*Dark Bastila is HOT* - Who wants to see 10 minutes of Useless Information about other Star Wars stories? Let me know below! Also, come follow me on twitter thx
+1 for the childhood crush
More of this please!
You better make that 10 minute video, and you better somehow make it 10 minutes long... XD
Annoying/flirting with Bastila is nearly the best part of the game.
You know, I doubt that you spoke with Kathleen Kennedy, but if you did, tell her to sell the Franchise back to Lucas or Dave Filoni.
When you speak about Knights of the Old Republic, nothing useless.
All these revan fanboys be ignoring that Exar can kick his ass
You keep showing up XD you have my name!!!
I agree
Exactly
Sooo, title of the next video - *10 Minutes of REALLY USEFUL Information about Knights of The Old Republic 2?*
There's a chance Malak fell to the dark side as a result of being pissed because everybody mispronounced his name
I mean, I would. So high... very high.
Darth malaka
@@100StarWars because Revan trolled him so much he made HK-47 call everyone meatbag to piss him off
It was probably Vrook who struggled to say his name.
Malek
I wish they would actually make a good movie about the KOTOR…doesn’t necessarily mean just Revan, but I love the lore of this era..
Ps
Dark Bastilla is hot
At least we’re getting the animated fan series. I mean the progress videos look amazing
There are also KOTOR Machinima's there basically movie's.
@@Kyle-qd2sy animated fan series? are there any links to this?
@@Kyle-qd2sy wait what!??????
@@dylanbell268 look up Unreal Cinema. He announced the project a couple months ago. He’s got approval from Disney and honestly the progress videos look amazing
Revan’s true birth name was indeed never revealed anywhere in Star Wars lore.
This reminds me of the Spartacus TV series. Spartacus says, in several episodes, “That is not my name.” but is told by both friends and enemies that his original name doesn’t matter, to anyone, Spartacus is the only name that he will ever be known as or remembered by. And his real name is never revealed to the viewer.
“Revan… that is not my name.”
that is different though, as Revan could be either male or female depending on player choice, having a good name that would fit both genders might be hard, its also why in later installments Revan always wears a mask. Spartacus on the other hand is based of a historical character which his true name has been lost to history, we simply don't know his real name, if we did, it would have been in the series/movies/etc.
@@papab34r : I bet Revan’s real, original name was something terrible like Nigel (Nigella), or Norbert (Nora).
That would make it very understandable that he/she preferred to be known as ‘The Revanchist Leader’, ‘The Revanchist’, ‘Darth Revan’, and finally just ‘Revan’. Anything but that horrible birth name! 😆
He is Alpharius LOL.
@@timonsolus I was actually thinking it's not something horrible, it's just something plain and ordinary and boring, like Bob or Bill or something. He changed it after he fights his first group of Mandalorian warriors and they all laugh when he tells them his name. Afterwards, he and Alek (Malak) have a little sit-down and Malak is like "Boss, we really need to come up with a better name for you, nobody is going to be inspired by or afraid of the"great Jedi Knight Bob!"
Bonus Useless Fact: After Darth Bandon was killed by Revan, his body was retrieved by Sith loyalists who preserved his head through alchemy to where they attempted to communicate with his spirit and form a short lived cult around him. It was used as somewhat of an antiquity throughout the centuries until eventually being displayed in an Alderaanian Museum in the years leading up the war between the Republic and Vitiate's Empire...
I'm not fucking kidding.
He's/She's not kidding. Wookieepedia confirms it.
That was for the SWTOR video :((
@@100StarWars Aww Fuck! What an unintentional spoilsport I've become!
@@GlitzBog that's it, no follow up video
@@100StarWars one bad apple...
Any information about KOTOR isn't useless.
But you are
@@TruetoCaesar Hey, don't mock the... SCP-001 proposal?
Amen
from a certain point of view.
@@TruetoCaesar yo no need to be rude
There is still something truly huge about Trask Ulgo. He's from House Ulgo, an Alderaanian royal family that was well known for its discipline, duty, and military service. However, House Ulgo basically started a massive civil war on Alderaan and got destroyed.
