KotOR III Storyline and Remarks

[Darth_Juro]

I really don't care about story line in that big of a detail, all I really care about and I'm sure most darksiders would agree with me is from the beginning of the game your able to chose what side you want to fight on, I mean seriously after the first two games your story line is the same good or evil, If I choose to be darkside I want a storyline and comrades that reflect that and vice versa for lightside. And also if you notice the loading screens from both games it will tell you that the "true" sith died out a millenia ago, and if I'm not mistaken it's mentioned that Revan went to fight the true threat not true sith...could be wrong but why would the loading screens and jedi history say true sith died out many many years before kotor series and the sith of now are not true sith but those who follow an ideal and yet Revan goes off to fight the true sith....which are suppose to be dead. I'm thinking of a really good story but as of now it's mainly focused for darkside, haven't thought of lightside yet because being good is just too boring ^_-

Perhaps you could start of as a child (like Fable) and see your town destroyed and parents murdered (like Fable). Then you are offered to join a jedi or sith academy, and grow up in the academy. At various points you have to do small jobs, and are constsntly meeting guys from rival academies who try to persuade you to join them. When you graduate you start the actual story, which is different (as is your party) depending on whehter you graduated from the light or dark sided academy.

There's been a few suggestions like this, about starting off young and growing older. It's an interesting idea, but I wonder how much it would mean putting off the "real" story... I've also seen a lot of complaints with KOTOR2 that the opening stages took too long to get through.
Though I suppose if you were a child, you could be young when the K1+2 stories are bing played out, thus informing new gamers of the backstory, and letting old gamers fill in their own.

Here's how I see it. The reason why Kotor is so fascinating, and eirgo successful, is because it delves entirely in the mythos from Dark Horse Comics and other fiction. I think that if they go back to the time of Exar Kun, or even better, back when the first sith were branching off from the Jedi, they'd have a solid release without extending Kotor 1 and 2's storyline.

With that said, there could easily be a direct sequel to kotor 2, Kreia talked about how there is a powerful sith force operating outside of know space, and that's where Revan went off to fight. The exile, if light sided, presumably went there as well, as it was one of the choices Kreia spoke about. There could be a third party, completing the neccessary amount of key jedi, to combat this huge sith force.

Or they could go many years into the future, much further from the events of kotor 1 and 2, but still many centuries before the events of the original star wars. Either way, I'm really stoked for this sequel, and I hope it comes out soon.

P.S
The game could also hypothetically take place during the new sith wars:
New Sith Wars - Wookieepedia, the Star Wars Wiki

Which would provide for an incredibly interesting storyline. Also, if it occured during this time, the people wishing for a connection to the anakin skywalker/clone wars era, this could be possible.

You no what a good story line would be?

A:you here a faint voice and then you wake up to see atton rand and the handmadien right beside you in the medical bay saying they found you unconcouis but you feel strange like you lost somthing and you lose the will to use the force. But! a full days rest you get back on your feet and you get a transmission i no your here im coming to find you and you do not reconize the voice but then you here a faint voice outside the ship you start to walk there and you go off the loading ramp to see a hooded man in bron robes takes off his hood and everyone behind you and mandalore then goes "no could it be? and starts to kneel and the man goes arrise mandalorien the you say "who are you" the man answers "it is I Revan once to be the dark lord! that would be a good begenning eh?

[DarthSpiden]

no that would be a horrible start to kotor 3 because it is like kotor 2 but instead of kreia it is revan not only that but revan is still in the unknown regions.

[Jedi Revan]

Here's my idea on how it starts.

