KOTOR Film when?
Why is she so difficult to work with?
>>63689848
Now that Disney has purged the old EU - never.
It's dead, Jim. The old EU is dead. Forever
KOTOR isn't happening unless they find a way to link Darth Vader and "the prophecy" to it.
>>63689918
Or if Disney decides to do a complete remake of KOTOR in order for it to fit the new canon
>>63689848
but revan is in the new flick
>>63689891
Didn't some execs say tease that KOTOR could be back in the canon again?
>mfw Kylo Ren turns good after he battles Rey and she heals him from his brainwashing done by Snoke
>>63689947
What did they change that would make KOTOR non-canon?
>>63689963
Would like the source of that.
Might actually happen sooner or later, seeing as KOTOR is one of the most popular SW installments that isn't directly connected to the mainline films.
>>63690028
The whole history of Jedi and Sith, for example. Can't be arsed to google that shit, but they've undone quite a lot of things, including name changes and all that stuff
It's also impossible to bring KOTOR as it is back into canon without creating some chronological mindfucks
>>63690101
>The whole history of Jedi and Sith has changed
what the fuck are you talking about
Genuinely wouldn't mind Bastilla being Asian. She looked Asian in all the art except for in game.
>>63689848
Never, Disney wants to make money, and pandering to Xbox owners from 12 years ago is not how you hit all the major demographics.
I'd rather a 100 Year Darkness Or Darth Bane movie.
>>63689963
They're already taken some things from it like Taris and Rakata Prime was included on the new map of a galaxy. The info about Kylo's saber mentions a "Great Scourge of Malachor" that sounds like they just took what happened to Malachor V.
>>63690222
>Xbox owners
>>63689963
Not KOTOR.
SWTOR, the MMO made by Bioware.
You know, that game where they keep bringing Revan back to life so you could loot his pants.
>>63690258
Only xbox kiddies creamed over KotoR, since it was the first rpg for typical xbox console faggot.
Master race had been enjoying quality wrpgs for decades, and kotor is subpar as far as wrpgs go anyway.
>>63690164
Use the fucking google, Luke. Then compare.
I'm not gonna write down two decades worth of lore
>>63690164
I think they've made the whole Sith species non-canon, so the Dark Jedi who got exiled after the Hundred Year Darkness never went to Korriban or rather Korriban never existed or if it did exist it had only regular humans there and not the Sith. Which does shit all to explain why the fuck do they call themselves the Sith if there's no Sith race.
>dark bastila will never kick in my balls
>>63690304
You mean this game?
>>63690304
That's simply due to Bioware writers having a huge hard-on for their shitty grey Jedi character
Revan was an awful character in KOTOR and they've only made it worse in SWTOR. I have no idea why people love Revan so much
>>63690164
In EU the Sith are
>the adherents of the philosophical view created by the ancient red-skinned Sith species which was further developed by the Dark Jedi exiles who happened to stumble upon them after 100 Year Darkness
>while 100 Year Darkness does happen in the new canon, it appears to be somewhat different from the EU one: the Sith existed before the aforementioned conflict, however in the old EU Dark Jedi exiles only assume this name after they stumble upon Sith species somewhere in uncharted depths of space
>Great Hyperspace War (basically a WWII forthe old EU) never happens, and guess what, it's directly responsible for almost all the shit ever since, 'cause Sith are sore losers it seems
etc etc etc
>>63690335
>two decades worth of lore
new star wars canon is only like a year old
>>63690337
but where is this ever mentioned in the new canon? what source?
>>63690362
The funny thing is, /v/ was proved wrong as usual
>>63690415
You want to pretend that SWTOR is a success or something?
>>63690415
>/v/ was proved wrong
Oh wow, I wasn't aware EA shills ventured to other boards. How much are they paying you for this, champ? Or do you do it for free?
>Kotor
>good
[Carth looks troubled. Perhaps you should try talking to him?]
>>63690440
I'm not pretending, it's 4 years old and still has a part-subscription model
I know it's funny to namedrop Tortanic but it hasn't been relevant for years. It's like saying 29:30 is representative of the cutscenes today
>>63690304
How the fuck are they going to make SWTOR canon without canonizing KOTOR1-2 along the way?
They'd have to do
>>63689947
>>63690242
"Taken" =/= canonized them in their previous incarnations, anon. New Rakata Prime may actually not be related to the homeplanet of all-powerful species from KOTOR
>>63690484
>I'm not pretending, it's 4 years old and still has a part-subscription model
And? So does most MMO's.
>Kotor
>not kotor II
cu.cks
>>63690404
>new star wars canon is only like a year old
So fucking what?
You obviously wanted a comparison between two canons. Google it.
Although one kind anon here already summarized a few points for you lazy bum
>>63690403
>>63689891
>Malachor is canon
get fucked it's coming back
>>63690532
Most MMOs go full F2P within a year, dipshit
The only successful MMO with a full subscription program is WoW, for obvious reasons
>>63690327
Tbqf senpai the first KotOR felt like it was written by a Teenager
KotOR 2 felt like it was written by a college freshmen
>>63690554
Both KOTORs can easily be split into two trilogies. Too much stuff happening in these games, after all
>>63690518
>canonizing KOTOR 2
Oh man, you have no idea, do you?
They completely raped the shit out of the story/lore from that game. Nihilus is no longer a thing, Exile was never a wound in the force, just a love-struck Jedi that followed after Revan, Revan is a weak-ass faggot who got mind tricked by the Sith Emperor, Kreia is just plain non-existing, and there's a ton of other shit that's just thrown out the window because it's not compliant with the MMO story that Bioware wants to write.
>>63690575
True enough.
>>63690571
Well I guess that means games like Terra and Rift are huge massive success, because they started as subscription based until they went partial F2P due to lack of subs.
kek
>>63690571
SWTOR has gone f2p, you idiot.
>>63690589
>Exile
>lol she's now a ghost that follows Revan around cause lol fuck you
Goddammit I hate the book that lead to SWTOR so much
>>63690568
