Did you know? Star Wars Knights of the Old republic has a quote unquote “official” way to beat it.
Pieced together from the strategy guide, official literature and even Revans later appearance in the Old Republic, which told us much about the canonical path the character once tread.
Not to mention during Revans Revelation cutscene, where Bastila will openly share the ideal order in which to visit each planet, retreading Revans steps as he & his wayward apprentice, obtained the Star Maps.
So, throw out that Dark Side run where you decided to take the life out of life day - mind tricking Zalbaar to take the breath out of Mission Vao …
As in today's video we will be exploring the ‘true’ path that Bioware intended the player to follow, and the reasoning behind some of those now iconic choices, that shaped the entire franchises story in Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic

T3 doesn't have a personality at all in K1. In universe it's because he's new and hasn't had time to develop self-awareness as droids do when going long periods without memory wipes. But I'm certain Bioware did actually forget about him as soon as he opened that door on Taris.

T3 is both a better character personality wise, and in gameplay. His shock arm alone is a universally useful weapon up until the end of the game, since it doesn't miss.

@reidlos8084 2 года назад

In reference to the planet order, there's more in game hints. If you speak to your companions regularly on Taris and Dantooine you will encounter the Twi'leks telling you Bastila's and Mission's family member is on that planet. So you go there first as you have nothing else telling you which order to go in. Then Grif gives you a mission to get a tach gland at Kashyyyk if you rescue him. After Kashyyyk, if you still have the note from the Genoharadan (assuming you took it as you have no reason not to your first play through) you would go to Manaan like it suggests. Then Korriban is last as it's the final planet and you also have no other side quests leading you there prematurely. Edit: correction there is Carth's. But iirc that's near the end.

They don’t make games like they used to. Even with clunky mechanics and poor movement, and the obvious age of the game, this game is a master piece. Characters felt alive, their voiced lines were acted and delivered perfectly. Kreia/Darth Treya is hands down my favourite character and mentor. They managed to explain the force in so much more detail than any of the movies in a way that didn’t leave any room for it to sound cheese.

Noticed today that if you’ve spoken to Mission about her brother after leaving Taris, Lena will be hanging about in the shop by the Dantooine landing pad. If you try and speak to her, it’ll say something like “This Twi’lekk woman seems to be looking for someone. Perhaps someone on your ship?” to try and prompt you into bringing Mission out to meet her and begin searching for her brother on Tatooine. More evidence that the game wants you to go there first.

honestly when a jedi/sith gets as powerful as Reven does it's really hard to classify them as one or the other, of course for game mechanics sake he has to be one, but in lore Reven was not content with limiting himself. He was a master duelist, and even created new force powers, and found balance in the force, the closest to true balance in a long time.

@SkintSNIPER262 Год назад

@@kyosilver1999 Revan is not "all powerful" as many make him out to be. He suffers from Boba Fett syndrome. Basically fans thought he looked cool and ascribed him as this most powerful badass. You power level doesn't mean Jedi and Sith are them same. You're reciting fan fiction. Revan being a Jedi was never "limited", and there is no balance between the light and dark. He redeemed himself in the light. Hence why he's called The Prodigal Knight. Again, your definition of "balance" is god awful fan fiction that contradicts the very basic foundational aspects of Star Wars.

I remember a comic where Revan was shown using a blue lightsaber when confronting Malak. Combine the fact that blue means Jedi Guardian and the game and it's the Jedi equivalent of the Soldier class and I think it's safe to assume he was a guardian. Though that order of planets is just the best way to go through it. Tatooine and Kashyyyk have to be first since they have two of your companions, and I always grab HK-47 first, and Korriban is best saved for last for the best extra dialogue and the fact that you can't use Bastila there in the first place.

@garrettsattem4799 Год назад

That lightsaber blade looked more cyan to me. Which could mean that he had the Mantle of the Force crystal installed. And since that changes crystal bonuses to go for more force-oriented play styles, one could argue that this would make revan a consular.

