Official KOTOR II Update

Sorry, no. It's still a mod and is not part of the update.

It's a clear endorsement of the mod though.

Mod or not it is director's cut...

It started out as a fan-made attempt to reconstruct official feveloper content which said developer wanted to patch in. Ten years later this progress with game files was picked up by Aspyr Media, whom works with EA and Bioware on republishing these games and even reworking the game files.

The restored content modification was worked on by a licensed Star Wars developer to bring to Steam Workshop and apparently will even include this content in their mobile version of the game.

This is an optional DLC from Aspyr Media available on Steam Workshop, this is not just a mod, it started out as such and has been been picked up for the game.

I'd say the content is canon so long as it doesn't contradict the original content. Just like the deleted scenes of the films in the old canon policy.

Sadly none of that has been said. Unless you have something more?

It's not canon, tbh. The cut-content shown in the diolague.txt files of the game are, however.

It directly states in the article they worked with the mod team and furthermore on Steam Workshop we see evidence of Aspyr Media working on it directly.

This is no different than Bioware's Mass Effect 3 Extended Cut DLC, it is just ten years late.

Worked with them. That doesn't mean they worked on it. And what evidence from the steam worshop are you taking about?

Aspyr Media made changes to the restored content, hence the earlier discussion.

Um. What? He is talking about some of the content that the mod provides. In this case, he is talking about how Kreia kills the Jedi masters in a different way. Not sure how you conclude that the company made changes to the of based on that...

It is a mix actually.

This is all a moot point though, Aspyr Media picked the cut content up and published it to Steam Workshop as an optional DLC with their official patch. It's an Aspyr Media development, that simple.

It's not an optional DLC; it's a mod made by fans.

It's a restoration of official game files by a mod team which Aspyr Media officially published on Steam Workshop.

You can disagree if you like but I am not following you.

This reminds me of all those "is Battle of Gods canon" debates for DB

Not quite the same issue, but just as annoying

For the millionth time, is this worth downloading?

Yep. It's a restoration of the game done based on the data in the Dialogue file. Therefore anything not in the dialogue file isn't "restored game" but a fanon mod. So the changes count on a case by case basis.

I'm glad you agree 👆

100%, the TSLRCM made the game one of my favourite games of all time.

It is a director cut I don't care, so it is canon, it was intended to be in the game. end of the story...
Director's cut>original in term of canonicity.
Even if it is a mod !!!

The patch of teh french version get a lot of translation error.

Look at all the website have.. and it is quite dating.. There is some official stuff...
They have translated an patched teh dialog years ago before that ToR was launched.
And this website consider this canon.. And hell yhea this website get a Game theory seal of approval, given by Mat Pat himselkf.

The mod mayby done by the fan but teh content is made by the KotOR II team bioware, obsidian. So the content is not fanon.. How could it be???
I'm sidding on Timpedia side.

Timpedia, Jensaarai, and MatPat have said that this stuff is canon... And even obsidian himself.
Get yoru self off a cliff if you cannot admit that this content is just canon !!!