You do realize it might be completely different from Malachor we know by KotOR2, right?
It happens quite often after franchise resets.
And Rakata Prime might very well end up as a planet of manlet smurfs
>>63690620
it's like pottery, it rhymes
>arguing about canon
Stop, Disney is not going to deleve into any EU or new canon for their movies.
It will just be OT qasui-remakes. You're gonna get the ANH prequel, a Boba stand alone, a Han Solo stand alone, and eventually probably a Vader stand alone.
You're never getting Old Republic or Rebels movie. All movies are going to tie directly into established movie characters/plots lines.
Best to accept it now and get used to it.
>>63690615
Read again idiot, it still has a subscription. Remember how I said "part-subscription model"? What don't you understand?
>>63690610
Existence of a subscription model isn't the only marker. SWTOR is still performing far better than both games you mentioned
>>63690677
>I will finish what we started
CONFIRMED FOR KYLO
>>63690671
The Malachor is a reference to the Clone Wars cartoon made by Pablo Hidalgo, the author of the Visual Dictionary.
And the Clone Wars cartoon has already retconned the old republic anyway.
>>63690589
I know, anon. That's kinda my point. The whole thing is so messed up it would require a complete and thorough rework in order to be induced into Disney canon
>>63690678
Nah fuck that I'm gonna be salty forever about them removing based Kyle Katarn and Jaina Solo
>>63690556
I can't find any of the new canon that mentions anything from the hyperspace war ( that didnt happen) the ancient sith species or anything. Wookiepedia doesnt have a canon tab for these either. All I'm asking is for the sauce of your claims, what book or comic? because then I would go and read it.
>>63690484
>>63690415
fucking moron
SWTOR is shit regardless of wether it makes money because the whole idea behind it was that they turned a good star wars WRPG series that focused on story and characters into a generic grindfest MMO.
I honestly don't give a shit if it makes money or not just like I don't give a shit about the story (assuming there is one) in WoW. The "stories" in all those MMOs always amount to something as asinine as "go kill 10 rats for me" or "loot that dungeon" or some shit.
>>63690696
>SWTOR is still performing far better than both games you mentioned
Good luck bioware, one day you'll make profit.
>>63689918
The prophecy isn't even that important in the grand scheme of things.
>>63690589
BW well and truly fucked Revan
>dungeon boss in vanilla, apparently dies for good
>comes back yet again in his own xpac, only this time his dark side is present and his light side ghost leads you to him
BW have such a boner for Revan it's unfunny. At least the Emperor is enjoyable in KOTFE
>>63690733
Are you for real?
You asked what exactly changed between two canons
This anon >>63690403 provided just some of the essentials from THE OLD Expanded Universe, not the one created by Disney.
Google the rest yourself.
>>63690849
It pisses me off when I remember what Avellone wanted to do with a potential KOTOR 3.
>"The entire second game is littered with clues as to 'why didn't Revan destroy the infrastructure here? What was he trying to make sure was still intact? What did he/she see that no one else saw?' I thought that was giving a nice nod to 'wait a minute, Revan realises there's an even larger force at work here, and he's focusing his efforts on that and keeping the big picture in mind'. That was one thing - the idea that there was a larger, global conspiracy."
>That third game would cast you as "the Exile" and allow you to track Revan's path. "Whether you encounter him or not..." he pauses, wary of spoilers in case the game ever happens in the future. "The idea was that even before the 'modern day' Sith came into being in The Old Republic ... there were even more distant Sith Lords that were considered the true Sith, and the idea that they were still lurking out there in the galaxy waiting for a chance to strike, kind of like the Shadows in Babylon 5, I thought would be a cool finale for that Old Republic trilogy.
>"Part of the fun with designing them," he adds, "was if you have these incredibly powerful Force users and they have their whole hidden domain out in the distant reaches of the galaxy, what would that Sith empire really look like at the hands of these things?
>"If they could shape entire planets or galaxies or nebulas, and they had all these slave races at their disposal, how cool would that be, to go into the heart of darkness and you're the lone Jedi and/or new version of the Sith confronting these guys? What would that be like? I thought that would be pretty epic."
>>63690719
bullshit.
the current cannon is the 7 movies and the 3d clone wars projects.
1000 years seperate KOTOR and current cannon.
>>63690957
More like 3000 amirite familia?
>>63690957
Clone Wars cartoon retconned the old republic already, kek. They gave old republic ancient tech, like in the Tales of the Jedi.
Which is a good thing, Bioware's setting was a shitty OT rip off anyway, glad it's gone forever.
>>63690922
fuck Lucas Arts
they ruined Battlefront and Kotor for literally no reason.
>>63691014
I just noticed Batltefront is on sale, is it even worth picking up?
>>63691040
I never played it
I was referring to the never released "Battlefront 3" that some fucking Lucasarts producer canceled because he wanted to make The Force Unleashed instead.
>>63691040
Which Battlefront are you talking about?
EA/Dice's? Fuck no, that shit's absolute garbage with no fucking content. I mean, shit, that cancelled and unfinished version of Battlefront 3 has more content than the new Battlefront.
>>63690871
I know the old EU. I originally asked why Revan and the old republic couldn't be implemented in the new canon. Yet to have an answer. If you don't know it ok
>>63691242
>why
Because Disney doesn't want it there.
Really, that's all there is to it.
>>63691242
Because everything that happens in KOTOR is a direct followup to this
>>63690403
Hundred Year Darkness as it happened in the old EU, Great Hyperspace War, Sith species, ancient Sith Lords - everything was purged. It doesn't exist in Disney canon.
Disney would need to revert the purge and correct the timeline.
How difficult is that to grasp?
Oh, and this, of course
>>63691354
I enjoying TORtanic. Gave it a go earlier this month. Imperial Agent storyline is pretty good.
>>63690258