@tinselxd1309 Год назад

I'd say Consular during KOTOR but was originally Guardian purely because in all artwork and stories of the mandalorian wars Revan had a blue lightsaber during the war. Yes his force abilities was amazing but his combat prowess was renown. During time of KOTOR the colour of your saber was a symbol of your class, therefore Guardian. However the Revan book set after the game speaks of a Green saber, and there is artwork of a green saber for when he is on Dromunn Kaas, therefore my head logic is he was a Guardian and that's why he is Soldier at start, but when his force abilities resurge he focuses on them and his new guidance of Bastila, taking a more Consular approach. This also shows by his companions being more calm and peaceful wanting to help first and fight only as last resort whilst seeing the effects of war and violence, whereas before his fall Revan was friends with Mandalore the Ultimate (while he was a Jedi, before leaving and becoming Mandalore) with whom he often competed against in scenarios showing his combat and tactical prowess, then the war called and he answered... Clearly those who your surround yourself with can truly influence your actions

Sad stuff.) 3: I'm glad to hear there was no way to know what class Revan officially chose, because I went with Jedi Consular, since he is shown with a green lightsaber on the cover of the Revan novel. 4: Yes!

So, a couple more details to add to the "official" way to beat the game. The comic "Shadows and Light, Duron Qel-Droma has a vision of Revan donning the Qel-Droma robes and defeating Malak while wielding a lightsaber with the Mantle of the Force as its crystal (based on the blade's distinct cyan color). I just did a full "canon" playthrough of the game a couple days back as a fun challenge. I based Revan's stats and Force powers around his Knights of the Old Republic Campaign Guide stat block, completed the story as covered in this video (complete with nearly every side quest), and defeated Malak while wearing the Qel-Droma Robes and wielding a single standard lightsaber with the Mantle of the Force crystal. Pretty fun challenge, since I wasn't able to min-max the way I typically do. I wound up going Soldier 2/Consular 18. Though ultimately, my stats wound up being way higher than the Saga Edition Revan stats from the KotOR Campaign Guide, which I guess makes sense. KotOR Revan was more powerful by the end of the game than he had been as a Sith Lord.

@Mael_Str0M 2 года назад

It appears to me that you used “canon” way to beat the game, as you used sources published _after_ Kotor 1’s release (namely the New Essential Chronology, SWTOR, SWTOR Visual Dictionary). However, after doing some digging online and viewing the game’s concept art, I can determine that there is a more “BioWare-accurate” way to play. 1. Looking at the PC’s portrait, the clothing is that of the Scout starting class, regardless of which one you choose at the start of the game. This is further reinforced by the fact that when digging through the game’s concept art online, I found an official drawing of the “Soul Patch” portrait (with better hair holy shit) wearing the scout’s clothing and wielding dual-pistols, though there is also what appears to be a full-body shot of the Soldier starting class, most likely reference for clothing. 2. As with KotOR II: TSL, any modded content (with the exception of PartySwap) is considered non-canon, as is Kotor 1’s. There is actually a restoration mod for Kotor 1 that brings back numerous features, including Iriaz on Dantooine, Major Hurka on the Leviathan, Rulan Prolik’s shape-shifting abilities, and a Pazaak tournament on Manaan. While most of this content was taken out for a good reason, it still adds more content to the game. At the moment, that’s all I can think of.

@ragingoaktree Год назад

I may be wrong but in some sort of Star Wars literature I thought it said that redeemed Revan chose to be trained as a Jedi Consular which means that the canonical class was the Jedi Consular. I don’t remember where this was stated just that I thought I remember it being briefly stated in some sort of Star Wars book or guide

The way they intended us to beat it is surprisingly exactly the way I went about it without even knowing 😲.

After several playthroughs, that order makes the most perfect sense too.

@extraplain2412 2 года назад

I've done both endings but my favourite playthroughs were when I made every lightside decision up until the Rakatan world where I just embraced the darkside out of nowhere. I did the same with all the dark side choices too and then swapped to the light side at the last minute. It just always makes me laugh to think about how random the alliance shift must look to the rest of the party.

I definitely didn't do the star maps in order but I did do the cannon ending where Revan confessed his love for Bastila and saved the galaxy, I have yet to do a complete dark side playthrough but I will say it was fun committing heinous atrocities for and against the Republic in the Republics name.

@CanonGames Год назад

Canonically Revan had a blue lightsaber during this period, and this would mean he was a Jedi Guardian. However, at the end of the game, and before the novel, he switches it to Green, taking a more Consular path

@Metaphix 11 месяцев назад

Same with Luke, seems like as a jedi matures and learns more of not just combat but philosophy they change to green. Just me talking out my ass tho

@CanonGames 11 месяцев назад

@@Metaphix No bro I think you're right. At least for the best Jedi, like Luke and Revan. Always cool to see blue lightsaber wielder eventually make a Green one. Jaden Korr, from the Jedi Academy games had a purple one to begin with, but later constructed a green one too near the end of the game as he became a Jedi Knight.