The Bounty Hunter story even has you hunt down Darth Bandon's head! It's GREAT!! It took me admittedly too long to get it, until the Ulgo house member talked about his ancestor who was killed by Darth Bandon on a Republic cruiser and I was like "Hey wait"
@@dwell7315 I think it's actually the Smuggler story that does that. I was playing it yesterday, and it was an Alde house member who talked about it. Or, did the Bounty Hunter get involved with this stuff as well?
@@theevildrummingsithlord1492 honestly I wasn't sure if it was BH, Smuggler, or SW sorry. But now that you say that, yes it's the Smuggler, that's one of Risha's objectives for you right?
@@dwell7315 Hey, no worries. And, yep, it was one of her objectives!
What is funny is that on the backstory of the assassin Selven on KotOR Taris, Ulgo and Organa are talked about as though they were tarisian noble houses. Not alderaanian, tarisian. Huge oversight
One mans useless information is another’s “Subscribe”.
Now this... does put a smile on my face.
Back in 2005, me and my brother played both games at the same time, switching from one to the other when we got stumped on a level; it made the Revan revelation that much more awesome.
Same
"isn't that what they did with Kotor 2 only using an old lady I stead of a frog? Huh" HAHAHAHAHA
At Least We Got Master Vandar , THe Brown Frog
I would love to see an evil Yoda someday
@@nathanielweller25 who wouldn't want an evil Yoda????
Canderous was so badass, the Yuuzhan Vong had to postpone their invasion for 4000 years out of fear
Maybe they thought that all the inhabitants of the Star Wars Galaxy were like mandalorian warriors
*Fuck this shit, I'm out*
Aha! Jokes on you since I found this information very useful (despite knowing most of it already) So.. time well spent!
Adding the full name on screen didn't help though since I still couldn't pronounce it properly.
The Evil Sith Lord Darth Squint
Just say it really, really fast over and over and you'll eventually be a master at saying it.
I see those Unreal Cinema clips. I love how they are spread around and used to showcase the glory of the series!
I'm looking forward to it very much!
1:50 So that’s why the files for T3-M4 show up as T3-M3!!!
10:23 Absolute Facts!!!
I wonder why they changed it.
@@100StarWars Hard to say. Perhaps with R2-D2, they didn’t want it to look like they just changed the letters and moved the numbers up by 1.
Vandar shows up in the files as Yoda as well lmao
@@GayFishYe isnt Vandar a memeber of the Yoda species? If so then it would make sense for Vandar to be called that
They did find the promise land. But died slowly for 300 years.
Only a handful of generations, if I remember correctly
@@moscanaveia yep that is correct i watched all the holorecordings on Taris and they almost made it to the Republic rediscovering the planet which is even sadder
Malak: "And in the end, as darkness takes me...I am nothing" *Dies*
Revan: "No. I the end, you were our "Squint", best buddy" *Close Malak's dead eyes while crying*
XD
lmao, i want a mod of this XD
Savior. Conqueror. Hero. Villain.
You are all these things Revan, and in the end, you are nothing. You belong neither to the Light or the Dark.
Favorite dialogue from the game
and revan echos those words when he “dies” as George Lucas would say it’s like poetry it rhymes
@@100StarWars Let's hope it's included in the HD Remake!
One more useless fact; I was one of the modders in back in the very late 2000's that worked on the KotOR restoration mod. The team leader was the one that discovered mapping in KotOR modding and was and still is considered the most important advancement in the game's modding world.
Thanks for your contribution!
Title: 10 minutes or useless information about Knights of the Old Republic
Me: ten minutes well spent!
The best 10 minutes of a mans life!
Actually this isn’t useless this is very useful…….from a certain point of view
*A certain point of VIEW?*
Every single character with a last name ties into someone in the movies...something I Learned from a run-in with a former coder for Obsidian when I was in school
Ooh. Were they a teacher there?
@@michaelandreipalon359 no they weren't. I took CSTN in school and my instructor was a genius...lol...he knew a lot of people on the field and when we got into making websites and stuff using only lines of code and nothing else, he brought the guy in. All of us in the front were big star wars people...and EAW was still big at the time...it's where I learned to make my own mods.
@@Kolonol1 Still, you and the others were lucky to have an instructor with good connections.
@@michaelandreipalon359 very much so...learned so much in that class...more than any other time during school I think....college included...
I think that's sad, really. It's one thing to use references as nods, sparingly. But the games go out of their way to add in everyone in one way or another: Fett, Dodonna, Calrissian, Fortuna... Makes the galaxy feel a lot smaller and way less diverse.
