was kreia that good of a character to warrant such a long video essay?

>>3998626
Autists can do hour long essays for anything and it is not indicative of quality or lack thereof.

>>3998626
By video game standards sure

longform video essays are really about monetization and engagement. people who fear the inside of their heads treat them as background noise during gaming, studying, or even sleep. the point is to pad the video time, to drone on as long as possible because the people clicking are looking for a long video. the subject is almost irrelevant.

Kreia was based because she's (still) one of the few characters in games to give any life to the "karma" bullshit forced on games when it never has any real fucking meaning. (HEY THIS MEANS YOU, MASS EFFECT)
She actually calls you out on doing shit just because its "bad" or "good" in direct response to the stupid gameplay prompts in speech choices.
While sometimes people get annoyed with her responses, thats the fucking point. You're annoying with your choices.
>>
>>3999155
Sadly not, and never will. Grey Jedi would be such a great concept for a game especially an rpg not that I want Disney to even know those are a thing.

The butthurt that Kreia caused in moralfags, falsely seeing her as an Ayn Rand type, is hilarious. It exposed how they need reinforcement for their behaviour, there's no innate goodness in them.

Dude, Star Wars is fantasy wizards in space meets WW2 bomber flicks. There is no complex philosophy, it's "holding onto hate will rot you from the inside". The extent of the nuance is "Han shot first".
>If they had their way we'd still be stuck with Saturday morning cartoon morality and the Disney trilogy's masterful
>>le heckin brown rebels vs space nazis
You don't get from the OT to the Disney garbage without years of (((subversion))) in the meantime. Kreia was absolutely a stepping stone along the way, you're just too retarded to notice. Probably a zoomer who grew up watching the prequel trilogy.

she's a brutal takedown of the Jedi/Sith binary your brain is too smooth to process.

Your

>>3999930
>ressentiment
>mogs them entire OT premise
First of all, you're absolutely embarrassing yourself.
Secondly, I was clearly citing "Han shot first" as an example of how little nuance there is in Star Wars, in contrast to your post. For you to respond "Lmao imagine unironically defending 'Han shot first' as the peak of Star Wars philosophy" in a post pointing out the lack of philosophy or nuance in Star Wars indicates that you aren't even reading or thinking about what is said.
Third,
>Kreia isn't 'subversion for subversion's sake', she's a brutal takedown of the Jedi/Sith binary your brain is too smooth to process. The Force as a parasite? Jedi as self-righteous cancer?

>>
>>3999937
>Han shot first as example of little nuance
>you aren't even reading
I read it fine. That's precisely the low bar I'm contrasting against.
Star Wars started as pulp space fantasy with WW2 aesthetics and a simple hero's journey, ok sure. But acting like that sets the permanent ceiling of no complex philosophy, the extent of nuance is Han shot first is exactly the limited take Kreia exists to dismantle. KOTOR2 proved the setting could handle genuine philosophical depth, and Kreia is the centerpiece of that.
She doesn't just add flavor: she tears into the foundations.
>The Force as a parasitic entity puppeteering the galaxy through endless conflict
>The Jedi as arrogant, self-righteous dogmatists whose balance and detachment repeatedly doom everyone
>The Sith as pathetic slaves to their passions
That's not stepping stone or random subversion, it's a direct philosophical challenge to the black and white morality and chosen one tropes the OT runs on. It exposes the limitations without erasing the fun adventure roots.

That was their intent but they failed at it and that's the actual problem with her

Her critiques mean nothing once you realize she does it for every choice and regardless of your alignment or previous choices made. She's the NPC equivalent of a stopped clock and all the discourse surrounding her is marveling at the one minute of the day she got it right

>once you realize she does it for every choice and regardless of your alignment or previous choices made. She's the NPC equivalent of a stopped clock and all the discourse surrounding her is marveling at the one minute of the day she got it right
I would wager that a majority of the anons posting in this thread have not actually played KOTOR 2, and have at most watched youtube "video essays" about it.
>>
>>4000443
>Her critiques mean nothing once you realize she does it for every choice and regardless of your alignment or previous choices made
She doesn't. She approves of certain choices.
Like refusing the wookie's strength as a dark sider, I think most people haven't seen that cutscene. You directly refuse a permanent STR upgrade.
>>
>>4000443
>That was their intent but they failed at it and that's the actual problem with her
The problem is with the influence system not with Kreia
>>
>>4000481
She also likes it when you force persuade a guy on Dantooine into telling you what he knows and then forgetting he saw you, when you tell both Khoonda and the mercenaries that you're going to help, when you tell the sick guy on Nar Shaddaa to kill himself and some other things I forgot.
Kreia as le pleasable contrarian is a meme by people who only saw the beggar scene on youtube and didn't play the game.

