Yup. It's confirmed. Revan is in SWTOR and ( probably) dies in the game

As far as I'm concerned Revan was dead to me when he became male in canon. I lost all interest in the character outside KotOR replays then. That the Exile was fridged to give him further pathos slammed the final nail in his coffin. His appearance in SWtOR is probably Forced fanservice. Dude should've been dead hundreds of years ago after all. :P

Yeah, after reading some of the supposed spoilers from the Revan novel, it sounded terrible what they canonized with Revan and the Exile and shoving him into TOR is just stupid pandering.

Hijacking old PCs for the sake of a stupid boss battle is just stupid.

Just more proof that TOR is the game nobody actually wanted.

Spoilers for the Revan book here. It goes over why Revan is in TOR and what happened to the Exile.

It sounds bad.

For me, its not that they brought him back that upsets me. I actually think it could be pretty interesting. What upsets me is that they went through so much trouble trying to get him in the game then just killing him as soon as we meet him.

This <_< I really, really didn't want to see LucasArts milking the franchise for every cent by making it into a MMO. This just puts the final nail in the coffin.

Seriously?! KotOR II's plot was incredible, and they just retcon it all away? I have a newfound hatred for Drew Karpyshyn.

Why must they degrade old protagonists? Let them have the ending they earned and stop tormenting them.

...

What in tarnation?

And here I thought Karpyshyn only killed off his own introduced-by-novel characters in arbitrary and pointless ways. I suppose it's good that he's branching out.

I suppose I'll have to read it for myself. What he's apparently done with the Exile - someone who I found infinitely more interesting than Revan, I might add - honestly infuriates me, both in terms of ultimate fate and how everything distinct about him/her appears to have jettisoned. S/he just sounds like Yet Another Incompetent Jedi now. Needing Revan to rescue her? Hahaha.

[edit] Also? It sounds as if he's retconned Kreia out of existence. If he has, my fury will know no bounds. She was my favourite antagonist out of everything and anything ever. Ever. Revan and Malak were pantomine villans tying damsels to railroad tracks and twiddling their moustaches by comparison.

Lol.

"takes the game he did not write for and retcons"
Obsidian has much better writers and Drew reused the idea of Nihilus's power which is bull****.

Wait...

Why the **** is Revan still alive?

ugh...

like i needed another reason not to play TOR, not like i was gonna do it anyway, Payed MMOs can burn in hell for all i care.

EDIT: this comment sums it up:

"My god Bioware...what the **** are you doing? Letting 3 people kill
Revan in a mid-level instance? If you wanted to kill him off early to
make room for the rest of TOR's story, then don't bring him back in the
first place. Say he died of old age 250 years ago or something."

or at least, if you're gonna make the players kill him, make him a powerful ass honorable boss or something.

Its most likely a fake Revan honestly this is something the public should not see and is a huge spoilier for something in game.

Did a tester take this?

Y'know, a more suspicious, cynical type of person than I might have to wonder at whether the ease with which KotOR2's entire plot has been torn asunder might've been, shall we say, facilitated by it not being a product of Bioware. I notice KotOR1's (far, far less interesting) back story has been largely untouched.

But you'd have to be a pretty unpleasant person to think that, eh?
