Question About Atton

KotOR_rules2004 · May 17, 2005

What is this "sacrifice" what I keep seeing artwork of and keep seeing it mentioned? Did I just miss a huge part of the game or something??? AS far as I know, Atton does or says nothing, because after a few questions all I can ask him is if he wants to play pazzak!

It's a fairly significant chunk of female-exile plot that was cut from the finished game. Essentially, Atton follows the exile and takes on Scion to buy her time, sacrificing himself in the process. Eji has an excellent mix of the recorded voice acting here, if you want to take a listen.

It is kind of gut-wrenching (okay, so I'm a softy!) but it is great and I was oh-so-mad that it wasn't in-game!

I want to see it because he gets his arm cut off, and it would be kick ass to see Sion make him look as he does.

Arkendale · May 17, 2005

Poor Atton...you're pure evil kemis...

kemis · May 17, 2005

:rolleyes:

Im not evil, Atton is a moron, Sion cut his arm off and was going to leave him be until atton called him back for more.

Silvershadow · May 17, 2005

That's just because he was trying to keep Sion away from the Exile.

Hence the whole "Did I save you yet?" bit.

At least, that's what I gathered from it.

Andkat · May 17, 2005

That whole cutscene was logically cut. It was unrealistic. Here is my version:

*Sion tortures Atton*

*ATton suses medpac*

Atton: Toss thermal detonater.

Sion: Refelx save: Failure

Sion: Stunned

Atton: CRitical Hit, 100 damge

SIon: Stunned

Atton: whale son SIon till he recovers, and continues obliterating him, occasionallly activating medpcas or stims.

Now that's the Kotor-engine version. Excpet that I don't bother w/ combat readouts and mechanics, so unfortunetly I couldn't go in-depth and present Sion and Atton's precise saves.

Oh, and speaking of SIon, anyone ever wonder how he would regenerate if someone shoved a thermal detonater down his gullet or vaporized him with a turbolaser?

kemis · May 17, 2005

Save the Exile might be true, but that would be a poor assumption for atton to make in-game. Considering how strong I am in the game. So it's like Atton get his ass ripped and scarred yet the exile obliterates Sion regardless.

Or you could try the old Windu trick and aim for the neck. Surely he can't regenerate that.

Andkat · May 18, 2005

I'm earnestly surprise dthat Sion has never been semi-decapitated at least once. Perhaps the force regrows his limb, or the force molds into his limbs.

kemis · May 18, 2005

I seriously think the force is whats keeping him together, maybe his power stems so far that he can manipulate the force to keep him stable or from reaching near death. It is possible that over time his bones bcome like brittle and can brake, and they rebuild. This is my theory, since in the game when you fight him, you can make him let go of what he clung onto for so long, the force.

Let Atton alone...!!! actually is the only character that follows the Exile any were... from good to heaven.. and from bad to hell....

Is not only the easy character to influence.. is the only one that follows you were ever you go....

Your best mate ( as male Exile ) you best lover ( as female Exile )

Is like a pet... is you best friend what ever you do.

The Yeti of 66 · May 18, 2005

According to the earliest shots and descriptions his bones are in such small fractures that his head would not come off, or any of his limbs for that matter, because they will reform nearly the moment he suffers such a wound which is why he had to give up the force to die.

I think they cut it because they want him in the next game.

kemis · May 18, 2005

You just repeated what I said.

The Yeti of 66 · May 18, 2005

Yeah but I added to it. The fact that he doesn't separate. In fact according to the first bit about him he could reshape with broken pieces to avoid a stab wound but that's a bit cheesy so the hole broken and put back together is much more interesting.

kemis · May 18, 2005

but I did say he puts his bones together

regardless, I showed Sion things he never fathomed a lightsaber could do

Teehee! I usually consider myself too old and cynical to be a "fangirl."

Cloris

Andkat · May 18, 2005

Yes, but if he's blasted direct;y and accuraetly by, say, a cpaitol class laser, I doubt that there would be anything left to reform, force or no......

Pffft... I'm old and cynical, but I'm still a fangirl. :lol:

Darth Flatus · May 18, 2005

why are there so many posts about sion in an Atton appreciation thread?

Darkside · May 18, 2005

First, I'd like to say hi. I've been lurking about for around a week now and decided to join the fun.

Now, to stay on topic, I'm sort of glad they cut the scene from the game. It was interesting and sweet, but as I believe Cloris said, a little too gut-wrenching (to be named "Darkside" I sure am a pansy ). As a fangirl (yes, another to add to your ranks) I would rather not have to WATCH Atton die. The happy ending where he and the Exile walk off together would have been nice though :lol: .

I would have gladly sacrificed Atton to get a better ending than we did!

Sion! KILL!! o:)

PS: I'm extremely suprised the name 'Darkside' hadn't been already taken But welcome to the boards anyway
