Hello there,
I have just recently found out about this mod and how it restores supposed incomplete but proposed content back into KOTOR II. I have been using this mod from the time when one departs the Citadel Station on Telos, through to Korriban and part way onto Nar Shaddaa (Just been captured by Goto).
So I have a few questions about it if that's ok?
Right then:
1: I'm wondering about the level of canon content in this mod? Example: Was it actually proposed by Lucas Arts and Obsidian that there would definately be a playable part on Nar Shaddaa where Atton, Bao-Dur and <partymember> would fight their way past bounty hunters?
And things such as restored story plots? Is it 100% certain that they would have been part of the game (and thus the story)? Because I know that it is easy to misinterpret the context of lines of speech etc.
2: How was it found out which content was missing? By searching game files or contacting Lucas Arts/Obsidian?
3: Is it certain that the restored content would have been added should Lucas Arts and Obsidian have had longer to develop the game? Because I know sometimes in films, although they move certain scenes out of the film and into the category of 'Deleted Scenes', it is not always because of time restraints, sometimes there was a proposed scene that had been developed and properly refined, but later on discarded because it would not fit into the story as well as intended. (Example: Star Trek Nemesis: (POSSIBLE SPOILERS) There is a deleted scene where Shinzon is in the Romulan Senate, prior to being revealed to the audience via the scene on the Warbird. This was taken out because the directory wished the audience to know as much about Shinzon as Picard, therefore being surprised when he is slowly revealed.)
If you catch my flow on that point?
Ye so basically, is this 100% canon content? Reason I ask this is I want the story to be a pure and original as it is; to only have what was set down by the creators (Lucas Arts and Obsidian) and I do not wish a warped story. (Not sure if anyone knows what I mean by this). I do hold the story to be very important.
Just incase anyone interpreted this tone as being critic based, it was not meant this way. People have different canon/non-canonical sensitivity values; some don't mind user-generated content, some do. I am quite touchy with the user-generated content I download (depending on the game and story of course).
So if anyone could clear this up for me that would be great!
Thanks
