0:47 "Are you comfortable with betraying your former allies? Or killing them?" She knows she's talking to a Sith, right?
laugh would be a very nice and sithish reaction to that question
As a sith herself no less.
Murder and Mayhem await
"I'll support you either way"
I love you Lana
It's only natural to love your wife, no?
Lana and Vette best girls.
If it ain't Lana or Vet, I don't want it.
@@GrassPokeKing ewwe
@@miragespl But how am I supposed to choose between them 😭
"are you ok with betraying your former allies", hmm let me see, oh yes thats right they're sith, we kill each other for power why would i care about betraying them
Yeah, better side with the Republic who did virtually nothing to stop the Eternal Empire.
If not for the Alliance and Empire, Arcann would be f*cking them in the ass right now.
As an assasin, i had Grand moff, and other followers before the end of the class quest.
So i went with the empire, because both are pieces of shit.
So dose it turn me into a jedi and I loose my lightning hands or is there just a bunch of jedi and inquisitors running around the oppisite factions fleets now?
@@NOOBATRON-bs4jo Well I believe the lore is that after the events of the game the galaxy slowly enters a dark age where the empire and the Republic completely fall apart, the holonet shuts down and most planets lose space travel. So honestly they could do absolutely whatever they want with the story and it would make sense.
I find it surprising that some would even go so far as to label the Jedi as 'terrorists' even though the difference between the Jedi and Sith traditions speak for themselves.
This game has a great way of showing the strong and weak parts of both sides, MUCH BETTER than disney...
Jar Jar is preferable to anything Disney offers.
That is a huge understatement.
It's Bioware before they got bad. Not their peak writing, but still very good
I can barely even justify siding with the Republic on my Republic characters. The Empire have been my allies through the whole Zakuul mess, whereas the Republic have been basically no help at all.
Byne the empire are jerks,
Long live the republic
@@silviogrijalva8801 Jerks who helped the Alliance early into the second campaign while the Republic tried to usurp us. I'll take a Sith over a Chancellor any day because at least a Sith can get things done without a vote and isn't tied down by a No.
From all of my characters, the only one who would even consider joining the Republic would be my Trooper.
@Byne I have the same problem, despites wanting to side with the Republic, as Commander of the Alliance, I couldn't side with them because I needed to respect Acina's help against the Eternal Empire. No organization would side with the Alliance if my Jedi would betray them when they weren't needed anymore :/
Well, let's see. Empire says "We're allies! We'll have a treaty." Then the whole thing goes down, and the Republic is seen helping in the final fight, while not formal allies.
Then Iokath comes and the first thing the Empire does, is break the treaty by invading your territory. There is no excuse for it. Even if they did fear the Republic would find the weapon, all that had to be done, is for the Alliance to take them on and the Empire offers to help.
Empire can't be trusted. There's no reason for either side not to realize that.
"I will support you either way." Lana is such a great person.
Gotta love the clash of engines, Your Vanilla Graphics Faceass vs The Highly Textured Malora and Malgus
That's why I always wear a helmet.
drives me nuts. Looks so out of place.
I find it funny that you have to tell Lana 3 times that you're siding with the Republic (once at the end of the last chapter and twice at the start of this one)
Are you sure? 100% positive? Are you sure that you're sure?
are you absolutely , positively, 100% sure???
sorta reminds me about trying to make a claptrap character in Borderlands the pre-sequel
You think that's funny? Play an light side double agent Imperial Spy, that was really interesting given that you had already been with the republic in secret since Vanilla game. "Seriously, how much more must I do before you guys finally trust me? We have been at this game for years..."
My Sith-Warrior is extremely estranged from the Empire and I just wished I could have openly sided with the Republic.
And, to be honest, I prefer the "good" Sith over all other Force-User. He's both not bound by loyalty, as he is Sith but also not bound by the restriction of the Jedi code. As part of the Alliance not caught within the meddling of the Sith Empire, and also not under the careful watch of the Republic.
The "good" Sith is, as far as I can tell the one thing all Sith actually aspire to be. Free.
-
It's actually a fault within most Siths logic, that control over the Galaxy frees them, as control always comes with fear of being conquered, which in itself is just another prison. That's why I actually like Malora. She doesn't care for such stuff at all, her position is something she seemed to have only taken as it makes her work easier.
