Zergnaut Posted September 26, 2015 Share Posted September 26, 2015 (edited) I thought bioware said we couldn't join this new faction? Yet in the twitch Video you can Accept his offer and kneel or stand against him? Hmmm Edited September 26, 2015 by Zergnaut Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoahRedden Posted September 26, 2015 Share Posted September 26, 2015 You're kneeling to the emperor not a new faction. There is no new faction Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldVengeance Posted September 26, 2015 Share Posted September 26, 2015 (edited) They only said it was an important decision, not that you could actually join him. Edited September 27, 2015 by OldVengeance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet in the twitch Video you can Accept his offer and kneel or stand against him? Hmmm What we don't know is what comes out of those choices. Maybe he'll just laugh at you when you kneel and call you a coward...who knows? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BenitsubasaChiyo Posted September 26, 2015 Share Posted September 26, 2015 (edited) Here's a wild theory: you accept Valk's offer, Arcann loses his crap and proceeds to stab his big baddy daddy with a lightsaber from behind and then throws you into carbonite afterwards. I would assume something similiar happens even if you refuse Valkorion's offer. Keep in mind that in Chapter 3 someone mentions that Arcann assassinated Valkorion Then again, there's a whole Chapter 2 in between, so who knows Edited September 26, 2015 by BenitsubasaChiyo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sentientomega Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 someone mentions that Arcann assassinated Valkorion IF that's true: Valkarion probably transferred essence to Arcann right as he did that... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MSpectre Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 (edited) I know deep down they're BSing about 'choices mattering', this is EA after all.(See Mass Effect 3) Kneel or Refuse the same scene will play out I bet. Expect emails as 'meaningful' consequences. I can't wait for the disappointment frankly. Edited September 27, 2015 by MSpectre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every decision affects influence with the various companions in the game now, to the point of them leaving so bioware says. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pietrastor Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 Every decision affects influence with the various companions in the game now, to the point of them leaving so bioware says. Some will sure, but I can bet anything Lana won't leave no matter what you do. She's the new Miranda and will essentially lead the entire long story arc, maybe together with Theron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AshlaBoga Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 Here's my prediction: If you choose to kneel Arcaan kills him, if you refuse to kneel you weaken him and Arcaan delivers the coup de grace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rotgutus Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 The Devs have said there are only the two factions, Empire and Republic, available in KOTFE. You can find the quote in the dev tracker. That said you may be able to join the emperor the same way the agent can join the republic. That said my guess is Marr, who isn't dead (yet at least), attacks the emperor before you can answer. Only my guess though, and its mostly based on the story having to justify your carbonate nap. I'm excited to see what actually happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr_underhill Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 (edited) My guess. You chose the kneel option ... and cue the end credits. Remember your choices matter. If you Actually joined Valkorion there wouldn't be much of a story now would there. Edited September 27, 2015 by mr_underhill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dscount Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 I agree - you end up a paper weight (Han Solo Brick) either way. Only "Choice" I think would be potentially saving or losing Marr as a permanent companion. Something crazy I'm sure happens during this event due to the "HYPE", but in the end you are a paper weight.

But seriously I think this entire expac is going to backfire considering the lack of info from Bioware. Doesn't mean I don't have a slight bit of hope, I'm hoping it is good, but so far I'm not convinced. Graphics look awesome though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sacrifice a night of eating out for a night of complaining on swtor.com While this technically applies to me, I just really enjoy current SWTOR but I'm just growing more uncertain about KotFE and voicing my opinion, I'm not meaning to whine. If it's great then awesome! But at this point, from what I've seen/heard and with the lack of info from Bioware I just think it's probably going to disappoint me, if it doesn't disappoint I'll eat my head tails!

I suspect any amount of info would be too little in the eyes of the chronically dissatisfied. Because it would be "Yeah, they told us that, but I want to know this."

I suspect any amount of info would be too little in the eyes of the chronically dissatisfied. Because it would be "Yeah, they told us that, but I want to know this." My bad, what I mean by "lack of info" is about key mechanics changes like crafting, how stat merging is going to affect it and why so many unneeded changes? (e.g commendation name changes, stat merging) Lets face it Bioware hasn't exactly been excellent at giving the players info that is important considering we're a month away from KotFE being released, just look at the responses to the thread that Eric Musco created about discussing data mined info, if that isn't telling then I don't know what is.
