jaguars4ever Posted November 29, 2004 Share Posted November 29, 2004 Yeah, the PC is holding the reb saber, Malak is holding the purple saber... No, look carefully. In the PC's right hand is the BLUE saber, and the PC's left hand is the PURPLE saber. Malak is using his traditional RED saber with both hands. EDIT: And he's just hit the PC for 12 damage, mind you. :ph34r: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ivan the Terrible Posted November 29, 2004 Share Posted November 29, 2004 Hmm. They did imply "I am your father" would look childsplay compared to TSL's take - there might be something to this Malak thing. :ph34r: <{POST_SNAPBACK}> They also did their level best to avoid spoiling the 'big twist' in the review, which would be pretty pointless if they posted a picture which shows what the twist is. It would be like posting a picture of the cutscene showing Revan removing his mask in a review for the first game. I'm sticking to my theory that it's something inconsequential; a hallucination, an illusion, a training exercise, or something other than your character suddenly finding himself surrounded by Jedi who shouldn't be alive and a Dark Lord of the Sith who pretty clearly met his end in the first game. I made this half-pony half-monkey monster to please you But I get the feeling that you don't like it What's with all the screaming? You like monkeys, you like ponies Maybe you don't like monsters so much Maybe I used too many monkeys Isn't it enough to know that I ruined a pony making a gift for you?

Ludozee Posted November 29, 2004 Share Posted November 29, 2004 [speculation] Perhaps Malak's body is possesed by Revans spirit and is Bastilla therefore in love with Malak. As a DS PC you might encounter them on Korriban when you search for Revan [/speculation] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSLuke Posted November 29, 2004 Share Posted November 29, 2004 Seems like the Matrix has invated Star Wars, if this scene is a simulation.... :ph34r: And by the light of the moon He prays for their beauty not doom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That hardly strikes me as "inconsequential". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if what you say is true then it still adds together with Revan since many of the old party member will be cameo's. But i doubt its to much in with prior Kotor1 less the make a walk through memory lane with kotor1, otherwise people who havent played kotor1 would be lost in plot, if its linked alot to Kotor1 plot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm retorting Ivan's statement that the scene is of little consequence to the spoiler aspect of the story. The damage referral was indicative of the scene's playability - thus supporting further evidence of importance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barzarel Posted November 29, 2004 Share Posted November 29, 2004 Maybe you were captured on Dantoine Along with some of those Darth Malak used as force tanks, just might been put a different place and somehow god knows how managed to escape starforge Destruction. Think making the Matrix over would fall down the drain, but its however not unlikely the two Revan and Pc have a linked past if you even have to meet Revan.

Bodhi BloodWave Posted November 29, 2004 Share Posted November 29, 2004 Just an wierd idea out of the blue, but thinking back at some other screenies, there was a few that had to do with a tomb and you surviving some darkside energy i belive ::muses:: Could it not be that this 'flashback' is the effect of the said energies, it affecting you diffrently depending on what you do?

Darth_Gandalf Posted November 29, 2004 Share Posted November 29, 2004 Well, what are the only possibilities for a lightside Malak to be present 5 years after his death? Some Ideas: 1. Inconsistency w/ prequel -- Malak is redeemed and fixed up. 2. Clone -- Star Wars is fond of clones; easily possible. 3. Survival -- Malak somehow survived the Star Forge's destruction and force healed? 4. Hallucination -- Malak is not there, it's a Force Hallucination. 5. Droid -- It's an assassin droid gussied up like Malak. 6. Shapeshifter -- It's an alien who changes to look like Malak, thus only 12 damage. Anyway, there's a few thoughts. I'm still confused, though. "You shall not pass!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bodhi BloodWave Posted November 29, 2004 Share Posted November 29, 2004 Only option of the above i'd be willing to put a bet on aside from my own guess would be the last one, a shapeshifter of some kind ::wrinkles his nose:: That leaves an question about how the shifter knows how to use a lightsaber tho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Biggs Posted November 29, 2004 Share Posted November 29, 2004 I'm sure it's been stated somewhere that flashbacks and so forth were out of the question in KOTOR II as specified by LucasArts. ..in fact, I'm 99% positive...perhaps a Dev could shed light on that one for us, but something tells me the explanation for this screenshot MUST be a simple one, otherwise they wouldn't spill such a HUGE spoiler like that in an OFFICIAL magazine. ....me thinks we're being led astray somehow.... EDIT: Will I see any old characters from the first game? Yes. most old characters from the old game will be seen/mentioned if either alive or dead.

Kazic Posted November 29, 2004 Author Share Posted November 29, 2004 Hey everybody I'm back. Malak is holding the red saber and these are most certainly NOT force ghosts. As for what they are...haven't a clue. Perhaps it's some force sensitive Sith camoflaguing themselves with the force to look like people from the PC's past.
