The Revan Obsession, I really don't get it...

I swear to God every other day some guy on youtube who plays this game or some comment in this forum or reddit is asking for Revan to be brought in the game.

I seriously don't get it. I mean Revan is cool but by no means cooler than some of the other Jedi and sith Lords of the old. Why do people have such a massive obsession with him? You never hear people ask for Bane, who is canon btw, or ask for Sion, or Traya or any of these guys, it's always Revan for some reason.

But regardless of this Revan madness who can people ask for a character that is simply out of place for this era that the game is based on?

Like when did Revan meet Han Solo or Anakin Skywalker? Why can't people understand that you can bring a guy from 3000 years prior to the events of this game. This game has nothing to do with the days of the old republic and the mandalorian wars.

I understand that adding darth Nihilus violates that but we all know that Nihilus had a purpose. First of all they had to give the sith, Maul meta a push and some diversity cause there were no options, hence why we also got assasin and trooper. And second it was a huge opportunity to make money.

Revan makes no sense to come to the game, he isn't even the most badass or strongest guy from the old republic. The only way I can see some of these old characters be implemented would be a massive expansion that expanded the era of the game and brought a bunch of these characters with it. But to individually hand pick Revan and bring him in the game makes no sense!
