By the way we need a full blade width shoto saber that also does the cool opening animation of Stronghold Defender sabers.

Or we could do this Galactic Battlegrounds style where the wookiees have an army with infantry, mounted cavalry, and tanks, an air force of their own, and an oceanic wet navy. As do the Rebels, Empire, Trade Federation, CIS, Galactic Republic, Royal Naboo, and Gungans.

Cythereal posted:Bioware's noted they didn't want to make Valkorion evil (or at least not completely evil) for story reasons. They said in an interview that in Star Wars, anyone labeled "Emperor" is automatically an evil monster and they wanted to play around with that idea some. Too bad for Bioware. They haven't learned that you can't change a characters basic personality and motivations in the middle of a story If they wanted a nuanced emperor, they should have given Valkorian's personality and role to Darth Marr and made him an ambiguously evil fascist. It's not like we ever see him do something Sithy.

Baron Porkface posted:Too bad for Bioware. They haven't learned that you can't change a characters basic personality and motivations in the middle of a story Yeah I really don't get the motives of Valkorion in the story so far. If he was a totally distinct character from the Sith Emperor, then I could totally buy the immortal benevolent dictator line they're following with him. But it's completely beyond me how his stated goal of "unite the galaxy under Zakuul and make it a better place" lines up with "also, I want to devour all living things in this galaxy". And I mean, he alludes to the idea that eating Ziost has given him a different perspective, but given that Ziost is the second planet he's eaten I find that hard to buy, especially so when apparently according to everyone on Ziost he was a good ruler for centuries. The only way I see the events of the story being credible are if either Valkorion was the embodiment of Vitiate's compassion and morality, cast out when Vitiate ate his first planet, and maybe they're somehow reunified after he ate Ziost, which while interesting was already done in the last expansion, pretty much, or, Valkorion is just a lying bastard pretending to be nice. The fact that they're not brushing Ziost under the carpet is good for whatever they're trying to do, in my opinion. They have to have an explanation that reconciles Valkorion with Ziost, and the fact that the player gets to bring Ziost up every time Valkorion tries to sound like he's working for the good of everyone is a positive sign. What troubles me is that there's seldom mention of the fact that the Emperor's long term plan was to devour all life in the galaxy and Ziost was only the beginning, allowing Valkorion to say stuff like "oh, but even Ziost was for the greater good". You can't eat your galaxy and have it too, and Valkorion simply states he wants to bring order, he doesn't make much effort to persuade you that he doesn't actually want to kill literally everyone in the galaxy anymore.

My guess is that the hint is in how Revan split into two distinct entities, a dark one with corporeal form and a light one that was only spirit. Guessing that for Empie it went the opposite way, a "light" sided corporeal form that was the eternal emperor and a "dark" sided spirit form that possessed others and ate worlds. Both parts of the whole with separate agenda. Or something like that...

My guess nowadays is Valkorion's a Voice, and was largely his own man for centuries while the Vitiate personality/entity was off doing its own thing. Senya notes that Valkorion grew cold and distant very suddenly, turning from the man she loved into someone else. I'm guessing that was Vitiate asserting himself over the Valkorion persona. Who knows whether headValk is Valk himself or Vitiate posing as Valk.

I would really like to play this game alone but since the patch i can't get passed the loading screen after the launcher. I've tried editing the confign to set fullscreen to false, deleted bitraider, ran the launcher fixer and done a clean install twice. Clicking around the forums results in all that and that's it. It worked before the patch and now nothing.  anyone have any ideas?

That's certainly the attitude I'm taking on my character, but if that's really the case he really ought to make more of an effort. Jumping inside your head is certainly a novel foot-in-the-door tactic for conning them, but when you've already sold a town one burning monorail, you need to work a little harder to sell a second.

For some of these plot speculations, watch the trailer again and notice how Valkorian smiles very subtly at the last moment as his back is turned to the twins. And if you've played through both KotFE as both Sith Warrior and Agent, he speaks dismissively of both Marr and Malgus to the warrior but names Jadus as the finest creation of the Sith Empire. Valkorion is not by any measure a "light side" entity.

Wait are people seriously acting like the emperor suddenly isn't evil because he's doing a Dr. Doom thing with Zakuul Reminder that if you accept his power twice he forces it on you the third time. He's absolutely 100% manipulating you as some sort of proxy against who he perceives as the true threat, Arcann, and he's probably gonna try to swipe your alliance from you at some point. Also the first thing we see him do in the expansion is murder a popular character. We are sincerely not supposed to like him unless you're playing an evil character.

