KOTOR III Main Theme

You know what really makes stories so great that you want to stand up and applaud the creator of such a story. Sure, the characters are good, the dramas good, but what has always found its way into my heart is how a story never changes its theme.

For instance.

Kotor I= Star Forge, Jedi Civil War, and memories.

Kotor II= Mandalorian War, force wounds, Sith Lords, Malachor V.

So what about Kotor III, my opinion.

Kotor III=True Sith, Revans Past, the gray philosophy, and the Unknown Regions.

Questions for KOTOR Series

I. How did Revan get such a large fleet.

II. How did Revan change so many Jedi to the Darkside.

III. Why did Revan Joing the Darkside.

Two questions answered, one remains and should be explained in KOTOR III

True, I think KotOR 3 "will be about the past" (the two othergames) and the "future of the whole galaxy", Revan, the Unknown Regions and the "true Sith" which I don't even think will be the Sith.

Interesting question. I would add to this: in KOTOR I, there was a definite divide between light and dark side - but this underlying question of whether what the Jedi Order had done (both to Revan, and in not fighting the Mandalorians) was "good" or "bad".

In KOTOR II, Kreia's teaching seemed to involve a lot of blurring the boundaries between light and dark.

So I tihnk the whole "grey philosophy" might come in to III. I think whatever the True Sith are, they're appearance will involve some kind of overriding of the light/dark divide - perhaps you'll need the presence of both light and dark side companions in order to successfully defeat them. Or something.

I agree with bigredpanda regarding the 'grey' philosophy. This is one way to show the human side of the conflict, like the Jedis aren't really that good and the Siths are not really that bad as what most Star Wars titles portray them. After all, not everyone is perfect.

I would also like one of the themes of KOTOR III to show the realities of war and the effects of the ongoing conflict between the Jedis and the Sith. A good example is portraying the feelings and views of individuals from both camps regarding the conflict and the civilians as well. This may give a human feel of the conflict.

A bit like the refugees dotted around KOTORII, Nar Shadaa in particular. Yes, the games have been good so far with presenting problems as complex and non-straightforward, not just "bad guy! blam!" etc. In fact, I think that's one of the things I really enjoy about the KOTOR series above many other games.

i wudnt mind seeing more in flight battles or like actual galaxy battles like in Battlefront but the grey phliophpy has to be a must because there some many different ways of looking at force like in epsiode 3 movie when the sith lord(i cant remember his name) and ankin aka vader had the discussion bout wat is realli is gud or wat is realli evil. the next game shoule have more optional characters no just if ur male or female or sith or jedi and there maby another jedi class

Now we got off topic, it's not about stuff that we want in the next sequel it's about what you think will be the next themes.

Well, the grey philosophy implemented back in KOTOR 2 was meant to show that Jedis aren't that good and the Siths are not as bad as what was portrayed in most Star Wars games and movies. In a way, it shows that not everyone is perfect and they have faults just like you and me. In addition, it will give a human feel to the game and not some perfectly good and perfectly bad group almost portrayed in any RPG out there.

I think there will be a lot about the Old Sith ways and the Old Jedi ways, before the Hyperspace Wars and the whole mishap on Korriban.
This will probably make it understandable for the Exile and Reven to be rendered with minute Force abilities, maybe a change in their ecosystem, or what had happened pre-KOTORIII, or maybe the ability to rob people of their force ability is comman and happens to the two.

Living Force

Maybe instead of having "neutral" you will have the living force

Living force is what Qui-Gon JIn taught and was all about. Proponents of the Living Force view, such as Qui-Gon Jinn, espoused a philosophy of "living in the moment," relied heavily on their instincts and concentrated more on sensitivity to living things, rather than fulfilling destiny, as was what the Unifying Force was about. Had the Jedi Order adopted this stance, it might have allowed them to prevent the war that gave rise to the Galactic Empire, as many its members lost themselves in looking toward the future rather than observing the occurrences unraveling in front of them.

Not sure this is a theme or a plot

K3 should be about what Revan was doing in the outer rim and the True Sith. I think Revan was collecting an army or an object that could help in the fight against the True Sith. So instead of collecting star maps or Jedi masters, the main character can be collecting whatever Revan was collecting.