That's how I like to roll, as well. Trying to better the Empire for the common folk. Unbound by any code but his own, Darth Brojangles sought to unify his people under a less malicious banner.
The Sith Inquisitor can even call out Thanaton during the Kaggath by completing the Sith Code for him, which actually earns his grudging respect.
Just like DND
Lawful Good isnt Lawful Nice
and Chaotic Evil isnt Chaotic Jerk.
Nicely summarized.
I one hundred percent agree I love the proposition of a light sided with it is the most free of any character. I know if I was my sith marauder I’d be a light sided one that chooses bad things every now and then.
I´m very disappointed with my Jedi Knight, I joined forced with Imps like 4 times at this point, and i still am killing imps all day long with only difference being that i got like 3 messages from imp robot that i undermined republic operation. Just let me go full Sith mode already!
Ketenkrad96 unfortunately the ancient sith believed that Jedi were impure and unfit too become sith as they had a connection too the light
@@brutaldecoder4169 The ancient sith are hypocrites then. They were originally Jedi themselves before the schism.
@@KLamki1 that's correct even Marka Ragnoss the greatest sith Emperor admits as such however the sith naturally have a far greater connection too the dark side then any former jedi due too the sith species as a result hate the dark jedi that founded the sith as well since they were formally jedi
just play a sith
@@TheGIJew. But then you can't betray the good guys XD
I feel they are ruining the New Empire. Acina seemed like a fine Empress, until I saw her lacking the connection to the Force that Marr, Satele and even Lana had. The latters could feel the Emperor's presence from far away, while Acina couldn't when he talked to the Outlander right next to her. Then by making her "maybe" dead, they rendered the Emperor/Empress irrelevant, as neither Acina nor Vowrawn are likely to have any serious roles in the future. Then they introduced a member of the newly formed Dark Council, and she was a joke. Then they reintroduced Malgus, and he appears to be a puppet. We need someone like Marr.
Malgus wont be shackled down forever.
Bindair Dundat honestly empress Acina is just doing the same thing Malgus did just without getting almost killed by the empire itself
@AquaJetEmpoleon same with the revanites
Bindair Dundat only a puppet because Acina places bombs in his implants
Damn, I felt bad for the imps :( For the soldiers mostly
Not me ... can't wait till I can get on my Imp character and betray
I thinking about something if a Light side Imperial Agent as chosen a his story ending (end of chapter 3 of his Class Story) to become a double Agent for the Republic does you think the dialogue would change with Jonas (and another thing his Dialogue actually change a little bit with a Trooper mine was a jerk at him)
Betraying Anri hurt more than I thought
You got the extremists in positions of power and the family man on the front lines. Just how the galaxy works I suppose.
@@lordsamuel9548 I did this and the dialogue was a bit different. You can't say that you worked for SIS befor but you get a line (the first one after he explains what he wants from you) that is like "not ths double-agent crap again" ^^
Honestly I am disappointed by this. Instead of actually letting the player joining the other side it’s ‘nope must be kept secret’
Oh, you can't? Then what did I do on Iokath? I didn't straight up join one side there? 🤔
I'm not surprised by this. They do the same thing with Imperial Agents who want to defect to the Republic.
Okay, fair point. I think joining any side is stupid anyway. Siding with them, okay. But I would stay loyal to the alliance.
Tbh, this is probably the next step they are going for. If they do it, it'll be big balls tho'.
I want to destroy them both, and create a new Era with the alliance. But it won't happen. One side is filled with corruption, the other side is filled with wickedness. Both area bad... but the empire not having a leash on sith is bad for them.. the empire soldiers and citizens need to put up with the lunacy of siths...
This story will certain fit better for the Imperial "Double" Agent character since he or she been a double agent for the Republic for a long time and he or she finally get to make double agent actions.
That's exactly how I'm playing my LS agent..... finally
thoguht the same only way i will play as the sabatage is as a double agent
If you play as a light inquisitor (don't judge) this actually makes a lot of sense. Having watched the empire make the same stupid power plays over and over again your vison of sith that transcend all that nonsense now looks like a pipe dream. Best to flip the table while there's still the chance. Hopefully the next chapters will be more than just double angent crap though.
I played on light side as inquisitor too!
