I think that Lucasarts and BioWare meant Revan as a man. No disrespect for the women character fan players, but I think that the original story was about a man, who fell to the dark side, then his mind was cleansed and killed his former student Darth Malak. Generally it's really annoying to refer Revan everywhere in KotOR 2, a woman.

But since it's done - it's done. :whistling: I like the game, it's great, but IMHO Revan was a man and Bastila should've been in the game as Revan's lover, not Carth Onasi. :closedeyes:

For women fans - maybe they should release some mods or patches where Revan is refered as a man or a woman, as a choice of the player. It wouldn't be much... :rolleyes:

Ah, not necesarily. In KotOR 2 Atton says the Revan was a woman, and you have to correct him to say she was a man. Gender in games doesnt really make much difference, although I do think Revan is more a man's name then a woman's.

In TSL, almost everybody mentions Revan as female. No objections from me, really. Doesn't really matter, IMO.

EDIT: Oh, please don't put spoilers in the topic title. :)

The Atton conversation defines whether the npcs refer to Revan as a female or a male. At least I didn't see any npc referring Revan as a woman after the questions about Revan in the early stage of the game.

Just a suggestion, but perhaps something should be put under the link to this sub-forum telling people not to come here if they dont want spoilers for KotOR 1.

Yeah, that's nice, but Bastila doesn't show, no matter Revan is male, female or Hutt...:)

Yes she does.
If Revan was evil/male, T3 shows a holo-image of her once you look at his behaviour core. You also see her from the Sith Holocron on Korriban.
If Revan was good/male, you get a different T3 holo-image, and she and Carth turn up right near the end on Telos.

the annoying thing is that even though I corrected Atton that Revan was a LS female, conversations deeper into the game kept refering to Revan as 'him'.

Where is decided Revan's alignment? I think I said that he was light side, but everyone keeps saying that he was evil.

Jup, they still talk of him as being 'corrupted by the dark side'. I am playing light and played KotOR I light so I choose that too. Just the way the Jedi Order thinks, I think.. :)

Heh, Revan was exactly as I told Atton he was throughout the game. Though come to think of it, I think he may have been reffered to as 'she' by someone other than Atton once.
