being the PC character wouldn't work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobQel-Droma Posted October 27, 2005 Author Share Posted October 27, 2005 I think that is like the True Sith name for "the Exile" or something like that. Personally, I think that if we aren't playing as Revan or the Exile, which I don't thing we will, we won't see them as party members. We might meet them, but not as party members.

Achilles Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 New PC, and it think it should be a person who is being trained by the new council of Jedi on Telos.(Assuming you played a light side character.) Man oh man. This has to be one of the best K3 ideas that I've seen. You start off at the Academy at Telos (nice tie in with TSL). Atris is gone (because she could have died in the last game), but the Jedi are struggling to rebuild and there are other Masters there to train you. Being a Jedi Academy with Jedi and Sith artifacts, it would make a great lead in for LS and DS play. Because it was a planet from TSL, they can tie the games together without having to resurrect Dantooine or Korriban. Major kudos to you. I think you're definitely on to something.

Alkonium Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 My idea is that you play as Revan's Padawan/Sith Apprentice. At the beginning, the Ebon Hawk crashlands on whatever planet Revan and his/her Padawan/Sith Apprentice. The Exile gets out and says "Revan, is that you?", then you can say "No, I'm his Padawan learner", "No, I'm her Padawan learner", "No, I'm his Sith Apprentice" or "No, I'm her Sith Apprentice", also determining Revan's Gender and Alignment. Although Revan can still change alignments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redleaderwedge Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 I kind of like that Idea, as that I would like to have both Revan and "The Exile" in my party at some point in the game. Because they're charachters were too deep, and the moment between Carth and The Exile about finding Revan was too hinting to be completel ignored.

RedHawke Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 Make it Revan's love child. Make it the Exile's second cousin. Just make it a new PC. I got it! We get to play Revan's sisters, and the Exile's brothers, former roommate! Seriously though, New PC for the win! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raynoc Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 Yeah I picked New Pc too, Just because I like to learn the background of the PC i am playing. We know most of the stuff that went on with the Exile and Revan....So New PC for me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, that's how they would be called by the True Sith (I guess). As far as I see it, Revan (according to my dictionary, no necesearily true of course ) means "The Destined One" and Ry'ghol means "The Exile". Doesn't mean that it's ture, but still...

TheExileReturns Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 I think all of us should be writing for Kotor III, because our ideas are already way better than they had in kotor II. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vladimir-Vlada Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 So you're saying that the Exile would have been known as Darth Ry'ghol Yes, but he would call himself Darth Kane (when he falls to the Dark Side that is). I think all of us should be writing for Kotor III, because our ideas are already way better than they had in kotor II. I agree, but still Obsidian made an ending that opens MILLION more possible endings, so they did at least something good with the story. I have an imagination that Bioware and Obsidian work together on KOTOR 3, and that they hire some people (or volontiers) from their and these Forums to write the scenario for KOTOR 3 and make ideas for improvments for gameplay; otherwise: I'd choose Bioware over Obsidian in less than 1/300000 of a second (the amount of time that requiers light to travel 1 kilometre).