I'm going to comment on every one of your videos in hope that you see this and maybe have an answer for me. I've done many play throughs of this game, some on original Xbox and some on PC. One time and really only one time after I beat the game the title screen had Revan standing at the main title screen rather than Malak. Is there some triggering factor that causes that? I appreciate any response. Thank you. By the way these videos are amazing.

@DarkLOREDash 2 года назад

Im going to assume you did it as a dark side run? I know KOTOR 2 updates the current dark lord dependent on who you're facing. And if you beat Kreia dark side, your Avatar stands in their place

@cphtfluke7565 Год назад

Other reasons to go to Tatooine first: it's possible, even probable, that you will get the side quests for Mission's brother and Bastilla's mother before you even leave Dantooine. And where are they? Tatooine. This leads us to the supporting reason to visit Kashyyk second, Griff needs Tak glands for his latest get rich quick scheme, and where do you find Taks? Kashyyk.

@therealest5188 2 года назад

Still til this day i dont know how i did it but in the orginal KOTOR there was a way to make bastila stay good on the island but never was able to do it again and this was on the orginal xbox version any idea?

@SirEpifire 3 месяца назад

I'm sure it's been called out before but one thing I always felt let down with (when playing the sequel), is I felt like my choices could actually benefit somebody in the first game. Whereas the Sith Lords is just such a sad, bitter turn. However, it also takes a great deal of agency away from the player's actions in an attempt to drive home that powerlessness and moral ambiguity. In the first game you're a powerhouse, whereas the second game just seems more concerned about being a mind f*ck. I hadn't played through kotor 1 in probably 15+ years and just finished a fresh playthrough last night. Seeing the ending here again in your video here, still leaves me with the impression that there was a much different plan for a sequel. Am I wrong to say I just really want more of the first game? I get enough grief and disappointment in the real world, so it's nice to save the galaxy once in a while. 😥

@zeroboolinme Месяц назад

Great video, anyone know if he made a canon story for KOTOR 2 video?

@JDStevens92 2 года назад

I usually do this order as it's excellent escalation in the plot, but I make a few tactical changes in order to access more content than would otherwise be available. I stop Manaan before using the Submarine, then do Korriban so I can meet Yurtha Ban on Dantooine, then collect the Star Map on Manaan to trigger the Leviathan. I also don't collect the Star Map on Kashyyykk (but complete everything else) deliberately so when I collect it after the Leviathan I get extra dialogue with the computer AI.

@midgetydeath 6 месяцев назад

"Sith Sorcerer and Jedi Guardian" So, max dex and high casting stats and Consular starting choice. Also, you can use light and dark powers regardless of Revan's alignment. It just cost more or less Force points.

@notofthisgod32 2 года назад

I've always gone Kashyyk first. I find it to be the easier path as far as who you face early on. But it's all about individual preference

@aaron75fy 2 года назад

the only problem with the planet order is Bastila get captured after 3 maps, as such if you haven't collected Korriban's or visited the planet first there's a discussion dialogue from Korriban with her you miss out. specifically the fact that she comes to a consensus that you shouldn't take her with you when trying to collect the piece

@extraplain2412 2 года назад

Just visit each of the planet's without collecting the star maps until you're ready. Sure it means travelling and having to do a few space battles but it's a good way of seeing how each character acts on each planet.

@zarddin9561 2 года назад

Ok so Revan is a Jedi Knight and "Sith Sorcerer" right? Going into KOTOR2 logic that would mean you should play as a Jedi Knight as Sith Sorcerer is just his Sith Lord class that he was before the events of the game. Kotor2 Jedi Guardian/Sith Lord is his class.

@DarkLOREDash 2 года назад

He pulls from both move sets. I haven't studied if there were more variations but you could well be right

@timonsolus 2 года назад

Perhaps Revan’s original Jedi class (as the Revanchist during the Mandalorian Wars) was a Consular? That would lead into ‘Sith Sorcerer’ as Darth Revan.

Something to note is that Revan's lightsaber color tends to differ, but i believe thst during the Mandalorian Wars, it was blue, and during his redemption, it was green and possibly later purple. This most likely means that before/during his fall, he was a Guardian, while he was a Consular after
