Revan 411 Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 Pick which you like better and post your reason why you like that preson! I like nihilus for alot of reason number 1 reason why is cause he has a dark past and a mistarys future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rev7 Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 Nihilius would most likely own. I mean, he does have that force drain ability, and can 'eat' a world. Why couldn't he defeat Malak? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FoolInTheWave Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 Personally I like Darth Malak better. He just seemed more bad@$$ to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fredi Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 Darth Nihilu ... He looks cooler and he is way more powerfull. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robondacob Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 Malak and Nihilius are tools. I think that Nihilius would win in a fight, but since he can't say anything that makes sense, I have to go with liking Malak better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Da_Man_2423 Posted June 15, 2008 Share Posted June 15, 2008 Personally I like Darth Malak better. He just seemed more bad@$$ to me. That's because we actually learned a tad bit about him in K1. In K2, Nihilus kinda just sits there waiting for you to come to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacTavish Posted June 15, 2008 Share Posted June 15, 2008 I like Nihilus more. In K1, it only took one person (Revan) to defeat Malak. In TSL, It took about 3 (Visas, Mandalore, and the Exile) who are all very powerful players, plus the destruction of his ship. ^^my 250th post!!

PoiuyWired Posted June 15, 2008 Share Posted June 15, 2008 Malak maybe a brute, but he is a sith nonetheless. Nihilus is only an ex-sith degenerated into a beast controlled and chained by the lust for his hungar of the force/souls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ctrl Alt Del Posted June 15, 2008 Share Posted June 15, 2008 Nihilus looks cooler, that being the sole reason as to why he illustrates the cover for K2. Other than that, he has no story, is easy to beat and don't say anything comprehensible. He actually represents how much Obsidian failed with K2 for me. Malak wins this contest.

Revan 411 Posted June 15, 2008 Author Share Posted June 15, 2008 Nihlis is better cause he seems more mistarys and more eviler and well malak is just a idiout who used the Star Forge wayy too much and it came to his downfall while Nihlis was more smarter and was more powerful then malak. If K2 was finished then Nihlis would become the best villion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rev7 Posted June 15, 2008 Share Posted June 15, 2008 Isn't Nihilius more powerful than Malak? We are talking about who would win in a duel right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astor Posted June 15, 2008 Share Posted June 15, 2008 Here we go... Nihlis is better cause he seems more mistarys and more eviler[/Quote] He's more 'eviler'? Really? I guess that depends on how you equate evil. And he's not mysterious, just badly written. malak is just a idiout who used the Star Forge wayy too much[/Quote] I wouldn't say his use of the Star Forge was too much, or that was what caused his downfall. His overconfidence caused his downfall, overconfidence brought about by what he percieved as Revan's weakness. Nihlis was more smarter and was more powerful then malak. [/Quote] I'm wondering how you reach this conclusion. We don't see (or hear) enough of him to tell that he's smarter. He certainly wasn't smart enough to end the Triumvirate (strange, considering he can apparently eat the Force). If K2 was finished then Nihlis would become the best villion. No, he wouldn't be. As for my vote, Malak, if we're going on character development. If we're going on overblown, ridiculous Force abilities, Nihilus. And remember, spell-check is your friend.

vodrev21 Posted June 15, 2008 Share Posted June 15, 2008 I like nihilus better than malak i really wish he would get more of a backstory. As for a duel i think malak would win. Reason for that is simple if nihilus is so powerful why did he not take over the entire sith empire from malak and/or Revan. Cuz obviously he was alive and probably just as powerful as he was during tsl game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Da_Man_2423 Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 I like nihilus better than malak i really wish he would get more of a backstory. Wait, what? Nihilus gets MORE backstory than Malak? I don't recall that at all. As for a duel i think malak would win. Reason for that is simple if nihilus is so powerful why did he not take over the entire sith empire from malak and/or Revan. Cuz obviously he was alive and probably just as powerful as he was during tsl game Nihilus probably was powerful...but I doubt he just instantly got powerful enough out of thin air to challenge Revan or Malak. He didn't do enough side-quests to gain XP and level up . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Foley Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 Malak is a far more developed character, though I was really touched when we got that one insight into Nihilus's core beliefs when he said, "Rofghahdstjhadnfag". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inyri Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 Nihilus has absolutely no depth unless you start speculating about him. He's an overpowered, silly character even if you delve into the cut content which makes him undefeatable (Yet you'd somehow be expected to defeat him anyway? Sounds like Star Wars' version of FF7's Sephiroth -- no wonder people drool all over him). By the end of KotOR you have some feelings about Malak. He has a background, he has motivations, he has recognizable speech... I don't see how people can possibly like Nihilus better than Malak. Nihilus has no personality and no motivation beyond primal instincts. As flat as Malak's character may be, at least he has some character. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, it was nice that they took the effort to develop his character so much. Visas: My Lord, I have felt a great disturbance in the force... Nihilus: Gurgle, Gurgle, Glarg!

Isn't it amazing how they can give life and personality to Nihilus and T3-M4, who say nothing but nonsense that isn't even translated? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inyri Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 Isn't it amazing how they can give life and personality to Nihilus and T3-M4, who say nothing but nonsense that isn't even translated?Not really... since neither Nihilus or T3-M4 had any personality. They did fine with R2-D2, but they didn't even try with T3-M4, for the most part. Especially in K1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TKA-001 Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 I'm not sure what I can say about Nihilus, but I agree that T3 was an actual character. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Foley Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 T3 is a droid, it isn't even necessary to give him a character. I'll admit, Nihilus has a lot of room to be developed into a very interesting character given proper backstory, but KotOR III is way too far off even to consider counting that. And in game, the planet eater gets taken down like he's a playground bully. First time I played the game, I thought I was in for an actual fight.