I have two accounts, each dedicated to light or dark. My light inquisitor is almost as fun as my light warrior. But warrior wins out by being able to sass Baras every other conversation.
@@dylanwight5764 *Vette greatly approves of the sass*
@@HHopebringer she really does. Gawd Baras was such a pushover. What a waste of a Darth title...
Light side inquisitor makes a lot of sense and works well. You go from Slave to hero of the Galaxy
I sided with them as a Inquisitor. I wish Bioware would add an permanent end game option that will let us actually join the republic side of the game... As in allow us access to the Republic fleet and planets.
So this basicly means Malgus is being controlled??
interesting.... it makes logical sense, because he can probably kill the new Dark Councel and the new Emperor/Empress without mutch trouble , and also sins Malgus has not exactly proven himself to be loyal considering last time we fought him. he basicly betrayed the Empire... still im very curious to see how this wil play out im guessing it won't go as planned lol
He betrayed the Empire because of its ancient ways and xenophobia. The new Empire is basically how he envisioned his own, so he had no real reason to betray it.
1:00 oh my god,to hear an actual sith saying that
It's treason, then.
Yeah its....pretty fucked.
At the very least, I would expect my Sith oc to stay neutral. Take over Zakuul and just live. But nope, gotta pick. Kinda a "meh" story at this point.
The new faces in this update are awesome. How long til we can get similar detailed characters.
sadly, probably never. if we do get new faces with the 6.0 I'll be suprised though.
@@ApexRetard Honestly if we do, it will be part of a pack that we have to buy and then spend CC to change to. Though if that's what we got, I'd still be happy, those animations and visuals are just insanely good looking. Sad there wasn't more involved with this content. It was over way too fast. I ended up taking 7 character through it today.
If it is for CC's, just get a security key, It's free and gives you 100 CC every month. A long wait sure, but cosmetic unlocks on the market are not that expensive ;)
@@k.v.7681 Yeah. I sub so I also get the 500 CC every month as well. But I'd happily dump fresh $$ to get new hair/faces as well.
It’s weird but I kinda hope we get a Malgus romance. Something to do with that “leash” Malora mentioned, perhaps. Idk how it would work cause of his respirator thing, but whatever 😂
Personally I want him as a permanent companion. You can play around with him for the Jedi Temple and he makes Pre-KotFE HK and Treek look like toddlers.
Well if they made Khem a romance option, I don't think anything is out of the realm of possiblity now.
@@cassandra9581 you joking right? Did they really do that?
@@9553shadow They did that. I created a new toon just so I could romance him.
As someone who has been getting back into SWTOR and as a light side assassin I'm not sure how to feel about this. Truth be told I'd rather not side with either as I personally do believe in trying to find peace between the two of them. That and despite being an assassin I'm not sure how I feel about turning fully against the empire. Then again I'm only as far as the Revan expansion so perhaps the empire will find a way to disappoint me so spectacularly that I side with the republic.
I feel like if you “join the republic” you are making a better power move than any sith has. Plus the empire is always betraying each other lmfao is it really that shocking 😂
But I feel sorry for the regular soldiers :(
@@xLetalis well, but you are still helping republic civilians right?
I'm siding with the Empire with almost all of my characters, even with the rep ones -> which btw looks and sounds really good with the Trooper i think, who (spoiler!) in the original story hunted down their former squad mates who deserted to the Empire after they lost faith in the Republic, Now, i can say that my Trooper lost faith as well, after seeing that the Republic indeed did not care about its people and the galaxy as much as they say. Unlike the Empire. (that is all my personal opinion, ofcourse.)
This what all my characters are doing
Imp Agent- Rejoins the Empire
Rep Trooper- Joins the Empire
Smuggler- Rejoins the Republic
Bounty Hunter- Joins the Republic
Sith Inquisitor- Rejoins the Empire
Jedi Consular- Rejoins the Republic
Sith Warrior- Rejoins the Empire
Jedi Knight- Rejoins the Republic
"I hope that you never do"
Welp, Malgus, that wasn't ominous at all, thanks.
Vowrawn becoming the Sith Emperor! How low the Empire has become...
