2003 to be specific. I loved the art itself, but I felt there was a ton of unexplored potential at how they could convey that this was a 4000 year old start wars. Did they use gunpowder weapons? Did they not invent repulser-lifts yet? Instead the everything was basically how it is in the movies. It's not a strike against the game though. Hindsight is 20:20 and this sort of more radical departure from the Star Wars brand look probably wouldn't sell, so I don't blame them.
Yeah, I was hoping they'd at least reference Revan in Rebels ugh.

yeeeeaaahhh idk
the things that you mentioned kinda makes me think of the Great Hyperspace War, which was like..20,000 years before KotOR... I don't think the Jedi were even fully formed then, and the Sith was kinda a new thing too... might've been just a species, not a belief... right?
You should prolly pay attention to the lore before you start thinking about the technology like that.
And anyway... something more clever than the movies... KotOR is the reimagining of the Original Star Wars movies. HURRAY for "I am Revan" instead of "Luke I am your FATHER" LOLOLOL
KotOR 2 is the deconstruction of the Star Wars movies...
Have you ever played it? The tone is COMPLETELY different... and omg all the themes... not to mention, Kreia is probably the best Star Wars villain EVER.

1. Well, it's a new canon, so I have an empty sandbox, you know? Except I refuse to call Korriban "Moriband". Why did they change the name ;_;. I thoroughly believe the story can be implemented into the new canon with no problems, and it also gives me a chance to wrap some plot elements into foreshadowing the events of the the trilogies. And without all the history there, it gives me a chance to be more expressive with KOTOR's world design. I'll be exploring these in further deviations.
2. Yes, I need to play KOTOR 2.