Fojar38 posted:Wait are people seriously acting like the emperor suddenly isn't evil because he's doing a Dr. Doom thing with Zakuul Yeah, though I think you may be wrong that he sees Arcann as the true threat. I mean, the emperor can project himself into multiple people across the galaxy and control the minds of an entire planet. I think he does see something genuinely curious in your character and it is you, not the Eternal Empire that is the prize, but for what reasons (beyond ultimately taking you over), that is of course vague. Dude is straight up devious tho and lol if anyone has been like,"well I don't know he seems kind of nice!"

I don't know if it gets debunked past where I am, but I like playing with the idea that Valkorian isn't related to Vitiate at all and just likes messing with you. The hunting party really did just accidentally run into another Empire.

The hunting party really did just accidentally run into another Empire. He explicitly talks about Ziost in Chapter 2, something he'd have no idea about if he was really a seperate person. Not to mention, he name checks a bunch of Darths (Malgus, Marr, and Jaden). All in all, I'm interested to see what exactly his game is. His entire plan doesn't seem to make a lot of sense, atm. Why go through all the trouble of trying to posses him/her when even on Ziost the best the PC could do was slow him down a matter of minutes? Not to mention his totally schizoid natures on Zakuul and among the Sith. He's up to something, but my current guess is that there's something more complex to his plan than to just take the PC over, because it seems like a lot of effort for not a lot of reward on his part.

Actual question re: the emperor's motivations since I can't remember and also haven't seen all the class stories: Do we ever hear straight from the horse's mouth that his goal was to kill everyone and not just lots of people, or is that just what we heard from his weird glassy-eyed cultists in the Jedi Knight storyline et al? Maybe his plan was to wipe out the Sith Empire and the Republic while simultaneously developing the perfect society that would replace them and inherit the ashes on Zakuul? But I don't remember Ziost very well, so maybe he's just literally all like, yeah, I'm going to kill everyone ever. Anyway, we probably shouldn't Valkorion, but I sure am enjoying trusting him anyway on my trooper. My main Sith Warrior is still maintaining her strict gently caress the emperor policy.

I think the one who states that the Emperor is planning to eat all life in the Galaxy is Lord Scourge. The Jedi can even mention that would leave no one left to rule over and Scourge just points out there are other galaxies. Vitiate never really denies it in the JK quest. I think Revan also references that Vitiate wants to kill everyone, and he was in touch with Vitate's psyche for centuries.

When his ex talks about him becoming cold and distant, I was thinking that was his mind being busy light-years away playing his centuries-long game of Sim Galaxy because his utopia was boring. Like everything we've witnessed so far was a side project and he didn't give much of a poo poo about it. Ruling the Dark Council was what he did to relax after work. Eat a planet, don't eat a planet, whatever, he's just pushing buttons to see what happens. And when he was "silent" in the old Sith Empire that's when he was paying attention to his family.

The Jedi can even mention that would leave no one left to rule over and Scourge just points out there are other galaxies. Vitiate never really denies it in the JK quest. I think ultimately wiping out everything in the galaxy and moving on would be some sort of end game for Vitiate, though that's not really in the cards like tomorrow. It took him 1000 years to even get the ball rolling on putting feelers out on the Republic, and another 300 before invading. Why he needed to zap Ziost, let alone what that actually "did" for him is really vague (since he ends up just getting his human body murked like shortly after, which seemed to be a concern when he first faced off with Revan but no biggie now) but I do think he's kind of a malicious and bored entity. Your character is a real bizarre oddity to him, and he wants you to be added to his collection (perhaps his plans were for one of his children to be a new host to replace "Valkarion" but now he's found you and you're much more interesting?) Its kind of like with Senya, she's just another guard until she kind of has this moment and Valk's reaction is just like "ha ha, well, how interesting." And she lines up with his plans at the time as well but he also really doesn't care about anyone really so when she's no longer interesting he just kind of drops her. I think this comes through when sometimes you can be just talking and say something off the cuff in KotFE and you'll get a little ambient pop up that Valkarion finds this amusing. He's got this big plan to eventually consume all life in the galaxy but its going to take thousands of years and in the meantime he's basically just watching this ant farm he has set up and is amused whenever someone does or is something he truly didn't predict. This curiosity isn't infinite though. Now someone explain to me how the star cabal fits into all this.