My inquisitors would probably join the Republic because he would see how crippled the Empire has become since the invasion of Zakuul, where at that point they almost lost the war. He would let the Republic finish off the weak link and then turn on the republic ( if the game allows it)
I love the subtle "Oh crap" semi-pause when you flirt back with Jonas.
I’m going to go through the Trooper siding with the Empire in Jedi Under Siege...the Troopers storyline in Vanilla justifies it in my opinion lol .
So you kill or arrest your ex squad for doing that but when you do it it's ok lol
@Obi-Wan Kenobi
Still doesn't make any sense.
Especially as a Sith Warrior or Inquisitor you are ridiculously strong by the end of your Campain.
I want to see Sith inq opinion on The new dark council
He/she wants to "meet" the guy who is in control of the Sith Doctrine Seat; it the seat in which his old seat was merged into together with 2 other old seats.
Thanks for uploading this!! I couldn't find any other "saboteur" walkthrough on UA-cam or Twitch! :)
The music at the end was Darth Revan's theme music maybe Revan will return and or it will be his fallowers returning
If the this was an offline game, I might come back just for that.
As I created a story for my Sith Warrior in my head, where she would try to join the Jedi (she had 100% Light Side in SWTOR and tried to spare every Republic Life possible)
But since I had my troubles with the game since Shadows of Revan I stopped somewhere during the Eternal Empire Story.
Any plans for a video about Republic Character siding with Empire?
Its going to be his fem trooper no doubt
No doubt. xLetalis is nothing if not thorough and always seems to explore ALL the options.
I like how in this video you got moused despite the track being a part of the game.
I have a a light side warrior who’s out to reform the empire to that goal I’m staying loyal
TY for this. I was REALLY curious about it. I was even tempted to use a boost just to see this.
you're welcome!
I can’t leave the empire that’s were my family is, we are sith
Yeah, they helped quite a lot when The Eternal Empire attacked te galaxy, destroyed Kaas City, didn't recognize you as Darth Nox, a member of the Dark Council and then replaced Tenebrae without even letting you know. I would kill every Imperial out of the ones in my Alliance
And what did the republic do to help the alliance in a desperate time? Nothing!! Thats why i keep choosing to support the empire. That and the new empress wants to do what marr & malgus wanted to do: do away with the useless dogma and learn from the past without being stuck in it
Jason Leslie the empire is like the krogan without the genophage direct them towards something that is a universal threat and it is done and over with and then it will bite you in the back.
@@wolfbatson7668 and the Republic is a stunned beast paralyzed by fear & indecision. With the exception of former chancellor Suresh who is just power-mad & would have done great in the empire. None of the Republic was willing to take risks and help, save for those that join the alliance. If they had help like the empire was willing to do I can see how they would be a very good conflict on how to decide which side to join. But to be fair the krogen were premature for galactic society in the first place and were uplifted for their brutish nature & ability to reproduce very quickly then things got out of control after the war was won. Which is,in a way, the same equivalent of taking a creature out of its natural habitat and ecosystem and placing it into do another where it didn't evolve into. Now I wouldn't & dont question them on using the genophage they clearly tried to consider & use all their options but when none were available they did the only thing that was available. In a way it help give rise to wise leaders. Add that you add the female shamans as advisers & take a more active role in their society. The krogen will again find their racial balance.
@@wolfbatson7668 I wish we could keep the alliance as it is as a choice you're essentially living proof that synthesis/coexistance is possible
Lana siding with the Commander against the Empire despite the sadness in her eyes and voice is why she is my favorite character
Gnost-Dural's work can be found here: ua-cam.com/video/KeboxMqdXdE/v-deo.html
I wish you could get Vowrawn while siding with the imps! Acina is ok but it would be great for my Sith Warriors to have someone they have a history with on their side.
I left SWTOR a few years ago and never looked back, I'm having a great time now on FF14. But its scenes like what happens in the last minute of this video that make it very tempting to return. I'm glad there's at least a few well written moments again from Bioware, but its not enough to make me come back fully, there's still waaay too many problems. Maybe I'll come back if they make it free to play and unlock all the content when they decide to shut it down, hopefully by then we'll have another Star Wars MMO out. Also glad to see Malgus again, menacing and awesome as always.
yeah occasionally there's some good stuff in here
i thought swtor was already f2p.....or is it the expansion?uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
@@nguyenten6877 I meant more when they decide to shut down the game they make everything f2p, no more suns or restrictions so everyone can experience it before shut down. But since bioware is owned by EA this prolly won't happen.
