Devs Should Go with Canon Endings of the Game

[Hallucination]

I disagree. I don't have any reason in particular, I just disagree.

Same here. KOTOR is about the choice of going LS or DS, and it defeats the purpose if it makes your old characters LS.

Where do people get these strange ideas?

 

Revan is not anything as far as canon goes. He/she was captured by the Jedi, defeated Malak, then left for the unknown regions. The Exile defeated the Sith Lords and has disapeared.

 

That is canon, not this rubbish about Revan being LSM and whatnot.

Irrelevant. Revan should be the PC

 

:clap2:

 

I agree

 

I really want to play Revan again! I miss her

 

Also, I want the CHOICE to be either LS or DS.

 

I want the CHOICE to say whether my Revan was LS/DS, male/female

 

I want the CHOICE to say whether my Exile was LS/DS, male/female

 

and again I say canon schmanon...

 

What's the point of giving me a choice to play a female character, then TELLING me, "Oh, by the way, that character is really a male character, so... uh, deal with it" !?!?

 

In my little world, it's my rules, and my Revan will always be a female.

 

And my Exile, too for that matter, but I'm not as fanatical about her...

I agree with most that you should choose who the PC is. In my world Revan was female and the Exile male and both were LS. I just can't be bad.

:clap2: I agree

I think he was joking mjpb3, because he put the guy in there.

yes, but I wasn't

[jedi3112]

There are no canon endings in KOTOR. Simply because the player has to choose between LS and DS as well as male/female. IT would also make Revan/Exile look stupid if they were a male in one game and a female in the next. The only explanation for this would be a lightsaber accident. Sorth of where Luke looses his hand, but something a bit lower and more to the center of the body. Unless the PCs aren't really humans, but a gender changing species. Also I don't rule the galaxy because I saved it, I rule the galaxy because I conquered it.

 

About the gender thing though, they could just make the PCs shemales and make everybody unhappy.

Im agreeing with battledog here. The story ends up being too fluttery and disorganized if tons of possible things could have happened. In the end, by saying "it could be either" you are going with the dark side because it means you can't use any of the characters who got killed in the darkside version. The fact remains that if Revan really did go evil in the first, then he had the star forge, and the main republic fleet would be in ruins, and he'd have bastila's battle meditation. For all intents and purposes, the republic would be screwed. TSL did not properly explain what happened. Like battledog said, the whole "oh im leaving into uncharted space for no reason cant take anyone with me" blah blah blah is a poor excuse because the sith still have bastila and they still have the star forge. TSL's story pretty much just accepted that the starforge was destroyed and that revan went light, otherwise the story doesnt make any sense. They just created the illusion of both working by fiddling with a couple of characters and giving you a choice in dialogue.

I agree that the story will be weak if they don't narrow it down some, but the republic wouldn't be screwed if Revan was evil, and the TSL doesn't just assume Revan went light. If you play through TSL and choose revan was darkside (not sure if male or female matter) you find a sith holocron where Master Uthar room used to be on korriban that explains what happens to the star forge. Basically when Revan left no one was strong enough to control it (it actually sucked the life out of anyone who tried) and the sith had to abandon it. Wheater or not the republic came back and destroyed it is unknown, but when Revan left the Sith lost that weapon.