That tidbit about Canderous and the Yuuzhan Vong is something I never knew. Amazing I'm still learning new things about my favorite game.
Awesome isn't it?
I actually conversed with Canderous enough to hear that story though i didnt think it was ever confirmed that they were for sure the Yuuzhan Vong but the first time i heard the story i was like is that the Yuuzhan Vong did Canderous really have an interaction with the Yuuzhan Vong also zi never knew about Malaks full name i knew it was Alek but i didnt know the rest
very fun, some interesting trivia to those who cherish the game but pretty worthless to people who don't know ins and outs. I liked the Malak's real name, they really took a piss with this one
Hey, the title says useless, so it's not clickbait
@@100StarWars yup, I'm fully satisfied with this one in that regard
My sister did that option in her original playthrough of a dark side Revan way back when, meaning that the cut content of redeeming Fem-Revan is not actually cut from the game, it's just very rare.
In the vanilla game, you can only kill Carth in that moment, you can't be redeemed.
Great video! Always great to see some love for Knights of the Old Republic and it's lore/random facts.
I would watch a 10 hours version of this. Keep it up!!!!
If only there was that much trivia hahaha
@@100StarWars well to be honest, its not about the trivia as much as its about you, your voice and your personal opinions of things. ;)
How about instead of 10 minutes, about 15 to 30? Would be overkill but why not?
10:11 “you are a scholar and a wise gentleman”
10:24 you get a like for that
A worthy like for a worthy cause.
“Evil Bastila is hot, and you can’t tell me otherwise.”
That is indeed useless information, but it’s definitely 100% correct.
Same with the Master Vrook info.
4:10 I don't think this is cut content, as I remember playing through the game and meeting deadeye Duncan on Manaan, and giving him the name mysterious stranger (and having the option to not give it to him)
Edit: I played on mobile, and it isn't available on console without a restoration mod. So it was cut content.
Absolutely incredible! You have my sub and I'm going to spend rest of the month watching every video from this channel 😏
This is really awesome. I didn't know most of this stuff! Fantastic!
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it :)
The lure of more information is difficult to resist... I fear this quest to find more useless trivia could lead you down an all too familiar path.
I love all the kotor videos you make, thanks for giving it so much love. It's so much better than the Disney movies
Ok, ok, you finally wore me down and earned my subscribe. How did you ever discover my weakness for this format? 😁
I didn’t know some of these! Love the video!
Fun right!
Fishy fishy man is still alive!!! And in that locker in the same!!!!!
Dark, light... Yes to Bastila 😍 I'd love to see a series of these, not every video, but sprinkled in would be awesome!
I can definitely make it a series!
Bastilas awsome!
8:35 also near the end of skyrims main theme “Dragonborn” you can hear a part of the dantooine track
6:00 … damn, that sounded personal 😆😅
This is the video I look for every night when trying to fall asleep
And now you have found it. Your life's goal has been acheived.
Brilliant video. I need more videos like this.
Keep an eye out for more!
You dare claim any KOTOR knowledge is useless!?
:(( forgive me
Fantastic video!
KotOR1: If you go to the dark side, your character gets new, evil, underwear instead of what they started the game with. And if you equip then unequip dark side robes from Bastila, she gets a different outfit too (the one that was used while she was imprisoned by the Vulkars).
10:09 not gonna try to argue with you there lol. Would be even hotter with more triangles
Imagine Dark Bastila... Just with EXTRA POLYGONS *dies*
Another useless fact: Catherine Taber also voiced Padmé Amidala in Star Wars: The Clone Wars TV show
Is that Vette's voice actress? (Vette >>> Mission)
@@moscanaveia Vette, Mission, and the grown version of the little girl who appeared in the Ryloth arc of the first season of TCW
kotor information is never useless
I mean, come on some of it pretty useless xD
Loved this!
Yaaay!!
I remember the first time I played KOTOR, the New Jedi Order series of novels was in the middle of it's narrative, and I had been reading the entire series, as I found the Vong to be interesting, even if many of the novels in that very long series were a bit of a chore to finish... Anyway, point being when Canderous dropped the tidbit of info about running into a Vong scout ship, I thought that was a really cool bit of overlap. Star Wars EU stuff from the early 2000s all the way until Disney bought it was really focusing in on connecting the various different eras of Star Wars fiction and connecting the games to the novels to the comics to the movies. It's a bloody shame that all of this was just abandoned.