@@williamradke4290 They'd shoot anyone who would even suggest it.
I do miss it sometimes but its never enough to to resub, yeah supposed to be F2P but I think I would lose most of my gear because of the restrictions if I did just do F2P.
I wonder how Gnost-Dural knew Emperor's original name (Vitiate was official one, but original was hidden, only 3 characters in the games that may have known it were Revan, Scourge and Dramath)
My guess he peered inside the players mind with the force
by Revan then.
He's a historian. I HIGHLY recommend watching this video about his works: ua-cam.com/video/KeboxMqdXdE/v-deo.html
@@randompost78154 I watched those ages ago, he may be a historian, but Emperor covered all his tracks, especially after Revan's attack. It was mentioned that it was incredibly hard to get this information even by Darth Nyriss, who was like 3rd most important person in Empire by then.
Revan, I'm not sure how much time he spent on Carrick Station, it may be possible, but I think he went straight for the Foundry after basic debriefing.
Revan went to Tython before the Foundry, it's likely he gave them a detailed report of his findings.
Back when SWTOR was sub based, you could unlock a race to use them as any class by clearing the main campaign of a class that could be that race by default. I don't know if this is still a thing, I haven't played in years.
I did a playthrough as a Sith Pureblood Assassin, and another as a Miraluka Sentinel.
Then I made fresh characters as a Sith Pureblood Sage, and a Miraluka Sniper, purely because those were the least sensible race/class combos I could think of. A Sith Jedi healer? A blind sniper? Both perfect.
I think it's still how it works
@@xLetalis really
What I'm wondering is how Malora was surprised Malgus was alive earlier, yet she knew Acina rebuilt him and put him on a leash at 6:43. Had he supposedly died once again since Acina rebuilt him?
Didn't even think of that...well then
Maybe she figured it out after she fell down the shaft? I imagine she still had some resources in the Empire to piece it together :/
I absolutely missed that. Is the dialogue the same if you don't get Acina killed?
I wonder if the imperial agent who side with the republic at the end of his/her story, has extra line if you inflitrate the empire.
"business as usual"
5:57 the backgrounds doesn't move.
*She's sliding toward us!*
The spazzing out cape and head tentacles just add to the charm in the end.
As a hardcore, DEVOTED player of the Dark Side......
I DECLARE THIS OPTION HERESY!
Exterminatus?...... Exterminatus.
I did this on my main SW, but I only started having second thoughts about betraying the Empire when I remembered that Vowrawn was now the emperor. Not my anti-Baras buddy :'(
*Impressive* that they still not fixed the cape getting stuck up ones legs/ass!
Oh shit!, I was not aware that Acina can die. Never helped Republic on Iokath..even as my Jedi Knight. Glad you make those videos Sub for you!
thanks
I have a Sith sorcerer (boosted character) who sided with the republic, pretty interesting when playing hehe
My Warrior joined the Republic, sick of being betrayed by every master she ever had. But she felt mocked as a spy, made to undermine the Empire instead of facing it on the battlefield. So she made sure that she made the Republic hurt as much as possible as revenge
This lowkey made the imperial agent a little less special but still special as you be a spy in vanilla
Talk about a missed opportunity, it really would be a big balls move to actually defect to the other side, makes sense for a light sided Sith Inquisitor to join the Republic since you start off as a slave, so it would be perfect pay-back against the Empire.
I always wanted my Sith Warrior to defect. Turns out it doesn't mean much.
Not tell September
Shouldve been given an alt path where you openly switch
I felt more sympathy for these Imperial soldiers in an hour than I did for Finn in 2 awful movies.
The movies never intended to feel bad for finn and I still dont understand the hate for tfa. Wait oh yeah star wars fans
Deadshot 500 The hate comes from Failure Awakens being unoriginal, poorly written, politically correct mess. And you’re seriously telling me the film didn’t want me to feel bad when his friend died on the battlefield? If so either you’re in denial or the movie is better written than I thought (though not by much) since I still don’t care about Finn despite that.
@@KingNazaru Political mess? Where? Poorly written? I think the writting was decent. Unoriginal? Yeah it had some plot points used in a diffrent way so what, disney needed to play it safe because of the backlash the prequels got for being "diffrent". I just dont see it deserving hate it gets.
