RealTalk Posted May 2, 2005 Posted May 2, 2005 Does anyone else think they should make an official Revan and Exile. Like what they did, male or female, and a picture? IMO that would make it a lot easier for continuity and all that. Cause ive always thought the biggest mistake with this game was the customizable characters. I think Revan has to of been a light side character. Really with the dialog in the game it seems they are tieng it back to him being LS, and its really impossible for me to believe that revan had a limitless source of military and men, and just decided one day that he didnt want to rule the galaxy and retreated to unknown space. Also i think he should be a male. But thats debate-able Exile i dunno, he could really go either way, because either way he causes the death of the remaining 3 jedi masters, and the 3 sith lords, and Atrius, whatever you consider her. As for a face and gender i guess it would have to be the one they marketed. Do you guys agree that both characters should have official looks and LS/DS, if so what should they be?

Padmi Skydrunkard Posted May 2, 2005 Posted May 2, 2005 No! But if they absolutely HAD to make official versions, if someone held a gun to a developers head and said what is the official Revan and Exile? Then I say one should be a guy and one should be a girl, one each! That is what I think. Play nice children!
Blarghagh Posted May 2, 2005 Posted May 2, 2005 I'm pretty sure LS Males are the cannon. This was done since most gamers are males and play heroes. I know this goes for KOTOR 1, not sure about 2.
edu11 Posted May 2, 2005 Posted May 2, 2005 Does anyone else think they should make an official Revan and Exile. Like what they did, male or female, and a picture? IMO that would make it a lot easier for continuity and all that. Cause ive always thought the biggest mistake with this game was the customizable characters. man this is RPG. You play whatever you want to play, you become whatever you want to become. If your choices don't have impact on the story then why play as DS or as female at all? Why bother choosing gender and side of the force? The good guys will win anyway. I don't think continuity is a mistake. On the contrary, i think that any sequel should respect any choice the previous title(s) offered whether it is "good" or "bad". I think Revan has to of been a light side character. Really with the dialog in the game it seems they are tieng it back to him being LS, and its really impossible for me to believe that revan had a limitless source of military and men, and just decided one day that he didnt want to rule the galaxy and retreated to unknown space. Also i think he should be a male. But thats debate-able <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Revan had 2 choices: to stay on his throne and rule the universe or to discover the ancient dark powers of the Sith race. If i were Revan i would have done the same choice. On the contrary i don't understand how a person could forgive Bastila and the Jedi fools who thought that they could manipulate the will of a Sith Lord and live to tell the tale!! So, you see that we have totally different perspectives and i believe that any sequel should satisfy us both.
Ioini Posted May 2, 2005 Posted May 2, 2005 I agree with Padmi, I think Revan should be a LS Male and the Exile should be a LS Female to satisfy both parties.

jotabe1789 Posted May 2, 2005 Posted May 2, 2005 They could also allow to recover savegames and take the portraits/sex/alignment from KotOR I&II, and take it from there.
Kalfear Posted May 2, 2005 Posted May 2, 2005 They could also allow to recover savegames and take the portraits/sex/alignment from KotOR I&II, and take it from there. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I like Jotabe's idea But "IF they had to make official versions. The storyline dictates clearly (based on the continuity and flow of story lines) both Revan and Exile would be LS Male. Kalfear Disco and Dragons Avatar Enlarged
Silvershadow Posted May 2, 2005 Posted May 2, 2005 Wasn't there already a thread about this? ...From what I recall, practically everybody felt that THEIR version of Revan/Exile should be the right one. Personally I think it's a bad idea... tick off too many people. Please review my fanfic!