Good job missing the point so thoroughly and then posting about it as if you were teaching a class. Well done.

Many such cases
>>
>>4000709
What's correct about her plan? She is simply bitter about her students making their own decisions and can't accept that. Her entire plan was simply to get revenge , something she herself would chastise you for. There is no deeper meaning behind it.

>>4000819

If you’re expecting accountability and self-reflection from a woman, anon, you may be waiting for a while.

She’s literally telling you to stop being a mindless zealot who lets the Force (or dogma) dictate everything. Broaden your mind, make your own choices; that’s her whole deal, and it includes rejecting easy power like the Wookie’s strength or siding with Czerka over the Ithorians.
Was she bitter and out for payback? Absolutely, the game doesn’t hide that. But boiling her down to just revenge ignores how she wants the galaxy free from the Force’s manipulation. Her plan had teeth beyond personal grudges.
>>

...Talking? Surely it gets tiring being such a hateful and cynical loser all the time.
>>
>>4001080
You're *this* close to getting it, anon.

She has an undeniably good and strong philosophy and motivation. That is exactly why it's so fucking aggravating that she undermines her plan, her philosophy, and her own success by being annoying and difficult about irrelevant bullshit.

She spends all game pushing you away even if your actions support her philosophy. Instead of being a teacher, or a master manipulator, or a 5th dimensional chess player, she comes across as a bitter dumbass who is mad if you donate money to the poor and is also mad if you don't. By the time she gets to her really big ideas you either don't care or are already irritated at her.

The actual, correct way to do Kreia is almost the exact opposite of what they did: have her support nearly every decision you make regardless of alignment until you started to get too extreme. She should have been your biggest supporter - until she wasn't.

She is not mad at you for doing that. It's a teaching opportunity for her and if you say you will learn from it, she is pleased with you. It's your refusal to see it as morally good or morally wrong that annoys her. She wants you to predict the possible consequences of your actions.
>That is exactly why it's so fucking aggravating that she undermines her plan, her philosophy, and her own success by being annoying and difficult about irrelevant bullshit.
The problem with Kotor 2 is that you don't actually have that many dialogue options to choose from, so Kreia constantly comes off as patronising and annoyed with you. What could have saved these interactions was if the game had specific high wisdom dialogue options.
Right now it's something like this:
>Thing happens
>Kreia scolds you
>"Okay master, I will learn" Kreia approves
>"Nah, I refuse to learn" Kreia disapproves

If it was instead this:
>Thing happens
>Kreia scolds you
>"Okay master, I will learn" Kreia approves
>"Nah, I refuse to learn" Kreia disapproves
>[18 Wisdom passed] "You are right, my philosophy evolved today because of blah blah blah..." Kreia approves
>[18 Wisdom passed] "You are completely wrong because blah blah blah..." Kreia approves
Then the writing and Kreia would be unanimously lauded. I think we would have gotten something close to this if the game had another 2 years of development time.
By the way, most of Kotor 1 dialogue options are similarly retarded which is doubly jarring because you are supposed to play as a charismatic master strategist. Only Korriban post-reveal dialogues show some hint of that.

>such a long video essay
2 hours is nothing in terms of SW Lore. Are you unaware Episode 1 has a 12 hour youtube analysis? I tried watching this Kreia vid after approximately 99 hours of no sleep and surprise surprise it put me to sleep, ended up having a nightmare in which me and 3 squadmates were battling the Egyptian Sphinx once again. The prize being 1 wish VS. our death as the penalty. His riddle mentioned something about an exiled Jedi facing a starving panhandler upon landing on the Smuggler's Moon, and how he might choose his words carefully to avoid the wrath of his bitchy Sith Master. Without even consulting my team I instantly looked that foreign monstrosity in the eyes and answered he should simply state that True Jedi carry zero credits. I forget what fucking happened next. I'll rewatch the video later and post a report ITT

Did Avellone ever comment on precisely what indignities Kreia had to endure at the hands of the Sith Triumvirate? Is it safe to assume Darth Scion used his lightsaber to remove her nipples and clitoris whilst Darth Nihlus forced her to eat them before they filled her vagina with a radioactive mixture of cement and bantha poodoo and sodomize her with the Force or something?

