Ok. And what's your problem with him?

BTW, Star Wars Celebration confirmed that SWTOR and its expansions aren't canon. 👆

No one said they were canon in the first place. 😬 Can I have a link though?

No — BioWare “has created their own universe that is so fantastic,” we’re not going to change it, says Hidalgo.

Fascinating - that's what I thought. Not legends, not canon. Something unique. Cool!

He's kind of a dick and he gets really touchy over some stuff. But I don't have a serious problem against him tbh.

You said they were canon or quasi-canon or somesuch. I just wanted to shoot that down. A bit of schadenfreude tbh. excellent

That was kind of common knowledge you know when they retconned the EU?

Derp.

I said they were between Canon and Legends - which they are now confirmed they are. Thanks!

It's confirmed they're not canon, that's all. 👆

"Their own universe."

Yeah, their own storylines, characters, settings... doesn't mean it's under its own umbrella.

Being their independent universe means it's under its own umbrella.
Though, it doesn't really matter. We both interpret a vague line differently.

"Revan returns and travels to a very iconic Yavin IV to go to battle and release the actual Emperor, one we thought who was defeated not long ago. The player is pulled into this struggle of two of the most powerful Force users, like ever, in the history of the Old Republic, if not beyond - Revan and the Emperor."

Concession accepted, Nephbae. Note that by Old Republic, he means the era itself. Like, he says Naga Sadow as a character from the Old Republic and the like.

Holy crap that's awesome.

Very interesting, though I think we already knew that just by feats.

The Hero really has gone down, tbh.

Anyone who MMOs could have predicted this. Revan is the big hero we piddling raiders assist in order to beat the big bad. Which I'm absolutely fine with, despite the fact that it makes the HoT an order of magnitude weaker than I once suspected.

I doubt they have this big Revan/Vitiate operation any time soon though. It'll come out when Bioware begins fearing that EA might pull the plug.

I don't think the HoT has gone down tbh. Just that Revan has gone up. Vitiate still says the Hero is 'immensely powerful'. That is a huge accolade coming from one of the most powerful Sith in the mythos. And he did defeat him. Even though he was weakened, defeating someone as massively powerful as Vitiate is better than most Jedi have to their name.

By that logic, Revan is basically on Vitiate's level, and we all know that's not true.

Not really, unless you considered Revan to be significantly more powerful than HoT even before 3.0 was released. I didn't.