Darth Flatus Posted May 2, 2005 Posted May 2, 2005 There was indeed a thread like this and my solution was to have Revan/Exile as morally ambiguous hermaphrodite jedi of indeterminate ethnic origin.
jotabe1789 Posted May 2, 2005 Posted May 2, 2005 At least in my game (male Exile), when time comes to chose Revan's sex, Atton first says that Revan is a woman. This would hint to her officially being woman. Yet, in KotOR I, plotwise, the love relationship Revan-Bastila is more important than Revan-Carth. This would hint to Revan being a man, officially. [edited for spellnig]

[edited for spellnig] <{POST_SNAPBACK}> yes but you can reply by saying that revan was a bloke. so (in the game world) no one really knows what revan was, and there is no official gender
Laozi Posted May 2, 2005 Posted May 2, 2005 I think if they ever do this they should wait 10yrs. or so, when the fevor has died off. It probaly won't happen since many so-called writers want to get a story out while interest is at its peek so they an take advantage of the old saying, "a fool and his money are soon parted" the way all Star Wars authors do. People laugh when I say that I think a jellyfish is one of the most beautiful things in the world. What they don't understand is, I mean a jellyfish with long, blond hair.
Kaftan Barlast Posted May 2, 2005 Posted May 2, 2005 I think 10 years is a very probable time for K3 to make its way out, if it ever gets taken up again. And if, against all odds, LA will allow someone to begin development of it- they're most likely to start a new storyline where neither revan or the exile will be of any consequence whatsoever.

Kor Qel Droma Posted May 2, 2005 Posted May 2, 2005 I think waiting a decade is a great idea. I'm getting a little tired of all of the Revan marks out there... Maybe the opening scene will be finding revan and Exile's corpses stuck together in 'unnatural' positions... Jaguars4ever is still alive. No word of a lie.

[edited for spellnig] <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I think if Kreia wasn't lying she mentioned Revan as HE, so he must be male....
Stargate: 2000 Posted May 2, 2005 Posted May 2, 2005 I am glad to see that there are more people out there comming around to the idea of K3 having nothing to do with Revan and the Exile what so ever, in my mind it would only make things worse to try a work them into the story of K3. They could also allow to recover savegames and take the portraits/sex/alignment from KotOR I&II, and take it from there. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Only problem with that idea is it seems more than likely that K3 will be out for Xbox360 (or whatever they are calling it) and not the original Xbox which means that there would be no save games for it to take the info from (and if the rumours are true then there will no hard drive in which to store them on). "The only difference between genius and stupidity is genius has its limits!" - Albert Einstein. "It's better to be thought a fool, than to open your mouth and remove all doubt!" "You can try to kill me, you'd fail!, but you can try!" - Revan. "When you have exhausted all other possibilities whatever remains, however improbable must be the truth." - Sherlock Holmes (a.k.a. Sir Arthur Conan Dole) "A lack of planning on your part, does not constitute an emergency on my part"

Believe me when I say that you are a minority and you'll stay a minority....... because avoiding the K1 and K2 story just because things became a little bit complicated would be an act of a coward and an act of an unimaginative individual or a group who would take the easy way just because, as I said, they lack style and imagination needed to get the job done....
Darth Flatus Posted May 2, 2005 Posted May 2, 2005 Hey kor thats exactly what i was thinking - i even posted somethign to that effect a while ago. I guess it isnt just me who does not give a monkey spank about revan and exile.

As for the Exile, who cares? Jaguars4ever is still alive. No word of a lie.
Wild Storm Posted May 2, 2005 Posted May 2, 2005 NO. No! NO! NO! Let the player decide and come up with a creative way for the portraits of Revan and Exile. Like in KOTOR 2, they basically tricked us into describing Revan.
Lord_of_Hunger Posted May 2, 2005 Posted May 2, 2005 For canon purposes, Exile is a male. You have a picture of him on your game manual. This one I think http://www.spielegrotte.de/angebot_kotor2.jpg Which kinda sucks since I always thought of the Exile as a female.
Darth Flatus Posted May 2, 2005 Posted May 2, 2005 Yeah but in that pic handmaiden and visas are holding blasters, i never gave them blasters when i played, does it mean i played it wrong? <_<