From what I've seen, typically no. It's the 30min-45min ones where there's a larger grey area of grifters that have nothing to say but can use AI scripts and copy/pastes from wikis but still put's more effort into the video than you're typical normie that want's internet money

No I'm making choices because I spoke to an NPC and I can't get out of the conversation without picking something. All the choices piss her off. Did you not play the game? It's pretty good I really recommend it, even if Kreia is a failed character
>>
>>4004482
One thing you'll notice on a replay is that early game K-dawg is written quite a bit differently. She's more nuanced and teacher-like, eager to convince you even if she's blunt about it

But then it changes and it becomes the Kreia that people bitch about. I think it's because a) the game was notoriously rushed and unfinished, and b) there is no way to stop her betrayal or join her, so maybe they thought it'd be less jarring if she was more unreasonable and stupid

I think 95% of the debates of her are between people who remember the first 10 hours of the game more than the next 30.
>>
>>4004636
>"we" get it, you never played the game and just watched ecelebs get mad on youtube about it, cool.
Retard, I played the game when it came out, which was before there even was a Youtube.
We're at the terminal stages of two+ centuries of Judeo-Masonic subversion to demoralize (literally) Western civilization.
The first step is to turn people away from objective morality rooted in God, a positive polarity that exists greater than, and separate from, man. Demonizing the eternal virtues is part of this.
Next, man is rendered rootless, floating, neutral. This makes him malleable, devoid of an objective framework. When everything is subjective and relative, he is easy to reshape and form by the wicked.
Finally, reorienting man towards the negative polarity, an inversion of God's order. Every virtue is cast down, mocked and ridiculed (even the concept of virtue or truth), while every vice and sin is raised up and praised. Man is turned against his own kind, his own culture, his own civilization. An autoimmune disorder.
Go ahead and take a wild fucking guess where a bunch of leftoid Californian game devs are in this process.

Okay wtf? I don't get it. Either I'm a legit retard or every time I watch OP's vid I'm too sleepy too hungry too drunk or all of the above to grasp the overall message. I posted that after winning a drinking contest with a black African-American negro hitman with connections to my state's local mafia which could pay off longterm then watched the video after the victory. Basederinos? Cool? The additional connections could pay off in the long term but I tried lecturing the World's greatest collection of loyal Dogs the message of OP's vid centered around Kreia's quote "TO BELEIVE IN AN IDEAL MEANS YOU HAVE THE BALLS TO BETRAY IT" or whatever. But they took it too far! I'm impressed with their ability to understand complex ideals spoken in the English language but damn it was misinterpreted! Resulting in pure fucking anarchy! I guess it is little wonder why Kreia is one of the most racist characters ever in the entire Star Wars Universe exclusively taking Human apprentices freely voicing her outright disgust of the Zabraks, Aliens, space Dogs, Wookies and etc you can name any non-Human race she HATES it within reason
>>
FUCKING SHIT playing Kotor 2 as a black man exile or black chick exile should officially be considered an exploit OF THE LORE! She'd realistically deny a black Jedi exile tutorship as early as Peragus. What an interesting conundrum whathow with she ignores what she preaches about betraying her own racist idealism to work towards her own values

>While sometimes people get annoyed with her responses, thats the fucking point. You're annoying with your choices.

That would make sense if the character wasn't often scripted to scold you no matter what choice you make.
The only choices she approves of, is being a deceptive and manipulative backstabber like she is.

She's the ultimate fedora-tipper with delusions of enlightenment.
>>
>>3999910
>she's a brutal takedown of the Jedi/Sith binary your brain is too smooth to process.

The character is an old failure, crashing out that she wasted her life making bad choices, and is trying to justify her tantrum by blaming it all on the Force.

If you were going to do a full breakdown of all of Kreia's interactions and the philosophical meaning derived from it, then you probably could make a multi-hour video essay on her.
She's very unlike the rest of the Star Wars universe characters, and there's a lot to discuss.

But if we're being honest, you can easily cut down the multi-hour video essay to like 25 minutes, without losing anything important.