Finally someone with sense and rationality in the comment section.
If being 'PC' means having a female lead in the sense that her voice is higher and she was probably a larger target to molesters on Jakku, then I feel sorry for those people who clearly don't know the likes of Ghostbusters 2016, or even worse Ocean's Eight. And what the hell is wrong with having a black main character.
Poorly written is that one horrendous scene at the start of Revenge of the Sith, the entirety of Attack of the Clones, half of The Phantom Menace, and a few select scenes of Return of the Jedi, as well as some pretty disgusting EU novels.
As for unoriginal, please point me to the character in A New Hope that was a stormtrooper who defected to the Rebels (And no, Han Solo does not count as it took extra material/an entire movie to establish that based on Legends/Current Canon), please point me to the guilt-ridden father having to confront his monstrous son, please point me to the rivalry between the Sith apprentice and the lead Imperial officer, please point me to where we saw visions of the past that made it clear there was a larger plot in mind from the beginning.

My Imperial Agent chose the Republic because she got tired of all the BS they kept trying to put her through. Although she did side with the Empire on Iokath because it was paying back for them helping on Voss. But after that, she helped the Republic since. If she could actually burn that bridge to the Empire she would in a heartbeat.
The Sith senses her betrayal.
i dont know why, but darth malgus seems almost scared 13:07
definitely, Acina has him by the balls, so to speak ;]
@@xLetalis damn straight xD
I'm kind of stuck just before the Iokath story on one character because I know they make you choose, but even though it's my most LightyMcLightSide jedi, I'm _still_ not sure about siding with the Republic.
Everywhere you look, it seems like they're owned and run by corrupt politicians and glory-hound generals, and no matter how many honest, good-hearted citizens and brave, dedicated soldiers you meet, it's the bad guys at the top who give the orders. At least the empire seems to be headed in a new direction (from what I've seen so far), in that while they're still bloody _sith,_ I still feel like I can trust them more than anyone in Republic leadership.
I didn't even know you could get Vowrawn as the emperor if you didn't side with Acina, and he's the probably the nicest, most helpful, most level-headed of the sith in the entire game, second only to Darth Marr (give or take the 'nice' part).
TL;DR: Thank you for showing us what happens for those that pick the Republic. :D
The Empire literally started Galactic War 3 over an isolated Jedi farm colony that wasn't hurting anybody.
The Republic suffered with corruption in the past, especially with Saresh, but are moving in a much better direction, especially with leaders like General Daeruun.
@@trivipesnipe Pretty sure the war was on again since Iokath, even if not officially, and while neither side was in the 'right' there, the Republic had consistently shown me that they're run by monsters where the sith had come to my aid even without guarantee of profit and shown some sense multiple times, the bickering council having been pretty much annihilated.
If the Republic is _just now_ cleaning up by the time of Jedi Under Siege, they're just a little too late, because this is the first I'm hearing it.
If it makes you feel any better, though, we all know that in the long run, the Republic (or at least, _a_ republic) is still standing by the time of the movies. :)
@@Twitchy_McExorcism I dont see how the Republic has shown that at Iokath. They literally go there to protect themselves and make sure the Empire doesnt obtain a massive advantage over them.
The war as a whole doesnt reignite in full until Ossus. They even say as much in the story.
@@trivipesnipe The Republic was there for the exact same reasons as the sith; they wanted any advantage Iokath and its made-the-goddamn-eternal-fleet technology could offer them, as the republic general proves if you don't side with him. He also proves he's willing to kill everyone and everything if he doesn't win, if I remember right, though I have to assume Acina does the exact same thing if you go Republic.
I repeat; the war may not have 'officially' started with Iokath, but what do you call it when the forces of two factions start killing each other on the orders of their higher-ups? A difference of opinion?
@@Twitchy_McExorcism planetary war isn't the same as a full on interstellar war, and the conflict on iokath was isolated to Iokath for a time, rather than the larger galaxy.
I think I might be the only one who actually likes the whole bad-guy-turns-good-guy thing when it comes to SWTOR. I've never done it, before, but I've always liked that idea. It makes things interesting, and...yes, fun. I don't get why some people seem to be against this sort of thing in the game. I mean, to each their own, but...geez.