Remember that Evil Yoda thing? They reused the concept behind the "Mentor was the BBEG all along" in another game a few years later (not revealing which one because the concept alone is a goddamned spoiler)…and no, I'm not referring to SWTOR's class stories (of which 3 have that same trope).
Indeed!
My friend I don't consider this a useless video or rubbish at all. This was like all your other videos very informative, fascinating and amazing. Like I've told you many times my friend your videos always expand my limited knowledge of the Star Wars universe.
My friend please send me a reply on this if you can. Today's episode of the Bad Batch was a lot better than last weeks filler episode. Rex contacts the Squad to rescue a Clone Commando which is Gregor on an Imperial installation, we see other Clone Commandos and new trooper armor on soldiers which is the future Stormtroopers. Gregor tells them their the Clones replacements since the Empire doesn't want to use Clones anymore and they ended their contract with the Kaminoans. Lama Su wanted to evacuate Kamino but Admiral Rampart found out about it and to make it worse Hunter got captured while saving Gregor. The last 2 episodes of the season will probably finish Crosshair's story arc since he was happy to see Hunter locked up. Let me know what you thought of it
It was okay.
love the KOTOR cantina backround music
Dude! This is the opposite of useless! I loved learning there omg!
*happiness noises*
For the last names of star wars characters there is also Organa. You can find this whole doing Javyars bounties because one of the bounty hunters killed someone with this last name.
1:46 I believe the number 47 might actually be a reference to Agent 47 from Hitman, since hk-47 is also an assassin.
I kinda liked the video. Some of the stuff I knew. Other things, no.
The facts about Vrook and Dark Bastila lol!
The two most important facts of them all.
I agree that Vrook is the most disagreeable character. He's the only returning character in KotOR 2 that elicited an "ugh... him again..." response from me.
Darth Malak was the original "meat bag".
Darth Malak lost his lower jaw when Revan cut it off in Malak's first failed attempt to take over as Sith Master when he challenged him to a duel, so he had to resort to the coward's approach and blast him with lasers, which is what kickstarts the game.
more of this please!!!
In terms of crunch being something that would "cause an uproar nowadays"; it would have caused an even bigger uproar in those days if it was public knowledge. Back then the games industry had not yet brutalised gamers into addiction to console games and inspiring zealous fandoms, and so there would likely have been much fewer people willing to go to bat for the developer. It's not a case of gamers these days being more outraged about crunch than they were back then, it's that gamers these days actually KNOW that it is happening as opposed to back then.
Add in the fact that KotOR was one of the games that helped establish consumer relations with these products as they are today. I agree with you, not enough people would find working conditions in game studios irksome and immoral, especially when you consider audiences get all finicky when games get postponed and shit.
Trask Ulgo was commemorated in SWTOR.
Great video. Several unrelated observations:
1. I didn't think that Bastila was supposed to be Vima Sunrider or that Vima could use battle meditation (I don't remember her using it in the Tales of the Jedi comics, but it's been some time since I last read through those). I thought that Bastila was supposed to be Nomi Sunrider (Vima's mother). Granted, Revan has some definite similarities to Ulic Qel-Droma, and he trained Vima in the comics. So, it could be that Vima was going to be Bastila instead of Nomi.
2. Deadeye Duncan surviving Taris and showing up on Manaan can actually be restored to KotOR with a mod. It doesn't really add much, but it is a fun addition.
3. From other fan stuff I've seen, it would not appear that this is a common opinion. However, I actually really like Vrook Lamar as a character. He very openly dislikes Revan and Meetra, so he isn't very nice when the player interacts with him in either game. He also seems arrogant. That said I still think he's an interesting character (in all fairness; I've always liked characters who were decent in general, but disliked the protagonist in particular like Major Glen Talbot and Senator Harrington Byrd from Marvel Comics). However, I totally accept that this is not remotely a common opinion and that most fans utterly loathe Vrook.
I love the one about evil bastilla being hot that is the most useless fact on this video but also like super true
I don't know if I would classify Kreia as "the main antagonist all along" as she genuinely was attempting to help you grow stronger.
