Maul vs. Bastila

Started by Fishy12 pages

The Exile should be lightside really... However, Revan what side he follows is unknown. There has simply not been an official statement, until now every game ended in Light. But saying Revan was light limits the ability's they have for the next game so its a stupid thing to say for the one's that are allowed to say it.

And Bastila never once in her life stalemated Revan.

She was weaker then guys that followed Malak, who Revan beat. She would simply never have had the power to Stalemate Revan... If that fight would have been for real she would have been dead. Fast.

Don't ignore Wikipedia has a direct link to the official source on the matter. The accepted and canonical version of Revanis lightside. Leland himself confirmed it. And wiki gets too much flack. Generally it reports quite factually and articles that violate truthfulness are cleaned up

hmmm Bastila isnt that easy, if ur playing as scoundril it would be hard... But this just tell us that revan sucks...
well maul is much more skilled than bastilla and maul would win!

Kaithen please read my post... Lightsnake I still haven't seen a real official source not even in the Wiki article..

Dude, I've posted the thing about three times!

http://starwars.wikicities.com/wiki/Revan

I see no link there that shows he is lightside. In the lightside ending their argument is "This follows the usual practice of LucasArts, where the canonical storyline of all videogames ends in victory for the light. "

A lot of other things claimed there are also likely rumours. Not confirmed yet. Thats the problem with Wiki it far to often shows things as facts when they are rumours likely as they are. There is no link to anybody of Lucas Arts saying Revan is lightside, no link to anything from BioWare or Obsidian no link to any official statement, and as long as that isn't there then there really isn't an official ending. Just one that would likely be official.

Alright....for the fourth time...

Leland Chee's own Q and A

Yup.

Star Forge Entry

LS ending is canon. Revan was redeemed.

Copy the post becaues I can't find it... Seriously I see no official statement on Revan being light anywhere on that page.

Thank God Revan was redeemed, otherwise the whole Galaxy would be turned into a neverending orgy of violence and Tarisian Ale!

Ach...I'll be in my trailer

Fishy, check the bottom paragraph under the entry of the Star Forge- it says the Republic won the battle at the Star Forge. This is a clear indicator that the lightside ending is canon. This is further hinted at by KOTOR II, in which Vandar is killed on Katarr.

And in other times they refer to Revan as Darth Revan even when you choice lightside. Also you hear nothing about Juhani, Jolee, Mission and Zaalbar. Three of which are confirmed death if Revan is Dark Side and one of which who is very likely death.

Malak tortured Bastila, corrupting her will and turning her to the dark side of the Force. The next time Revan encountered Bastila, she was a dark warrior filled with rage. Bastila urged Revan to turn to the dark side, and the decision made by Revan ultimately sealed the fate of Bastila, the Star Forge, and Darth Malak's scourge.

The most important part also says nothing. The databank is inconclusive when it comes to this subject... As to many others.

That piece is inconclusive, but other sources on the same website give clear confirmation of the canon ending: LS.

That Bastila one is just a dramatic ending to the paragraph.

Indeed, that paragraph neither proves nor disproves the LS ending, while another piece of equally considerable evidence supports it. LS it is, though it's odd that the comic shows Revan in full gear standing over a downed Malak. The blue wash over the artwork prevents us from determining if that's a red saber or not.

Yes but the dark side gear on the other hand confirms that it is Dark Side... As thats the only way he could have gotten those robes.

Kinda like the Wiki picture of Revan, in full gear, on Taris. Where da hell that come from anyway?

Not neccessarily. From the looks of it, they could be Star Forge robes, and the mask could just be artistic license to avoid showing Revan's face.

It's a picture. In this case it's been dispersed as artistry, seeing as how the the portrait of the Revan is optionable, they had to settle on his recognizable symbol...his robes.

Could be and could not be.. Do you have a pic from that comic, so I could see?

Anyways the evidence is inconclusive at best, you know as well as I do that the Databank isn't the most reliable or accurate source on the matter. And there has been no real official statement. Yes, it is more likely that Revan is Light Side but there is nothing that would really confirm it.

Too many sources state the canon LS ending. Even if LucasArts hasn't released the truth, (which I think they did) the number of Sites saying LS wins out, outnumber the DS ones.

In this case, since we can only go by these statistics, LS is canon.
