Star Wars: The Old Republic: Knights of the Fallen Empire

It's not that Vette has no lines in the expansion, it's that she isn't a companion, canonically, that the Outlander brings around and fights with all the time. Some of these on the terminal list still have lines in the game, you know.

Well that's not confirmed, though.... Is it?

No lines in the expansion would make sense if she's not actually meant to be in the expansion. But I kinda get how they could do it

Nvm:

"Some come in after chapter 9, a couple have lines in chapter 1 but the vast majority do not. Out of what's in there now that would be a no to your second question.
Several companions that aren't present in Season 1 are referenced though.. you will probably have to wait until Season 2 (maybe late 2016) to find out the fate of all of your companions."

I can see why it's the way it is. Too many branches and variations to deal with in any way that would be satisfying. The omission of Scourge is kind of retarded for say, Rusk, is kind of retarded, but I can deal.

The terminal companions seem to be the romance companions plus Bowdaar, Scourge and Tanno. No idea why those 3 but ok whatever.

I guess the romance ones are cuz waifu lovers would scream if they weren't available. But no idea why they couldn't be story related.

Edit: Maybe they're only optional because they don't want people going "why is Kira here instead of banging my Knight!" >:[

Dumb for Scourge to just peace out of everything though.

People are stupid, but that's really not that big a deal when all the other possible Outlanders should just be dead anyway...

OH **** SCOURGE IS GONE.

Nah. You'll still have companion interaction.

I'm getting it now, I remember bioware saying all the Vanilla romances continue, as long as you didn't cheat on them and stuff. It makes sense, since they can't obviously can't fit every companion into the storyline until you've gone through them all accepting them/rejecting them....

This is about whether they are companions or not "canonically," and as of now, Scourge canonically is not a companion in KotFE. None of the others are either. At best they might show up somewhere in the expansion, but they're storylines are done. They aren't continuing and they are no longer even remotely relevant to the plot of KotFE. The companions that need accepting or rejecting seem to be those like T3, not Scourge.

Again, you don't know that. The likelihood is, (and apparently it looks like it to the Dataminers) these companions simply come in after chapter nine...

There's no way that literally all the other companions are somehow relevant to the story of KotFE, especially when it's over halfway finished. Them showing up after Chapter 9, which I already said was possible on the last page and in the post you're responding to, doesn't really change that as far as plot goes, they are no longer relevant. That's not cynicism, it's common sense that with a budget, certain things just aren't possible, and making everyone that the PCs can bang relevant is one of those things.

"This is just to quell some of the non-sensical speculation by people that romanceable companions are completely non-canon, or somehow removed from the game. These are companions that will appear in the story chapters we'll get after launch, Chapters 10-16:

Aric Jorgan
Gault Rennow
Kaliyo Djannis
Torian Cadera
Vette"

Yay. More people I don't care about. And god am I so tired of Mission and her multiple reincarnations.

..... Vette is ****ing amazing.

So much better than mission wtf

God, she's just like Mission in literally every way. "I don't understand what these feelings mean."
"I don't like it when you talk to other people, but I don't know why."
General childish behavior.
Far too much naivety.
Her background occupation.
Give this woman a wookie sidekick already, and she'd be the real deal.

Her VA is icing on the cake, but I won't hold that against her. I don't like the voice, but it's hardly the biggest complaint I have about her.

Lol @ thinking Vette is the same as Mission, just because she's a blue Twilek. Not only are you a douchebag, you are also a ****ing racist. I knew that you were an ugly lowlife ****ing scumbag with no scruples or self esteem and were basically worthless on every conceivable level, but somehow I'm still disappointing in you.

Vette isn't childish or naive. She quips a bit, but she's way more mature than Mission and is actually kind of world-weary and hesitant from being a slave.

Even in jest, which at this point I wouldn't be surprised if it wasn't, this might be literally the most retarded thing I have ever seen from anyone on the internet ever, so congratulations on that, I guess.

Well besides the fact that she thinks my super racially superior Wrath would think she's person, that she doesn't understand her own emotions on the most basic of levels, the fact that she's Lawful Stupid in all but the most trying of circumstances, that she thinks being super annoying even to the people torturing her, and responds to everything like it's a game, I'll respectfully disagree. Plenty of people like Vette for her weird mixture of innocence, petty crime, and existing. I'm just not one of those people.

It's a reference. 😉

None of that's really like Mission though? Mission didn't treat everything like a game, she doesn't misunderstand her emotions and she's not lawful stupid. Mission spends most of the game afraid for Zaalbar, bummed over Taris and mad and depressed over her brother.

I'm scratching my head on that one.

I remember Mission being pretty childish on Taris, pretty understandable given that she is actually a child. Her misunderstanding of her own jealousy towards being ignored by her brother. [s]Naive enough to not think I would make her best friend kill her.[/s] Vette's definitely more fleshed out, but that's true of most people in TOR. She may not be Lawful Stupid, but she wasn't really given the opportunity to be either.

Apparently Vaylin is immensely powerful and destroyed the Sun Generator.

And even then, Arcann is hyped to be way more powerful than even Vaylin.

EDIT: They say Arcann assassinated