A small lurch in a ship wakes you up and you fall off a small bed. You look around to see that you are inside a Sith Containment Cell with several other people in it. A man to your side says, "Hey, new recruit, you okay?" You tell him your answer and he responds, "Well you got knocked out once the first bomb hit the ground. It was so close to you I'm surprised you're even alive... my name is Jarard Elthin. You?" You answer and you talk to him about Revan's and the Exile's gender and alignment. He also explains how the True Sith attcked and captured all the planets but the Core planets in a week. A person in the corner asks to talk to you, saying that they've not been paying attention to many recent events, they ask you which of the wanted pictures on the wall out side the cell is Revan and the Exile. This is where you pick what they look like. The person as all of them hidden beneath a robe. The person suggests to break out of the cell, saying that there is little security on this prisoner ship. Together, you, Jarard, and the person break out. You take the weapons from the guards and then split up. You fight your way through the ship soon meeting up with Jarard again. You fight your way to the bridge where you find that the person has already secured it. He says that they already sent for reinforcements to come and resecure the ship. So the three of you head out and steal a captured shuttle. The Prisoner ship follows your's as you attempt to escape. The Prisoner ship's guns shoot your shuttle down into the middle of the battlefield on the planet Juxin 7. Jarard dies in the crash. You and the Stranger(the robed person) fight part of a few waves of enemies and then retreat back to the Republic lines. There you meet back with the squadron you were with before you were taken prisoner. There you fall back with the troops to Archanon 9's moon, Hailina. There (in the 24 hours estimated by the commanders that they have before attack), the stranger talks to the Republic general there. You are asked to do a few things to set up for the attack. You and the stranger then do an assortment of missions to prepare. When the battle commences, the general offers you and the Stranger a shuttle to Corusaunt as well as the aid of one of his best men, Darius Collins. You are forced to take the offer by the stranger and leave. On the shuttle, the Stranger reveal's that the person is Revan, gender(I'll refer to Revan as a he since it's the canon) and slight personallity difference (after regaining his memories his personality changed to become more neutral). He explains that you are like him, strong in the force, and that he feels that you could help many in this war by learning it (Revan's light side) or that you could use it to be a dominate power in this war (Revan's dark side). You accepted, gaining the class of Jedi Apprentice (at level 10, you can become a normal Jedi class). On Corusaunt, Revan explains his plan to the Republic Senate. He believes that if the Republic can capture 8 specific planets, they can create a extremely effective counter attack against them, forcing the True Sith out of the galaxy. The planets are Dantooine, Manaan, Archanon 9, Hoth, etc.. You, Revan and company are not offered a ship because a Republic sanctioned ship would be too easy to find and attack. You must get one on your own.

[DarthSpiden]

That is a good storyline, except I think the player's time would revolve around Revan and less time on the main character. But besides that, the storyline is good, yet I think you should be a different race like Yuuzhan Vong:Star Wars: Databank | Yuuzhan Vong

EDIT: I think you shouldalso start out as kid, but the beggining would be a little long.

[Darth Mason]

EDIT: I think you shouldalso start out as kid, but the beggining would be a little long.

I agree with the starting out as a kid, but it doesn't bother me that it would make the beginning long. If KotOR III is going to be the conclusion to the KotOR series then i want a realy long game so it can be a fitting conclusion to it. I don't know about KotOR I, but i usually finish KotOR II in about 24 hours - ish which, in RPG terms, isn't a great deal of time.

[DarthSpiden]

True I would like KOTOR 3 to be like as long as Morrowind or oblivion, with like a zillion side quests, just to improve your level and skill.

One way they can make it long like that is too make it so that it has like 10 planets, with several areas on each, each area as big or bigger than one planet area in the old games


And for my storyline idea, that would just be the beginning, by the end, it would revolve much more around you (Like Revan sacrifices himself at some point.)

[heaiiyasha]

I think that you should be able to go here
Planets:
*Tatooine
*Dantooine
*Kashyyyk
*Yavin IV
*Korriban

HK-47
T3
Atton
Mira
HandMaiden
bao dur


Plot you start off in the far regions on a mission from the jedi council looking for revan with bastilla atton carth and the handmaiden (all force sensitive) when you find out that revan has gone to the dark side again to the councils worst fears you fight revan midway through 1st time battling you get to choose to join revan or say never i wont join you stay loyal to the council etc. you go on and From there the story changes from that desission if you choose to join him you get him in your party replacing bastilla and teaches you how to master the dark side (getting some npc sith lackies to help out in your battles till you make the jedi crumble plus get mandalore to later find out he is canderous ) Choose the light side you take the ebon hawk back to the coucil and send you to stop revan finding some charachters like one of those mannan people(the fish aliens i think that would be cool to get) umm mission and zaalbar point is you gather some of your frends to help and then torwards the final battle the council decides to send some help get the republic soldiers and jedi apprantices

thats also a good plot i would be content with that

[DarthSpiden]

heaiiyasha it is against the rules to double post! and I think your story isnt so great because 1) bastilla and mira can not return because on darkside path, you killed them! 2) revan is in unknown regions and cannot be jedi master if he was bad!

EDIT: also bao-dur no matter if you are good or bad, is dead. he says it in the transmission on malachor V . somethin like if you are hearing this i am gone.