>It was judeo-masonic subversion to abolish morality
You missed the point entirely then.
Her advice is reasonable on the surface: don't give in to your knee-jerk impulses but rather consider the second and third order consequences of your actions before acting, don't show off your power level before you're fully prepared or you will attract unwanted attention, don't give in to your psychotic urges. Be manipulative rather than a blunt object. Convince people to solve their own problems instead of doing it for them or manipulate them into acting for your benefit. It's reflected in your manipulating your companions into being Jedi whether they love you or hate you.
Here's the thing: Kreia was lying to you from minute one. The evidence that she was lying starts to present itself before you leave Peragus. Her story doesn't match what the droids say, and it doesn't match what the logs on the Republic ship say. That's not bad writing. She's manipulating you and using you to get revenge. On the Jedi, not the Sith. She lied about Sion betraying her, she betrayed him. She is the one who was actually cut off from the force by the council, where-as you just cut yourself off from it. She's using you to get her powers back, not the other way around. Even considering that her advice is not unreasonable, if you do what she suggests, if you take her early advice and avoid moral extremes, you arrive at Malachor and the end game considerably weakened compared to if you fully embrace the light or the dark.
>>
Realistically speaking, Kreia is the best written female character in all of video games, and the second place goes to Kreia's spiritual predecessor, Ravel from Planescape: Torment and her multiple iterations across Forgotten Realms.

There are no sexy and/or cute girls that can compete with hags.

You're talking about real life (demoralizing western civilization) vs within the game (trying to weaken and demoralize the hero).
You sound like one of those 80s televangelists preaching against the evils of D&D or warning your kids against summoning the powers of Darkness like Skeletor does.
Kreia is the villain of the game. And she is an interesting villain.

>Because they were rushed to have it release for Episode 3.
Source? Have never heard that claim. It’s plausible but they came out six months apart which is a pretty big gap.
>>
>>4010811
Sure, I did too with the first 3, doesn't prevent me from understanding it as intellectually and philosophically vapid.
>>
>>4011006
Obsidiots have a prepared excuse for every botched release Obsidian has done.
It is NEVER their fault.
>>
>>4011008
They also had the advantage of the engine and many assets already being made by Bioware and still couldn't finish the game. While having the audacity to claim that they were rushed.
>>
>>4011235
all of them are at fault here
obsidian for having too big of an ambition for such a short deadline project
lucasart for giving such a short deadline in the first place
game turns out great despite the shortcoming
>>
>>4010845
Yeah, Lucas himself came out and said "there's only light and dark sides of the force, there's no mixing the two" even though Luke was clearly mixing the two in Jedi.
>>
>>4011006
>rushed to have it release for Episode 3
That's backwards. It was rushed so it wouldn't compete with Episode 3. In 2003, Lucasarts wanted a KOTOR sequel but Bioware was starting to work on their own property, so they floated the idea to Avalone before KOTOR 1 came out so he spent two months writing the sequel blind because they couldn't give him any information about the game without him signing on. Lucasarts signed him on in October 2003 and gave gave him 13 months to make the sequel to release in December 2004.
He asked for a three month extension that they agreed to, so it was going to release in February 2005. In the spring of 2004, a new CEO came in at Lucasarts and decided to revert the release to December 2004 because the agreement wasn't in writing and he didn't want it competing with any of the three Episode 3 tie-in games that were coming out between February and May of 05. (Revenge of the Sith, Republic Commando, and Battlefront II).
>>
>>4011235
There were a lot of changes to the engine between the two games and it wasn't just a matter of slapping new skins on like a mod.

Kreia tricked everyone who played the game pretty much. She's a sith through and through.

What's a sith?

You’ll have to play ultima 9 to find out

No, I know what a paladin is, as they have a meaningful description. In Star Wars sith seem to be very vague, with nothing much in common between depictions.
>>
>>4011576
>In Star Wars sith seem to be very vague, with nothing much in common between depictions.
Only a Sith deals in absolutes
>>
>>4011649
So people who think Kreia is a Sith are Sith?
>>
>>4011568
jedi but shit
>>
>>4011576
I think there's a quote in SWTOR saying "There are as many Sith philosophies as there are Sith"
>>
>>4011576
It depends on the time period we're talking about in SW but Sith are typically a group of dark siders who have a similar philosophy and oppose the jedi.

At their core Sith are basically force users that rely on emotion instead of discarding it.

This tends to lead to them using things like anger and fear because they're incredibly powerful, which leads to the biggest psychos being the most personally powerful.

They do use love though, in TOR Malgus kills his twilik waifu because she 'made him weak' and the resulting angst it causes him immediately grants him power on par with the strongest force users in the setting.
>>
>>4013207
But you can't discard emotion. Emotion informs logic, people with head trauma who lose their emotions become unable to think properly and make even simple decisions. Sounds like a flawed Western conception of Buddhism.