Thank you for these uploads! :)
My Sith are LS, so this is a great idea.
Will you do a “Jedi Knight chooses Empire “?
So basically choosing to contact the Republic or Empire after Nathema was ultimately pointless, then? Good to know.
7:46 I swear that I'm hearing Soldier 76!!
you are
also i still can't believe malgus is still alive
I can. I heard somewhere that he was put in carbonite sometime during the war.
yup indeed
Thank god he is, swtor wouldn't be great without Malgus or Marr. Would be nice if Malgus became the emperor though, he had a better vision than Valkorion did in my opinion.
agreed that would be really cool
Of course they would keep him alive. Malgus is the Arthas/Lich King of Swtor. Killing him permanently would to kill part of what Swtor was.
I always toe the line in SWTOR as far as loyalty goes. As a Sith I am far less cruel than others even going so far as to display mercy,compassion,and even a willingness to work with Jedi while my Jedi walk dangerously close to the dark with their relationships. Essentially I'd likely side with the Republic more often than not.
I'm hoping that after or during the expansion that we can switch factions and able to go to the fleet and also the capital worlds
My Inquisitor joined the Republic as a way of saying "fuck you" to the empire for his years of being a slave
It would be cool if they made an mmo in which your choices actually alter the map and the people you see like some single player games do. But I can only imagine how much trouble that would be.
yeah...
EVE Online sorta-kinda fits that since it's entirely player-driven.
@@S3Cs4uN8 Yes... I tried it a long time ago. But that one, I wouldn't be surprised if it had an ingame stock market and all.
I think it could be a cool option if you can at one point compleatly the sides ... like a story bound faction change
Gosh my first time his voice sounds very nice.
wow Gnost-Dural sure seem arrogant saying he can take out the commander and malgus for some odd reason i can't help but think of mace windu at that moment don't ask me why i just do OKAY! anyway love your vids mate :D
I'd love to have the republic be a good company to join but I just can't deal, sith give you more room and have more passion and actually humanity.
It's funny how Lana supports the commander no matter what. I'm currently playing as a neutral Jedi Knight, and I actually felt bad siding with the Republic because Acina joined the Alliance to help me take the Eternal Throne, and I actually think she's a good leader. Not to mention, she and I killed a traitor together on Dromund Kaas. I totally got why she would want me dead after betraying our alliance. The only way I could roleplay it in my head was my Jedi Knight thought what would Master Orgus think if she turned her back on the Republic. He and Satele both always had a lot of faith in the JK. The choice was easier then. Still, I wish there was another option where you get to ignore both sides. A neutral option would've been nice, but I guess bioware doesn't have the budget or staff for multiple stories with diverging paths for this MMO.
Joining the Empire is self-defeating... we already know the Sith Empire ultimately loses the war... but hey, that won't stop me from hoping that I get to sit on the imperial throne for a few minutes before Dromund Kaas gets bombed to oblivion by the Republic.
I sided with the Republic as a Sith Warrior (Light Side) because I wanted to see Malcom reacting of reuniting with his son, Theron Shan and I didn’t want Malcom to die in “War for Lokath”
Now we can actually play a real traitor, even if we own our own empire. I'm gonna make a Jedi Knight who really has the heart of a Sith and a dark streak, but finds true appeal in the Dark Side after Vitiate turns him :p Let's face it, the Republic (except maybe the Jedi) are just as vile and corrupt as the Empire, only the Empire doesn't pretend otherwise. I always respected that about them in a weird way.
indeed
No the Jedi are also corrupt proven by kotor2 the council tries to kill you out of fear not justice and swtor the council hid many secrets
the empire is supremacist, racist, has slaves, is tyranical, has an hierarchy where mobility can be only achieved through betrayal and power plays
the republic is equalitarian, a democracy, and is set on achieving peace, not conquest
you can talk about hypocrisy and corruption, but the republic isn't evil, it is flawed, but it's principles are inherently good, the empire on the other hand is the literal empire of evil run by genocidal tyrants
Chancellor Saresh though... she would've made a fine Sith if she could use the Force :p Hell, Darth Malgus is more honorable than her, despite being a Sith slaughtering thousands. At least he's honest about it lol. If only Vitiate showed his face more often, there probably wouldn't have been so many power plays among the Dark Council. But yeah, those are just individual cases. Overall, you're pretty much correct ;)
My guess is in time we will see faction swaps. Probably for Cartel coins..