>>63691432
>tfw she will never do lines off your dick
>>63691462
no u ahahahahahaha
>>63691354
>>63691399
that's not a reason why it can't be implemented tho which is whole reason for this discussion. I know it doesnt exists in the new canonyetAnd it didnt exist at the time of the OT either
>>63691499
Is that the angry midget jew on her tshirt?
>>63691558
Paul Simon?
>>63691354
And cause they'll probably have to pay people extra for using shit they've created. And they're jews so that'll never happen. Which is why they just take something someone else created and change the name
>>63691598
Lol no, Disney owns that shit. It's bioware that had to pay for the license.
The simple truth is that they have no use for it.
Play Kotor for the fist time when it just comes out.
Hear a story about the game being about 2 dudes called Revan and Malik.
Drunk as fuck and cant think of a name for my new charactor... Fuck it types in Revan.
Mid way through game when the plot twist is revealed... Your real identity is Revan... I fucking know that... That is the fucking name I typed in... OH YOU MEAN IM THE DARK SITH LORD REVAN!
lol 10/10
>>63692274
Kind of wish they'd have built in a response to that.
Like
>You walk up to HK-47.
>Look like the spitting image of the Dark Lord Revan.
>Introduce yourself as Revan
>HK-47 instantly unlocks the blocked segment that would only open when he returns to his master
They could even have played it up for laughs, like it's not REALLY you. It's just the robot's programming acting up, like that one time he wiped out an entire company to help boost its master's productivity.
>>63692274
kek 10/10 post family
The ending of KOTOR is really weak desu. Everything building up to finding out you're Revan is fantastic but then it sort of just fizzles out after you get to the Star Forge.
>>63690922
>>63690922

>>63695415
This better be young Kreia or I'll have an extremely confused boner
>>63695724That's not even Kreia.
KOTOR film could be pretty good actually
>>63695851Hasn't everyone known this for months by now? How are people still spoiled by it?

Fuck off /v/eddit.

Hello Reddit.

that boss fight fucking sucked
>>63691533
It is the reason though.
>>63690922
>>63699263
If you played or saw footage of SWTOR you know how fucking disappointing it is we got that shitty MMO instead of a proper game.

>Stop, Disney is not going to deleve into any EU or new canon for their movies.
But they sure as shit will rip it off.
>>63701433
There's a new guy called Kanan who's pretty much, as far as visuals go, a Katarn rip-off.
>>63701531
Kanan will die most likely. And no, I think Finn is the new Katarn. Disgusting.
Hopefully never. The characters are written poorly and the main story revolves around one of the worst cliches ever (the protag is the villain with amnesia).
