Is there anything everyone agrees on?

Post by Hill-Shatar »

I mean, looking around at all these forums, I see that no one has said anything that everyone else has agreed with. Look at all the forums, and other than the one about lightsaber colours, there has been a lot of aruing. (well, for the most part anyways).

I was wondering if there is anything that everyone agrees on, other than that there must be a KotOR III. :D

Theres not a lot that we all agree on is there? ;) Too many opinions that overlap with each others i guess... :D

I think it can be agreed upon that there should be a third game. There, how's that? :p

The majority of people, as far as I've noticed, seem to agree that Revan *should* be featured in the third game, but after that, the disagreements begin. Revan, as has been mentioned repeatedly, featured very prominently in the first game--after all, s/he was the main character--and was also featured in the second one. It wouldn't make sense to suddenly drop Revan off the face of the galaxy for the third one, so Revan will definitely be in the third one. Where the disagreements come in is *how* Revan should be in the game. Some people want to play as Revan again, some people would be content to have Revan the same way s/he was in KotOR II--not there but certainly a topic of interest (this would certainly be the way it would work if Revan does turn out to be dead, which I still think is possible, but we need not go into debates on this or that). And some people, although I can't think of any, don't want Revan at all. Frankly, the most-agreed upon solution is that Revan will return as an NPC, which would probably be the best solution overall. Some people want Revan to come back as a party member, although I have to say that having someone as powerful and important as Revan taking a backseat to someone else just isn't in the cards (although that would be extremely interesting and unpredictable if that does happen).

do we all agree with my link theory?
To save the galaxy, Revan would conquer it. To become the galaxy's greatest
hero, he would become its greatest villain.

Everyone has an imagination and no one will ever satisfy it all. It is human nature to not agree. Plus we will always try to better ourselves and think outside the box. There is not way one can agree all the time.

Well, I imagine we all agree that the third game needs to resolve the tensions left by the first 2 games. This means, among other things, to feature Reven and the Exile in some capacity in the story (there is disagreement about how exactly this should be accomplished - whether as story NPCs, character NPCs, playable characters, or simply as referred to entities).

Other than that, the only real issue of agreement is that we probably want the game to be finished and fully fleshed out this time, not rushed like the second game.

Everyone can agree that the highest level of Force Push kicks arse and will be included in the 3rd game. Go on. I dare you to tell me it didn't rock.

YAY! I come back from vacation and learn that there are things that people agree on. I admit, this greatly surprised me. :)

What's new?! You will find this place full of surprises.

I do still find the number of similarities are slim in people's opinion.