I think Vowrawn suits Emperor very well, he seems more conniving and meticulous
Wait, if you side with the Republic on Iokhat you still have to join the empire as a saboteur?
11:37 After Empress Acina’s death, Vowrawn became the New Sith Emperor
YES - finally an Empire traitor !!
I think it's spell "Traitor"
Spelling police never change -- who cares ?I mean really .... typing on a phone isn't easy
Denise Masters you still changed it tho
Yeah...Anri has 100% replaced Jaesa, Vette, and Ashara as my Bae. Love her personality and voice actress.
I wonder if we'll see her again
I have a feeling that we're not exactly "join" the republic but since both the warrior and jedi knight seem to have the most of their crew become companions. As the sith warrior we'll get the JEdi Battlemaster as a companion and the Jedi knight will get the former wrath as a companion in the next portion of onslaught later this year. More sabotage turn cloak typed missions.
Kinda irrelevant but if you ever see this message what is the chest piece for your sith warrior? Really like the way it looks on a twi lek
Gosh I can't remember... I got it WAY back when I used to play the game more often, probably 4 years ago or something :( Check Torfashion, you may find it there
This video already hurts. I never realized how massive Malgus actually is.
Being loyal to the empire most of the time, it really pains me to watch this. 😓
Ugh! I get a headache at even the thought of joining the republic. 😤
yeah, I felt guilty about it
Comments here reminds why I do those assassination missions on kotor and at the same time slaughtered the sith academy. But a 55 is what I am in reality. In game wise, a nice Solari crystal can make all the difference. A instant kill stick and blaster works fine too
I see our little lightsaber friend still is in the habit of turning twi'lek heads
This comment is really late but I didn’t join the until around a couple of years ago and I only got 8 characters to the end of the current expansion and this is who they all sided with
Jedi knight: republic
Jedi consiler (please correct if misspelled) : republic
Smuggler: saboteur (quit)
Trooper: republic
Sith warrior: empire
Sith inquisitor: empire
Bounty Hunter: empire
Agent: saboteur
I'm pretty sure in last cutscene we should have seen a shuttle taking off.
I want to like, but it's currently at 666 - fitting for an Imp themed video xD
Edit: ahh screw it, I liked :)
thanks ;]
..... Great and now i have to come back and play this. Most of my Characters will end up Empire supporting...
I had Issues with the game before but pretty much all of them were to do with In-Game Drama. It'll be better now i suspect.
I made a JC Sith Pureblood. arc story as follows (Was a Sith Acolyte, He was sent on an errand to extract information from a Jedi prisoner what transpired was a plead for help which was met by the Young Sith Pureblood after proving himself worthy of the Jedi Prisoner attention he was then asked to follow his heart and not to damn himself into the nature of the Darkside. The Jedi made a cunning plan, he suggested that neither would be able to leave the damned planet without high enough authority meaning the Sith Acolyte would have to earn enough respect to further and fulfil his destiny whilst having an ulterior motive. Both escaped Korriban lucky to be alive, the Acolyte used a false excuse as to why he was escorting the prisoner off-world, in which he made the reply "For his trial in front of the Dark Council on Dromund Kas." Once they made it off-world it would appear they took the fastest route to Tython, where the young Acolyte would indeed retrain and learn the Jedi teachings however still harbouring on to his Dark nature when in conflict against followers of his former religion.) I am thinking of using the Ossus storyline to make the story full loop, it's strange because I found his character to take up more dark side choices in KOTFE/KOTET. But ultimately his lust for power has got the better of him since being the commander which led him into not wanting any equals alive if possible.
9:00 Oh my god this is Darth Brush XD How can he be so static seriously??
You didn't run into Light Side Jaesa? I did.
I did, but the meeting does not have anything to do with the betrayal of the empire
@@xLetalis do you need to betray the empire if you want LS jaesa to join you back or can you just side with the empire and still get her? I'm literally scared lol
@@CheeseOfMasters you do not need to
Do you get special contacts or companions if you side with one side or the other I cant seem to find any info on if so then who
