Darth Revan/ Darth Nihilus....Who are they?

That'd be more ignorant yes, but when reading your poste, I don't find any evidence that you took in anything I said.

Mace and Obi-Wan are alike, but perhaps your simple a little star struck by the presence of two stars in the roles. I admit, that could be problematic for the analogy. Perhaps a better suited (since Mace's role could be considered much more than simply a stereotype, coming from Lucas' pen itself) analogy would be how are Kit Fitso and Obi-Wan Kenobi different?

On the issue of Nihilus you didn't seem to quite understand that he is simply a generic Sith Lord, but one, for the purposes of the game, the writers needed to be powerful. They took "Force Drain" from the first game, took it up a notch and gave their villain an excuse to be dangerous. As I said, every "hunger", every "belief" et cetera, are all derivitive of that main attempt of reinvention. It comes naturally.

You are definitely too cynical for this subject.

I'll take that as a compliment, regardless of any corrections you make 😉

The basic idea of Nihilus is copied from other Sith yes, but I still stand by my opinion on his original state of mind and way of thinking. Mace and Obi-Wan may have some similar ideas, like Jedi=good and Sith=bad but other things defy their personality, like how Obi-Wan is cool and collected, whereas Mace is a bit more hotheaded and arrogant.

Zayne Carrick doesn't become a great Sith Lord. He simply becomes Darth Nihilus. Can't you see where this is going yet?

So Nihilus is nothing then?

Nihilus is the SW embodiment of a worthless existence. His "goal" apparently is to achieve Life's destruction.

Kind of, actually.

Why say that?

Man, Kane just asks to be owned.

To say Nihilus is similar and unoriginal to all the Sith before him based on such shallow ideas as they are mysterious and wear black, doesn't make ny sense. That does no justice to the character development laid over the game.

Was the Emperor mysterious?

Yes. He was a scheming despot who plotted for decades overthrowing the Republic, establishing a brutal xenophobic empire and living forever.

Was Revan mysterious?

Yes. But Revan was a military tactician, a Jedi gone Sith only to be shown that he went to the dark side in an attempt to try and fortify the Republic for the invasion of the "Other Sith" in the Outer Rim.

So, by saying they're both just "mysterious" doesn't go into their characters whatsoever.

As for Nihilus, he is different than any other Sith Lord in his character.

He is not attempting to build an empire.

He is not trying to uphold the Sith traditions.

He is not trying to destroy the Jedi for the Sith.

He lives for himself, he thinks of only his hunger.

Fabulous palaces and worlds under his command was Palpatine's dream.

In fact, it's the motive for a lot of Sith.

But Nihilus wants to eat those worlds and the enitre Galaxy until there is absolutely nothing left.

He doesn't care about the difference between Jedi and Sith. He'll destroy them all. What Sith are like that?

He wants the entire Galaxy annihilated. What Sith wants that?

Yes, he's carrying a red lightsaber and is in black robes.

But if you look only at those things, you blatantly ignore the plot of every game, every book, every movie that builds up the separate Sith's personalities and character.