From a certain point of view, so was Palpatine. Does that get the point across? XD
This was very fun
Glad you enjoyed it, Alex!
Ha, bastila is just hot, but evil one, definitely
Evil Bastila is just... phwoar
Good stuff
A masterpiece
absolutely lovely!!!!
Aw thank you so much!
* reads title *
Me: I feel betrayed. 🧐🧐
Was there anything in this video you found... useful? :O
I can’t see the video description very well on mobile, but would be good to credit Unreal Cinema for the shots of both Bastila and Revan on Dantooine 👍🏻 Cool video!
Unreal is a friend of mine, he's credited don't worry haha
@@100StarWars I thought so! Just wanted to make sure lol. Keep up the cool videos! 👍🏻👍🏻
That deadeye Duncan thing wasn't cut I remember doing that on the Xbox. I even got light side points for it
man now i want the remake to come out.
And i lowkey want to replay it but mod it with a restored content mod and maybe some mods that give it some stuff from K2 (like the force powers)
I knew Candorus met something really crazy in that story and after all these years it always stuck with me he's one of my all time favorite characters but to now make that connection is mind blowing he really is boss a 🤣
Wow...my first character on KotOR and later SWTOR was Saereth - I had no clue it was a one-time name for Bastilla (my toon was male)! Neat 😁
What a cool coincidence!
This vid was fun!
I'd also suggest the HK name is nod to the Terminator franchise where they have HK hunter killer droids.
Indeed!
Doesn't Drew Karpyshyn like to make everything about him, though?
4:10 See, I remember this happening to me on one of my playthroughs. I met Duncan on Mannan and let him take the moniker of Mysterious Stranger, I promise.
Very weird as other people have said the same thing. But every source says this was cut from the final build.
Started playing KOTOR for first time and it’s so fun
K.O.T.O.R IS LEGENDARY I STILL HAVE IT INSTALLED IN AND WILL NEVER REMOVE IT EVER!!!
what is that animation from at 6:31 to 6:38 ?
Great video, I new about the mask but didn't know the Mandalorian woman was standing against the others
A lot of people actually think it's Mandalore's own mask. Even the Revan fanboys don't know Revan trivia!
If Master Vrook is the biggest a****** in Star Wars, Griff would be the biggest c***. One of KOTOR's great underrated achievements was giving us two supporting characters with no redeeming values. Last night my game had a glitch and I was unable to rescue Griff permanently...the galaxy is far better for this.
Headcannon: Master Vrook is a secret Sith recruiter. If it were possible I would have loved to have kidnapped him and stranded him at the Academy at Korriban.
I always thought "Revan" was in reference to revanchism and the Mandalorians
dang
9:19 so that’s why Numa and Mission sound similar!
As an American I can only focus on the pronunciation of “Hey-ch”
HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEYch
Kreia was originally planned to have a mechanical hand, which is seen on the game’s box art.
No it's just a mirrored image. Hence the other hand being absent.
9:30 That's why they sound so similar!? I did not know
I expect no less than 15 minutes of fascinating information about KOTOR 2.
I'm... so sorry
@@100StarWars Eh you're fine. And your voice is good, too. You'd make a good Jedi... or possibly Sith.
where can you fnd the heart of the guardan. cant remember that
Goth Bastila got me acting strange
In Star Wars: The Old Republic, the smuggler class has a mission where he has to deliver the head of Darth Bandon to House Ulgo on Alderaan. Darth Bandon being the sith who kills Trask Ulgo at the beginning of the game.
I stan HK-47 and no one can stop me
A surprise to be sure but a welcome one
Yes, I need to agree about Dark Bastila, though Revan is hotter
How can Revan be hot when you can’t see his face?
*Personality bro*
Hey 100%, I have a video idea. What about 'What if Revan returned'?
Everyone cries Revan, why no Exar???
Thanks for the suggestion!
@@100StarWars No problem and maybe do Exar later on.
@@TruetoCaesar Exar does return. The story of his return was actually conceived of before the original story of his first run
4:47, I thought Vong ships can't go to hyperspace. I never read the books, but isn't their whole deal that they can only travel in sublight?
“Never trust a girl named Selene”
Where my WOT fans at?
I have turned Malak into a Twi'lek dancing girl a couple of times. It's very hard without a second person.
So indeed do the planets in correct order cool
Please more
