HK-51 Comes To The Old Republic

[Irridium]

Wait, when did HK-47 take control of the droid army? Ugh... This is my problem with KOTOR 2. None of it makes any sense by the end. And not in the philosophical "what is real" Inception kind of way. In the ridiculous, unfinished mess kind of way.

And YES, I got the damned restored content mod.

You had a choice at the end. You could either destroy them along with the HK-50's, or control them and make your own private army.

Keep in mind that factory was on a different planet than the one in the trailer. In KOTOR 2 the factory was on Telos IV; this one is clearly stated to be on Belsavis

Which either means HK-47 still has his own private army of HK-51s and the players just happen to get a different HK-51 or Bioware decided that they didn't like Obsidian's storyline and ditched it completely for whatever reason.

Given how much they retconned the canon from Kotor2 to TOR I'd assume its the latter.

 

[Deadyawn]

Wait, but I destroyed all the HK-51's in Kotor 2 as HK-47, along with the HK-50's which helped HK-47 get over his rage of losing his individuality after figuring out he'd been copied and that these copies have been running around the galaxy, which ended up growing him as a character and making him more sympathetic and philosophical and-

Oh, right. Non-cannon. Never mind.

*sigh*

Personally, I turned them into my own private army. I mean, who wouldn't want an army of (slightly inferior) assassin droids who also happen to be hilarious? I would have to alter their speech protocols to cease referring to organics as such but I can't imagine that would be difficult.

You know, it'd be one thing if this was the HK factory on telos being discovered but what it actually is is bioware completely ignoring the existence KOTOR2 even if it was vastly superior to its predecessor and creating an even more warped continuity.

At least its the same voice actor.

Pretty sure Revan is a little more memorable than an optional companion.

Or maybe there was more than one factory.
