Characters from KOTOR 1 & 2

And the main cast of kotor 2 isn't even in the game let alone all the side characters that would be great the OR/SE factions would be as large or close to the current GR faction

So I am finally getting to plar KOTOR on my brothers X-Box and I'm wondering. We have the main playable heros plus Darth Revan and Malak, but, why don't you take advantage of all the other NPC heros in the game like Yuthura Ban, Vrook Lamar, Uthar Wynn, Trask Ulgo, Saul Karath, Davik Kang, Darth Bandon, Calo Nord, Bendak Starkiller, Aric Jorgan Ajunta Pall, Dorak, Zhar Lestin, Aleco Stusea, Qual, Bala Nisi, Vandar Tokare and Exar Kun and I haven't even started KOTOR 2 yet, but, I'm sure there are NPC's in there we can get. And before anyone really tries to say, well, they are not really canon, how about Darth Plagius the Wise that Sidious talks about in Episode 3, we don't have him and he is canon.

...Because we don't need that sort of flood of additional characters like that. And I say that as a fan of KOTOR. Also, you are really stretching the definition of 'KOTOR', including characters that originated elsewhere. Exar Kun was mentioned in the game but he really doesn't count and Ajunta Pall is a somewhat lesser stretch, more involved but introduced and focused in earlier material.

They may revisit KOTOR 1&2 in future. Should be around Q3/Q4 where this can happen. They talked about it in a Q&A a time ago. I think it was the december one and they said "No KOTOR content planned for the next 7 months :)".
I would love to get more KOTOR 2 stuff and building up towards SW:ToR stuff aswell.

1. That's a lot of syllables that mean nothing to many people.

2. Game balance - you can't release too many characters quickly, we've just had GLs and soon Mando stuff.

2b. Game balance - more toons with tags from that era could be game breaking OR could make the new toons less worthwhile in an effort to avoid this.

4. They said so. See Akenno's comment.

Not trying to veto the idea, just speculating on why they may not be deceloped.

Well, seeing as the videos I've been watching on Youtube, talking about the average or F2P players will probably never even get a GL Rey or Kylo Ren, makes me sick. I know they are in the business to make money, but, they don't have to make it where only people with money or whales can get the good heros.

Good heroes... You can get DRevan, Padme, GenSkywalker for free. But it take longer to farm instead of buying the shards.

And your idea doesn't really change that. Any character at the Revan tier will be targeted towards those who spend. Though it is hard to imagine most of your suggestions being on that tier. MAYBE Exar Kun and/or Ajunta Pall. The rest would at best be at the level of the non-Revan KOTOR characters we already have. Possibly a strong boost to specific teams, but not close to the Revans when they were released or even now.

That statement is wildly misleading and on a whole short sighted and inaccurate.

That statement is only using the current state of things, which will change.

- we will see more income of materials as time goes on.
- there are average and F2P players that have been here since day 1 or the first 6 months, or 1st year.... and there are some that just started last week. putting them all together in that statement makes it misleading and incorrect for some portion of those players.
- this game is not and has never been P2W, nothing is catered only to people with money or whales. The first release is always quicker and easier to get with $$, that is the point, but everything becomes easier to get as time goes on. Everything just takes time and focus.

Kyno, will you tell the devs that I haven’t spent any money in awhile, but if They implement more KOTOR 2 characters I will cash out my savings and take out a second mortgage.

Please, please, please no. For the love of goodness and light, no. I sat through pretty much a year of someone named Revan that I couldn't give to shits about being the number one team in this damn game and I'm tired of it. I'd rather see Kylos and Reys that I probably can't beat for miles and miles than look at another character from 2 games that were made 20 years ago that I and a lot of other people didn't play
