The Revan story.
I’m happy they’ve announced Darth Revan. However... The story in hand? Does not make sense. I’ve been reading the Revan Time line came across interesting points and mentions of the characters. ...

The jedi knight Revan we have in game was said by the devs to be the light side end game version. He has the star forge robes that you get if your alignment is light. We will be getting the dark side end game version that reclaims his mantle as Dark Lord of the Sith (also said by the devs) with Darth Revans robes that you get on the star forge on a dark side playthrough. The way they set this event up maked perfect sense.
As mentioned above, Carth and Juhani do not join you on a DS playthrough for the tail end, but we didn't have stages on Manaan or Kashyyk in the first event. They could be needed on those stages. As far as I can tell, these swgoh events are based around the video game knights of the old republic, and that's it. Not novels or other sources of no-longer-canon-canon. I think they've done an awesome job by giving us both end game character versions that you could have chosen.
I think it's awesome that you went back and studied the lore a bit. It's a great story. It's a bit hard to swallow the old graphics and clunky controls at first, but the first KotOR really stands the test of time. I downloaded it through steam and played through a couple times around the time JKR was announced. It's worth a playthrough. I understand how annoying it must be for people who have no idea who Revan is to be told to spend 40 hours on a 15 year old video game just to understand the hype, but I promise it wouldn't be the worst $5 you've ever spent.
