Started Eternal Throne again, 3rd time playing through it. 2nd time i skipped most cutscenes, but this time around giving things my full attention again. I noticed somethings that haven't been addressed (or something i didn't notice), and wanted to see if anyone could explain them. Bare with me here lol Question one: So my JK is talking to Lana after trying to find some water after landing in the Endless Swamp. She mentions that Eternal Empire takes tributes from both sides of the pub and imp, that stifles economic growth. My character makes the observation of Zakuul looking like it does not need these resources. Was this ever addressed again, did we ever find out where the 'tributes went? Question two: At some point Valkorion (vitiate) admits to having taken over the real valkorion's body, he ate away at his mind, sort of like how he's doing to you by the end of Fallen Empire. Senya had once told you that Valkorion wasn't always as distant as we was towards his later years (possibly implying this was before vitiate took over). Marr mentions as you meet valkorion in person that the Eternal Empire was his 'distraction' this whole time. So my question is here, how long has vitiate been valkorion? Zakuul seemed pretty established since before him, and his kids seem to have always disliked him, but Senya remembers a different man. Question 3 kind of stems off 2, How could vitiate have been fighting the JK/ any other PC, but also having kids that were relatively around your age at the same time in the universe? Unless his take over was more recent, in which case, it doesn't explain all of Valkorion's actions even before your character gets there.

I say he works, since he's not really an actual romantic love interest, or rather 'full' romance

Maybe this has been asked already. I was wondering who everyone favorite companions were out of the non-romancable ones. I started playing a Jedi Consular for the first time and I'm really enjoying Qyzen as a character, for a trandoshan he's pretty reasonable and honorable. I also liked Broonmark, but I feel they added him a bit late in the SW story that he didn't get to shine much after recruitment.

Yeah, they were another set of people i was very curious about, because depending on if Acina dies, Vowran takes her place, but if you side with her she doesn't. I feel as thought its just a complex situation on how they want to handle that. They also gave you these flirt options with Acina and Malcom (more so Acina eludes to things not being able to happen right now where malcom kind of shuts you down altogether.) So i thought maybe she'd be a romance/fling. I heard the story going forward is going to be Empire vs Republic again, so the big names I feel are definitely going to reappear. Overall, its just weird to consider that these characters "live" in certain PTs but also are never seen or heard about again is odd to me lol. Not that I'm complaining, especially if the story going forward is good and i do love seeing nuances like that in RPGs. It must being something for the writers to juggle .

Hi guys, I was just curious on what you guys thought about all the big named characters dying through story arcs or class stories. I just finished the Nathema conspiracy for the first time on my SW. (minor spoiler) Darth Ravage appeared as my last "victim" before the final boss. I know that depending on your choices and classes it changes, but I'm wondering what you all think about these characters that are supposed to hold weight in the galaxy being interchangeable in this way. How will it effect the story down the line? Say on other characters, do you think someone like Darth Ravage/Mortis/etc will end up appearing in any way that is significant down the line? Or will they just fall into the backdrop of not really addressing them? I'm mostly curious because Bioware is weaving a complex web of having these nuances in story, it makes me wonder how they'll fit voice actors, and changes in scenes or dialogue.
